Last night I had dinner with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
palecur, racerxmachina, and roseembolism. It was Yummy. I also enjoyed meeting racerxmachina and roseembolism. Both seem like nifty cool people, as I might expect from folks who hang out with palecur and amywithani. Yay for little bits of a social life!
Recipe: Beef brisket a lapalecur. Get a brisket. Put it in the crock pot fatty side up. Pour a bottle of Stubb's Beef Marinade over it. Leave it for about ten hours on low. Goes wonderfully well with mashed potatoes and corn on the cob.
Naturally, because I am just that kind of moron, I tried something completely new for the first time and served it to guests some of whom I had never before met. Durrrr.
Recipe: World's Easiest Cobbler. (Credit:layer, who got it from Mother Earth News). Yes, I managed to screw this up. Melt a stick of butter in a 9x13 baking pan. Mix a cup of sugar, a cup of self-rising flour, and a cup of milk in a separate bowl; pour it over the melted butter. Pour four cups of fruit on top (original recipe said blueberries, but I used a Trader Joe's mixed berry bag, which the astute reader might realize is only TWO cups, OOPS). Bake for 20-30 minutes at 350.
The cobbler came out a beautiful shade of purple but it really did need the rest of the fruit. I think it also needed less butter on the crust (wow was that rich). People were very nice, though, and ate it all up.
My cats wouldn't eat their kibble after dinner. They wanted brisket. :-)

I am here by way of ozarque's Lj and our wee little conversation there which amused me. I often look at the user info of the people that I am chatting with. Also, I like the picture in the icon; if it is not you, it is an attractive smile and a good choice.
Your user info added to the intrigue. I used to square dance in the Boston area, MIT to be exact. It is one of the few places that there were more men than women and a single woman who did not have a square dancing boyfriend had a chance to dance on a regular basis. Also there were a lot of good dancers.
You had other stuff on the bio that looked interesting but I am A) slightly spacy about that stuff and B)in the midst of writing a research paper so I am slightly overwhelmed. My working memory is rather full at the Mo.
Any hoo, I wanted to say hi!
Re: Waves
Oh wow, Tech Squares? :-) I went to MIT but didn't learn to square dance until I got to California. I can't square dance any more (foot problems) but I still call.
*friendly wave*!
