My poor Charlie-Brown's-Christmas looking lemon tree, which has enough of a complex sitting next to the neighbor's fat and glossy lime tree, has been vandalized. Somebody stole one of my beautiful lemons last night. This wouldn't be quite as much of a big deal if I hadn't only had two to begin with! Bitches.
I am working my way through season 2 of House this weekend. I keep waiting for Hugh Laurie to do something funny - everytime he goes googly-eyed I get all giggly. Robert Sean Leonard is a welcome bonus... Swing heil Peter! Swing heil!!!!! Maybe when I'm done with this I'll pull out Dead Poets Society just to top everything off. Between epispodes, I've been cooking. I got a new
cookbook by
Rick Bayless as an early christmas present and every recipe in there looks good... right now I'm making a variation on the slow-cooked chicken with tomatillos, potatoes, and jalapenos, all of which I picked up for super-cheap at the market this weekend. I filled up my whole backpack with produce! Unfortunately, I didn't bother to get any lemons...
