@ArachneJericho Ditto! I did the Flit Orphans storylet (Shadowy 40) until it finally took away the Try Again.
@pathar I admit I worry about not being able to see the new stuff just because I play every day. (I'm nearly maxed out now.) #ebz
@ArachneJericho Quite convenient :D I'm going back to that when I'm done Duelling- it's one of the most fun sections, even w/the minor grind

Šašliks – Two Ways
As promised on Friday, here are the recipes we used for this year’s šašliks.
What are šašliks? You probably know them as shish-kebobs or shashliks (š is sh) – just skewered, marinated meat that’s grilled. Nom.
I don’t think I could pick one of these as a favorite of the night – I wished for more of both!

Chicken Satay with Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce
Earlier this week, I talked about making your own coconut milk from scratch. Here’s what we did with ours: chicken satay marinated in coconut milk and a spicy sauce over coconut rice. Definitely a keeper!
The coconut rice uses some of the leftover coconut bits from squeezing out the milk, they add a subtle coconut flavor on their own but are best with a bit of coconut milk also replacing some of the cooking water. As for a side dish, we made some tangy pickled cucumber slices (recipe still needs some work, it was good but not right yet).

Steamed Siu Mai Dumplings
I’ve been having some cravings for dim sum lately and came across a recipe for siu mai in the April issue of Cooking Light that looked inspirational. I wanted to try the cabbage/apple mixture, since I’m a fan of that in salad form and was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a great mix. You can’t really taste the apple, it only gives some pleasant texture and rounds out the flavors nicely.
These are easily converted for vegetarians and vegans, simply use tofu or edamame for the protein. I opted for chicken because I already had some cooked chicken on hand, but any kind of flavorful protein works well here.

Ukrainian Kapusniak (Fresh Cabbage Soup)
Naturally, it was a night to have soup. We had acquired a bunch of green cabbage on sale at the local grocery but it needed to be used fairly quickly so it didn’t go bad. I wanted something easy to make, filling and satisfying, then remembered this recipe I’d found when researching a question for someone. It was perfect for a cold, snowy night.

Chicken Salad
One of the best uses for leftover chicken or turkey is the humble chicken salad. Now, I wasn’t always a fan; in fact, since my experience for much of my youth was the chicken salad glop served in cafeterias or bad cafes, I really didn’t care for it.
After I made it, I took a bite of my sandwich and closed my eyes in happiness. It might not be the same recipe but I think it’s actually better. Crunchy, not too sweet and packed with flavor.. all I have to do now is arrange for more leftovers so I can have this again!
