MERRILL-LY WE ROLL ALONG

Well, you've read the notes, the notes rolled along Merrill-ly, and now it is time for you to post until the cows come home - they're currently singing How Much is that Cow in the Window?

Good morning, all! Another fitful night of sleep: too much DEAREST ENEMY tsuris, I suspect. An inquiry has been sent out for our leading lady, I'm happy to hear. I am concerned about the situation with our juvenile lead; Oevnden was a great idea, but my Dublin agents don't move so fast as I'd like - I've been pushing for castng availability since mid-February and now it's the end of March! - but I have my fingers crossed it will work out. Keep them Ovenden vibes coming!

So, at 5:45 I was ready to get out of bed and get to work: I'm listening to the masters of the Herbert CDs 1&2 on my iTunes now. I have to hit Toyland this morning and use the scanner. When I return, I will listen to CDs 3&4 on my stereo system, so I can give a thumbs up or down to New World Records. I hope to nap a bit: tonight I'm seeing PIPE DREAM at Encores! and I'd like to be awake for it.

That's my day. I need my meds.

And coffee!

I believe I had what is known as a tantrum last night.

Hope that does not happen again.

Well, I am up and waiting for the Connecticut radio station to call.  Whilst I wait, I am listening to BK's close personal friend, the late Julius Wechter, who just had two cool mini-LPs released in Japan of his Baja Marimba Band stuff.

Interview went well, I think.  They've asked me back.  Maybe I can talk about Allison Hayes.  ;)

Maybe the sing along could be Love Makes the World Go 'Round......since I didn't see it in the songlist, although I may have missed it.

A personal favorite. My sister hauls out the bottle at about 10 each morning for a little way to greet the rest of the day. A most civilized habit.

Congrats, JMK, that all went well. And I'm sure you used that 7-second delay to your best advantage.

I almost had a big cooking disaster.  This morning I was making a pasta salad for tonight. When i cooked the pasta, right after i took it out, i put it under freezing cold water, thinking that then i could just mix it with the rest of the ingredients right away.

Well i had tasted the pasta hot and it tasted fine. But after i mixed it with the other ingredients, the past was hard and uncooked. And it was already mixed with oil and vinegar and everything.

I don't know what happened. MAybe it was a bit undercooked when i first tested it hot. Maybe the cold water did something to it.

Anyhow I ended up separating the pasta from the other ingredients (it was still lightly coated with oil, vinegar.... and i put it in a wok. ANd just kept stirring it (i added a bit extra olive oil to the pan).  I think it cooked it the rest of the way through. So i am pretty sure it is alright.

Has anybody else had this happen to them before? Is it a big no-no to put the pasta under the freezing cold water right away? Was it bad to mix it right away? I know last time i made pasta salad i let the pasta cool before mixing it with the rest of the ingredients.

that's a new one on me, Jennifer, but I wonder if, with the sauce on it, you might have been able to soften it in a microwave? I don't have a microwave, so don't hold me to that. I like your idea, since it had oil on it, of using the wok.
