Damn, I wish I was Drew. That was a much better dinner than I had.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

That's what I was thinking, vw. But since it looks like I'll be having yummy vegetarian Indian food, I'm not gonna complain.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

ooh that soup sounds good. Chunky or pureed?

Still better than my McD's cheeseburgers. I'm not gonna complain either, though. Just noting that it sounds really yummy.

Hey, any West Coasters gonna still be up at midnight your time? I need a wake-up call. I'm terrified I'm going to sleep through my alarm.

Pureed! And thanks for saying it sounds good, loves. Cooking is one of my favorite things lately--a true break from being in my head or on stage. I made pan-seared salmon with fresh tomato-basil relish and orzo with olive oil on Sunday night and Polynesian pineapple chicken (stir fry) and brown rice last night. Tonight chilled tomato-cucumber soup and honey pecan chicken...and I'm thinking maybe some new potatoes on the side.

They're all pretty simple recipes from a Weight Watchers Make it in Minutes book. They lie about the "minutes" thing, though. Unless they mean 60-90 minutes. I'm a really slow prepper, though, so I'm sure that has a lot to do with it.

Oh, Kristin! Will you marry me? We can get married here in MA!

I love to cook too, but just don't have a second of free time, or the energy these days.

Oo, you're right! But...then I'd have to move back to MA. It's chilly there. Maybe we can just have a long engagement?

I don't really have the free time, but I've made this my "me" time, if that makes sense, between school and homework.

I love cooking too, but these days I try to cook things that pass the toddler test, so nothing too fancy. Occasionally I get around to making a sauce for DH & me.

Sorry, vw, unless my night gets ugly I plan on being in bed by then, hopefully I'll be asleep too.

Oh crap, Beverly, I just caught up. {{{Beverly}}} Lots of ~ma to you.

pass the toddler test
Ah yes. That does make a huge difference. My friend Mer says that cooking for toddlers is like cooking for frat boys. She has two (toddlers, not frat boys).
