I start working in a week and a half.
Having said that, I'm going to take a long ass nap.

Just polished off a heapin' helpin' of a traditional Portugese dish I made from a recipe I found on the net.
I turned this lot, bought specially for the occasion:
and this (which didn't fit into the first photo):
into this:
Et voilà - I became the proud father of a bouncing baby Chicken Vindaloo. I'm hoping to get some of my power of speech back by Monday.
There's loads left over if anyone wants some.

That does look portuguese nom nom!
But the amount of spices on your first photo doesn't make that much sense... way too many!

I didn't use all of them; just a spoonful of each. And one is an optional extra.
Besides, I was going for melt-yer-gums anyway. Even then, I've had far hotter - this one was rather mild for my taste.

Never had DT's but it sounds delicious...
Only kidding - I know exactly what it is and the answer is still no, never.
The news in my OP has come and gone, though something similar is looming up on the horizon. Since the situation between me and Shell (grammar!) is vastly improved out of all rational proprtion, I'm crossing my fingers that we can pull something out of the mixed metaphor quite soon.

I just got home from my condo inspection; all in all it went pretty well - nothing majorly costly that has to happen right away, and only one thing that's proabbly going to be pricey, but I can put it off, and the only downside is that some of the stuff that needs to be done is in the crawl space and I don't do crawlspaces. (Spiders.)
Pretty happy.
