DineLA II part I

Be prepared for pictures and ranting...and no excuses for how long this took to post (nearly two months!).  And yes, this DineLA round is long enough to warrant two posts.  This is week 1.

CNS innervation of proximal and peripheral muscles


So, we recently had our winter formal.  It was a night of classy and not-so-classy dancing and socializing.  To make my night more fun, I decided that I should mix a little pain with my pleasure.  Cooking and heels are clearly dangerous enough on their own, so I promise to never never mix them.  Good news is that I remembered to test my finger for response to touch, pain, and temperature: No permanent damage noted.  As for my leg, damage did not extend deeper than the upper subepithelium, so yay!

Apparently, chestnuts wiggle when you try to cut them.

Third time is the charm: two harmless episodes of tripping down the stairs while running off to the formal, one not-so-harmless.

Recent kitchen improvements

Did some improvement of my own kitchen skills in preparation for DineLA.

Baked salmon with tomatoes and onions.

Blueberry flan: came out perfectly unbroken!
