Apparently I blog in my dreams.
I had one of those weird dreams last night. I don't remember all the details but I do remember that for some reason I went on a last minute trip to Ecuador.
I remember debating in my dream how I would blog about this.
I debated between two options.
Title 1: did i mention...
Title 2: btw...
Post: I'm in Ecuador!!!
How weird am I?
Oh, and btw...did i mention...
I'm in Texas!!!

my new obsession
Grilled fruit. I can not explain how delicious this is. I've grilled up some peaches twice this week. I looked at tons of variations and finally came up with this creation.
Halve the peaches. Sprinkle generously with sugar. Let them sit for a bit while the sugar dissolves. Grill the peaches flesh side down for about 2 to 3 minutes. Then turn over and grill for about 1-2 minutes more. Take them off the grill and then drizzle with molasses. Serve with crème fraîche. I don't think I had really ever had crème fraîche before as it is not widely available and because of the cost is mainly used in high end cooking. So I decided to make some of my own. It is sort of a lighter tastier version of sour cream. It was totally worth it. I was the perfect compliment to the grilled fruit.
Crème Fraîche
To make your own is very easy. Using a glass container, start out with heavy cream (i actually just used regular whipping cream and it was fine). Then add buttermilk.
I added 2 tablespoons of buttermilk to my one cup of cream. I stirred it up a bit covered it with plastic and then let it sit overnight at room temperature. Everything I read assured me this is perfectly safe and that the good bacteria cultures in the buttermilk help stave off the bad ones. About 16 hours later it was a thick delicious cream.
I plan on making it all the time now. I plan on trying this with nectarines, plums and apricots. Yum, yum!

finally finished!
My task for the last three days has been to go through a list of around 200 game development studios, find there website and find out if they are hiring. I didn't think it would take me this long but it did. That was one time consuming process. But I'm happy to say, I just finished and mailed the list off to Quinn!
