Well, I wouldn't call it 'my' sofrito...I always have to google a recipe on the internet machine, but it's within striking distance of your recipe. I really just discovered it in the last few months, it's a good way to get that Mirepoix (carrots, celery, onion) or Cajun "trinity" (green pepper, onion, celery) type addition quickly/in small amounts without doing the whole thing in each recipe. I'd say my recipe tomorrow will be 2 green peppers, one red, an anaheim, one bunch of cilantro, chopped garlic to equal 5-6 cloves...and whatever herbs/spices I feel like throwing in.

Same here. I'll sometimes add sage, coriander, etc. 00, you do have a good grasp on your spices/seasonings. Props to you!

Heh...well, I'm no classically trained chef, but I do like to play around. Speaking of which, take a lookit the cinnamon sticks I got at Costco yesterday!

The night I got married, my wife said I utter the word "Tarnation" in my sleep.

Strangest thing I ever heard anyone utter in their sleep was CWW#1 muttering something about a "Robert Goulet shirt". WTF? Of course she heard voices in her head so maybe it wasn't so strange.
 
I'm not proud of this, but I once checked my friends email account to get some insider information. I did it to see what he and a mutual friend had conspired with for gameplans in an upcoming batch of Tecmo Bowl games. Came out in shotgun with Dallas 3 or 4 times in a row, and man, I was ready for it. Eh, depravity sometimes knows no bounds.
 
My boss and his wife have both told me that often has conversations in his dreams with me, evidently I am the only one that he does this with.

I don't know you, but I think I like you.
 
Went out to dinner tonight with 2/3 of the butts from the bus. We went to Mongolian Buffet. I'm in heaven - they had cuttlefish sushi, and my friend discovered a pot on the corner of the sushi bar that contained pickled octopus. I haven't had that in years! Between the two of us, we probably decimated their supply. It was SOOOOOOOOOO good...as good as I remembered from San Francisco. :) :) :)
