You know, people accuse me of being negative all the time, but
your post is truly negative. You could have posted, "Anyone cooking
anything?", without all the negative intro hoopla. The truth is that
without much of what you call bullshit many of the newsgroups people
know would not exist. But I agree there are some idiotic posts in
here. Those are the ones I come here for, other than when I have a
genuine question or comment about food, which actually does happen now
and then.

Answer: I am not cooking this week. I'm taking off from that.
Yesterday I bought some inexpensive chinese take-out food and doctored
it up as well as increased it's quantity by adding fresh cilantro,
napa cabbage, scallions, fresh smashed garlic, cayenne, and lime
juice. I got some Lo Mein, and by the time I was through I got 4 good
meals out of it even though it's meant for 2.
