Cous Cous with black beans? (Or black eyed peas if (unlike me) you don't hate the taste of black eyed peas) onions, garlic, sweet peppers,salt pepper for spice. Maybe curry powder. Baked apples sweetened with honey for desert. Leek soup? Green beans with almonds as a side dish?

The Jewish Vegetarian Year Cookbook recommends: Mushroom and Barley Soup, Lentils and Rice with Carmelized Onions or Zucchini Baked with Rice and Tomatoes; Glazed Carrots, Green beans Provencale, marinated tomatoes, and/or Sweet Potato Apple Bake (that last one sounds good to me); and baklava or cookies for dessert. Also, starting the meal with melon. That book usually has very specific reasons for its menu choices, so maybe some of that will resonate with you.

I'll just be having apples and honey because I don't feel like going to any trouble at all. Need to remember to buy some apples, though.

-t recommend is probably right, but cous-cous is one of the easiest vegan main dishes, and very flexible in what you add.

Hmm. That Sweet Potato Apple Bake sounds good. I'm pretty sure I've got a copy of that cookbook, so I'll take a look. Maybe I'll try some kind of crock pot cholent for the main dish. Traditional for lunch, not dinner, but still good.

The cable modem and the new router are my BITCH. I made them go without the usual rending of clothes and gnashing of teeth.

I've been super busy today. Went to see a friend before 8:00. Then Grace had a haircut. I forgot that we need to change her trach ties immediately after due to itchy hair. Which meant no yoga for me. Instead we took K to Krav and then twins and I went to Toys R Us so I could buy mashed veg and fruit to sneak to Noah against his knowledge. I had enough time to replace our 10 year old Airport Base station that was acting wonky and get an iced tea. Back to pick up K at Krav. Then lunch with Polgara. Then home to install the new Airport.

YAY. It worked!

I'm not sure about couscous. I like couscous, but it just doesn't feel right for Rosh Hashanah.

I LOVE couscous. It is so easy, and takes leftovers so well. I had some Near East Pine Nut couscous left over from when I made pork chops last week, and some leftover Bird's Eye steam mixed beans with cranberries the other night.

I roasted some cherry tomatoes that were turning a little wrinkly with olive oil and pepper, and dumped those, the leftover beans, some leftover feta and a little lemon juice in the leftover couscous and it was so delicious.

The Near East couscouses (what IS the plural of couscous?) are my best friends. Fast and yummy.

Just listed 9 books from college courses that I will never read again. FREEING! 10 books so far to go to Half-Price. I know if I can start to sell these I will get even more ruthless in my culling.

I haven't done enough housework this weekend, but I did manage to get to Costco and Buy All The Things. oy.

Ski Teal we drop

oooo, that one is so purty. I wants it. Not that I need new polish right now. Speaking of polish, I am wearing Ki and me likes it! Only problem is I put it on and then promptly did everything I possibly could to chip it, like wash dishes, clean a sink, and dye my hair. I was wearing gloves! But still. I suspect my unconscious just wanted a good excuse to redo my nails.

So I can already feel that Sherlock is pulling me towards fic. sigh. I have no idea how to even find fic, or collect recs, or I'd ask for some. Really, I am quite inept in regards to certain aspects of my buffista training.

Burrell, see my link upthread. I'll be adding to my list later this weekend. After Misha Collins drains my bank account with his charity run, that is.
