i can has a lot of things lately.

Anyway, [personal profile] schoolpsychnerd found some curry paste somewhere, for mixing with water, and since she was at work today, I figured I'd try my hand at making it. It went pretty well, until the part where I messed up and it took an extra 45 minutes to thicken because I didn't actually simmer it during the previous stage. Once I did that, though, the sauce thickened just fine (with the addition of a bit of flour), and it turned out awesome. At least if [personal profile] schoolpsychnerd is any judge. It was Japanese curry, so it was more sweet than spicy, but I can probably add more red pepper next time. The flavor was a little weak, but I'm sure I can tweak it a bit.

You missed out, [personal profile] fiendishfanfares ^_~

I've gotten back into writing with a vengeance. I dropped my NaNo project for about six months, for various reasons, but in the past 3 days I've written another five pages, and I have plenty more outlined in my head. Maybe I can actually finish it. It should be around 80K words when it's done, which I'm told is a good think for a starting manuscript. Whether it'll be that long when it's edited is another story...

Apartments are awesome. We'll see if I say the same thing when the bills come, though...
