Had a go at Kingdom of Loathing. It's a lame online game with terribly simplistic graphics and fall-off-your-seat hilarity in item descriptions. It's also good for those with little time to play games since there are only so many turns available in a day. Prevents addicts from playing all day, or logging on multiple times in a day. Reminds me of a GUI for an old MUD drawn by preschoolers. The item and scenario descriptions are priceless, though.
Food of the day: Steak! It's the first time I actually had a go at preparing steak for the family so I guess it was a fair attempt. Major mistake was not paying enough attention to the fat and tendon so the stuff wound up being undercooked. (oops) On the plus side, I'd managed to get the meat just browned in places and medium-well on the inside. Fluffy red without the grey-red rawness of uncooked steak. Seasoning's simple: Just pepper and a small amount of herbs. Like I keep telling my parents, good meat needs little to no sauce to bring out the flavour. My father insists on getting non-flat cuts of sirloin. I insist that such cuts wouldn't turn out good steaks. Guess it depends on how much one is prepared to fork out for a good steak.
