Shallow conversation today...lunch consisted of making top ten lists of sexiest men and sexiest women. Anderson Cooper from CNN made a lot of lists.

In other news, it's very difficult to open doors with my right hand-it hurts. And I'm not clueful enough to do it left handed, without thinking about it.

And I'm hungry, all day, no matter what I've eaten, half an hour later, I'm hungry again. Can't figure out why, but was planning on making really yummy soup [1] for dinner, so maybe that will be okay.

Forthcoming-the very brief Arisia report.

And check out today's Google logo.

[1] It's yummy if you like seafood-it's got clams and shrimp in it.

Good seeing you at Arisia, BTW. :)

[geminigirl]

You too. It had been a couple of years. I missed out on last year...maybe I'll be there next year. Too early to tell.

Are you wearing your brace, young lady?

[geminigirl]

Despite it being itchy, and irritating the bruise on my palm, yes, I am in fact wearing it.

My CNN sources confirm that Anderson Cooper is gay. :)

[geminigirl]

You have sources at CNN that confirmed? (We'd already figured he was. He's a hottie no matter which team he bats for.)

Any word on whether or not he's single?

[wait.livejournal.com]

No idea on the single status.

My source is marieofroumania -- she works for CNN Radio. ;)

i don't find anderson cooper at all attractive.

oh well.

Anderson Cooper has been on my "A-list" for quite some time. He's hotter than sliced bread!

[geminigirl]

He is a tasty morsel. I'd let him stay. Course I'm apparently not his type...

Sounds good. I was hoping that you'd share the recipe with us.

2 14 oz cans tomato sauce (or 4 of the smaller ones-I used 2 of the 7 oz roasted garlic, and 2 of the basil/garlic/whatever ones this time)
Sliced mushrooms
Some onion
Some white wine
milk/cream/fat free half and half
A couple of handfulls of steamed shrimp, thawed if frozen
2 cans of clams
Some mussels or clams, raw in the shell, cleaned.


Saute the onion, some garlic and the mushrooms in an olive oil/butter mix. Just enough to keep it from sticking. When it's soft and translucent, drain the oil, and add the tomato sauce, and let it warm. When it's warm, add the canned clams, with the liquid, and heat a bit. Add the cream and the wine, and season-I used black pepper, basil and oregano. I might add more garlic here too (I keep a jar of minced garlic in the fridge) When it tastes about right, add the shrimp, and the mussels/clams, and steam til they're done. I eat it with some garlic bread. I think I got three or four meals out of the batch.

(It's rather inexact, but I tend to cook like that. I hope you can replicate it into something you guys like.)

Thanks. I can't wait to try it.

[geminigirl]

Enjoy. It's one of those "play with til it comes out the way you like it" things.

I need to go to sleep; I read that as "top ten lists of sexist men and sexist women".

[geminigirl]

Go to bed, young man.
