vamysteryfanProcrastination mode once more. I haven't finished downloading all my photos yet. When I switched on the computer to do job apps, I got distracted by the shiny pretty new stories on my flist.
So what am I doing? thinking about Top Chef. The Quickfire challenge was stupid. Some of those drinks sounded more like salad dressings. Sherry vinaigrette? raspberry mint? Horrible things to do to perfectly good gin! And Bombay Sapphire is excellent gin. All it really needs is to be nice and cold and a couple of olives or maybe a lemon slice.
The main challenge was to ring changes (three) on one main ingredient. I'd have chosen chocolate for the dessert course and sucked up to the judges by using that chocolate gin thing ::flinches:: Scallops appear to be the basic black dress of Season Three. The beef trio should have won. Can't even remember what the fourth one was. And Camille wasn't nearly as bad as Sara from Jamaica.
Anyone besides me watching Eureka this season? The premiere was really decent. And Colin was adorably befuddled, as always.
Okay back to work.
