A ghost? What's the deal? Is every frat on this campus haunted? And if so, why do people keep coming to these parties, cause it's not the snacks.

They're kind of like carrots, but they're white instead of orange, and taste kind of sweet.

Maybe you could make cake. Like carrot cake, only with parsnips. Enough cream cheese frosting and any vegetative differences will be irrelevant.

Anybody know why I bought a bag of parsnips?

You thought it was wintertime, and wanted root veggies? Roasted? Soup?

I just found a recipe for parsnip scallion pancakes. I'm pretty sure this wasn't what I was planning to make, but they look pretty good.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I love roasted parsnips.

In fact I have parsnips. Maybe I should roast some for lunch tomorrow.

Thanks, Hil

They are also good in muffins.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Congrats GC!

Well, they ain't rutabagas.

I read that paprika and cumin tame the sweetness of carrots and parsnips.

I'm getting all stressed out about writing my dissertation. Stress is no fun.

sorry, hon! I would offer to help, but all I could do is make sure that you have subject verb agreement :)

I made fondue for lunch tomorrow. I don't know why I've been on this fake cheese kick lately. I'm usually not really into fake foods, but the past week or so, I've just really wanted cheese.

Hee. Thanks anyway. Right now, almost nothing is actually written -- I've got probably at least 30 pages or so of stuff, but it's in about 15 different files and several emails and I'm not even sure which of it is relevant and which isn't. Once I get to the end of the summer, I'm going to have to go through all of it and get it organized. Right now I'm focusing more on getting some more results, so that I'll have actual content to organize in August.

Congrats to GC & DW!!! Woot! That is awesome news!!

Drew, I'm hoping the radio silence means you are in the air. Dear god! It sounds like a Dateline episode.

Remember how I asked about getting that real desk about 6 months ago? Yup, getting bumped. Not a big deal, as I'll be moving into a new office once the building is complete, it's just the timing really sucks. As I am all day/evening tuning the sound system in the new building, then jetting away on vacation, they e-mail me letting me know my desk is getting taken over. Really? Um. Couldn't have planned this out a LITTLE in advance so I could clear the desk. I'm moving over to the off-site space, where I need to clean out the sound storage area anyhow.
