thanksgiving: a good start
Category: cooking
last night i baked an apple pie. i made the crust from scratch, because us hos don't like to do things half assed. actually i do like doing things half assed, but not when it comes to cooking.

here are the results:

the ingredients and supplies, let's get started!
image

steve, my helper, and my momma's beau, helped. thanx steve!
image

hooray!
image

put in the oven, and mark it with a "G" for grammy and me!
image

all cooked, and wrapped and ready for thursday!
image

there are no photos of the rolling, and prep of the dough, but i assure you, i made it from scratch. making dough is a bitch, and messy too.

i need to buy some white bread to lie on top of my pie to keep it moist, because no one wants a icky dried out pie.

tonight, i might make another mini pie, with raspberries. tomorrow, i start on some other stuff!

i feel like this is going to be a great thanksgiving! yesamesh!

crust is wicked easy! here's a tip to save on the mess. stick your dough between two pieces of wax paper and roll it out, peel of one layer, flop it in the pie dish, walla!

when life hands you lemons...
Category: car
make a lemondrop!


or a screwdriver.


im le tired.


my car broke down a bunch of times this week, luckily, i was able to restart it each time. except for tonight after work. i then sat in my car for an hour and half, half crying, half laughing, nearly peeing my pants.

i had to pee so bad.

my car was just in the shop last week, and being the little nazi btich it is(more on the lovely swastika scratched into the hood later), it wouldn't do its not starting thing for the mechanic, nope. it loves to stall for me. in fact anywhere it can; in the middle of an intersection, the engine shut down on the freeway, on a curvy road, on a major hill; anywhere. i have been here 6 months, my car has broken down about as many times.

the upside to all of this? there is none. i hate that car.

anyway, onto better topics. this will be my first thanksgiving i am charge of everything, shopping, cooking, taming the wild beasts in my family. i have the shopping part done.

i also have a million art projects to complete in the next month.

oooh, and i am officially applying for my passport in two weeks! which means i will have it soon! i can't wait to travel!!!!

and, i still hate cats.

whenever i have really bad days like this, i think, at least im not preg, that makes every situation seem like such less of an issue. not that i am sleeping around so i would have to worry about that, but more of a, at least i don't have a family to feed or some shit like that. i can just hit the sauce when the going gets rough, not that i do that all the time either...

anyway, i cleaned my room today, and it looks really nice, so without further ado, i bring you the (e:lilho) abode! i will be lying in my bed, drinking some form of vodka drink....

it was pre-scratched, as long as it isnt completely dead, i am having it painted in the next month.

I don't think anyone would _scratch_ a swastika on the hood of a new car, (e:tinypliny) . Usually it's washable.
tinypliny - 11/19/07 00:33
Here is an illustrated car-puja! :)

Swastika on the hood? Maybe you bought it from Indians? The Swastika is a holy symbol of life and beginnings. All new shiny cars in Delhi (North India) traditionally have a crimson swastika hand printed on their hood before they go any significant number of Kilometres. They also have a coconut smashed and broken on their front bumper for good luck.
mike - 11/18/07 10:51
wow! you are doing the whole thanksgiving thing! GOOD LUCK!

shot in the dark. Maybe there is a hole in your fuel filter?

die cats, die.

God I hate cats too. Once I dated a guy who had a cat who he'd let sleep in his bed. It was so nasty. On time the cat was near my head and "accidently fell off the bed". It really was an accident, but I thought it was so funny I couldnt stop laughing for like 5 minutes. He thought I was a horrible human being and shortly after we parted ways.
jenks - 11/16/07 08:08
ha, don't I wish...
james - 11/16/07 01:06
They are just bioflavaodes so you would just pee them out.

But, I had only heard of it working and didn't look at what the dosage is. $60/month is crazy.... unless you are a rich doctor about town like Jenks.
paul - 11/15/07 23:08
For the adult dosage that works out to about $60 a month for the rest of my life. Plus, who knows what long term side effects it would have. I would rather spend the money on antifreeze.
tinypliny - 11/15/07 23:07
That would be a lot of stale puree. I am certainly not coming to your catamba juice stand. :)
james - 11/15/07 23:02
I have a friend who is deadly allergic to cat dander. When we lived together I couldn't bring in any furniture that had been in a house with cats because he would explode in hives and sniffles.

But he started taking a supplement called OPCs and he now lives with a room mate who has cats.

They aren't too expensive, give them a while

paul - 11/15/07 22:50
Wow, if I had a blender full of cat for everytime I thought about feeding one antifreeze, I could start a jamba juice for cat puree.

I feel that I have to say something. Numbers are very misleading sometimes. When us guys here a number we think wow that is a lot with out thinking about our own number. The reason it is misleading is if they where one night stands or relationships changes what the number means (or at least to guys perception of the girl). If you like to use movies as a reference there is a great one in clerks where I can't remember how many guys might have been 5 the girl slept with but she gave 26 guys blow jobs and Dante loses his mind. She is like it is just a blow job it doesn't mean anything I only sleep with important people or something along those lines. But that brings up what do people count as sex, I'm not saying that would change the numbers of anyone. For example some girls who wear those silver rings and say they are (just blanked on the word) will have anal sex and give head but are still a virgin since it wasn't vaginal (I watch way to much tv and should know that) not all of them just at a higher percentage then teenagers there own age who don't join absetance clubs or pledges.

i dont think 14 is bad at all. i dont think 30 is bad either.
joshua - 11/15/07 09:25
I don't think thats so bad really... assuming that most of them wore rubbers! In all seriousness though, I know girls who have been with more guys. One friend of mine had her count at 14... four years ago. She moved to San Diego and it wouldn't surprise me if she was pushing 30 at this point.

bring on the happy!
instead of complaining about random crap, lets emphasize the good. so not me, but im trying.

i would like to declare today, official hugs and drugs day! so, get your drugs, and get your hugs, and start a happy fest!

i am not sure what brought this on.

i also had choco cake for breakfast. for the second day in a row. i think i should eat an apple for lunch. and drink lots of coffee to rev my metabolism.

i have decided i am whisking off the europe for a while, to be an au pair. i like kids, i like foreign places(i think), and i love not being able to understand what anyone says. i figure why not.

i need a new residence game plan, i mean, the warmth is good, but its still 90 here, still. i need fallish. scarves! i wear them anyway but people think im weird, i mean i know i am weird but, it needs to cool down.

i am in charge of cooking thanksgiving dinner. i need a game plan for this as well. i will require full control of my "main deck", ie, the kitchen. people better stand back and recognize!

i don't like guns, but i really like this andy warhol screenprint, it is my current deskop. i wonder, do people think, "wow, she wears scarves when it is hot, and she really likes guns... what a freak!"

but maybe i really do like guns, because i am obsessed with that sniper vodka...
