I’ll post my favorite quick and easy recipes as I think of them.

I’ve had enough with long winded, 3 dozen ingredient jpbs-I never make them right. Either I’m too lazy or not a very talented cook (probably co-dependent factors there), but I’ve wasted too much time and money on busted meals.

This one is easy as pie and it passes the kid test:

• 1 Pizza pie crust, dough ball, whatever you like form the grocery store
• 1lb Boneless Chicken Breast, cut up as you like and sauteed till done in a little olive oil/butter concoction
• Frank’s Red Hot
• Blue Cheese Dressing (I like Ken’s: http://www.kensfoods.com/kf/products/productView.servlet?consumerProductId=27)

Throw the ingredients on the pie crust to taste (maybe cut the franks with tomato paste or something for something milder), and bake at preheated 425ºf oven for 15-20 minutes.

Just got back, it was fun and another landmark in my long string of trips down there. The drive bakc was great. The sunset coming down the 90 was very intense, augmented by a nice Annie Lennox channel on Pandora. I broke down and gave Nancy my pristine new Moleskin which she proceeded to fill half of up with her flowers and letters and clouds. Oh well, it kept her happy. Maybe she’ll be an artist, but lately she’s been saying veterinarian and singer so we’ll see.

Busy day coming tomorrow.

I’ll try to post the stuff I watch with reviews this year. I saw some great stuff last year and meant to do this, but didn’t :/

1. Barbarians (Shudder). Cool concept. So many dumb and useless scenes. Too bad, since the actors were great.

OK all you typography snobs out there, up in arms over Ikea’s recent switch to Verdana (google ikea verdana), ask yourselves: If you had one store to shop for all of your furniture, what would it be? Ikea, right.
If you had one font to use on everything you designed, what would it be? Well, you basically have to choose a web-safe, sans-serif font to maximize utility, so here are your choices:
Arial
Tahoma
Verdana
Trebuchet MS
Lucida

Personally, I’da gone with Lucida, but Verdana’s as good as any.

Xmas in the 70s seemed warm. Maybe it was the smell of pine or what always seemed like bright sun outside. I liked all the electronic games we got.
