Anybody want to come to dinner?

Posted on April 25, 2004 By admin 4 Comments on Anybody want to come to dinner?

Lazy sunday afternoon. I'm finally getting *some* work done, which is good, but I'm bored to tears, which is bad.

I have a pot roast in the oven. I was taught in the old-school slow-cook technique for roasts, so it'll cook away at 275oF for most of the afternoon. With regular basting, the meat literally falls apart under your fork. And my gravy is to die for :) I put half a bottle of a very spicy red wine in the pot, with red onions, carrots, celery and mushrooms. When the roast is done cooking, you simply strain it into a sauce pan and reduce it until you get it nice and thick. The flavours of that thing are heavenly.

So, if anybody wants to come and have some, it'll be served with steamed broccoli, buttered carrots and corn. Give me a shout and come on over :D

I should be working but I'm not

Posted on April 25, 2004 By admin

I should be catching up on some work, but my heart isn't in it. So instead, let me bring you some more comics, a few pictures of home, and…


my fridge magnets

And yes, the lobster is a magnet, but unfortunately, it's not mine :(

PANCAKES!

I tried my hand at making pancakes this morning. Sounds silly, but I'd never made them before. So GOOD, especially with fresh maple syrup!

Dreams and all

Posted on April 25, 2004 By admin

I was talking with [info]kaliko_mel yesterday night about weird dreams. I've been getting some doosies these past few days. That tends to happen when I get a lot on my mind. Happened again last night. Bleh.

Quote of the day

In the second scroll of Wen the Eternally Surprised a story is written concerning one day when the apprentice Clodpool, in a rebellious mood, approached Wen and spake thusly: "Master, what is the difference between a humanistic, monastic system of belief in which wisdom is sought by means of an apparently nonsensical system of questions and answers, and a lot of mystic gibberish made up on the spur of the moment?" Wen considered this for some time, and at last said: "A fish!" And Clodpool went away, satisfied.
--(Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time)
