October 5-6, 2013 – This week’s cooking class was about grilling, so I decided to grill some meat this weekend. We did a London broil in class, so I also did a London broil at home. Except we grilled it. So I guess it’s a London grill. And except we’re in Seattle, so I guess that makes it a Seattle grill. Which I’m pretty sure is also the name of a restaurant.
Editor’s Note: So I found my old Disgaea 4 journal notes, just in time for Disgaea D2 to come out next week. So I figured I’d post them up to break up the monotony and let you know what I thought of Disgaea 4 while I played it.
There are lots of spoilers after the cut, so don’t click unless you’re ready.
Saturday, September 28, 2013 – This is another cooking class cooking practice. I’ve always wanted to learn to make pasta sauces. (Not sure why. There’s no backstory here.) And this week, we made a tomato vodka pasta sauce in class. So I decided to replicate this recipe on my own.
Saturday, September 21, 2013 – This is not so much a “cooking experiment” as much as it is practice for cooking class. This week in cooking class: soups and stocks. So I made a crab bisque.
Saturday, September 14, 2013 – So I haven’t cooked for my friends in a while, and Mid-Autumn Festival (aka Mooncake Festival) is coming up. I wonder if there’s a solution that solves both my problems. Nope, can’t think of anything.
Sunday, September 9, 2013 – Some of you have seen this already, but for most of you, this is your first look into what I’ve been working on for the past few weeks.
Saturday, August 31, 2013 – In the last 4.5 years, I’ve made a lot of chocolate chip cookies. But this is the first time I’ve made double chocolate cookies. (Or hell, the first time I’ve made chocolate cookies.)
Now that Futurama is over (again), I’m compiling a list of my top 10 episodes.
10. Calculon 2.0
9. The Six Million Dollar Mon
8. Meanwhile
7. Bender’s Big Score
6. Game of Tones
5. Jurassic Bark
4. The Sting
3. The Devil’s Hands Are Idle Playthings
2. Godfellas
1. Luck of the Fryrish
A few things worth noting. I rated Jurassic Bark awfully low. It’s only the 5th best Futurama episode. I know Jurassic Bark makes number one on a lot of lists, but I’ve always said Luck of the Fryrish, Godfellas, and Devil’s Hands were my favorite episodes (to the point that if any of these episodes came on the air, I would drop whatever I was doing and watch them). And The Sting is just awesome. And Jurassic Bark comes in just after those.
The other thing to note is the distinct lack of The Late Philip J. Fry, which commonly shows up as people’s favorite new Futurama episode. But most people haven’t seen Calculon 2.0, Game of Tones, or Meanwhile.
The last thing to note is that the 4 new Futurama episodes on my list are all from season 7. To be honest, I don’t remember much of season 6. Probably because it hasn’t shown up in reruns very often. (Which reminds me, we need more reruns.)
So now that Futurama is over, what am I going to do? Well, I think Joe TV and Comedy Central each show reruns once a week. Plus, I’m finally going to collect all the Futurama DVDs and Blu Rays, so I can watch random episodes whenever I went. Because Futurama is awesome.
So now that you’ve seen my list, let me know what you’re favorite Futuramas are.
Also ALL GLORY TO THE HYPNOTOAD. *clap clap clap clap*
