Yeah, I had trouble peeling it. Any tricks? 'Cause I was in a hurry and ended up only peeling the half I needed immediately, and I still think I did something to either my fingernail or my paring knife.

I was expecting the crunchy and starchy, but the sweet was a pleasant surprise.

In other news? That "Because daddy never hugged me/Because the more they love me the more I love myself" VW Passat commercial is creepifying and really upsetting.

Any tricks?

Alternately, I use a knife and take off thin slabs instead of a peeler trying to just remove the skin. You lose more of the jicama but it is faster.

Often it is served sprinkled with chili powder. Which is good. But I like it plain.

morning came to early today, but I wa only 20 minutes late in and have had meeting #1.

Meeting #2 should start at any moment.

le joy.

Re: House... I love Hugh Laurie's little details about having a cane. erikaj's talked about it before, I don't know in which thread, but he puts in little details, like using his cane to open doors and whatnot. We've seen how difficult it is for him to walk without it, yet the fact that it hit the floor when he ran in to get the baby is at once telling of House's true nature under the gruff AND of Hugh Laurie's attention to detail . It's possible that I have a House!crush. I think I'll need to rewatch, just to be sure.

Aille, I noticed that, too. Also, I want to say last week, when he was using the cane to throw the ball and catch it. Right up there with CJ doing "The Jackal" for "that's so cool. Wow must that actor have been bored to develop that skill." moments, which also works for House.

What's "The Jackal"?

Good morning! It's great to have no flexeril hangover.

Wow must that actor have been bored to develop that skill

Well, they've shown him juggling too, yeah? Plus, of course, the piano playing.

not enough GUH in the world

Timlies ita!

The Jackal is a song (I'm sure someone can remember the artist, as I do not), and it was apparently A Thing for CJ to lipsynch to it. They only showed it once, but the boys were all quietly agog.

Toby: "You're talking to me during The Jackal?"

God I'm such a Toby/CJ shipper.

Mmm.... salty ham. Yum. And I see that I was right to be afraid of buying jicama whole. But I do like it. Crunchy! Crunchy and salty are my two favorite food attributes.

Cut your losses, sell the FBs to someone who they'll fit, and stock up on things either aplix or side-snapping, because HOLY CARP, when they hit a year, they squirm like trapped ninjas!

Thanks, Plei! (I'm way behind here, but I'm already eyeing some bGs on eBay.)
