I actually majored in French lit, and took electives in waaaaaaaaaay too many subjects - media, comp sci, economics, comparative literature, history, italian, earth science, etc....such a geek.<BR/><BR/>AandJ - thanks for the idea. Sounds cool! :)leslie @ definitely not marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01737456208934610628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24912646.post-1164806047123568912006-11-29T08:14:00.000-05:002006-11-29T08:14:00.000-05:00for the "foam" desire...

I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for or not, but I once had a cappuchino mushroom soup, which was a nice creamy mushroom soup topped with foamed milk (like for cappucchino)... sorry, no specific recipe, but the presentation fpr this is really fun :)<BR/>AandJAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24912646.post-1164747612870728492006-11-28T16:00:00.000-05:002006-11-28T16:00:00.000-05:00hey lesliethanks for the fatfreevegan link, methin...hey leslie<BR/><BR/>thanks for the fatfreevegan link, methinks i'll have some fun reading that blog!<BR/><BR/>gotta say, your knowledge of literature makes me wonder how i was ever allowed to graduate from uoft with a major in english. all i learned from my courses was that i hate fiction, and somehow i managed to escape 4 years without ever having to read the odyssey and many many other classics. needless to say, my marks weren't good enough to ever consider doing a masters. i should have chosen another major. all i read now is non-fiction. i wish i enjoyed fiction more though. it's better for the brain than watching laguna beach.<BR/><BR/>derek and i recently started cooking using actual recipes. each sunday we alternate making elaborate meals for each other. it has opened up a whole new world, and i am quite enjoying the process of cooking. before my rule was if it can't be done in 1/2 hour, it isn't worth doing-- we'd just throw stir-fries or curries together or make veggie burgers or burritos. that kind of stuff. but after years of this, it is so nice to have fresh ideas and use ingedients that i never would have thought or known how to use before. i get it now. it is a labour of love and it is worth the time to have something really good and unique on your plate. and there is a certain pride in cooking a great meal that took effort and patience. like you though, i'll never be able to enjoy cleaning! and i'll stick to one day every second sunday for the fancy meal.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01574341757348229725noreply@blogger.com
