Lemony Chicken with Cilantro Sauce - http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes...
Lemony Chicken with Cilantro Sauce
"I became infatuated with this recipe once I read the ingredients list, which called for almost half a pound of cilantro leaves. Half a pound? Think about it—cilantro leaves aren't very heavy, and the recipe specifically calls for weighing it without any roots or lower stems. To fulfill this requirement I had to buy four large bunches of the stuff. I trust Madhur Jaffrey implicitly, and this recipe is adapted from her superb book Indian Cooking. But what would this taste like?" - Derrick from Bookmarklet
Turns out that the flavor is substantially mellowed as the cilantro wilts while the chicken braises. No longer really tasting of fresh cilantro, it melts into a delicious herby sauce with other classic flavors like garlic, ginger, cumin, coriander, and cayenne. But the crucial ingredient is the lemon juice, which elevates all the flavors and brightens the dish. The result is tender chicken with lovely, fragrant Indian flavors. - Derrick

DO NOT DISS THE CILANTRO, HOLLY. - Steven Perez

BREATHE DEEP AND LET GO OF THINGS -- alternative to "Keep Calm and Carry On" - Boing Boing
"Adam Greenfield's "Breathe Deep and Let Go of Things" tee is a nice variant on the classic WWII "Keep Calm and Carry On" posters that crowded graced England's streets during the Blitz (by contrast, today's posters warning you that the man next to you on the bus is probably a terrorist and inviting you to go through your neighbours' trash-cans looking for evidence of bomb-making might as well read, "When in trouble/or in doubt/run in circles/scream and shout"). It would make a good companion to Matt Jones's Get Excited and Make Things poster." - Melissa from Bookmarklet

"Photo by Melissa Acedera via the LAist Featured Photos pool on Flickr * Rescuers had to pull someone out of the rain-choked LA River in the Atwater Village area this afternoon. * And, hey, take it easy if you're driving. The CHP logged 290 incidents between 5 and 11 this morning alone. Yikes. * The Archbishop of Canterbury may have his robes in a knot over the historic vote approving the first lesbian leader, Rev. Mary Glasspool, who will now serve as the assistant bishop in the LA Diocese. * 50 more patients have been listed as having been exposed to dangerous radiation at Cedars-Sinai hospital." - Melissa from Bookmarklet

So, I've been using TwitterGadget in iGoogle since Twhirl went into the crapper again & I can't rely on Flock to give me recent (within the last week) tweets. This is their image for Twitter failure.

I would only be better if it was being blown from the whale's blowhole. - Michael W. May
I usually have no idea when Twitter goes down. This was funny to see. I like the emotiwhatevers at the bottom. - Captain Bubbles
Oh and just for the record, TwitterGadget does NOT have retweet option, so I'm back to no app for me. I guess I could use it on the Wii or Xbox. Silliness though, as the using it on the Wii is just using the website which I loathe and the Xbox module doesn't even let me visit links. - Captain Bubbles
What's happened with Twhirl? I use it at work still. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
As mentioned tons of times before, all I get with Twhirl now is 'updates paused, limit something 5 min.'. And that's for about 1 - 2 hours at a time. Other people are having the same problem. No surprise, Loic seems to not care about the items he owns. Always looking for something else. So, I'm moving on. - Captain Bubbles
Oh, sorry. Hadn't seen that before, and I haven't had that error. Yeah, they stopped really working on Twhirl when they released Seesmic Desktop, which I don't like as much. I like the recent upgrades to Tweetdeck, but it won't recognize the password for my main account anymore, so it's kinda worthless ATM. - Jandy, ConcertMaven of FF
The main thing I liked about Twhirl was the resizable windows. If I wanted a full-screen app, why wouldn't I just go to the webpage? At any rate, nothing is working for me right now, so I'll most likely just abandon Twitter. - Captain Bubbles
John (a.k.a. dendroica)
Ha! The first row is very moody, then it's birds! - Captain Bubbles
I think the top row is mostly from images that other FFers marked as favorites, while the bottom two are mostly from my contacts. So there is a bit of discrepancy in subject matter. :-) - John (a.k.a. dendroica)

With A New Smile, Rage Fades Away - New York Times - http://www.nytimes.com/interac...
I hope this link works. Whenever people ask me why I paid (out of pocket) to get braces at my age, I always tell them that because I was ashamed to show my teeth, people always thought I was mean, angry, or just generally unpleasant. I'm still wearing my braces, but now I smile a lot more, because I'm not ashamed to show my teeth anymore. I think it has made me more approachable. I can relate to the person in this piece. - cecily
The link works (and I can relate). - Michael W. May

Shawn just found an xmas present he bought me last year... and never gave me.
I dont know whats worse... the elation and subsequent disappointment of thinking you had found a hidden Christmas Gift that had been found because you found the awesome hiding spot.... or the realization that I did not actually give a Christmas Present I picked out and now have no use for because my wife's loving friends decided to give the SAME gift to her since she didn't have it. - Shawn Whitmire
It was all good till that last bit :( - Michael W. May

Life imitates art || My kids crack me up.
I told them to stand still so I can take a picture. I accidentally snapped this while telling them to look at me. Then I realized what they were doing. - Captain Bubbles from Bookmarklet
Love this! - Micah Wittman
I do too! It took Adrian's laughing to make me pay attention to them. They're so weird what they do unprompted and yet, it's totally something me and Adrian would have done. - Captain Bubbles

Do you have a best friend?
Yes. - Alex Scoble
Yes. - Mary Carmen
Yes. I actually have several. - Sparky
Yep! I have 2. Sadly, they both live far away. - Captain Bubbles
I have two! I'm lucky like that. - Bren, Not Grinchy
Yes; just wish he lived closer - JA Castillo
yes, i married her 11 years ago. - Joe Silence is not dead
I did. :-( - Trish R
No. I used to, but he ditched me about 8 months ago. Currently accepting applications for replacement. Have lots of really good friends, tho, which is nice (really nice, I love them all), but I miss having the bubble of it. - Sarah G.
I guess so, I used to have a true one in high school, but then he just left one day and I haven't heard from him since. I have some that I consider really close friends, but no one I think I can put at best friend. - Mathew™ one of a kind
Want one but haven't had one since the early '90s. - Spidra Webster
*sniff* I have two, but they're about to be really far away - Lo is a Quitter
Yes, a couple. - MASTER OF THE OBVIOUS
not really. my old one got tired of me and i sort of hate saying my partner is my best friend even though it's probably accurate. - Kendra <3 Three Lions
Yes. - Jim Hearts FF
Akiva! - Rochelle
I have in the past, but right now, there isn't one person in particular that I'd call my *best* friend. I have a lot of very very good friends, though. - josh neff, geek at large
I don't think I do. I have a lot of friends whom I love dearly -- a lot of them through FF, etc. -- but no one is at the top of that list. I don't know if they makes me sad or not. - Derrick
Ummm yeah - been married 13.5 years! :D - Internet's Tad
Yeah Niels, he's been there always. Even if I'm crap at picking up the phone and calling he never ever lets me know. He just knows that that's me so he is there. He was there when my mother had cancer. When I went into the dumps for a bit, he pulled me up and helped me find a job and get going again. I really don't deserve such a great friend but I am super happy that I do have him. - Rasmus Lauridsen
Yes. My husband is truly my best friend. But I'll fill out an app to be Sarah's new female best friend. - Junebug (aka Sarah Jill)
Yes - Steve
yes - VAL D.
my wife - Bill Kinney
Two - one I've known since we were 5, the other since high school. - Penguin It's Cold Outside from fftogo
Yes, two, and both live so far away from me, it's almost unbearable sometimes. - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
Yeah, he lives in DC. He was my best man, god father to my eldest and his dad is my son's doctor - RAPatton from iPhone
I have two, neither of them live in Texas. It sucks - aden
Definitely, my partner is my best friend. - Sam Carlson
Now, I want a best friend! I feel incomplete. :( - Derrick
yes. and i have a partner who is a close runner-up. bff and i have known each other since we were 12. - tiffany
I sure do... Two actually - Marissa
Because I'm a greedy girl I have 3. - pea from fftogo
Does my fiance count? - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
My husband. - Judy Jones
Yep - we've been best friends since early high school. - Jennifer Dittrich
I guess not. A lot of lifelong friends though. - Rodfather
I have one person I think I'd classify as a best friend outside of a relationship. My best friend Jameel has had the title since he moved in next door to me when I was 6 years old. We've been like peas and carrots for thirty years. Crazy. I still speak with him at least once a week. - Cheryl
Yep. - Laura Lou Who
hee! peas and carrots. me and my homie are more like PB&J or ham and cheese :-) - tiffany
yup - AJ Batac
No, I have a few - Shevonne
Okay maybe peas and carrots is little tame. We're more like...like...hot apple pie and ice cream? Cookies and cream? Chocolate cookies and milk? Great...now I'm hungry. - Cheryl
My wife. - Mark H
Not anymore. - cecily
I used to. - Kol Tregaskes
Maybe two - maxilprof
Jesus, the gardener. of souls. - Morgan Haley
Yep, maybe, I don't know. Do the ones in my head count? - Jimminy
I don't know if I have a best friend or not. There's one guy that knows everything about me and my past, but he lives in Berlin most of the time. Then there's another guy that knows almost everything about me and my past, and we hang out a lot. - Morgan Haley
So I guess it would depend on the definition really. does a best friend need to know EVERYthing about me and my past? - Morgan Haley
I married mine. - Jeremy (cropmarks)
No. My daughter has a problem understanding that. All people have best friends, she says. - Baard @ Pixum
complicated... I have 3 very good friends from childhood on, but I won´t consider them as "best friends". there´s always someone closer for a period of 2 or 3 years. usually my life changes then, and I exchange my whole little universe and the bestest friend with it. (somehow creepy, I know..) - esther ♥ ♫
@Baard, Freya seems like your best friend to me :) - Michael W. May
No. - Nine
no, not anymore. some close friends, but not any one best friend. - holly
Yes. - Melanie Reed
if I enumerated all my friends (all 4 of them), and ranked them in some order, one of them would be better than the others. In that sense, yes, I have a best friend ;) In the colloquial "bff" sense, I don't really think so. - DJF
First name "Tiny," second name "pants," although she goes by many other names. :) - Jenny R.
Akiva! - Akiva Moskovitz
but of course - L Stephen Cleary
Yes. - Jason Huebel
...with benefits. - sofarsoShawn
Yep. - Alix Whitmire
No. - Mo Kargas
My wife is my best friend in general. I don't have any really close best guy friends anymore. - Give 'Em DBizness
No, I have a Hetero Lifemate though. - Rob Haas
I said "yes" before, but I have to admit I haven't had a best friend since I moved back from NYC. Rob mentions having a "hetero lifemate" and I suppose that's what Paul was. *feeling lonely* - Jason Huebel
