Chicken Fettucine with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce... straight to my thighs.

I am making dinner tonight, made especially appetizing by the fact that earlier I was painting and my fingers are now stained with Tahiti Blue acrylic paint which I just can't seem to Lady Macbeth off. Everyone likes a little bit of paint mixed in with their Chicken Surprise.

Or, rather, Chicken Fettucine with Roasted Red Pepper Sauce, thanks to All Recipes. I'm deviating from the recipe quite a bit, considering I'm pretty sure we don't have any fettucine and I think I used the last of the diced tomatoes in an unfortunate pasta incident a few weeks ago. I'm also thinking about using up the rest of the mushrooms in the fridge (thinly sliced) and then baking it all in cheese because.... come on. I am fairly certain you could smother anti-freeze in cheese and it would still be halfways edible. Blindingly edible, but .... honestly. How delicious.

In the meantime, I am going to go hunting for nickels and dimes to support my coffee habit. We live right by a Tim Hortons, staffed by people who are always angry and wearing too much eyeshadow, and lately I haven't been able to stop myself from half-jogging over there to grab super large coffees, watching while the woman at the drive thru yells at people for adding things to their order at the window.

ImageHi. My name is Sarah
and I live by the sea. I like pirates and vikings and my audio cassette tape player. I am 25 years old and pretty much covered in sand all the time. Also, I like cookies. My profile.

ImageHey Sarah, what are ye listening to?
Lots and lots o' stuff, like St. Germain's "So Flute" and "Ghosts" by Ladytron. I can't believe Robyn is out with new stuff and it doesn't make me want to show her love by jabbing rusted forks into my eyes. It's actually really catchy and kind of endearing. I have been looking up the songs from So You Think You Can Dance all year, too, because it's all awesome and at heart, I'm still a spandexed little dancer ready to punch Annie in the face and show Daddy Warbucks a thing or two about tap musicals.

ImageI'M READING:
Walking Dead:

    Frigging awesome. One of the best books about the Zombocalypse I've ever read (one of the only good books about the Zombpocalypse I've ever read). I think there's something about zombies that is so hard to construe via text ... I mean, honestly, you can only use the word "purtrid" so much, and the visual, awesome aid of comics really helps.

ImageI'M SEEING:
Quarantine, a movie that's kind of the equivalent to being on the Disney spinning teacup ride, except, also, there are RABID ZOMBIES ON BOARD. Honestly, I missed quite a bit of this movie because I spent a good portion of it with my head nestled into my boyfriend's armpit attempting not to vomit. The camera movement is, at times, insanely choppy and all over the place, and those of you prone to motion sickness, you might want to skip this one. I'd give it about 2 1/2 stars out of 5, because it's decent -- I'd even watch it again if I could keep the room from spinning.

ImageBOOK CLUB!:
The Kite Runner. I love this book. It wasn't necessarily a book I'd choose to read (these days I appear to be more interested in books geared towards teenage girls.), but I'm so glad I did. Beautiful writing. Next choice... I'm going to volunteer the Bell Jar because IT'S THE BEST BOOK EVER.
