Speaking of shuddering, I need to update my drawing challenge pic with a less crappy scan than the machine at work.
Does anyone know anything about the Da Vinci drama (not the coroner kind) coming on Starz? And does anyone know enough about actual Da Vinci to estimate the bullshit quotient?
Consuela, you definitely are playing the right cards for working your way into another job. I bow in your direction.
Today's lesson from reality-TV court shows: if you meet a man who is "working" as a drug dealer, don't have a six-year relationship and a child with him. Also, don't attack him with a box cutter.
Damn, all I got out of it yesterday was that if your car catches fire on your way to visit friends, do not park it in their driveway. Furthermore, if you do make the choice to bring fire onto another's property and it then spreads to the house, "I didn't set fire to my car on purpose" is not an adequate defence.
I just had a lesson I already learned reinforced today. Sigh. Never trust the instrument teams. Also, I can still read code well enough to figure out up from down. Ehn.
It's a scotch sort of night.
So, I decided to make carrot top and radish green pesto (substituting feta for half the parmesan and leaving out the pine nuts entirely because that's the way my pantry shook out)and it's pretty dang tasty! How about that?
What is the (please forgive me) essence that makes pesto pesto?
And, shit, I want to punch a fic-writer because her updates are ceasing to be enough in either quantity or frequency, but most importantly length.
Myself, I don't believe in all these non-traditional pestos. I mean, I'm sure they are delicious, but not pesto.
Oh, also, I have determined I enjoy pesto when it's cooked, so that's good.
A friend had a basenji and I loved him. But possibly only in contrast to her other evil devil dog.
Wiki says pesto means anything made by pounding, so probably anything herby/leafy with olive oil and some cheese? Otherwise you're looking at hummus and stuff.
I don't particularly like traditional pesto, but my SiL makes a chicken pesto pasta that's fantastic. The kids love it.
