What to do?
Was it really only six nights ago that the Pats lost? Is spring-training really starting next week? OK, so this is the only non-Pats-Sox weekend in between. What to do? First, watch the Celts. Leon Powe. I knew I liked him. Second, it's a good weekend to try out new recipes. I'm going with this tonight. The Hub Blog father's already tried it and raved about it. ... Afterward, I might watch a movie selected from this list, compiled two years ago during a similar lull between all-things Sox and Pats. ... Tomorrow and tomorrow night are gloriously free. ...

Update -- In between this week's primary/caucus results, Anali is also thinking food, pointing out a roundup of comfort-food recipes. The Prawns in Coconut Curry, Kawhai Fish Cakes, and Classic Onion Soup with Gruyere caught my attention. I almost gagged at the thought of Hamburger Gravy with Mashed Potatoes, but it looks pretty good, sort of an upside-down Shepherd's Pie with corn on the side. ...
Update II -- Just because we're in between the Pats and Sox seasons this weekend doesn't mean we can't talk about the Pats and Sox this weekend. Dan ponders the Schilling shoulder saga. Soxaholix ponders the possible omens of the Pats loss and Schilling shoulder saga.
Update III - 2.10.08 -- Tried out the recipe. Very good. But a little dry. Next time I'm using both fish stock and white wine (I used only wine last night). ...
