Mayday?

So basically this past week has consisted of three things:

• Reading Rough Trade stories as they are published (which I’m loving, by the way. There’s some awesome stuff coming out of RT this round).
• Binging Supernatural and knitting.

I’m liking it so far, Supernatural. Okay, a little more than like, but not quite at ‘love’ yet. I’m anxiously awaiting the arrival of Castiel, but I still have about 2/3s of season 2 to watch before he joins the show, according to IMDB.

As for the knitting, I still haven’t settled on whether this will become a blanket sweater or just plain blanket. What do you think of it so far?

Yes, it’s folded right now. Wasn’t in the mood to try to wrangle the whole piece and try to get it all in the picture 😉

Oh, something else we did this week was getting foods we don’t normally eat (but should). I got adventurous and bought an avocado. Mind, I’ve tried avocado in a quesadilla before and did not like it at all, but I do like guacamole. So now we have to try to figure out a way to eat the thing and have me like it. Any recipes/suggestions are welcome.

Same goes for sweet potato. Not normally a huge fan, but they are better for our health so we figured we’d give it a shot. Not counting the classic (which neither of us likes) sweet potato casserole generally had around the holidays, please.

Haven’t gotten them yet, because we couldn’t find any good ones, but – and I hate to say this because yuck – beets.  Anyone have any good ways of eating beets? I do not like them pickled, that much has most definitely been established. I’ve had other ways before but it’s been so long that I don’t remember them, just that I have tried… something.

So  yeah, calling all cooks 😉
