So...quiet weekend. LJ was down. I didn't do much. Bought [livejournal.com profile] witchyspyce her birthday cake (and tiara!) on Saturday night. Did approximately a metric buttload of laundry Sunday. Sunday night was the Spyce Girl's birthday bash. Ladies and gentlemen, I did tell you I suck at bowling. And I meant it. I bowled two games, and the BETTER score of the two was 29. I take comfort in the fact that only one person got over 100. [livejournal.com profile] geoogo neatly kicked everyone's ass.

So...martinis that got progressively stronger throughout the night, good beer, good munchies, and good company were enough to make up for the fact that I can't handle big balls to save my life. W00t! I will have to upload and share the photos I took.

On a completely unrelated note: you can't always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, you just might find that Au Bon Pain DOES have chicken noodle soup when you're really craving it. Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Now...if only naptime came after lunchtime. I am so fucking tired I can barely think.

I like that title "au bon pain".

French for "With Good Bread" I think.

"At the (place of) good bread" is a more accurate translation. And their bread is pretty yummy too.

Mmm. Crusty bread. I should buy some.

I bake an incredibly good crusty bread, goes great with any soup :)

I have dough defrosting even as we speak.

Ooh. I do have to go to the grocery store tonight...I may have to pick up a loaf of bread. I haven't really had time to experiment with baking.

My dad makes great crusty bread. I think he puts pans of water in the oven with the bread and the steam makes it crustier.

Yeah it is a bit cold out so a nice soup and loaf of bread would make a great evening ;)

If you ever need tips on baking just let me know ;)

Yeah if you wet the crust it will cause it to be more crusty, and the pan of water beneath will keep it moist and also contribute to a good crust aswell.
French bread for instance can have an egg wash applied or sometimes it is just brushed with water.

This bread I have is a sourdough and I think I may make a creamy pumpkin soup from the ton of frozen pumpkin that I have on hand.

Miso soup is one of my all time favorites.
