Second Lunch - Pomegranite
Category: food

I was bored and (e:terry) and (e:heidi) didn't make it to lunch till 4 so I tagged along. I thought I was too full to eat but I managed to down a whole lamb shank and backlava. We had a groupon so the meal was a good deal.

At the end of the meal I made a rice sculpture of a bird. Its like 4 years of art school paid off.

First Lunch - Fried Dandelion Patties
Category: food

(e:robert) and I made fried dandelion pattys for lunch. I couldn't remember how my mom made them so I made up my own recipe and it worked pretty good.

1. boil some chopped dandelion leaves in water. I drained out the bitter water and discarded but my grandparents used to keep it in the fridge and drink like iced tea.

2. cracked some eggs and blended em up with a fork.

3. took some chickpea flour and mixed with salt, pepper and some paprika.

4. dipped a handful of the dandelions in egg and then in flour. gently moved around but not enough to get doughy.

5. fried in peanut oil in flat frying pan.

6. after flipping and golden brownness, sprinkled with some shredded parmesaen.

7. optionally - (e:robert) added some siracha hot sauce on top.

Court
Category: court
Went back to court to today. One more year of growing apart. I think everyone involved was in total agreement that it was best but it still made me sad in a way.

I know this was difficult and sad for you but I'm really grateful (and maybe relieved) that you did it. Thank you.

Oops I meant to respond here instead of replying. I think they are available downtown but we paid for a certified copy when we bought the house.

Is that a survey you paid for? Or something on public record somewhere?
