I used too much water for the breading mix on my pork chops, but in the end, with my clever cooking skills at hand, I managed to save them. They were tasty even if they lost some of the seasoned coating. I have more batter so next time they will be perfect. Better than Shake and Bake, and better for my conscience too.
In other news, I am truly amazed at what Apple has been adding to the iTunes Music Store (ITMS), which is now available for Windows 2000 and XP users too. They are SO cool! They have been adding things each week since it started, but here is a peek of what they added this past Tuesday:
Bauhaus-Mask
Cocteau Twins-Stars and Topsoil
Dalis Car-The Waking Hour
David Fair & Jad Fair-26 Monster Songs For Children
David J-Songs From Another Season
Elefant-Sunlight Makes Me Paranoid
Gary Numan-Dance (and also Tubeway Army-Tubeway Army)
Gus Gus-Gus Gus vs T-World
Love and Rockets-Express, Love and Rockets, Seventh Dream of Teenage Heaven, Sweet FA
Peter Murphy-Cascade, Love Hysteria, Should the World Fail to Fall Apart
Pixies-Bossanova, Complete "b" sides, Pixies @ BBC, Trompe le Monde
The Charlatans-Between 10th and 11th, The Charlatans, Up to our Hips
The Creatures-Hai!
This Mortal Coil-Blood
There were a few others that were worth mentioning, but I got lazy and decided not to list them. :p The list of new music added amazed me, and this was all added yesterday. There is already tons of music in the ITMS now. They started out with the "big 5" record companies, with about 200,000 songs in April when the ITMS first opened up. They just began signing up independent labels, so a lot more cool stuff is on its way. Now I think they have doubled that or more. Unlike kazaa, you do pay for the music. The songs are 99 cents each, and most full cds are $9.99, though some differ. The Dalis Car, for example, is under $7, where on Amazon it is nearly $12 + shipping. The fact that they even have this amazes me. They have Dalis fucking Car. I can't believe it. In fact, they now seem to have all Bauhaus related projects (that I know of) minus Daniel Ash, who may or may not already be in the store...I haven't checked lately. And the David and Jad Fair? I only know of this cd because Peter played it for us over a vacation. In my book, it they're fairly obscure. This is a strange cd.
Ahhh, well. Blabber, blabber, blabber...I could go on forever about this, but I won't. So I am going now. Bye.
