Over the summer, I had dinner at the lovely Oswego Lake House, wherein the service was awful, but I was served something delicious. Now, I can’t remember EXACTLY what was in this delightful dish – but I tried it anyway.

Behold, Baked Avocado

Here’s what I want you to do (does it bug the you know what out of you when Sandra Lee says this, cause it does me).

Go ahead and halve an avocado. Remove the pit.
Dice up some Roma Tomatoes (or whatever type you have)
Drizzle said tomatoes with balsalmic vinegar
Sprinkle some Italian Herbs on there (I used dried, but would have used fresh, if I had it).
Put mixtuer in avocado
Sprinkle with Grated Mozzarella Cheese
Bake at 350 for 20 minutes
Drizzle with more balsalmic (I really love balsalmic vinegar).

Enjoy!

Remember this? Well, that iMac? That geriatric iMac has told me NO MAS. It has gone to the big Apple Playground in the sky.

I expressed my discontent with my pals on twitter, and heard this:

ninjapoodles @rhirhi – you apparently are not permitted by the universe to have access to both a computer and a vehicle. 08:16 PM October 09, 2007 from web in reply to RhiRhi

to which I responded:
RhiRhi @ninjapoodles – NO kidding. Hope to procure new machine this week. Is that too much for the universe to handle? 06:22 PM October 09, 2007 from web in reply to ninjapoodles

And, she:
ninjapoodles @rhirhi – we won’t know until we see if your V-Dub asplodes. 08:24 PM October 09, 2007 from web in reply to RhiRhi

Which, brings me to this: Car or Computer? Why not both? And, when did I become so anti-technology?

I’ll be traveling to St. Louis In November for a conference. I’ve never been there, so I am quite excited. But, this a.m. I am really excited because I just found out there is an H&M there. If you’re not familiar, H&M is the home of super cute, inexpensive clothing. Most of my work wardrobe is H&M, but I haven’t been there since my last business trip to San Francisco last year. Let the bargains roll!
