oh good for feeling better.
I noticed when I left work that my eyes were really red, and now my throat hurts.
That means someone is going to give me money, or something else good, right?
Hey! What do you two think you're doing? Fightin' at a time like this. You'll use up all the air!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Money, sex, and chocolate.
I read that somewhere.
Re: Lost--I'm way over the device of pulling back and cutting audio to deliver bad news. I don't know if I liked it the first time I noticed it (on Buffy) because it was well done, or because it was first, but it's getting progressively more like a trick to me, and has less impact.

What about Bill Richardson from New Mexico?
Ack! Don't run Richardson; he's such a schmooze!
I really like Evan Bayh. But, you know, I'm not in your party, so it's not really up to me.
All I accomplished today was putting away the laundry. I hate the laundry. It's like the dishes, there are always more of them. The SO's been sick again, so I ended up doing the double session of classes alone this week. Which means I'm getting jack else done, and I really need to get ready for summer. The roommate's family is moving in next month, with a toddler, and I have a lot of cleaning up and ordering to do.
However, I have been having Good Food Days. Yesterday we had grilled mahi-mahi with tropical salsa over coconut rice. Today we had Molto Mario's Prosciutto al Forno (which is just baked ham, but oh so good) with spinach salad with strawberries, jicama, kiwi and honey poppyseed dressing.
eta: When is this hockey game going to end? My idea was to watch it and then watch the tivo'd Top Chef, but we're now almost halfway through the 2nd OT. I have to work tomorrow, peoples, work with me!

Yay.
I want Liese's food days.

I would like her food days without the ham and the jicama. Fruit in the salad rocks, though.

I like jicama. I almost never eat ham, but every once in a while, if it's made right and sliced thin, I like it.

If ham is made right, I think it's too salty for me.
I've never had jicama, I think. It's just not a fruit, and not spinach. Why waste space with it?
Okay, taking my tired body to bed.
I recommend kettlebell for people trying to increase their core strength, balance, and humility.
Fuck.

That's one of my criteria for it being made "right"-- it can't be that salty.

The ham was free, and from a local processor. Does that count for something?
The recipe called for a bay leaf, rosemary and fresh lemon juice rub, left on overnight. Then baked, basted with white wine (and grappa, but I skipped the grappa), and baked some more. It was really not very salty at all. It was a fresh ham, not cured, so there wasn't any residual salt to begin with.
I really liked the jicama. It was new to me.
I was also glad I'd eaten the fish before reading the alarming mercury studies.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I really liked the jicama. It was new to me.I love jicama. Slightly sweet, crunchy, a little starchy. Peeling it is a bitch. Delicious though.
