eleneariel: (cooking)
Not about food: I really, really, really, really did not want to go to the gym tonight. And then I did.

About food: I've been dashing through Ruth Reichl's books (no wonder I've been constantly hungry all week.) Garlic and Sapphires. Read it! I might become a restaurant critic for the disguises alone.

About food: I have this idea for a baked stuffed pumpkin. It actually started with reading how Reichl stuffed a pumpkin with bread, cheese, and ... wine? mushrooms? Something. Anyway, that sounded delicious, but I don't like soggy bread, and half my family doesn't like mushrooms, and I'm the only one who drinks wine, so what I think I'll do is hollow out the pumpkin (toasting the seeds for other uses, naturally - great on salad) and fill it with apples, oranges, pears, walnuts, and possibly pineapple. I dunno. Is the pineapple too much? Of course lots of butter, brown sugar, and spices will be involved. I think it could be good, but I'm just not sure about that pineapple. I might throw cranberries in instead. I'll take pictures, assuming it doesn't catch fire in the oven and burn into a pumpkin-shaped cinder or something.

About food: I also want to make some ravioli for Sunday dinner, but I can't decide what to stuff it with. Ideas? I'm tired of the same old spinach-cheese filling. I thought about pumpkin filling, but that's a little much with the stuffed pumpkin as well. Cream cheese and green onions, maybe? 

About food: I'm also doing curried potatoes, which I'm not sure is an actual dish or something I made up.

Not about food: I filled up my gas tank for a mere $17.50. Yes.
