I'm making real beef stroganoff, with chopped onions and mushrooms and everything. I've cheated with meat cut up for stir fry and jarred minced garlic, but anything that gets me actually cooking is a good thing.

That's so sad, sara.

I've been extremely pissed off.

So, okay, Grace did a Special Games event (not S.O.... ) it was sponsored by panhellenic life at Loyola Marymount. I cannot for the life of me figure out who is supposed to be learning what from that situation. Like is this to make the special needs folks feel good or is it really about secretly making the frats and sorority girls feel better.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Well, I told my landlord that I'm leaving at the end of the school year, and I asked her if I could extend my lease until the end of June (it ends at the end of May) so that I'd have a bit more time to get organized and actually move stuff after classes end, but she said no. She also said she wants me to "create order" in the apartment as soon as possible, so that she can start showing it. (It is currently a mess, and I do need to get stuff organized and de-cluttered so that I can pack things and move.) I did get rid of three trash bags full of random papers and packaging and plastic junk that had been in my front room today, though, so that's a start.

Shrift, we love the Hotel Monaco. Bob's also stayed at The Palomar and liked it but the Monaco is his home away from home (with better room service and less pet hair than home).

sarame, that's so sad but wonderful the salon is taking care of her.

How sad, sarameg, but what amazing support from her work. Good for them.

Like is this to make the special needs folks feel good or is it really about secretly making the frats and sorority girls feel better.

Well B is definitely a factor, so the real question is what, if anything, do the special needs folk get from it? Sounds like you weren't impressed.

Hil, I suggest a Homeland-style color-coded evidence wall. That shows order, right?

Re: the stroganoff.

The sauce was good in the pan, but it's too subtle over the noodles. I don't know what it needs. Hubby would know, dammit. Maybe more salt? I did leave some out.

And egg noodles. I will never get pasta right. It's either over done or mush. Tonight it's too close to mush. Bah. And the meat's tough. Double bah.
