Dinner and Blogs of Note

Hello....

Well, you'll be happy to know that I went shopping yesterday and found a BUNCH of new ingredients. I first went to the imported goods store, "I Love Cookie" and found some jalepenos, capers, chili seasoning packets, and some dried italian seasonings. After school, I went to a more upscale Korean grocery store, found some fresh ginger, cilantro(!!!!), bay leaves, curry powder, Hoisin sauce, and a few other things. Last night I made a delicious Asian salad with tofu, lettuce, cilantro, corn, and onions. For the dressing, I mixed together lemon juice, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sesame oil and a little white wine. Yes, it had some powerful flavors mixed in there, but it was delish. I would have taken a picture, but when I mixed the tofuin, it kind of fell apart, and didn't look that pretty. Anyway, tonight, I'm making Chili, we'll see how that goes.

I didn't even plan on writing that much about my dinner! On another subject, you may have noticed to the left I have some links to various friends' blogs I read. They are all worth taking a gander. I just received permission to tell you about Bethany's blog too. I may be a little biased, but its maybe my favorite right now. :) Read it.
