Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh msbelle, how aggravating.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

To kill two buffista questions in one, the only turkey burgers I make are Bombay Sliders. I made them when Slumdog Millionaire was nominated.

Sauce:
¾ cup mayonnaise
2¼ tsp curry powder
1½ tbsp yogurt
1½ tbsp ketchup
1 garlic clove, minced

2 lbs turkey
¼ cup mayonnaise
4 tsp curry powder
6 tbsp chopped cilantro
¼ cup minced green onions
2 tbsp minced ginger
2 tsp cumin
¾ tsp hot chili powder or Hungarian hot paprika
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp olive oil

12 small dinner rolls, cut horizontally in half, lightly toasted

--Mix first 5 ingredients together for sauce. Let stand at room temperature.
--Mix remaining ingredients together in large bowl just until blended; do not overmix. Divide mixture into 12 equal portions. Using wet hands, form each portion into a patty about ½-inch thick.
--Heat oil in large heavy skillet over medium high heat. Cover patties and cook until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side.
--Serve on toasted rolls with sauce, tomato, red onion, and/or cucumber slices.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So I finally gave in and got the queso I've been thinking about since the Super Bowl! I figure, if I avoid getting some kind of treat like that, but it stays in my head for weeks, I'd better just get it over with. In short: Yum.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

At the shop. Car was a dead thing after work. Custodian gave me a jump and came straight here. So glad I made it before closing.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

My DH is off to San Diego for a couple of days to drive Mazdas. As for me, I will sitting pretty tonight with California Pizza Kitchen frozen Sicilian pizza, a glass of wine, and Tivoed Criminal Minds.

Yuck, msbelle. I need to have my paperwork more organized than it is. It's all in one of 2 places, but it is ALL in one of 2 places, so I have to go through everything to find anything.

Survived working from home. It always makes me crazy, like I'm not doing enough, because I'm popping up to wash a dish or something, when in reality, I might be chatting about not!work with people for more time when at work.

Anyway, swim swum, going out to last-minute dinner and drinks with my soon to be ex-neighbors, who are moving to Cleveland tomorrow. We're gonna miss them.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

The paperwork is really only a mess because of the move, things got separated and then I needed some stuff really early because of new drs and schools and lots of that never got re-filed correctly. Then all the new paperwork with the new insurance which is a different pile.

Well I have gone through everywhere I can think of, and while I did not find the closing statements, I did find more things to claim on the taxes and I did pull out about 4" of papers to be shred.

Oh, thanks for reminding me to make sure I could put my hands on the tickets I'll need next week -- Good vs. Evil with Eric Ripert and Tony Bourdain!!
