Holiday meme thingy

[conuly]

I'm not reposting the list.

1. World peace. Since I know youse guys can't deliver, I'll settle for "actions that are generally helpful to the community or world at large". Do something charitable. Do several somethings charitable throughout the year. Either make peace with whomever it is you've been fighting with or cut ties altogether. That sort of thing.

2. Any of a number of books, I'll post a nearly full list later.

3. Paid userpics, again.

4. Gifts for the babies, I'll post a nearly full list later. (Edit: THIS IS WHAT I REALLY WANT. It's all on my amazon wish list)

5. A winning lottery ticket.

6. I could use a jacket.

7. Some good recipes are always nice, especially if they're not too complicated. (Edit: Thanks guys! I can use more, of course, but thanks for what I have now! *grins*)

8. Somebody to come over here and help me clean. Again.

9. My mom to quit smoking/drinking so much caffiene. Again, you can't deliver, so I'll settle for you making efforts to improve your health or bad habits. You're my friends. I want you to live a long time.

10. Any of a number of DVDs, once more with the full list.

Edit: My amazon.com wishlist is here.
The master list of wishlists is here.

Edit again: If you need my contact info, ask for permission to see this post. I reserve the right to refuse permission for any reason. Deal with it, I'm the one not getting the present.

I would love to help with #7...but I'm being a numbnut, and can't find your address on your info page (yes, I'm that crap at finding stuff), could I have it please??

Or screw it I'll just post here...
Courgette souffle (that's Zuchinni, I think, if you're in the USA)

You need: (I apologise for the lack of proportions, it's an old family one, so bear with me!)
A large Marrow, or 4-5 medium courgettes
Butter or margerine, a pat of width about 2 thirds the length of your thumb
flour as needed
strong cheddar cheese
2 medium eggs

Chop the marrow/courgette into roughly the same size pieces, disgarding the ends. Steam or boil until soft, then liquidise.
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large sized saucepan, and then add the flour little by little until it becomes a ball/starts sticking together. Then add the liquidised courgette little by little until you get a smooth liquid that should have no lumps. Add salt, pepper and grated cheddar cheese to taste.
Now get the 2 eggs...separate the whites and yolks...the yolks can be put straight in and stirred into the mixture. Put the whites into a separate bowl and whisk until stiff, then fold them in gently. Pour into a flat cyramic(dear lord, my spelling is appaulling) dish, and put on medium-high heat for about 30 mins. When it's done it should have turned mid brown on top. I admit it looks a lil strange, but it tastes good!

That always works.

If you mean my email address, it's only viewable to friends because I never check the damn thing, so the last thing I want is people mailing me.
