barnyard dawg

Pasta bolognese: onion, mushrooms, spaghetti sauce, ground beef, pepper, garlic, chili powder, basil, oregano, rotini. Olive oil + water, boil, add pasta+mushrooms. Cook beef, stir in onions, chili powder, herbs until cooked. Then add the tomato sauce, bring to a boil, simmer. When both are ready, mix them together, and add the ricotta. Stir, serve. This dish was one of the better ones I've tried.

No idea what to put wheat germ in. Burgers, meatballs, meatloaf? It's high in folic acid, fiber, and vitamin E?

If a potato chip falls into the trash bag of a trash can, and there's nothing in the trash can except for the bag from which the potato chip came, and the trash bag was just put in a few minutes ago, is the potato chip still edible?

I picked it up and ate it.

So the new Wong Kar Wai movie, My Blueberry Nights, is out, and it supposedly got terrible reviews. D+ from several, in fact. Fresh blueberries themselves don't even taste that great as a standalone fruit. Now, I've agreed to go see this movie with Clare on Friday. Since he's subjecting me to such terrible visual stimulation for god knows how many hours, would it be just if I were to pick an equally shitty Asian movie (The Forbidden Kingdom!) and do the same to him? An eye for an eye.

I've been trying out this cybersex, chat bit, with a familiar over the past few weeks. Slow and steady wins the race, or so I thought. This aggressive woman is demanding penis at face value.

My brother's birthday is also on a Tuesday. We were born a week apart.

the potato chip should be fine. trash bags aren't inherently dirty. unless the factory that makes them is dirty.

my sister was born exactly one week after i! our days of birth fall in sequence 8 days before yours and your brothers.

hooray for recipes! one of these days i'll send you a long message detailing my cooking interests/ wild (bizarre, disorganized, fantastical) explorations with food, because you asked in passing one day you were here and i gave you a flustered, nonsensical reply that didn't at all capture what i meant to say.

regarding wheat germ: it's good in smoothies, or with yogurt and various toppings (or even mixed into cereal and milk - think soggy weetabix, MMM) or in baked goods: cookies, pancakes, etc. i've never heard of using it in conjunction with meat, but it's often used as a flour substitute (in moderation) so perhaps worth a try... your recipes may end up tasting healthier and a little grittier than usual, haha, but just think, your nutritional intake is soaring!!

ps: we miss the siu! i'm sorry our house was a little messy for your taste (it often is for mine, too)
