On the Menu tonight was Shrimp Lo Mein with Thai Peanut Sauce
Chef Mimi brought snow peas, onions, peppers, and mushrooms, which we sauteed with garlic in a pan.
Brigitte made a Thai Peanut Sauce of her own creation using coconut milk, peanut butter, soy sauce, and ...
a tsp of curry powder- we had to stop there, because as soon as we opened the container,my roommate came out of her room and asked why the house smelled like Asians.
Paco brought the shrimp. Since he was the only dude, he-of course, left the kitchen to play with Miles (And tried to undo all the good behavior I had taught him)
I've been trying to teach him not to jump on people and of course, every time Paco comes over, he says "Miles, UP!"
Thanks to him, Miles nipped Mimi's booty because he thought she was playing with him.
Anyway, it turned out really well. The peanut sauce was of an appealing consistency, and not spicy (Crucial for those of us with weak tolerances to spicy food)
Chef Paco says "That's because Men can handle the heat and Women can't- and yet, he is the one who cried the last time we made Chili and it was too spicy. I told him, "If you can't stand the heat, then get out da kitchen".
