Food, part deux

[batskeets]

Project: Non-Disgusting Tilapia was a success! I worked from this recipe, but I only made 1 filet, and opted for olive oil and grilling instead of margarine and baking. The sauce was pretty yummy. Those filets cook *fast*, though. It got done way before the veggies did, and I was super-hungry, so it was kind of torture waiting for everything to get done, sigh.

I think I'm going to have to do a truckload of prep work for the party food... enough that I should probably do some tomorrow night, so I don't have to cram it all in on Friday. Yep, I *am* being overambitious. ::laughs::

Oh yeah, I got my photos from the shoot last Saturday in the mail! (that was fast!) I put a few that I liked on the ol' Flickr account. Hey, maybe I *can* look marketable!

It does make me think about taming the crazy haircut, though. It's going to be haircut time soon, so I'm thinking about what I want to do next! I'm kind of hoping to work something out with my new stylist where I can trade some website work for an awesome cut-and-color job. (her suggestion) The holidays are lurking out ahead, though, so I'm more reluctant to do something to my hair that Mom will hate, heh. She's cranky enough about the fact that I'm keeping it shorter these days. ;p

I wish I could do really cool things with my hair. I want cool anime hair, but there is just no way to do that with all the curl in mine. I think you should revel in the fact that you can do all those cool things, especially cause you look fabu now anyway.

Heh, well, my hair has some kinks if I don't do anything with it... I usually gotta spend 5 minutes with my flat iron to make it cooperate. ;p That's still much lower-maintenance than long hair was, though!

Aw, thanks! :D

Wah! Tilapia is one of my favorite fish. :D I like it on baguette slices with jerk sauce on top.

As always, you're beautiful!

Long hair can be fun. And short hair can be fun. Climate aside, the biggest pain is when you become so invested in one or the other that you feel like you can't change. Climate trumps all other concerns for me, ultimately. If it is insanely hot and humid, I'm going to hack all my hair off, no matter how bad it looks. If I go back to someplace hot like Africa, I'm going to cut my hair short well in advance and have a strategy for keeping it short. 'Cause at least in Benin, no one knew how to cut white people's hair.
