Ahh, Food...
I continue to update, despite my lack of a sufficient ISP at home... and despite the fact that ALMOST everyone I know never updates their weblogs anymore... mostly due to the fact that they are busy being systematically """"""distracted"""""" by their 'new' significant others. Uwaah... but I'll be nice and you'll have me a little while longer; there's still 2 weeks before Wolf Pup moves down here. Actually, don't expect me to be going anywhere- I depend on this journal to keep me sane. Justin can tell you I handwrote an entry every day we were in Florida just to empty my mind. While we're living together, I might be more """""distracted"""" but I think I may have more to rant about him. Just kidding, sweetie. ; ) (We've also been together for 2+ years now and appreciate our alone unwind time as much as together time... so boo on all you novelty junkies, we shall survive!!!)

Last night we had the BEST dinner over at my place. Murray and Katie came to my new apartment to escape their evil roomates and to use the new, big, fully-stocked SUPER KITCHEN [muahahahaha]... what started as a humble attempt to have a dinner together turned into an uber-gourmet feast of unrivalled proportions! I haven't eaten this good (even at a restaurant) in a while! Let me tell you about the 5 course meal...
We started out with sauteed morels, added spinach and feta
Pan-fried Red snapped with white wine, cream, and strawberry sauce (needed garlic/salt, maybe?)
Steamed green beans and baby red potatoes with basil
Oven Toasted garlic bread (real garlic, and a lot of it)
Salad with carrots....
for dessert, we cleansed the palate with Ben & Jerry's "world's best vanilla" ice cream

It did kind of suck that we had to buy non-alcoholic wine for cooking. The alcohol mostly cooks off, anyway, but there was something LACKING. Not to mention the carbonation. Boo.

It was a royal feast! We chatted until late and then I read for about three hours (ugh...) and went to sleep. Ahh, peace, harmony and DAMN GOOD FOOD.

It is nice not to have to come home to evil, rednecked roomates with anger management problems (or, in your case, Murray, a disfunctional couple...). But I am still a tenant at that house, though I don't plan to be for long.

And yes we will be having a house-warming party to which you, dear readers, are invited. It'll be the weeken of the 26-28th or next month the weekend of 4-6. I'll let you know when we have more info, etc. We do want to keep it small, the place isn't THAT big... and I know how people's houses get trashed at parties. (ph33r... ph33r... new carpet) Stay tuned for updates.

I suppose I really should do my reading for Evolution, Cooperation and Ethics class... mata ne!
