November 2008
Importing into iTunes a recently found cache of nearly 75 CDs collected from 1998-2007 is a perfectly reasonable thing to be doing for an entire afternoon, right?
And p.s., you know Rick Steves is the bomb ass hipster travel god. He tells you how to say “I need to vomit” in Italian.
Foods I cook with most often:
I am never without the following:
olive oil
garlic
crushed red pepper
hot sauce/sriracha
onions
potatoes
bacon
parmesan cheese
eggs
beer & wine
cilantro
jalapenos
beans
pasta
anchovies
lemon juice
vinegar
butter
From this, I create multitudes.
Don't forget to eat your veggies
Vegetables are even harder to fit into the equation than meats are. When the hell does an eggplant “expire”? I mean, I know it can get brown and denty, but I find that the brown and denty vegetables are often as tasty as the green, firm ones (ok, at least when it comes to eggplant. It’s very dense!).
Ok, so let’s figure out how to cook the following in one week: eggplant,...
I just got a pile of meats from TJ’s.
One 1-pound pork tenderloin.
2 pounds boneless skinless chicken thighs.
One package (1.5 pounds) pork tenderloin chops.
One pound tilapia.
All of which have expiration dates circa: this week, and must be prepared to satisfy two: hungry people who are “trying to eat healthy”.
It’s a wonderful sort of science experiment, cooking.
my ticket to stardom!
I actually kind of wonder if I could get into a better business school than Julia Allison. You know, as an internet lark!
Dear Angelenos,
This weather: am I right???
god it feels good outside — crisp, clear, warm but not too warm. The rains from earlier this week have passed, but the air is still so cool and refreshing. It’s getting cold* enough at night that you have to snuggle up with your lover bunny, but you can still leave the windows open to breathe in the freshness…I could take about six more months of...

More or less Thanksgiving:
britticisms:
a late dinner, debates on gay marriage and the proposed high school for gay students in the city (with most of my family surprisingly moving towards my side once I finally got a word in), bowls full of my father’s peach cobbler - the peaches surprisingly fresh and the crust perfectly light - and a couple of rounds of Wii bowling.
My father just now learned what Wii is while...

M83 and I have more in common then I thought! →
hydeordie:
I got my email of M83’s secret playlist from Lost At E Minor and we have 4favorite songs in common:
Tears for Fears/ Head Over Heels
Kate Bush/ Running up that Hill
The Blue Nile/ Let’s Go Out Tonight
Iron Maiden/ Two Minutes to Madness
Ok, so that Iron Maiden song isn’t one of my favorites so it’s more like 3.5 because I like Iron Maiden too. This all makes me very happy.
