After a second try, my Thai green curry is perfect and hands down the best meal I make. It's fast, splendid and can be made VEGAN for you damn hippies that sometimes visit me.

...I was frying tofu in Thai fish sauce... it smells pretty close to...ummmm..girl. Hey,

randomdreams I bet if you fire up the ice cream maker all that sugar and cream would balance it out and... we'd make a million dollars. Throw in bacon bits and we could buy that island somewhere. Madagascar maybe. They have lemurs.
I've washed my hands like 6 times since then and they still smell like fish sauce.

"I got you a present."
"Really? What is it?"
"You have to guess. What are you always telling me?"
"Take a bath?"
"No, when I have an idea, what do you say?"
"What the fuck is wrong with you?"
"Something nice."
"Are you completely insane?"
"Nicer."
"Does it involve monkeys?"
"Close."
"EYEBALLS!"
"Yes!"
I got eye shaped steel bits.

Conversations that have been relayed to me:

"Who was that psycho girl that kept attacking people with a baseball bat and demanding money?"
"Oh.. my girlfriend."

B: "Nikkis ass is dangerous."
G: "What's bad about her ass?"
T: "Nothing. She's a white girl with a black girls ass. You could bounce quarters off it. When she walks through the room, everything stops."
B: "Except for security!"
T: "Yeah, she gets us kicked out of a lot of places."

NOBODY is allowed to bounce quarters off my ass. Maybe Maggie if she really wanted to.

Can I try your green curry recipe?

Do you want me to give you the recipe or are you going to fly here and try it?

Alot of my recipes use measurements like "some" and "Some more." :)

1 1/2 heaping tsp thai green curry paste (try this amount before you think your ballsy enough for more spice, I used 2 heaping tsp and my tummy hurts now, good flavor but achey tummy)
1 can coconut milk
LOTS of fresh sweet basil, chopped
1 can baby corn, halved
1 can water chestnuts
1 can thinly sliced bamboo shoots
1 block firm tofu, cut into squares or chicken.
1 thinly sliced green pepper
(some recipes call for 3 TBS fish sauce, I don't like fish sauce)

Cook some Jasmine rice.
In pan combine coconut milk & curry paste. Cook 5 min. Add everything else, cook 10-15 min. Serve right away with rice.

Leftovers pretty darn good.

Nifty tip: If you let your cans of coconut milk sit long enough, and then open them carefully, you'll discover that the coconut cream has all settled out. You can make a superior curry using just coconut cream.

Todd and I were talking about that last night, except he steals all the coconut cream and licks it off the top.

1 block firm tofu, cut into squares or chicken

that must take a lot of time and skill, cutting the tofu into chicken shapes..
*ducks and RUNS*

Cookie cutters.

but that takes all the FUN out of it!

Yeah, I've been tempted to try durian ice cream for this reason ("Durian: smells like him, tastes like her!") That's a somewhat uh acquired taste, I suspect.
Steel eyeballs? That's very cool.
