i hadn’t realized it was a week since i posted last.. shiiiiiit. this past weekend i hosted a party. it was great fun. i need to do it more often. patty must have been nervous though, literally the second guests started arriving she threw up on my couch… i was so pissed. i think she saw me scurrying around all day cleaning, and saved her vomit till i was done. :(

i’m watching american idol and i think i love the country girl from Lenore, TN. she just said, “man, i’m going on an arrow-plane!”

i bought all the fixings for lettuce wraps and because i forgot tofu at the store tonight i figured i would cook the frozen chicken breasts i had in the freezer (even though freezing them made them look more bloody).i looked up a recipe online and it recommended frying them for 5 min on each side in HOT oil…. so i poured a bunch of sesame oil in the frying pan, put a top on it, and sat down on the couch, thinking i would hear it sizzling.

that was a wrong assumption.

when i didn’t hear sizzling after a couple of minutes i looked back and saw smoke pouring out from under the lid and the kitchen filling up with smoke. since i have experience with pans of oil being in flames on my stove, i knew enough NOT to take the lid off the pan.. i calmly removed it from the burner, and promptly brought it out to the driveway. that is where it will stay till tomorrow morning.

i hate chicken.

here are pictures from the party and january so far.
