They're not great, just okay, but they'll do in a pinch. It's just 15 minutes in the oven (or something like that). Mmmm, can you eat jalapenos in your condition? I won't be having them at the party, but I am making some Thai-Mex crossover salsa as an experiment to tide people over till the bird is done. @sarah: Yeah, I was a serious hair removal freak. But the arm thing was the first to go. It's a pain in the...er... elbow?, although after several years of waxing my arms, the hair grows in much thinner on them than it used to. @rita: The tag cloud is from the Simple Tagging wordpress plugin. And I feel a little more free about blogging about Charlie than Rainer, since Rainer has work colleagues who might stumble upon this blog. But it could also be that only about 1/4 of the posts are properly tagged at the moment. ;-) @cliff: You can get them in the freezer section in Real.

I ate jalepeno poppers at least twice a week when I was pregnant.</blockquote> Whoa, where did you get those? Were they any good? You know how Sarah and I feel about TexMex in Germany — it's so terrible that we resort to making our own (which I personally consider to be at the opposite end of the spectrum from the locally available stuff, but I'm biased). Did you have to deep-fry them yourself? Oven-bake them? Make them yourself, or happen upon them "<em>in your grocer's freezer</em>" (who says that anymore outside of a commercial)? Most importantly, will there be any at Thanksgiving Dinner at your house and/or what do I have to do to make that happen?
