fish soup

tomorrow is the big KEC 1st annual GLBT summit. finally. it seems like the planning has been going on forever. (and the planning for the next one will start wednesday, i'm sure) anyhow, it ought to be interesting!

ok, irritating factoid of the day; it has snowed several times this weekend. it is 28 march, and it has snow! absolute ridiculousness! i've certainly had my fill of the vile white precipitation.

saturday, i had lunch with sara o'keeffe and laura engelhardt, which was incredibly fantastic. i ended up blabbing the entire time about deutschland, i know, but it was wonderful just being in their presence. (does that sound creepy?) later that evening, i made my american family Spätzel with german käse, and braised red cabbage with currants (rotkhol mit korinthen), and a nice salad. it all turned out really well! also got to catch up with marianne and cinnie, which was awfully nice as well.

sunday, was spent mostly lazing about, but also heaps of laundry. we also spent the evening catching up with tom and B. (it was indeed a weekend of catching up with folks!)

after work, i decided to make my soup for tomorrow's dinner, because i won't have time to make anything then. it's an algerian fish soup, made with onion, garlic, tomato, potato, and fish. i also put mustard seed, cumin seed, turmeric, saffron, indian chili powder, and paprika in it. tomorrow, i'll heat it up with a bit of lemon juice. hopefully it tastes ok! i'll let you know.

ok, enough random jib-jab, i'm a tired puppy. gute n8!
