minxyHello flist and reading list. I have taken up the microphone today to wish ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tafkarfanfic and troyswann, the merriest of fannish-twin birthdays. Sal, I have fallen for Lewis. I will be reading your Peregrin one of these days! Also possibly I should apologize for all the birthdays I have let slide without comment. Sorry! <3 shout-out to all of fandom. I luv u.
I have a long weekend this weekend ('Merican President's Day and all) so naturally I spent yesterday at work, which turned out to be kind of epically depressing, despite only running into a few people, which is usually nice. Oh well. We know we will relocate, sooner rather than later, if possible, so my sadness at the state of things here is slowly gaining perspective. Let's hope for another option on the Central Coast sometime soon, eh? (I was so much more conflicted about the second body problem before I decided that I, too, was unhappy in this position. It's an interesting resolution of a problem, if you think about it.)
New topic! Um, I have depleted all my pre-made food stores from the freezer (I generally make a big pot of soup or pan of food for the week, and put some aside so that I can have it later. This often means that I have to make *two* giant dishes for the week, but really, I would have hated the same food for too many days in a row, so it works out.) This weekend, I am womanfully making pots and pots and *pots* of soup. And I started with making stock, too! FEAR ME.
Sadly, I am losing interest in actually following recipes, so the latest looked like this:
1 cupmirepoix carrots and celery
1 largeor 2-3 Asian eggplants pie pumpkin
1 can of fire-roasted, diced tomatoes
3 roasted red peppers
A lot of beef stock
coconut milk
Pureed. Yum
Added: browned shallots and yellow foot mushrooms (no idea! they were tasty, though.)
juice of one lemon
Did not add: garam masala toasted pumpkin seeds (on account of I burned them.)
On the list for tomorrow: BORSCHT! Which hopefully does not end up with the same ingredient list as this one, except with beets instead of eggplant. Place your bets!
Lots of love, fanbots.
