w00t!

My Annu is home, and I've got jury duty, so I'm tired, achey, emotional, contented. Work of course, is crazy busy and I expect I'm not going to be of much interest to anyone for the next month. Apologies in advance if I miss tweets, LJ posts,
etc - I am just catching up on stuff from last week right now. (doh).

Jury Duty is hard and interesting. Moar Coffee.

Urgh, the infection is kicking my ass, I think less LJ and Twitter and more sleep are called for. Y'all havin' a life, keep having great ones. :) 

Cooking in a Tiny Kitchen: Experiment Two and Three

This time, I made rajma and rice and roasted some beets again. Over roasted the beets, thus reminding me I need a kitchen timer. Instead I bought a watch. (which doesnt have a timer. Doh. I think my fone does tho) - Didnt use prepbowls, but used saved plastic containers from the last time I ate take out from the thai place that uses really nice plastic dishes. Hell, who needs prepbowls! I have GladWare! :)

Alicia Bell and I ate it with a bottle of Barbera D'Alba 2007 - a little young, but I still love that grape.


Experiement Three didnt complete because I was tired of chopping and didnt make an apple pie, but will this weekend.
I made peppers, onions and kielbasa over brown rice. Since I was also making tea, I had three of four burners going at once! Roasted some yams and potatoes again, 'cause its too damn easy.

Failures: Roasting garlic - have to wrap in foil, they finish too soon and burn.

The fun is still that there is no prep space, so I use the dining room table. I'll take pics.

But dont need prep bowls, and still working with two saute pans, two pots. I need one more lid tho.
