today's mood: faceplant on my desk

to do this week 

Grocery store 

Vacuum 

Make something with eggs - pastry cream and cake? or fruit? 

Pick up seed trays from home depot 

Plant things 

Finish planting plan for spring crops

sidejob work – email again 
make granola

I'm still working on last week's meatloaf, plus the brownies. so maybe I'll pick up potatoes and finish off the week with that. 

I think I'm going to run through home depot today and that way I can plant whenever. I also need to do sidejob work tonight. or maybe the grocery store is more important. ugh.

Do you like meringues?

You have to really stick to the ritual (cold, completely degreased bowl) but there IS a ritual and it generally works. And it'll use up a lot of eggs.

I've made meringues many times, mostly as cake aeration. I dislike soft meringues and think hard meringues are okay. I don't find they use up a lot of eggs because they inflate so much. I have a hard time eating all the hard meringue I can make and frankly, it's not that interesting. I don't consider them good enough to give away. It also has to be eaten relatively quickly because of the humidity.

So eh.

Ok, meringue blah.

(or maybe bah.)

Straight-up hard boiling? have to peel them, but quick and simple and useful for lunches/snacks?

Nah, don't worry, I have plenty of ideas to do with them. It's mostly finding the time to bake things. I've also got a willing audience for eating anything that me and Jade can't finish.

I just haven't decided what yet :P
