So Long, Farewell, Auf Wiedersehen, Goodbye

Lately it seems like close friends are leaving me on a relatively routine basis. I suppose that's the nature of getting older...more and more people strike out on their own and end up away from me. I've tried to come up with some sort of way to get people to stick around longer, but short of contractual agreements or empty threats of some sort, I really can't think of anything that may work.

To add to the growing list of all of the departures, my dear German friends Katharina and Kerstin left this past Friday. While every friend that leaves is rough, these two leaving were perhaps the worst to date. Why is that? They live in freaking Germany! At the very least, they are a day and a thousand plus dollars away. That's pretty rough. Throw in the fact that they were awesome adventure buddies (you would rarely hear either of them say no to anything) and my first legitimate friends from another country, and I'm suddenly on the market looking for new foreign pals who love going out and doing whatever.

That is not a market Anchorage is rich in.

So if you know any cool Danish people living in the Anchorage area with a hankering for new experiences, send them my way. Until then, I'll be lamenting the departure of my dear Germans. Auf Wiedersehen, friends.

Meal #2: Shrimp Fried Rice

My second attempt at making elaborate, tasty meals every Sunday was another solid entry. This week I went back to the well of Jaden Hair's The Steamy Kitchen Cookbook and went after her recipe for Shrimp Fried Rice. Given the dearth of quality Chinese restaurants in Anchorage, it seems like it'd be a good idea to learn how to make some quality chow for myself. I'm pretty sure it was already the best fried rice I've had in town (file that one under "sad but true").

I learned a lot on this recipe though. I chose to go with brown rice instead of white rice that the recipe asked for. Brown rice is a healthier alternative, but it comes with one major negative: it takes a long time to cook. To quote Jay-Z, I got no patience and I hate waitin', so brown rice and I have a tendency to not get along. My desire to make the meal go faster goes very poorly with the 50 minutes you likely should wait for brown rice to settle properly. Somewhat predictably, it ended up not combining with the water perfectly and led to some less than perfected rice.

Given that it's shrimp fried rice, that's an important misstep. While all of the flavors throughout combined very well, the undercooking of the rice and not putting enough green onions in there led this meal to not reach the peaks that it could have. Still, a tasty meal that was incredibly filling to eat while watching Shaun of the Dead this evening.

How's that for a slice of fried gold?
