unless people were being awfully polite, i think my turkey burgers were a big hit this weekend, both at greg’s and at our house. this is from a weight watchers recipe that monica’s mom gave me if you can believe it or not.
1 - 1 1/2 lb. lean ground turkey meat

1/2 cup bread [...]

been sick since saturday. ack. today at work we had a great Q & A via videoconference with quentin wilson. wilson was one of the ‘rocket boys’ documented in the book (and subsequent film) october sky. the students really enjoyed it and wilson had some really interesting things to say. on a tech note, i [...]

i got my copy of UC2 in the mail yesterday from LAG-mate nuklhead. with added third-person views and maneuvering, melee combat, new techniques (like deflect) and so on, this isn’t your daddy’s UC. can’t wait to play it online, hopefully there’ll be people on tonight. the single player is pretty basic so i hope to [...]

once again, swiped from martha stewart and using reduced or nonfat ingredients. i grilled instead of broiled and it came out fine. i also only seasoned one side of the chicken for a crispier, more textured skin. use a whisk or hand blender if you want the raita to be less chunky and more like [...]
