I'm still in my pajamas and trying to decide if I should get dressed and go see Iron Man today or wait and hope it will be less crowded tomorrow.
Natter 58: Let's call Venezuela!
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I managed to wake up earlier in time to take my meds on schedule, which is good. I guess I could maybe get out of bed in general too.
I didn't know what glatt meant, and googling took me here. I'm not aware of any other religions being not only that stringent in dietary rulings, but also--it's treated like law, with precedents, etc. Truly complex.
Okay. Getting vertical. Obtaining food, even.
I remembered I had leftovers from dinner last night (mac and cheese with peas and ham! mmm). So I still haven't had to leave the house...
I'm making tofu with spicy greens for dinner. The recipe is for tofu with watercress, but I got a bag of spicy greens at the farmers market, and I think it'll work well. Plus, I've got a package of tofu that's going to expire next week. Add some sauces and ginger and garlic and rice, and voila. Dinner.
Just realized I don't have paper towels. Maybe I can press the tofu without them.
Ooh, that sounds good, Hil.
Target trip went really well, I was not expecting that. I got several snack things for mac, he got 2 toys with a giftcard, and I got 2 organizey things for his existing toys (we are about to have a toy purge).
Now a friend is over for what I hope is a 2.5 or 3 hour playdate.
Popcorn.
I've been sorting through my pantry and realized I've got close to half a gallon of dried split peas, plus nearly as much of various kinds of lentils. Considering that about a cup makes a pot of soup, I think I don't need to buy any more legumes for a while. (I've also got random bits of other sorts of dried beans, mostly black beans and kidney beans, but the lentils and split peas are a bit overwhelming.)
French women have sex 120 times per year.
Huh.
And I have just been informed that Swedes are the most previous of sexual partners @ 64% having had one night stands. I was going to guess Australians, and they come in at 60%, so I guess I would have been close.
This Manswers show is pretty base, but sometimes I need my low opinion of humanity shored up.
Wait, why did I get vertical again?
Hil, if you are feeling adventurous - lentils are the base for a couple of Ethiopian dishes.
