I am going to cook. My sister gave me Kitchen of Light for Christmas, and it's the first time since the holidays that I've felt like cooking. Venison with brown goat cheese sauce and lingonberries, rutabaga with vanilla bean and rosemary. Also a green salad with shiitake vinegrette dressing, but that's not from the book.
I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

[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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Calli, that sounds amazeballs.
Okay, really. Getting up and walking out the door. Swears.

Kitchen of Light? Sounds interesting.
I actually made supper. Haven't done that in a while. And because I cooked all the chicken, I can cook just sides for several days. (You know, to eat with the already cook chicken.)
Trying to make my kitchen a more happy place... which to me is one that gets used.

Yum! We're all invited for dinner, right?

I am at the laundromat. And I'm hungry, so I got Cheezits and an energy bar from the machine. Now to try and catch up on my volunteer stuff, oy.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

That does sound of the yum. Daniel is at work, so it's just me and the cats. I had a red leaf lettuce salad with clementine sections, cashews, and red bell pepper. Just used a bottled creamy Italian dressing, but I loved it. Then I had portobello mushroom ravioli with a tomato-basil sauce. Finished up with a pear that I sliced up and shoved in the microwave with a handful of blueberries, brown sugar, cinnamon and a pat of butter. I felt feast-y for lunch.
And now, I shall have some restaurant leftovers for supper.

Grocery store and Target accomplished. Pity; I could use a good fight.
DINNER AT CALLI'S TONIGHT!
Darn it; I'm making one of those Bertolli's frozen pasta things: the penne with shrimp and spinach. I brown butter, add garlic to the butter for 15 seconds, and fresh thyme to it, and serve with cheese sticks.
Then I gota get me some work done. No Downton Abbey for me tonight; I'll have catch up tomorrow. The first one of this season airs tonight, yes? Or have I missed it? HORROR!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I made tofu chimichurri -- marinated in a sauce made with parsley, cilantro, garlic, shallots, and a little vinegar -- plus mashed potatoes and cauliflower (I don't like the low-carb mashed cauliflower instead of potatoes, but a mixture of about half of each works well) with gravy.

Mom brought over leftover chicken marsala when she was here this week, so I defrosted that and made a ton of mashed potatoes with goat cheese for dinner.

I am running errands (actually managed to drag stuff to donate, exchanged soda stream, waiting on pants to be hemmed). But to wait while they were hemmed I thought I'd get a pedicure, an it was possibly the worst one I've had. Not coming back here. Humph.
