Cynically Optimistic

I'm house sitting this week for my landlords, and as such I have full use of their professional kitchen and home theatre. It's a bit of a shock since I haven't actually had to cook since the end of August, but I successfully grilled salmon filets and made rice and a mushroom and baby corn lemon butter dish. Gas stoves, what a concept. That and combination microwave/convection ovens. I also watched the following movies on DVD (or HBOHD): Old School, Zoolander, Adaptation, Blow, The Big Lebowski, My Big Fat Greek Wedding. Blow is an excellent movie, Adaptation is bizzare and I loved it, and Old School is cackle worthy. All in all, it was a great way to spend a rainy weekend.
