Damn. I can't remember the last time I posted this rarely. I'm alive, I swear!!

This upcoming weekend I'll be doing the catsitting gig. I'm sure I'll get bored at some point and end up on LJ...posting endlessly. Ha.

There was a street fair today at People's. Wheee! Note to self: it's a bad idea to drink a pint of beer on an empty stomach and then go grocery shopping. I didn't overbuy or anything, but it took me a while and I talked too long to someone. Oy.

Best thing ever: coconut milk ice cream (vanilla flavor) and strawberries. Let the ice cream soften and pop it with a butter knife into a larger bowl. Hull a pint of strawberries and cut them in half. Mix in the bowl, mashing here and there. Eat while watching the "Ariel" episode of Firefly, snuggled up on [livejournal.com profile] rikell42's bed.

Speaking of fruit, yesterday when we picked up his half-share from his CSA, I signed up to buy six pints of raspberries next week. Or it four? It's a fuck of a lot of raspberries. I'll be in heaven. The strawberries are already nearing the end of their season, dammit. I need to get to a farmer's market and buy, like, a flat of them or something. Too bad [livejournal.com profile] rikell42 doesn't have a deep freezer. My parents do, but then what? Gaaah. Need a place to freeze strawberries where someone else won't eat them. Because they're all mine, bwa ha ha ha ha.

I'm getting a recipe from a coworker for tarts. They don't seem hard--it's mostly pie crust, which I realize is tricky, but I know can be vegan-ized pretty easily, and the filling is thickened with cornstarch. In any case, I plan on making them a bunch this summer with various kinds of fresh fruit. Although I may just eat a whole thing of strawberries every day until I'm sick of them or broke!

Also good: cook a couple cloves of minced garlic in olive oil. Add a bunch of small-diced shiitake mushrooms (the mushrooms themselves were huge--they didn't cost any different than the smaller ones, it was sheer entertainment value to buy big ones), stir-fry until the mushrooms start letting out juices. Add a bunch of chopped up kale (we had baby kale!) and a bit of water if you need it, and stir-fry until the kale is done. Serve over pasta. Mmmmmmm. Easy, healthy, tasty. Just my kind of thing.
