Life is better than death, I believe, if only because it is less boring, and because it has fresh peaches in it. - Alice Walker

One of my few really useful skills is that I can cook. Given enough time and ingredients, I can actually feed myself, and do it better, and cheaper than most restaurants. This is especially important as a poor college student, because otherwise, it would be easy to spend four years on the pizza and pasta diet, and let's face it: who really wants to graduate looking like an Italian matron?
I've been working on coconut curries, lately. There's enough variation in the spices that I put into them that I never quite seem to get sick of it. So far, the last couple of weeks, I've curried the crap out of vegetables, tofu, chickpeas, and anything else I can get my hands on, and I'm having a blast with it.
