The Athenaeum - Displaying artworks for Gustave Caillebotte:

wow, you would think that i'd run across this site before, being in art history, and an avid surfer. man oh manischevitz that is one cool site. everything i need to get the rest of the art history curriculum done.

anyways, missed a day or two, was busy and down.

dinner the other night was just left overs so nothing new. but last night was the fun night. the local grocery has Rock lobster tails for $5.00 USD every day it seems so i did a really simple recipe. cut off the soft undershell, pull the meat out just to the bottom, salt and pepper the underside, and 1T of butter and push the meat back in. salt and pepper the top, drizzle half a lemon on it, throw those on the panfor the fun of it (okay the garbage was way over there) stick a skewer through to keep it from curling and there ya go. in the oven at 350 for ten minutes or so, while the pan is really hot pour some brandy over the whole lot and POOF! flambe. the girl was even impressed.

oh yeah, microwave steamed asparagus with salt and pepper. i cheted and bought some crab cakes at teh store, they looked really good, but i did give them a really good fry in olive oil. the sauce for those was low-fat mayo, juice of half a lemon, some melted butter, some of the extra oil from frying the crab cakes, and tobasco to taste... thins spread on top and yum yum yum. i'm using the rest tomorrow to make a sandwich. i almost told the girl that i made those but i forfeited and told the truth, all in all i was impressed with them, lots of crab and not one shell.

hmmm...the other thing, oh yeah- one of those saffron rice packages from vigo. put it in a rice cooker with double the recommended water before i left for the grocery, and it was done when i needed it to be. i added my part by showing off my cannelling skills (sp?)

so there ya go. hmmm...i think that i keep meaning to put that lamb chop recipe up but i guess that will have to wait until i don't have to go to kinko's at 2:00 am
