Liquid Nonsense

So yeah, that lasted for three days. To quote Phil, "Ewww, you smell like a vegan." My previous question of "will my body start detoxing," can be answered with an affirmative "yes." I could certainly detect that my usual Chris-smell wasn't quite right, but I didn't suspect it was going to be a powerful enough change as to be both immediately detectable, but also immediately tastable. It was fun while it lasted. Wait, no it wasn't... It was extremely limiting actually.

Once again another awesome weekend has come and gone. I swear these things are way too short. Somebody needs to spend the necessary amount of effort to increase the week to eight days so we can insert another one either between Saturday and Sunday, or immediately after Sunday. That way every week is a three day weekend.

Saturday also involved my first foray into Thai cooking. The target meal was Thai red curry chicken with bamboo shoots, and luckily I was almost spot on. I think? Whatever I created it ended up matching the recipe and was pretty good (at least in my opinion, especially for a first try). I'll spare the story of how difficult it was tracking most of the ingredients down, but suffice it to say that I spent the better part of three hours running between various grociery stores looking for everything. The only particularly bizarre note would be locating red chilles. Living in Arizona you would think these are readily available just about everywhere. Nope, not even close. The only place I found that carried them in any quantity was AJ's, and even they only had like 9-10 at a time. Craziness.
