Like a dead star I'm burning out
And I scream in the vacuum

As the title implies, I've been listening to Splitsville recently. Definitely not my normal fare... I'm not too big on pop from the past few decades. Pandora introduced me to their song "Aliceanna"(CLICKIES!) though, and I thought it was great.

The excerpt above is from "White Dwarf", another song of theirs I like. I find the accompanying video a little tedious, but at least you can hear it...


I had a dream that I was sitting in a sparsely furnished cafeteria with a very high ceiling. It looked kind of like this, except with actual people instead of fiery splotches, and everything was farther apart.

I was sitting at the table, looking around. The employee behind the counter was making a pizza. All the ingredients were on one half of it, and he was rolling some from the filled half to the empty one. The pepperoni were stuck together like paper cutouts. Once everything was laid out, he began to press down on the top of the pizza with his palms, and then for good measure he got up on the counter and stepped on it a few times with his shoes. I was rather affronted by the unsanitary action, and glanced around to see if anyone else was seeing this.

My brother walked over, and I asked him if he had ordered a pizza. He said no, and I told him that was a relief, because the guy behind the counter just put his shoes on that one. I said that it was gross, and I thought it was good he wasn't going to eat it. We were getting along swimmingly in the dream, so there was a sense of camaraderie.

I tried making yemiser wot (the spicy Ethiopian lentil stew) today. It turned out pretty well! I thought I added a little too much salt, but everyone said it was good. We had to eat it with rice because the injera I'm trying to make needs a few days to ferment. (Side note: I'm trying to find other recipes to use teff flour in, since it would be a shame to let it go to waste. Found one for teff pie crust, so I'll update you guys on that if I make it)

I'd like to start cooking more again. So many things to try!

That's cool that you sort of illustrated your dream for us. What is teff flour?

re: You have a very good point. There is considerably less to do in this town than Vegas ... and his cousin doesn't live here so that's a plus right there.

yeah
lol yeah we don't really eat very healthy but I was more irritated by the fact that everyone got the same thing except for her getting a coke then she said because we got the other things we shouldn't get a coke. And you know it was my money I want a coke too lol

Splitsville sounds good. Will be looking at more of their stuff.
On dreams - Not sure what Freud could say about pizza ;) I myself have been having weird dreams. Mostly nightmares. Not a good sign.
But you should post pictures of food you're making. That's what I will be doing soon :)
