Angel: He is dead. Technically, he's undead. It's a zombie. Connor: What's a zombie? Angel: It's an undead thing. Connor: Like you? Angel: No, zombies are slow-moving, dimwitted things that crave human flesh. Connor: Like you. Angel: No! It's different. Trust me.

Oh my gosh. Trader Joes has a new product, and I fear it is not unlike crack. Bake-for-yourself chocolate croissants. In the frozen section.
guh.
Franny ate the whole thing. Isaac picked out the chocolate and ate the top.

I'm still in a bit of a carbo coma.

We have two new TJ's in my town. I'm resisting going because omg Sunday at TJ's? Also, I spent $200 at TJs about six weeks ago, and that's just not on.
Trying to pack today for two trips: one to Alaska for 4 days for work, and then one to Joshua Tree for 2 days for fun. Erg? Too complicated for my brain!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I totally need a TJ's run. They are (have?) opened one in Queens (the borough where I live), but it's totally not subway-accessible -- I think to try to focus on the $200-a-trip shoppers! There's not so much of that in the Manhattan location where people are mostly carrying their stuff home.

Also, I have a really stupid cooking question. I have a steak, and some mushrooms, and a dry rub seasoning. Can I just put the seasoning on the steak ahead of time (how much), cook it in the cast iron skillet, and then saute the mushrooms in the same pan with butter? Or will that make weird flavors in the mushrooms? I could just broil the steak, too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have to teach first. Then maybe sleep. Whoops! Am late!

I'd season the steak for about 30 minutes, and cook the mushrooms in the same pan. If you're worried about the spices burning while the mushrooms are in there, just add some wine or stock & make a pan sauce at the same time.
ION, I think I need one of these. I love Eli the seltzer man, but we've been getting more and more dud bottles from him lately. Plus there's the carrying 10 glass bottles of seltzer up 4 flights of stairs every week.
