Cooking (I need a cooking icon, yay!)
Nov. 9th, 2004 10:49 pmMy casserole rocks like a rocking thing.
I roasted a few chicken thighs in the oven with paprika, garlic and onions (and a quarter-ish cup of water and about one third of a cube of concentrated chicken bouillon), and added that to a base of spaghetti (only because the *censored* weevils got into my maccaroni!) and cream of chicken. As I was telling![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
joane earlier, in a flash of unprecedented genius, I decided to add carrots at the last minute.
When baking chicken in the oven, apparently setting it to broil for the last few minutes positively makes the meat melt off the bone.
Next time, I shall use a *lot* more garlic. It's good, but lacks garlic. Garlic is my friend. It's not like I have to worry about dates or anything.
I think that I shall also be more daring and add more vegetables. In fact, I shall likely do that when I reheat my leftovers. I have leftovers! This is the first time in recorded history that I have leftovers. From two dishes, no less! I have dinner for at least three more days in the week (two for the casserole, one for Sunday's pork), and I have chicken left over that's still not cooked. I may cook it tomorrow and add it to the casserole, too, as there seems to be very little meat in there, comparatively speaking.
In conclusion, I rock like a rocking thing.

Paintball advisory!

If someone who's registering this year would be so kind as to stick me on their card, I will be their best friend foreverandeverandeveramen and pay them back cash.

Okay, the not-so-rocking part...
Nov. 9th, 2004 10:55 pm... is cleaning up afterward. But all things considered, it could be worse.
And my morale has already been bolstered by casserole!
I will be spamming more in a minute as I make announcements concerning brunch.

Brunch is on, this week.
Now, would people still be interested if it were a tad earlier? Say, 9:30 or 10:00 instead of 10:30?
I'd like to get to the NaNoWriMo meet-up, and then actually get some writing done, so an earlier brunch would be most welcome on my end.
Yes, I'm aware of the irony implicit in this statement, seeing as how I've been late for about 60% of the brunches I've organized in the past. Still, I'm willing to give it a shot. ;)
What say?
Once I get some feedback, I'll post up the official notice.
