Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

I'm cooking spare ribs in the oven for tonight. I rubbed them with a rub (thank you, Jamie Oliver) and am ready to put them in. Should I cook them on low heat (250 degrees) for a long time (3 hours) or should I use a higher temperature?

America's Test Kitchen did indoors spare ribs on this weekend's episode, and they cooked them on a rack in a sheet pan over some smoky tea (Lapsong Souchong, I think it was), set the pan on a cooking/pizza stone after it had heated up to 500 degrees, cooked it at that temp for about 30-45 minutes, and then backed it down to 250 for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, IIRC. Oh, and they made sure to cover the pan in tin foil to keep the steaming/smoking contained.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

We made stock this weekend with a beef and lamb bone. The lamb was a *terrible* idea; the smell made us both too sick to sleep, and the whole thing is a greasy mess. I hope it doesn't ruin the taste, though.

There is a Golden Retriever in my dining room that my neighbor and I found wandering the busy street by my house. The damn thing is trying to bond with me so I don't call animal control.

Make it stop looking at me with those eyes!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Sue, listen very carefully. This is very important.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Tonight I'm going to make a vat of fruity curried chicken salad which I will eat for lunch the rest of the week. I have a bunch of apples and grapes I need to use up before they go bad.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I am still stuck on different quick and uncooked things to toss Buitoni tortellini in.

Oh, and eating out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I heated up some shelf-stable Trader Joe's veggie jambalaya, and it was nasty. FYI. I don't know what the cashier was going on about how good it is.
