Mmmm, Trader Joe's has a roasted pepper soup that would actually work as sauce. (I know because their sample last week was the roasted pepper soup saucing tortellini.) That would be nice.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

You absolutely can. I just roast them in a hot oven, but it's the same effect. I halve them or quarter them and deseed first, because tomato seeds are nasty.

Eta: and you don't really need to put them in a paper bag to steam, the skins just slip right off as soo as you care to handle them

because tomato seeds are nasty.

I need to trot down to the Civic Center Farmer's Market on Wednesday and get some of my favorite dry-farmed tomatoes there. They're small, firm, extremely flavorful and have very little jelly or seeds.

These recipes all would be better if you removed the actual egg from the equation.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

This looks like a job for the buffistas!

I don't even know where to begin with that, but it looks amazing.

I'm not a big fan of dill, ordinarily, but Hec's recent experiments have been shockingly (like, lick-the-bowl) delicious.

All sorts of vibes to Barb's kids and HULK-SMASH~ma to whoever ends up speaking to Incompetent!Weaselly!Agent's boss and delivering total smiteage.

And migraine-and-period-coping~ma to Zen and Pix and anyone else who needs it, and eyeball~ma to Todd, and a million other ~mas to everyone else, and now I have to go again because the new job continues to kick my ass. In a good way, since I can't even remember how long it's been since I last used this much of my brain at work, but still in a massively timeconsuming way.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Mom and I went shopping today because I wanted some things that would pack easily for going to the UK in the fall. I bought this

this

And this

And I didn't end up paying anywhere near full price for any them.

Thanks, Barb! I have been drooling over it online for quite some time.

oomphectomy

Is that a thing, or just that you forgot what goes before "ectomy"?

I apologize for the TMI, y'all.

I posted pictures of the fibroids that had been removed from my body. I don't think that we recognize the concept. BTW, when I showed the pic to my PCP, his response was "OH MY GOD"

These recipes all would be better if you removed the actual egg from the equation.

Amen. I'm not a huge fan of eggs without a carpet of cheese, but runny eggs? shudder.
