so i was reading the flyer for Trader Joe's today, and one of the items they mentioned was Shrimp Corn Dogs - shrimp on a skewer dipped in corn batter and fried. now i feel like my life is incomplete until i have them.
i keep looking at this recipe too. perhaps i should not be trying to plan for the week when i am starving either.

now that all the erranding is done, it is time to do dinner planning and recipe searching... which probably means I'll end up back at the store sometime today. #doingitbackwards

Here's what I do. Buy just about any kind of pre-made sauce that's available. Saute some onions, peppers, mushrooms and gahlic in olive oil. Salt, pepper, paprika it. Add any fresh herbs such as parsley, basil and oregano. If not available fresh, add the dried variety. Add pre-made sauce and cook low. I also add a can of tomatoes or fresh tomato if I have it, boiled (in the pasta water), skinned and roughly chopped. Bring to boil and go low for 20 minutes or as long as you can stand it. It works.

Yep. Open the jar of Mazzetta's. You won't regret it.

I usually do just a jarred sauce; I thought i might try something different for a change! i keep meaning to try that brand, Akiva. i'll bump it up the list.

album-wise, you can't go wrong with his latest 'The Spade'. not a bad song on it. also, his previous album 'I Liked You Better When You Had No Heart' is superb (I thought it couldn't be topped, then The Spade came out). He currently has a video out for the song "Synthesizers" that is AWESOME and has Wooderson from Dazed and Confused. Those are a good start though. As you can probably guess, I could go on and on. ;)

"To please a true chocolate lover, head to Portland, Ore. That's the lesson learned after sampling the country's latest crop of top-drawer bars and truffles. Why this city's responsible for producing the best in choco-show remains a mystery. "There is less fear here about breaking rules," said Jesse Manis, co-founder of the Cacao shops, where the spotlight is placed on carefully selected small-batch producers (many of whom are his fellow Portlandians)."

this will teach me to complain: i whined about how inconvenient the MINI dealership is... and now they're moving somewhere even less convenient. #bitchlipsatmyself
