Crack Cocaine Curry


I have a problem. I cannot stop, even when I should, when it comes to two things. Chocolate, and curry. My husband really should hide the chocolate chips from me. I really can't stop. There they are, in the freezer, available anytime. He makes chocolate chip cookies from scratch, without a recipe. It is one of the many reasons I love him.

I had a Pumpkin Curry at "E-San Thai Cuisine" downtown once (Portland, OR) and I couldn't stop, even though I was full. I have been searching for YEARS! for a curry recipe that tastes like the ones in the restaurants. I'd try a recipe I'd find online, and it wouldn't quite be it. There was *something* missing. I'd try a different recipe, hopeful that this one contained the secret ingredient. "Ooh, maybe it's fish sauce! Nope. Or maybe ginger! Nope, that wasn't it, either..." I was beginning to think that the secret ingredient was indeed, crack cocaine. Well, I am so excited, I finally found the S.I., and it's not illegal. Email me or comment and I will send you the secret, part of which is in the process in which the sauce is made... Love, Kadra

Joggin'...


Bryce & I have been on an organizing kick lately. We've been following some of "Flylady"'s advice. It happens to be around the same time as the New Year. I think there's sortof a global energy toward Change and Improvement around the beginning of the year.

I've given up on New Year's Resolutions, though. I think I've become a little bitter towards them. I think what finally did me in was, a couple of years ago, when I made a resolution to exercise. Quarterly. And I still didn't achieve it! Oh well ;).
