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.

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.

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.

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday Laura!

I'm sorry for your loss, amyth.

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.

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!!

Oh, no, ChiKat! I hope the car is working soon, and not expensively!

I just got done with my interview for my class this weekend. I had to interview a top manager at a large public library system, and I was able to contact the head of the Milwaukee one and set up some time to talk to her. We chatted for 75 minutes, and she gave me tons of info! And, I was able to help her out some (I asked her about diversity in the community, she said that she's been disappointed at the non-diversity in the pool of available professionals looking for jobs, and I told her about a service my local library has called the Language Line, where a librarian who has a patron he/she can't communicate with can call a service that has a translator available on the other end of the phone, and I gave her the library's phone number and name of the director there for her to call about the service). She seems like she'll be a great source if I need one in future classes, and maybe someone to contact after getting my degree when I'm job hunting!

Now I've got figure out how to whittle this down to a 10-minute presentation and pick one subject out for a 3-5 page paper.

Kathy, have you ever used prezi? My favorite type of presentations are done on prezi. I'm a convert.
