I can't spell it or I'd tell you what I'm having. I think it's Prawn biryani and Kabuli nan. Something like that. I am having a Firefly marathon in front of the fireplace. http://metachat.org/index.php/2005/10/23/what_s_cookin_good_lookin#c48733 Mon, 24 Oct 2005 04:20:24 +0000 c48735@http://metachat.org I cooked today! It was big haps. A hearty beef stew and whole wheat rolls. The kid and I made a pumpkin pie for dessert. Washed it down with some Hoegaarden beer (a massive splurge for us). I have never had a red bean bun. What do they taste like?

Oh well. It was a weird day. I started cooking yesterday afternoon- lasagna and chili and pinto beans- for a mission thingy our youth group did. We served about 200 people today at Church Under the Bridge in Waco, Texas. It was a good change of pace from my normal church in comfy suburbia. The message was from the heart; it gave me a lot to think about. The subject was suffering- and I could see people all around me that truly knew what suffering was about. Made me feel kinda overpriviledged.

If you are trying to lose weight it is good to stay away from any diet drinks that have citric acid in them as they tend to kick a lot of people out of ketosis.
