Stuff-in-dough is one of my favorite food categories!

Dumplings!!!!

God, I so want stuff in dough. Somehow my homemade pita sandwich is not going to cut it, even if it is, technically, stuff in dough.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Bao! I wish there were a place that made good bao in range of my office.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Mmm. Stuff in dough. Very possibly my very favorite food group ever; better even than the caffeine food group.

I'm so getting cookies after work today, y'guys. Because you made me want them.

Very possibly my very favorite food group ever; better even than the caffeine food group.

I can't decide between the stuff-in-dough group or the fried group as being my favorite. Put them together, though....

Stuff-in-dough sounds wonderful. Someone else making it for me sounds even better. I suspect that I'll be having a tuna sandwich for lunch instead. Still, tuna's good.

Oh, that would be the best. There's a bao stand at the Sunday farmer's market. I wonder if they have a restaurant too. Must investigate.

“Not dead yet!”

I had a deep fried artichoke as an appetizer for lunch one day last week. No batter, nothing, just the bad boy deep fried so each of its little petals fanned out and were delicate and crispy. With good olive oil and a little grated parmesan?

Mmmmm...

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

All this talk of putting things in dough has me all of the sudden craving Swedish pancakes. Cook up the batter nice and flat, butter it up, then spread jam or syrup all over and roll it up--yum!!

From xkcd: Upcoming Hurricanes

Hah! Love "Hurricane Illinois-Has-It-Too-Easy"!

On Sunday, my family and I were comparing regional natural disasters, with my brother contending that California is made up of nothing but potential catastrophes, but my stepmom saying it'd be worth it if she could live there (my stepsister lives near LA). We get tornadoes here in the Midwest, and my brother gets the occasional hurricane out in New Jersey, but as he pointed out, if you don't live on the coast, you're pretty much safe.
