So You Think You Can Dance

Tim’s Wasabi flavored Potato Chips

Harry Potter (books, essays, fanfic, movie spoilage, podcasts, wizard rock – I’m soaking in it)

Pina Coladas (I just came back from 2 weeks on Maui)

YouTube

Television Without Pity

IMDB

Netflix

Beastie Boys (compare/contrast of newer material with the older stuff)

r.e.m. sidenote – I caught their induction into the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame and cried like a baby.
It made my year that Mike Mills was there.

I’ve been obsessed with cooking shows. Top Chef, Hell’s Kitchen, The Next Food Network Star.

Chaim Potok booka.

Grilled Chicken Sandwiches. No lettuce, add swiss.

Glenn Beck. The man is on radio and tv for 6 hours a day. And I spend time on his forum. Way too much time.

My mother makes the best German pancakes. I’m a big fan of the buttery-eggy-sweet type of confections. German pancakes. Crullers. Custards. Cream puff shells.

Tracy M – I have a great recipe for Dutch Babies. We call them german pancakes. Email me and I can get it for you or post it here. Simple tho.

Cube of butter in a pan and into the oven at 400 degrees,

Mix 6 eggs, some milk (don’t recall of the top of my head) a small amount of flower.

once butter is melted and hot, pour the batter into the butter and back into the oven. The batter will puff out the sides, and should be done in a few minutes.

Top with powdered sugar, syrup, jam, strawberries, cream, or whatever.

Another obsession: Spooks/Mi-5 – used to be spooks in uk, mi-5 here. No longer on A&E, but thanks to netflix I can get the episodes except for the last few series.

Caesar salads.

Toys my son isn’t quite old enough for (transformers, legos, etc)

Heather: Totally. FHL: The Jimi is beloved by hipster-43 folders/GTD-graphic design freaks. I can only aspire to such freakdom. Although to be honest, I find that GTD works quite well for me in my new job. And the Jimi is very functional and decent looking for what I need for the price.

Hmmmm. Seems we all have these little obsessions.

I eat one thing at a time on my plate, until it’s gone, then start on the next thing.

White paint. Loving the white paint these days.

Stevie Ray Vaughn. Seriously in the grove lately.

Grapefruit anything. Food, lotion, soap, cleaner, oil, candy, Mentos, whatever. Grapefruit.

Lemon crunch sorbet. Lemon sorbet with crushed up Lemonheads. Mmmmmmmm.

Cast iron pans- well seasoned and well loved.

Dutch babies. I have yet to perfect this Saturday morning darling, but we may all die for my trying.

Apothecary jars. Old ones.

Yard sales.

What’s the culture on the Jimi? I find myself in need of a new wallet and those look pretty cool. I do enough stuff already that my wife thinks is immature, so … tell me more, please. =)

My own little mini-obsession right now are these True Lime packets I got at the grocery store. Adds a lime flavor to any drink.

I had a Hex obsession until they got rid of the main character. That ended it for me. =P
