Went to the Congaree again today, this time sans Chris since he's off in Pensacola trying desperately to unfuck his mom's computer. (LOL.) Took a ton of pics; I'll probably post some tomorrow but in the meantime I'm just going to taunt you with the dinner I had when I got back:


(click for high res)

Roasted turkey tenderloin marinated in a smoked tomato and mustard sauce, with lightly stir-fried asparagus, broccoli, sugar snap peas, cauliflower, red bell pepper, yellow squash, and carrots. Mmmmmm. Not pictured: the fresh banana/strawberry/orange smoothie I made to tide me over 'til dinner.

Re: Well??

Simple really: get fresh turkey tenderloin, marinate in something good for 24 hours (the marinade I used was a tomato/garlic/mustard/vinegar/oil mixture), put under the broiler in the oven for 10 minutes per side.

As for the veggies, well, seriously, lightly stir-fry and that's about it. A little bit of oil, a touch of lemon and some crushed red pepper, stir-fry on medium. I ended up putting a cover over mine for a minute or two towards the end to get the big veggies (broccoli/carrots/cauliflower) a little more tender.

I just ended up buying her a new one.

Also, I'm getting on the road to drive home in like twenty minutes. Tom should be excited about that. IT'S GO TIME CAT!

Agreed. I would have loved nothing more than to just get her a mac mini but she is so set in her ways she would freak. I JUST NOW got her to switch to firefox after years of literally yelling at her for using IE.

I got her a dual core 3GB Dell running Vista. If you switch all the bubblefuck fluffery off/to "classic" Vista is honestly not completely terrible to use. I couldn't attest to anything other than basic usage however.
