Trader Joe's has tiny veggie meatballs? Maybe we don't have them here. (They do have normal-sized veggie meatballs.)
I don't like them very much. They taste like...carrotburger or something. Not the right flavor. I like the turkey meatballs.
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Good tip on the stock, David. Is that from TJ's?
Totally random question, prompted by a conversation with a friend -- is there a white TV show family with several kids, all of whom have dark hair? Every white TV show family we could think of were either all blond kids (even if the parents both had dark hair) or some blond and some brown-haired kids, but we couldn't think of any TV family with several dark-haired kids and no blond ones.
On Dexter, Cody and Astor are both dark-haired. Harrison could be blond, but he's a baby so it's hard to tell.

I'm polishing up the proposal for the second GCS book. My agent said I should include site stats and talk about what I've been doing since the first book came out, because the more ammo my editor has to take to the publishing board, the better. So Pete and I sat down, looked at my site stats, and did some math.
My average hits per month are 1,333,32. That's ... a lot of people. Ima gonna have a tiny freak-out now, don't mind me.
Wow! Nice!
Then I cheated and added some of the Pacific Natural Foods organic French Onion soup. About half a cup. It's a vegetarian stock but it's really rich and dark. This has been a real find for me when I've needed a good veggie substitute for beef stock.
Great tip. I will have to add that to my pantry.
Woo, Jilli!
My neighborsare grilling and now I want a tasty burger. I think I've got bison burgers in the freezer, maybe that will do. Also, the house is a total wreck and I have zero desire to do any cleaning. Hrmph.
Oh, Hec. I think you will appreciate the mouseover panel.
My soup is amazing. And it took me all day, what with the veggie stock making. (That's a feature, not a bug, in my book.)
Chopped and sauteed two leeks in butter and olive oil for about 15 minutes, then added a couple of pounds of potatoes and about six cups of veggie broth, along with some salt and pepper. Pureed, then added a half a shredded cabbage and a handful of chopped (cooked) bacon. Cooked for another five or ten minutes then added a handful of parsley and a shot of sherry.
