It's such a positive thing to do to stay excited about the science and to stay intellectually engaged in the work.<br /><br />As for the cooking, funny that you should mention bread. My last attempt to make bread didn't work very well, and I'm worried that it's the water here in College Station. I need to replace my yeast first and try an old recipe that I know and trust (a "positive control!"). So no bread this weekend but I did find an awesome tomato foccacia at the grocery store. It counts for something!Rosiecat24https://www.blogger.com/profile/07219527037186545061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-3869716695093245532010-02-15T23:12:50.967-06:002010-02-15T23:12:50.967-06:00you are so good! making a habit of paper reading ...you are so good! making a habit of paper reading each week (i haven't gotten myself to do it and am woefully behind :(), rediscovering lovely treasures, cooking up a storm... i am jealous :) maybe you even got frisky and made your own crusty bread for the soup?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13898098819208716948noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-85215147756320580982010-02-15T16:44:13.980-06:002010-02-15T16:44:13.980-06:00Thank you, Heather!

Happy Valentine's Day.
AMPD, wh...Hi everyone! Happy Valentine's Day.<br /><br />AMPD, what about Nutella + peanut butter + raspberry jam? Too much? Three's a crowd? For real? (Har har--that's a pun!)<br /><br />What I want to try is Greta's banana bread with chocolate syrup drizzled over it. Oh yes. That's got comfort food written all over it.<br /><br />Laurie, you are too cute. Somehow your "easy" cooking week is morphing into something a bit more elaborate...and delicious?<br /><br />Ammie, I've been thinking the same thing! This week is pretty open for me after Monday. Let's have a date! As for the soup, I think it's fantastic, but you must like sage! The sage makes it special. <br /><br />The (in)famous garlic, chickpea, and kale soup! By any chance were you cooking it for a special someone or two? ;-) I completely condone the use of that soup to win friends and lovers. It's stunningly good.<br /><br />Fear not, friends, that there is no post tonight! I've been wading through data all evening in preparation for lab meeting tomorrow. But I'll be back on Monday night with some thoughts on butter and a new recipe! Until then, take care and eat well.Rosiecat24https://www.blogger.com/profile/07219527037186545061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-52847099908313853162010-02-14T21:05:25.103-06:002010-02-14T21:05:25.103-06:00I'm so glad to hear you sounding so upbeat!

I just made the garlic chickpea kale soup again last night and it still ranks among my all-time favorites!ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16220553595935499440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-21907105505043140662010-02-14T20:13:42.422-06:002010-02-14T20:13:42.422-06:00Happy Valentine's Day!

I'll have to try your recipes when I'm cooking again...somehow there are a lot of dirty dishes in my kitchen for someone who claims she's not cooking.Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03433459858260551520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-8939210207670182402010-02-14T11:31:20.192-06:002010-02-14T11:31:20.192-06:00Ha!

I should dust off that recipe and make it again.<br /><br />The other thing I remember that always cracks me up is AMPD marching out to the freezer and eating chocolate ice cream straight out of the carton. You have to give the woman credit: she knows what she likes!<br /><br />Happy Saturday to you too, beautiful Nicole.Rosiecat24https://www.blogger.com/profile/07219527037186545061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6822839939627192494.post-37338448386630672042010-02-13T12:49:38.116-06:002010-02-13T12:49:38.116-06:00I LOVE Norah Jones and anything chocolate hazelnut...I LOVE Norah Jones and anything chocolate hazelnut! They are yet two more ways we are kindred spirits. Do you remember all the jars of Nutella we went through at the Mae (or was that just me???). Happy Saturday, dear friend!Nicolenoreply@blogger.com
