What is Carrier? I've seen a few people mention it...
Vortex is SMART! I will go late. Especially cause it starts at 8pm and it's 7:30 and I am not ready to go. Excellent plan.
You don't like quinoa, ita? I love quinoa. Mostly for the texture, I don't think it tastes, particularly. Though I haven't tried the red quinoa I bought the other day.
Carrier is documentary series running 5 days on PBS about life on the USS Nimitz. Alternates between fucking infuriating and terribly sweet.

I don't think I've gotten the right fluff yet. With all of those grain-steaming recipes it takes me a few goes to get the right texture. Taste--I'm not thinking there's much of that.
I miss my couscous.
dang y'all, now I want a martini.
ita for me the hardest part of the gluten-free diet was the no bread, no pasta (especially since I still was making pasta for Frances a couple times a week). I did find that a lot of quick breads and muffins could be made gluten-free no problem, but I missed the nice yeasty loaf of bread.
Citrus vodka, a splash of real lemon juice, sparkling water over ice. Garnish with lemon or lime.
That sounds fab. I should start drinking more soda water.
I totally found my new nerd buddy, in the form of my friend's husband's coworker! We were at the TAL screening, and her other friend was like, what else you got? And she was like, Well, Paula Poundstone will be here in a couple of weeks... I was all, I like her on Wait, Wait! And of course she does, too.
mac's afterschool is doing a fundraising thing and I wouldn't normally bother, but this is Yankee Candles and I know some people here like candles, so if you want info on it - e me. There are also some flower bulbs for the garders.
I'm getting through no bread by ingesting untoward amounts of popcorn--at least 1/4 cup unpopped a day. I got some rice flour pasta at Wholefoods. It's passable. Grainy aftertaste, though.
Dammit. Now I want more popcorn.
Watching the pilot episode of Remington Steele. Mr. Steele has just been "born." Nicely done. Good times, good times.
Aw.
Season 1 was the best. Because of Murphy, who I still have a soft spot for.
my Manhattans are rum. Becuase that is what my grandfather drank - and the entire family, even the nondrinkers ( white zin is not a drink) drank them. and a neighbor ( a year older than me - so 40ish) sid she felt like such a grownup - because my grandfather made it only for the gorwnups.
though generally I am to lazy too make them so I just drink dark rum on the rocks.
Martini's ( of course gin) - only by our neighbor F. because he makes them how I like them. and I usually can't walk after dinner at F and J's.
G&T are the way to drink gin and I want them tall with extra lime.
margaritas - real lime juice and blue cureso (which I have no idea how to spell)
other than that I tend to stick to wine
