Can anyone tell me how it works if you just want to stay here? Like, can you just take a flat if you like it or what?

And how does this time thing work? If you have an injury or like a surgical wound, does it heal?
1st-Dec-2009 10:40 am - oreshki - ukrainian nut cookies
as some of you know, my boyfriend is a russian immigrant who came here as a teenager. while we were visiting his family in orange county this year, his mother made some traditional ukrainian cookies BY HAND with us. god, they are soooo good. they are called oreshki and are made by baking the halves, then filling them with a mixture made of nuts, leftover crumbs from making the cookies (for extra crunch), hazelnut paste, and condensed milk that has been boiled in the can for many hours to make it taffylike.


here is a finished oreshki. look how delicious that looks!

1st-Dec-2009 02:36 pm - Garlic Prawn and Spinach Pasta


My latest “thing” is meal in ones on weeknights…mainly pastas but instead of throwing together a salad, I throw in some veggies to the pasta.

I got really lazy, and I didn’t even bother to roast my tomatoes in the oven for the smokey taste. Mainly cos I wanted the garlic flavour to be intense…def not a first date meal unless well…your date is a garlic fiend too…then it is all good!

Dinner was ready in 30 minutes….and it sure hit the spot. I like it that this pasta doesn't involve any wine and instead I used the shells from the prawns to make a stock for the pasta.

It'd be really convenient if someone would explain to me why I just had to heal my best mate's bleeding hand. The wall, at least, was fine.

Katie?
Katie, should I go to this thing as Jekyll or Hyde? Will there be wizards there? Should I be Daphne or not?

[snaps compact shut]

Katie? Where are you!

Great. Now where am I? It's completely one thing to disappear and reappear somewhere else in the wizarding world, not so much in the muggle one.

Lost Recipes

Over the weekend my cousins in Queens gifted me with a recipe I had thought long lost to death. My grandmother on my dad's side passed away in the mid 90's. She was a terrible cook. All of her food was cooked until it had died a second death, turned to mush, and ceased to be palatable. She used bisquick for pizza crust for god's sake. But her pies were to die for, especially her pie crusts. Here I gift you with her recipe. I promise you the crisco makes it extra flaky and delicious, though I admit I've never encountered a recipe that encourages you to heat the fat in pie crust.

Pie Crust - makes 2 crusts

3/4c Crisco
1 Tblsp Milk
1/4c boiling water
2c flour
1 tsp salt

Scoop crisco & milk into a bowl. Add boiling water and whisk until the consistency of whipped cream. Add remaining ingredients. Mix until just combined. Turn out and knead a few times before dividing and rolling into two crusts.

I'm pretty sure she didn't even bother with chilling before rolling, what with the boiling water and all, but I'd have to verify with relations to be sure.


I love oatmeal cookies and I think they're perfect for the holiday season. They're very versatile; you can add almost any combination of things to them. I decided that toffee and white chocolate chips pair together really well, so I thought, why not throw them into some oatmeal cookies? The toffee melts a bit while it bakes, mixing in with the rich white chocolate chips and soft, chewy oatmeal cookie base, which has a hint of cinnamon and nutmeg. These cookies are absolutely heavenly, believe me! I brought them into work and everyone seemed to enjoy them, and I also gave some to my brother and a friend. They're perfect to mail as a gift, too, because they stay soft for a good amount of time. Start off your holiday season right with these cookies! Recipe on my blog at The Crepes of Wrath or after the cut.

I'd say there wasn't a chameleon on my desk when I went to bed last night, but then again, I suppose I can't really be sure of that.

Is it wrong of me to want to blow off Professor Slughorn's Christmas party in December? I know I shouldn't, that it's an honor to be invited and he really is a very sweet man. But.


It just seems so... superficial.
