Tonight:s Menu:
Curried Pumpkin Soup from the Nov 2005 Gourmet
-didn:t have onions, substituted shallots, tastes bomb.
-also don:t have curry leaves..
Result: Yummy. Ginger is spicy! Easily vegan. Mustard seeds are, sorry to say, extraneous. If they:re not around, it:s not a disaster. Also, do not, after trying one mustard seed & finding it has little flavor, toss a small handful of them into your mouth & proceed to crunch them up. You will taste like mustard.
JACK MADE COOKIES. But he took them with him. So I made cookies with egg replacer because we had no more eggs. They were too hot.
I have a serious case of "food is love".
I:m worried, first of all, that I will turn whatever children pop out of me into crazy crazy little beasties, & secondly, that I may have to marry myself because as of right now, I cannot think of a single young man (who actually exists) that I could marry & live with & not feel as if he would be a voyeur on the life I would like to lead. Uhh, actually, these thoughts would probably be more relevant if I was even dating anyone right now...
I am a tired girl. I:m off to watch Lock, Stock, & Two Smoking Barrels. Again.
