Is it too late to ask what people are doing this weekend?
Date with my TiVo tonight, tons of meetings, and writing.
I wonder what I should make for dinner. I am kind of tempted to make more of those cracktastically good potato wedges.
Excuse me? Who gave you permission to exist?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Jilli, there's an awful truth I fear I must tell you.

You've reminded me that I'd settled on a great breakfast potato recipe that was part ganked from some website part yanked from my head that I can no longer reconstruct because I lost the link. So I might as well start again from scratch. My main issue is that I have no microwave, so I need to make sure that the wedges are totally cooked through without being overcooked or boiled or fried.
I seem to recall that recipe boiling small red potatoes for 10-15 minutes before slicing them and frying them up with the tomatoes & peppers &c, but that didn't cook them consistently through enough.
Suggestions?

ATK the other day fried them in the pan until they got nice and golden, and then covered the pan and let them cook through that way.

Documentary about gays in the military in ten minutes (the theater is a block away). Then two stepping. Dinner somewhere in there.
Tomorrow, not sure in the daytime. Must CLEAN at some point, my house is heinous. Evening, some kind of random fiddle bluegrass concert thing at a place called the...Roadhouse? Tractor Tavern? Some crazy named place. A friend got the tickets.
No plans for Sunday. I"m hoping brunch, one of those days, with friends.

At what point did they put in the peppers and the other stuffs? Let me go hit up their web site.

You mean my co-workers have LIED to me, and it isn't exotic and exciting? Well crap.

Maybe it was for your own protection. I probably shouldn't have said anything. I'm so sorry.

The weather is going to be awful and warm too, isn't it? Hmmph.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, man. The local politician on the local news show talking about the crane collapse just said, "erection." In what sounded like a really well thought-out bit. They couldn't have re-worded that somehow?

I don't know if it would work, ita, but if it's a problem with them not being cooked through, maybe you could slice first and boil less?
