Thursday List

I am in a terribly good mood tonight, which could be the result of any of the following:

1. The sun has finally deigned to shine upon us.

2. Madame 3-yr-old made an appearance at the library today, wearing a pink tutu and black, knee-high, rubber gardening boots. And then she started talking with that sweet, earnest face of hers. She kills me.

3. Just the idea of making this strawberry panzanella from 101 Cookbooks (which is on the list for this weekend--just bought my strawberries) is making me feel giddy.

4. I attended a friend's art opening reception tonight, which combines three of my favorite things--friends, art, and cheese.

5. It is only SIX days until I fly away to the D.C. (please pronounce that as the D dot C dot, because that's how I spelled it).

6. I discovered the trailer for this film, a documentary about teenagers in Indiana. It looks very fine to me. I really hope it makes it to a theater in Utah.

7. I also discovered Hello Saferide, a Swedish music group. I'm not sure how I feel about this video, but I like the song ("Get Sick Soon"). I also like their song, "The Quiz." And the song "Something Pretty." Which is not by Hello Saferide. It's by Patrick Park. But I don't feel like making a number 8 on this list.

I love reading the recipes on 101 cookbooks! Her photos are always gorgeous and make me want to rush right out and get the stuff I need to try the latest. That hasn't actually translated to actions yet, so I'm impressed you already acquired strawberries for today's offering.

This is the first recipe that's actually propelled me out of the house for ingredients (but I've only been reading her blog for a couple of weeks). I love panzanella, though, and I've never tried a sweet version before. Mmmm.

I must check out her blog if it drove you out of the house in a desperate search for strawberries NOW. :)

What are you doing in DC? Fun or Work. I work in DC as a librarian although I do special libraries. I met Nemesis when she came out her for Computers in Libraries last year.

Chou--I think you'll like her blog. The recipe you posted today is making my list, too. Looks good! I just have to figure out how to make parsnip puree.

Abby--I'm going to DC to visit friends and keep my head from exploding at work. My email address is in my profile. Send me a note, and maybe we can meet up while I'm there.
