Sometimes, when I'm bored, I like taking stupid personality quizzes online, particularly on Blogthings. I don't post results becuase I find them a waste of space, but I had to post this one.
The results from my "What Cooking Show Are You?" quiz - posted for my friend, Matt, should he come by the blog, because he's a bit of a "Good Eats" fanatic.

Posted as a link because I can't seem to get either of their codes to work on this blog. ARRRGh!
It's true - if I'm not making up something quick or from a box the rare times I bother to cook, I tend to be doing some kind of experiment. My experiments usually turn out pretty well, though. I have been kissed in gratitude for food that turned out well at least once!

Longing for Old-Timey Ways...
Just in case anybody actually reads this (such as my AIM friends who never comment because they don't have blogs and facebook junk or just because they have nothing to say)...
Due to an electrical problem at my apartment, I've been forced off the grid for a bit. The problem started yesterday and will probably be fixed sometime this afternoon, but if not, it may take a few days.
Its interesting to see just how dependent the average modern American has become upon technology and electricity. I was watching a TV show on Discovery Channel the other day (when I had the TV) all about how a solar flare could knock out the grid without warning. My guy had to scramble to get ice to put in a cooler to save our food... I'm wondering just how I'm going to get lunch without a microwave (dunno if I have enough money on hand for fast food, spent much of of my spare cash on lunch yesterday before we knew we had this problem). If worst comes to worst, I could have cold leftover tempura... but I don't know what Bob's having.
Makes me wish for a root-cellar and a wood-burning stove.
Why I'm able to type right now is becuase Bob has a laptop with a battery he charged using our car (I think, he bummed something to get it charged) and were bumming someone's stray wireless signal. I can't use it for long.
Just letting people I know and love in the Wired know that I'm out for a while.
