Let me know if you:
1. Want to borrow some Tim Powers novels.
2. Would like some good tofu recipes.
I have a plenty of both.
Mike, if you have On Stranger Tides, I'd love to borrow it.
As for tofu, I like to cook really simple recipes with 10-30 minutes of prep and cooking. If you could give me your most awesome recipe in that range, that'd be great!
Hmm... On Stranger Tides is one of the few I don't have, I'm afraid.
For the other, I can hook you up with something from Isa Chandra Moskowitz's "Vegan with a Vengeance"... check your email.
Awesome list!
You can add 'got Love Bites transferred to DVD' to the list, as of 1.55pm today.
With 3 eps missing, though. Maybe leave it off until those other tapes are sorted.
Oh Matt, that is awesome indeed. Thank you!
I'll be bringing up the other tapes up along with the books on forensics for Debz. See you next weekend!
Impressive and awesome list of things to have done, although my brain is fixed on "hurray! The rescued sparrow survived." All other accomplisments fade into the background for me after the epic tale of one small bird near-death experience, rescue, recovery and flight to freedom. It's half buddy film, half heart-warming 'triumph over adversity' flick.
As a parting gift, the sparrow pooped on my hand.
