The most amazing nostalgic moment happened today.

I was at work, nothing real great about that, but my boss decided she wanted ice cream, now that's she's pregnant, she's been doing it alot lately.

So I went on the errand to get her ice cream, in exchange I get to stay on the clock, and she buys me ice cream. biggrin

Well I went to Marble...

I am pretty sure I have both interviews somewhere... I worked for on an online publication called Q&A Magazine and Life on the Net. Both folded... Wasn't my fault!

I have such great memories of summers with my grandparents in New York.

Ok, Citrus says she would like to have a going away party. But the only day she has avail is next Friday. So we need to get on it!
Do you want to post it on the TX group page?
I dont care what kind of food we have, I just want the pickles and icecream (besides that will keep the costs down, right?) Zeph has offered up her house again, so I guess we will have it there. I am going to send you my cell # via e-mail so you can call me.

I'm so fucking worn out!

Spent the weekend wth my family.

I think I've mentioned my cousins before, (I love them alot, they're the cutest little girls ever!) I spent the weekend chasing after them all over the house, and the pool and the lake! I think they drained every reserve of energy I had!

Oh yeah, and they're twins, so I had to do...

That's so bad-ass! I'm so happy for you.

So, it kinda sucks that you didn't come down to Austin for all the SG debauchery. frown We'll have to do something in Dallas soon.

It's too bad that Jason got the letter and not Wolf. Sorry... wink Question... Now that you are in veggie mode, are you planning to concentrate a bit of your culinary studies towards that end? Just curious...

I really have no idea what goes with fried pickles. But maybe we could do a get together at a park, or maybe at the zoo. You know, something outdoors, and we could bring the fried pickles with. Ok, wait, scratch that, this is an event that needs to be held close to the kitchen since fried pickles are best when served warm. I dunno. Give me some ideas, and i'll think somemore on it.

Love the profile pic!
And I love pickles too. MMmmm, I tried making them once but they tasted like crap.
You going to culinary school? Well Now I'm just JEALOUS. I always wanted to do that. Costs too much. frown

Well it's official.

I've been accepted into the Culinary Institute of America.

I'm a future chef now! smile

She's going to call me back with an entry date. Unfortunately it could be as late as December. mad

I'm depressed about that. frown

Um, well, I'm in Dallas. I'm the guy that sat across from you and ate chips and hot sauce and had a Texas martini at that joint on Greenville a few weeks ago... I was just trying to get an idea when people will be arriving and leaving Austin... I probably won't leave until 2-ish or so, and I'm not sure how long I am going to stay...

So people have asked me what I want to do with my baking degree... well I can't really tell you (It's secret still tongue )

But I can give you some hints.

My favorite topic of study right now is spain. More specifically whats happening there, and all the developments being made.

There is one group of chefs there in particular.

They run a restaurant, and...

citrus:
so!
did you call?
what did they say?

and do you remember commenting on that one piece in the exhibit yesterday, laughing because it resembled a clog?
i got a postcard from holland today and it has a woman on it, bending over at a dock at water... she's barefooted, you can see one of her shoes in the grass behind her, and then the other one appears to be what she's putting in the water with tiny sails on it!... there's a little string attached to the back so it doesn't get too far - it's like flying a kite but on the water!

so rad!

!!!

biggrin

happy monday, mister

So it really could be just a big conspiracy to sell exorbitantly priced cookbooks? I wouldn't be surprised if this thing went all the way up to the FDA! eeek Okay, I'll stop. biggrin

I remember the Wizard & Nintendu 64, but not the episode. Wow, my brain has really gone to pot (arf arf). (BTW- Your bong or mine? biggrin)

I never read Blades frown I was really into anime & manga from 15 yrs ago to 10 yrs ago, & I've been mostly out of the loop since. My fav. was Appleseed, & Dominion is funny as hell to me (& M-66 is strangely intriguing). I only recently started Ghost in the Shell (vol.1) & Orion. (If you've read Dominion, I have a funny story for you.)

Yeah, a martini without olives is dumb. I just wrote it because it fit the "theme" of the list. I actually prefer a vodka martini (gin is fine though), *slightly* dirty, stirred (shaking only affects the gin, though, right?). Suave. ooo aaa

Guess what!

I saw Harry Potter: the Prisoner of Azkaban last night!

okay first let me say, I only saw about half of the first one, in different segments, I saw most of the second but don't really remember it, and I've never read any of the books.

But I think I'm a born again potter now. That movie was totally fricking awesome, not to...

It's a movie that, if you didn't read the books, you will love.. MUCH better then the first two.

If you read the books then you will be all, "what? that wasn't in the book.." Who I hate seeing LOTR with bookworms.
raedon:
There were just under 10,000 people who graced A-Kon over the weekend. The only friends I ran into were the ones who I had a cell # for.

It was hard to miss me. I was one of 5 guys working the autograph line.

HA, HA, HA

I got all my paperwork on the way now, nothing else to do but wait, I even got my Fafsa submitted.

While I was at the high school though, I got a copy of my high school transcript. This is actually pretty funny, I'm not really sure what to think of myself, so dichotomous. Lets see...

I make killer samosas and spinach pakoras. Maybe some tandoori shrimp or chicken. I am not a fan of lamb! Aloo mataar or Aloo chole. What kind of bread do you want to make, naan or pratha's? Bryani or plain rice? Papadums of course. Sweet mango laasi and Kulfi for desert? I say we do Indian! We should buy the chutneys pre-made. Then I was thinking middle eastern...or Greek! NO...let's stay Indian...It goes a long way! We just need potatoes, rice, yogurt, flour, lemon, spices, veggies..not too much. Oh yeah, raita as well. That is easy to make! biggrin Oh yeah, what night? I think the 25th is the best...Just give me the prep info and the grocery list and it will be ready when you get here!

Okay so now I'm working on making lists for New York, and planning everything out, and making sure I get everything done.

and it's kinda stressful, so I'm eating Wasabi Peas. and it's making my nose burn. I keep doing the too much wasabi face.

I'd take a picture, but I don't think anyone really wants to see too much wasabi face. It's kinda painful...
