  • On an Unknown Beach

    Amanda Palmer has released a video for “On an Unknown Beach,” a lovely lonely song she covered by a New Zealand artist called Peter Jefferies. You should go watch it, then go buy her album Amanda Palmer Down Under if you haven’t already.

    @venks79 I like that “admin rights” is on there. 🙂

    My Valentine’s Day gift: http://twitpic.com/3zo3xe Also container of Duck Fat & a promise to make amazing popcorn. Now I really am swooning.

    Driver of 483 bus just closed the door ON ME and whacked my arm. Not the back door; the front one right next to him. Idiot. @131500buses

    Snook is composing furious letter about two 431 buses to Millers Point that blew past Broadway without stopping. Badly done, @131500buses

    @monnsqueak The angry letters I’ve sent usually get a reply, if nothing else.

    @innerwestlive Wait, what? Sick puppet?! @redambition

    @stufromoz I was hanging out with my healthy friends, the ones who are less of an EVIL TEMPTATION! 😛 @redambition

    Uploaded pic of brown cardigan that I’m knitting… for, uh, no particular reason. *SHIFTY GLANCE* http://flic.kr/p/9hK63P #topsekrit

    @drkknits Don’t you tell anyone! I might get disqualified, uh, er, NOT THAT I’M ENTERING ANY CONTEST WITH IT. OR ANYTHING.

    @Epaulette What happened? Did you have a break in?!

    @Epaulette Yikes! Hope missing phone is the worst of it and you’re okay…

    For Valentine’s Day, the Snook stopped me from eating toast that had mould on the bottom. Try not to swoon, ladies!

    Nothing like being passive-aggressive to start the week…

    Perfect day: cool & breezy. Foot was 96%; think the tape is stretching. Great run!

  • Jamie’s 30 Minute Meals #4: Curry Rogan Josh

    This was our fourth official cooking/blogging experiment from Jamie’s 30 Minute Meals. The weather this weekend has been cooler, so we thought something warming was appropriate. We also had some pumpkin and carrots to use up from the veggie box, so one recipe leaped out at us: Curry Rogan Josh, Fluffy Rice, Carrot Salad, Poppadoms, Flatbread, and Beer. (I love that Beer is in the meal title!) No dessert with this one, but it made a huge feast’s worth of food.

    Curry Rogan Josh

    Quick verdict: The only substitution we made was using Kent pumpkin instead of butternut. Time-wise, we were worse than last week with an elapsed time of 48:02. There are definitely things we’d do to save time next time though. Overall I rated it 9/10, while the Snook rated it 8.5/10. (Personally, any recipe with two whole bunches of coriander/cilantro is A-OKAY by me!) However, we both agreed that the lemon pickle SUCKS.
