i had something to post on friday, but i can't remember what it was.
we went out on thursday to the midnight showing of james bond. i enjoyed it a lot- it was everything it should have been (with a couple slight modifications). i was totally wrecked the next day. i made it through work because it was a slow day and then fell asleep at 6:30. i guess i'm getting old.
i'm looking forward to going home. it feels like its been a very long time.
the other day i made yams with carmelized red onion, tamarind, chili powder, roasted garlic and roasted chestnuts. it was tasty, but didn't have as much zing as i wanted. if i make it again i will use more tamarind (i had never cooked with it before and expected it to be stronger) and more spice.
tripp and i had a little adventure today after brunch. i know he is planning on posting about it, so i won't say much- just that i was totally impressed by how nice strangers are. everyone we interacted with after the incident was awesome.

I've been meaning to try tamarind but haven't done it yet. Sounds like a good side dish for the holidays! Thanks for the comment, btw. I'll def. let you know when our lil' one arrives. Should be any day now. Have a great T-day!
