yummy and simple.

I made myself blackened scallops for dinner tonight. I used the really big ones, 8 to a pound.Ten minutes preparation, tops. Butter them, coat with cajun spices, put onto a very hot griddle. By the time you manage to butter and spice the other side, they're ready to turn. Turn 'em, cook a couple minutes longer, and enjoy.

You'll want the exhaust fan on, though. Blackening food makes for lots of smoke.

I took my scallops into the living room and watched my DVD of O Brother, Where Art Thou? It's just as good the second time.

Still waiting on watching Moulin Rouge until truefireflower can come watch it with me. Getting antsy to see it though. (Hint hint.)

I just listened to the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack this afternoon. In fact, one song from it is playing on my computer right now. What a coincidence. :) I haven't seen the movie yet, though.

It's definitely worth watching. I have a CD of the soundtrack in my car, too, and listen to it fairly often.

I love the 'O Brother, Where Art Thou?' soundtrack (how does one do italics?). I like the movie, too, but I'm especially excited by old-time folk music. For similar music, but with a more female slant, I like the 'Songcatcher' soundtrack.
