Bikes at the square
Category: thursdays
You know its a good thing when you can't find a bike parking spot. (e:Paul), (e:terry), (e:heidi), (e:dianne) and I all rode down to catch the end of moe.

They sounded decent but I'm sure it would have been even better if we as high as the crowd was.

Bier auf dem Kopf
Category: random

It's easier to balance beers on your head than you'd think. I have a bumpy head and I could do it.

More food
Category: cooking
(e:terry) and I adapted a recipie for spicy potatoes out of the Indian food book. It used potatoes, dried chilli, peppers, onions, garlic and some cumin. Our ratio was a little off - too much potato and not enough spice - but if you scraped some of the chili seeds off the bottom of the pan it added enough heat. He also cooked up some mushrooms to go with it.

Oh and serve it with raw chopped red onions and cilantro! Throw some chickpeas in there... and maybe some fried paneer too and grate pepper over it.
tinypliny - 06/20/14 19:26
add a bunch of thai chillies in there and some jalapenos!

How come new posts from you appear randomly in between other older posts?

I scroll and suddenly whoa, I am like, "I didn't see THAT before!"
tinypliny - 06/20/14 19:24
As a rule of thumb, for all western "Indian" cook books, double the spices and triple the peppers and add a 3rd more salt.

Wait why are you cooking from a cookbook???!

Sprouted grapefruit
Category: plants

I was eating this giant grapefruit at work today, when I noticed it tasted awful. I got to the middle and found all these sprouted seeds. I planted one at home. Maybe we'll be growing grapefruits 10 years from now?

Kevin's birthday
Category: birthdays
After Erica's show, I met up with Emily, Kevin, Catherine, Mike and a few other people at Essex for Kevin's birthday. Unfortunately they don't have a fryer, and we needed fried cheese so we went over to Providence for food. On the way home I walked past Essex again and saw Callie and her brother outside, so I hung out with them and got myself whooped at darts.

Catherine's rant about Essex, fried food and patriotism

I really like recording sounds lately. It's easier to capture than video and I think people don't change their behavior as much because there's no visual. Sometimes video is just superfluous especially when it's someone just talking in a dark bar.
