All Things Chill

What do you do when someone thaws some chicken and expects you to cook it? Bake it! After laying a bed of celery, onion and carrots on some foil, I added cumin, salt, coriander, cloves, pepper, Cayenne and olive oil to the chicken and rubbed it in really well. I then placed [...]

I stopped my cousin’s house to see Bernadette, Bethany and Brittany (remember them?) yesterday for an early dinner. We had Barnelli’s ribs, some rice and some very tasty pasta with a homemade red sauce. They even got me a CAKE! XOXOXO.
While we were waiting for Bethany to come back from [...]

No point. But I do have a wallpaper sized image of it, if that’s any consolation. LOL. Randomness at it’s apex.
Abate.

Foolin’ around with MacBook Pro’s Photobooth software and integrated camera. Too bad Vanessa wasn’t around to jump in the shot. Hee hee.

If you remember, I was in Minneapolis to bring in the New Year, and it was a lot of fun hangin’ out with many of the people who help create the Industry Minne-zine: Minneapolis’ premiere publication for allthingsMinneapolis! How did they start? A quick bio, taken from their myspace page, follows:

Nothing beats a good Brazillian steakhouse or Churrascaria. Upscale environment, quality side dishes, excellent service and… MEAT. LOTS OF MEAT. I’ve been to the big four here in Chicago: Fogo De Chao (bidness), Sal and Carvao (first date-o), Brazzas (dinner and a show) and my most recent visit… Texas De Brazil [...]

Pants with Khektonics. Apple store. Gettin’ girls, and denying it. Milwaukee talk. LOL. Old high school acquaintance. J. Crew. Sushi station. Aki is busy as hell. 2 Cokes, 1 green tea. Edamame. Salt please! I’m a lightweight. I know the secret to [...]

Viral videos (short clips circulated ’round the Internets) aren’t normally my thang on this site, but I was feeling kinda down and out when I got home… and this little nugget of joy was waiting for me to watch over and over (and over) again. It had me smiling this…

V for Vendetta. You’d think a movie about crazy guy in a mask would be all sorts of creepy, but the Wachowski Brothers (the writers) and Director James McTeigue did a great job of introducing V, the main character played by Hugo Weaving, as a whimsical character with a certain sense of class and [...]

If Baskin-Robins sold 31 flavors of emotions, I would be the scoop with everything mixed together. Sometimes it tastes good (Mint-choco chip!) and other times… not so much (Rum raisin). 12 days and counting people. This is not a test. This is really gonna happen.

No real story here. I wanted meatloaf, so I made some! LOL. If you want something specific to eat, find the recipe, pick up ingredients and cook it! It’ll taste better from your hands, I swear. Recipe! Go!
Software:
2 Eggs
1 pound ground sirloin
4 cloves minced garlic
1 med. onion minced
1 carrot [...]

By the way, I have really great friends. I really cherish them for everything that they are, individually and as a group. It really pains me to know that I can’t just quit all my responsibilities and just hang out with each and every one of them as much as I can. [...]
