Glad you did.

If I thought I could get ready for the afternoon trivia in time, I would, but that's probably not going to happen.
Yeah rushing to fun things cuts down on the fun

Quote:
My basil isn't whole (couldn't find it in the store I was at), I got both the basil and garlic minced and in olive oil already.
Good the best way to go is some kind of pesto if you can't find basil. Rare are the recipes that call for basil and can't accommodate olive oil and garlic

Quote:
Mmm chili. I had a good recipe for a Hmong chili a few years back, I adapted it so it was pescatarian-friendly. (Veggie burgers instead of ground meat. There was fish sauce in it. That's why it wasn't fully vegetarian.)
mmmm that sounds really interesting! I do have to admit to an umami craving and fish sauce hits all the right spots

I'll send ya the recipe when I get home, it's deep in an old e-mail account. I made it for Dad (& Mom-Mom) once in Florida and they really liked it, too. Last time I made it was probably late 2012/early 2013. I remember making it with Jeanne (we usually eat out, but there was one time when she made us dinner at her apartment and one time when I made her dinner at my place when I was in Albany) and then freezing the leftovers.

I'd love it! I'm always curious about different takes and I have so much to learn about Asian cooking! It's very vast and it has so many flavors

I'm working on getting a freezer because it's so convenient!

Oh and since we're speaking of Jill Sobule, I recently learned she was in a long time relationship with Kim Dickens, who is amazing so I guess she also has good tastes

And now I should go back to bed or Ness will wake up and take my tablet away

Goodnight Gaby and get some rest too!

And lots of love, Kickster! And remember you're not old, you're just vintage!



Thanks for the recipe, Gaby! My email has been bugging me this weekend so I couldn't reply to say thanks How was the singalong?

Quote:

Kim Dickens - IMDB
She's an indie actress who's done quite a lot of tv at this point. She's probably most known to mainstream audiences for a famous love affair with Calamity Jane in Deadwood, and more prosaically for Friday Night Lights and Lost. She was recently in Treme (although ironically her character was in NYC in the episode where Jill was in the show )

awww I love that! There used to be one in my hometown pretty regularly but since I've moved to Paris... I guess Paris is all about diamonds and Art with a capital A.

Back to school with a friend! Sounds like fun
How long before you're done with the formation? (you haven't started yet and I'm already asking about the end )

Heh good! That's a much better reaction than "" even if you don't cook. Though I don't know if you don't. I mean people in general

I made the avocado pasta for dinner tonight along with some minestrone soup (just warmed a can of Amy's). So good!

Anyway, had a great time at the Buffy Singalong. Stayed at the after party for about 4 hours, after about 2 hours, I joined some of the cast to go to this Thai place to get some takeout to bring back to the bar. Anyway, it was lots of fun and they were so welcoming. I'm looking forward to attending more of their events in the future. Next up is Geek Trivia at the LGBT Community Center in about a month (it's always 2nd Sunday). It was also great to know that some of the people live in my neighbourhood

Edit: Haha, just saw your post, Fluff. Saw you post on other threads, so figured you'd come here sooner or later, so we were writing at the same time Thanks for the link to Kim's IMDb -- I've seen her in FNL and White Collar if not other things. And you're welcome for the recipe

yeah we got our wires crossed, it happens

Yeah she's been around for a while and has done a lot. I really like her and even though she has played lady loving parts before and she was kinda pinging the ole gaydar I only recently learned she was with Jill. They are keeping it very low profile, which I get because who needs media attention on their private life?

Quote:

Sounds delicious! And I just acquired a book on Hmong cooking because I know nothing about it so it's great timing too
And now I owe you a recipe or two.

Yep Btw, Buffy was a drag queen. The woman who was Anya said she wants to be butch lesbian Spike next year, which sounds amazing. Maybe the whole thing will be genderswapped.

You do! You're the cook here, why am I the first to give you recipes? hahaha.

BTW, I'm watching Broadchurch at the moment. Just finished episode 6, so two episodes left.

Hahah! That sounds like a great idea! And if any show got the best of (and played off) gender stereotypes (especially in the genre), that's Buffy! So that would be just perfect!

Quote:

because I'm a lazy cook and I have to type them. J keeps telling me I should have all my recipes in a book somewhere but they're mostly in my head unless I use them for class.

I have yet to try it!

ETA: I'm actually sleepy so I'm going to bed before I wake up. Goodnight Gaby
