Asianish and Others
I made Chinese Chicken Noodle Soup with Sesame and Green Onions for dinner, and it was pretty good. Needs straw mushrooms next time, I think.
Also watching King Kong LIves, and finally realizing that I really don’t handle Kong films well at all. I’m more upset by this than I was by Million Dollar Baby, which we finally got around to last night. That script is a fixed fight. Kong, on the other hand... Monkey just want to be. People should leave the monkey alone.
This news story about a mouse who got revenge on the man who tried to kill him by burning down his house makes me feel a little better.

I am sooo trying this soup. It's like a healthy, full-flavored version of my fave Top Ramen Chicken Sesame flavor. Yum.
Also, I'm with you on Million Dollar Baby. Took me a long time to watch, and I found myself Googling various disability rights groups' editorials during the final third, just to be sure that what was annoying me was annoying them. Makes me want to do a disability rights/issues-themed comp class again...

Well, if you’re going to make it I’d recommend that you skip the part where they insist you must sautee the napa cabbage. Ain’t no need. Also, I think this needs a little hit of more flavor, but I’m not sure quite what yet. Maybe I just want more garlic because I think there’s never too much garlic.

It's nice to know that I wasn't the only one perverse enough to feel the same way about the mouse and the house fire.
