I made a Trader Joe's run on the way home from class last night, and picked up a whole bunch of veggies (carrots-a bag for 89 cents! :shocked:, celery, zucchini, tomatoes, mushrooms)....now if only I would get around to actually making it. I guess my incentive would be that last weekend in NYC it went from like 70F to like <50 overnight, forcing me to go from short sleeved shirt under a button down to a winter coat in one day-and I don't have a pot big enough to make soup
As far as squid goes....um, I don't eat seafood. I have no problem with the occasional Trader Joe's cod fillet or philadelphia roll...

...how the hell would I make basmati rice without the use of a rice cooker though?
