I still haven't mastered the art of pressure cooking. When Mom makes vats of black beans for Christmas Eve and see the little plastic tab at the top of the Hitachi going shhhhhh I get scared.

lol usually when i have the desire to cook beans it's like i want these NOW and now TOMORROW

althea and (donna rouge), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:35 (twelve years ago) link

not*

althea and (donna rouge), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:35 (twelve years ago) link

Yeah, I'm far too much an impulse cooker. It was all I could do to make a big batch of noodle salad for my lunches this week.

Eric H., Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:37 (twelve years ago) link

yeah i never know what i want to eat until...i want to eat it! i don't understand how i could plan meals a day or more in advance.

lex pretend, Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:42 (twelve years ago) link

It would take considerable training to prepare something and then ... gulp ... NOT eat it.

Eric H., Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:44 (twelve years ago) link

Is that where the glass of wine comes in?

Eric H., Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:45 (twelve years ago) link

jeez it's just fuel, ppl

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:45 (twelve years ago) link

you can cook dried benas without a pre-soak, it takes longer tho. also soaking beans allows them to start germinating so they release some of the enzymes that cause gas, so soaked beens are less fart-making. #protip #farts

i think this is serious (elmo argonaut), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:48 (twelve years ago) link

hmmmmm

farting is one of the best parts about eating beans

I realize it's quite possible I should have been a monk.

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:56 (twelve years ago) link

I've had that thought before, and then I realized I was only being vain.

Eric H., Wednesday, 14 March 2012 15:57 (twelve years ago) link

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 16:05 (twelve years ago) link

so soaked beens are less fart-making. #protip #farts

althea and (donna rouge), Wednesday, 14 March 2012 16:16 (twelve years ago) link

Yes, just make sure you drain and rinse them well after soaking.

~~conversation with the chinese lady across the street~~

*10 mins of unrelated topics*

"do you have a girlfriend?"

"uhh, no. i'm gay anyway."

*momentary confusion* "why?"

*momentary confusion* "uhh, that's just the way i am"

*momentary confusion* "oh. okay!"

*previous conversation resumes*

The Reverend, Thursday, 15 March 2012 02:46 (twelve years ago) link

it's cracking me up now, but "why?" really threw me offguard for a minute

The Reverend, Thursday, 15 March 2012 02:47 (twelve years ago) link

in other news, i haven't cooked enough lately. i get lazy when i'm back home.

The Reverend, Thursday, 15 March 2012 02:50 (twelve years ago) link

i like that conversation

surm, Thursday, 15 March 2012 02:51 (twelve years ago) link

i also just like that u were having a 10min+ conversation about unrelated topix with the chinese lady across the street

surm, Thursday, 15 March 2012 02:52 (twelve years ago) link

my kind of man tbh

surm, Thursday, 15 March 2012 02:53 (twelve years ago) link

oh, she's a sweetheart. mostly we talked about her son, who i've never seen despite living across from him for a year and a half. she says she worries about him because he barely speaks english and hasn't made friends here and stays inside playing video games all day. we also talked about bussing and biking foibles.

The Reverend, Thursday, 15 March 2012 03:11 (twelve years ago) link

she has ducks that i sometimes have shoo out of my driveway.

The Reverend, Thursday, 15 March 2012 03:11 (twelve years ago) link

That seems like a really good interaction about gayness.

IMO in a perfect world being gay wouldn't be totally normal and unremarkable, but it would be perfectly OK. I would love it if it were OK to acknowledge that buttfucking and dating the same sex is sort of odd - and maybe even a little funny* - but in no way a bad thing. Meh, so you do sex and love in a way that most people don't, whatever.

* As Donna Dasher in Female Trouble, sex is all about "ludicrous positions."
