My cat loves to lick the Ben & Jerry lids, and she also loves cheesecake.
I'm taking the full day off of work tomorrow--yay! I have to call maintenance in the morning, after I do some quick cleaning before letting anyone into this place.
In class tonight, the teacher showed us RefWorks, which is a great website to help organize citations. They have a download that will put your references into place, either in parenthesis within the text of the paper or as a footnote, as well as automatically put all of your citations into a bibliography. Very cool indeed!
She gave us several minutes to play with the website, and I decided to do some early searching for my final project (putting together a pathfinder on hominids). Problem is, I discovered at least one book if not more that I really want to add to my collection of books on early man. I don't need to buy anything else from Amazon, damnit!!
my cousin, the one who sent me that song, he owns his own business. successful business. he travels, does work with ranchers, dairy farmers - he invoices post the visits and he does it BY HAND! I think he is going to pay me some to set up a better system and do it for him on the fancy computer machine.
I would like some lasagne. Oh, well. I would also like some spaghetti with a good hearty meat sauce. I hate marinara sauce unless it's on cheese sticks or shrimp. sits back and waits for marinara sauce discussion
All the lasagne talk made me want pasta with a tangy red sauce for dinner. Fortunately, I had both in the pantry. (Trader Joe's gluten-free rice pasta is really really not bad. I'm impressed.)

I don't like red sauce on my cheese sticks.
Nom.
...OK, I'm watching SYTYCD, and there's this Usher performance and he's got these girls dancing in thigh high boots and leotards and they're all dancing around him, and suddenly I realize they all have long flippy stripper hair...except for one of them. Who looks JUST LIKE ita. SECRET BODYGUARD JOB?!!?
dinner for the past two nights - sweet potato curry with shrimp (based on squash curry at local thai resteraunt - pretty accurate recreation and good)
Sweet potato, onion, sweet peppers, cherry tomatoes, pineapple, a little broccoli for contrast. Sauce - unsweetened coconut milk, a little sugar, curry power, lightly sauted garlic (just sort of started, mostly to be cooked in sauce), wine, salt. Bring sauce to simmer, add sweet potatoes (peeled and cut in chunks). After sweet pototates have cooked about 15 minutes add everything except shrimp. When everything is cooked to taste, add shrimp and let cook until done (about three minutes). You could use any boullion or dry soup base instead of salt. Vegetarians and vegans could add some of the classic Vietmese Seitan flavored to taste like shrimp. Or any other kind of vegan protein source that curries well and has the right kind of flavor to contrast well with the other ingredients.
(Also now there's some Justin Bieber video premiere, and he's singing about needing someone to love, and it's the first time I've actually seen him in motion, and...good god. Why?? I mean, yes, he looks like a lot of the girls I date, but, DAMN. He's too young to need someone to love. And he's actually a 22 year old lesbian.)
That curry sounds good--red or white wine?
Oh, well. I would also like some spaghetti with a good hearty meat sauce. I hate marinara sauce unless it's on cheese sticks or shrimp.
What do you base your meat sauce with, if not tomato?
And he's actually a 22 year old lesbian.
He looks like an underage lesbian to me. Like, yes, sweetie, you want someone to love. But right now it's a misdemeanor. Just maybe wait a while...
