Another day, another dollar

Yesterday was not a good day, food-wise. The beef cubes for my stew didn't thaw properly, for starters. Then when I was browning the beef I recalled that the last time I had done this I had made a mental note not to use the smaller pan, because it's not big enough for all the meat and onions. Guess which pan I was using yesterday? Yeah.

Then I burnt the bottom of my chili. Normally I do it in the crock pot, but the crock pot already had stew in it. I didn't scrape the bottom, and at first taste the burnt taste doesn't appear to have permeated it, but one can never be sure. I did add extra jalapenos (I can't find the little squiggle on this keyboard, blast it), and that may have burnt off all my taste buds. Oh well.

Anyway, I salvaged all the food from disaster, did a load of laundry, and managed to watch three movies while I was procrastinating (for the curious: "Night of the Living Dead," "The Princess Bride," and "The Magnificent Seven"). Not too shabby. ;)

The lovely [livejournal.com profile] luvenditti stopped by for a quick visit in the evening, too, and the feline forces of entropy threw themselves at her shamelessly. My cats are whores.

I went to bed too late again, because my body refuses to go to sleep these days, and now I am tired.

I really want a membership. It comes with some pretty cool features.
