A cooking question: Hubby made a soup/stew with lentils last night. How soft should lentils be cooked? Hubby believes in a very firm interpretation of al dente, whereas I like a bean/legume to have a presence but not put up too much of a fight to the tooth. I found his lentils to be half-cooked, whereas he thought they were perfect. We're looking at each other as if we both hold suspicious culinary views.
And boys -- let's watch the swearing.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Seriously.
Hey ND, can you see my house from up there?

Oh, darn. I can't make donations to Angelbase from NC. I'm crushed.

I mean, I'm assuming that I'm not the only one who thinks that this is a pyramid scheme?

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I like my lentils a little on the chewy side but I I'll cook them more for my roommate and I think they taste just the same.

No, Vortex, I'd have to say that the great state of NC agrees with you. (Also Michigan, New York, and Illinois, among others.)

I like my legumes cooked to bursting.
I am oddly charmed by AngelBase's claim to seemless integration of technologies.
High-altitude posting, yay!

Just for the geek factor, I need to post from 23500' while I'm using the in flight WiFi on Virgin America.Once again, ND for the geek Win! The Alaska Air pamphlet talked about it, but neither of my flights had it. Very disappointing.
GC, don't forget Angie's List. Rate the icky OB on there too. I'm not a member, but the ads say you can rate doctors in there too. Good luck on finding a new OB. And, for the record, I like the Cookie Dough temp name!
Liz, Good luck on Monday!!
So? If there is a heat advisory here in Dallas, does that mean I don't have to clean my apartment yet?
After brunch, (yes, I am just waking up at 2pm), I'm heading to REI. They seem to have a bunch of sandals that I found online, so I can try and have INSTANT delivery! Woot! Then food shopping, which I hate. But then there is FOOD in the apartment! (my fridge is BARE! Just condiments and PB&J)
