Filled out my bracket for World Cup 2010. I’m not predicting individual outcomes in the group stage but you can derive some results from the R16 and up bracket. Specifically I call for Ivory Coast upsetting Portugal for 2nd place in Group G, Cameroon upsetting Denmark (and then Italy!) to reach the quarters, South Africa [...]

This was probably the most fearsome dish to make for the party since I had never made it before (especially in such quantity), it was quite involved, and I thought the taste might be hit-or-miss with the crowd. (Maybe they can respond on whether it was good or not.) It is a type of daal, [...] This post will go into my personal favorite dish of the night, paneer makhani. This was the only dish I had made beforehand, so I was adequately prepared to make several pounds of this dish. This is one of my favorite dishes to make because it is so easy to make so much of and [...] We had several friends over to celebrate our housewarming Saturday evening and I thought a great way to spend the afternoon would be to cook up a set of fantastic Indian food for everyone to enjoy.

The event is supposed to be zero-emissions so we had to get to AT&T Park and wait in a massive line for biodiesel buses to take us there. It was particularly [...] I haven’t been up to much lately, to be quite honest. Mostly studying and trying to figure out what to do in grad school. I did grow a beard for two weeks. I got rid of it because coupled with my long hair I looked like a super-hobo.

The driver notified our neighbors, who were gracious enough to keep her body until we both returned. With their guidance we found a serene location to bury her Saturday [...] Moving sucks, but with one minor exception this may have been the most perfectly executed move I have ever participated in. My last day of work was on July 17. The morning of July 18, we rented a 12′ truck from Penske. We loaded the truck from 8 AM – 11 AM outside our LA apartment, [...] |
