>Food Open Thread
Yesterday I made an asparagus salad, cucumber salad, and a shrimp and celery stirfry over rice noodles in the afternoon.
I ate it all by the end of the night…
>Return of The DorK Diaries perhaps?
I haven’t even referenced or talked about DorK in months since he’s pretty much left my blog alone. Then a friend gives me this: http://mystonline.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=20776&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=135
DorK:I’m done, I am fed up of this idiot getting his kicks from speaking for me …
Whil you need to stop … because I will not be the last person to call you an idiot. goats are not the only thing that matter!
You are not the only one who can write incoherent drivel as well you know …

That did not go down too well with me, but least of all I don’t yet understand if you are involved … make my day!
Just because you’re too stupid to understand something doesn’t make it incoherent drivel. I would think you would know what incoherent drivel would be since by now you have a PHD in assclownology.
>Quick Curry dish.
This dish is taken from quick and easy thai. I made it tonight and it’s very flavorful! If you can’t eat fish you can easily replace the tuna with chicken, if you don’t eat meat you can just use rice, or even add rice in with your chicken or tuna! If you don’t have fish sauce on hand you can flavor with salt. But the fish sauce does add a very unique flavor.
You will need:
1 cup of unsweetened coconut milk
2 to 3 tablespoons of red curry paste (If you’re brave you can experiment with yellow or green curry pastes)
1 12 oz can of tuna or 12 oz of freshly cooked chicken cut up into bite sized pieces
1/4 cup of chicken broth or water
1/2 cup of frozen peas or frozen edamame beans
2 tbsp of fish sauce (I’d reccomend 1 tbsp though because it seems extra salty if you add 2. A little bit goes a long way)
2 tsp of palm or brown sugar
In a medium saucepan bring the coconut milk to boiling, then decrease to low and add the curry paste. Stir until the paste is well mixed with the coconut milk, about 3 minutes. Add the drained tuna, chicken broth, frozen peas, fish sauce and palm sugar and stir gently till it’s mixed well. Simmer 3 to 4 minutes till the peas are heated through. Eat over rice if you want it to be more filling.
Serves 4.
>Goodbye Tommy.
On Sunday morning I awoke to find out that one of the meows we adopted last year had passed away.
He was getting on in his old age, but he was the most playful of the younger ones which sort of made it a shocker to me. We like to think that we made the last year of his life the most pleasant.
We’ll miss you, big orange meow. 🙁
>Early morning Open Thread
Worked on my taxes today. Looks like I’ll be getting a refund this year from both the gov and the state. Yaaaay.
>Early morning open thread
Allergy season has finally caught up with me. The pills have been making me feel drowzy. -_-
Today I went on a booze run to California. Only to buy tea!!! That’s right… I’m that hopeless. Actually it’s southern sweet tea flavored vodka but hey…
Then tonight was movie night at a friends house next door where popcorn, pizza bites and booze could be found. It was awesome, everything besides allergy season is awesome lately.
>The Overlord’s Easter.
Like every year I worked Easter Sunday today. But this year was different, it was snowing and raining. Not making that up either, fell as snow and melted when it got down near the ground. This weird woman was creeped out by it. “This isn’t right” she said as she shook her head. I kindly asked her if she wanted to join me to work in it for 8 hours with me, then I winked and laughed. Yeah she wasn’t happy about that…
I was prepared to fight the storm today though, I had on all my rain gear. In fact a kind gentlemen yelled at me and said I looked like a construction worker. And another guy asked me if I liked music. What kind of a question is that? I said “Ummmm, maybe.” and he said “Well I noticed you humming a song one day…” Then he pulls out his card that has all this info on it. I kept it in my possession just to show some friends. I have his phone number, email, myspace, facebook, twitter and itunes links. And that was pretty much the excitement of my Easter Sunday. Aside from coming home to an omnom feast.
>Drunken Spaghetti
I decided to try a recipe out tonight. Spaghetti boiled in wine, reserving the boiling liquid for a sauce with chicken stock, shredded beet and chopped shallot with arugula. Oh god it’s omnom topped with bleu cheese, but I’m not taking any to work or they’ll think I’m a drunk >_>
