Recipe-blogging

A lot of bloggers like to recipe-blog. I’m not one of them, because I’m a terrible cook. Maybe I’m not terrible, but I refuse to even try, so there’s no way to find out if I’ll ever be good at it. My only food-making abilities involve great scrambled eggs, a perfect PB&J, and good steak-grilling.

Fortunately, the official VM fiancee likes to cook. For Thanksgiving, she made this tasty number.

That’s right: bacon-wrapped dates with goat cheese. They were tremendous, combining the saltiness and texture of the bacon with the sweetness of the dates and, um, the glue-like nature of the cheese, which helped the little almond bits get stuck in our teeth.

And, that’s right: there’s actually a site called “iheartbacon.com“.

I’ve heard of product tie-ins, but…

Watching the Giants-Seahawks game on Fox right now, and I’m just wondering: given that Washington state is currently searching for a couple of convicts who busted out during the weekend, maybe the Fox guys could stop promoting Prison Break so heavily during the broadcast.

Living in Sin

Just as my last night of bachelorhood wasn’t exactly filled with strippers and belly-shots, our first weekend of living in sin was pretty laid back. Our main activity was watching flicks, leading to this truly bizarre assortment of Hollywood offerings:

So I Married an Axe Murderer

Showgirls

Kill Bill, Vol. 1

Sign ‘o’ The Times

Dodgeball

My Fair Lady

The Muppet Movie

Kill Bill, Vol. 2

We moved all of Amy’s stuff here on Friday, so now we need to sequentially unpack (and, of course, make room for stuff). I can’t wait till we get to the point where we finally figure out what to do with our two copies of the Stanley Kubrick Collection DVD set.
