I don't know, but can I come to your house for vegetables?

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Am I nuts in thinking I can puree them, add cream, and voila, cream of veggie soup?
Not nuts at all, that's a good solution. I'd want to tart it up with something contrasting and bright - some fresh herb like thyme.

Oooh, I have fresh thyme. So I can just blend/puree it all, add cream and fresh thyme and let simmer for a while? Sorry, but I've never made soup! I am a soup Philistine.

I'd puree it and maybe add a little liquid (veggie stock or something), and cook it down a bit. I'd add the cream later and stir it in towards the end, cooking just enough to get it to blend.. You don't usually want to cook down the dairy part so much. I'd top it with fresh thyme in the bowl right before serving, I think. It'd look good and would give the most contrast.

Hil, did your interview happen yet? If yes, how'd it go? If not, tons of Awesome-Math-Hire-Me~ma for you! Just think, you could be a Georgia Peach! (said with a big smile, because that's the only way to say Georgia Peach!)
It didn't happen yet. He said he would call me either between 1 and 2 on Monday, or sometime on Tuesday. He didn't call today, but he emailed me at 4 to ask for a copy of my transcript and email addresses of references, and he said he'd call tomorrow.

I tried using a cane instead of crutches today. Much easier to navigate the world with one hand free, but it also makes me feel lopsided, and it bothers my shoulder and hip more than the crutches do.

I don't know what to have for dinner. I'm hungry, but nothing seems like what I want to eat. My stomach doesn't feel great -- I think I may have been overdoing the fiber lately -- but I don't really have anything that seems like a calm-stomach food. I think my best bet might be some vacuum-packed gnocchi that I bought a while ago.
