Idle State

Here's a great link if you've got a spare moment to look:

Virgil

Also on the site is BooksThatMakeYouDumb.

There's not a lot of point to Virgil's site, but that's why it sort of appeals to me in an Idle kind of way. So I thought I'd give it a bit of link love.

Oh yeah - Happy New Year. I was considering doing a top-ten things list but they've been done to death over the last few weeks - and all in all they are pretty uninteresting - so I'm not going to.

It's too cold for the beach at the moment - so it's back to the kitchen where I'm making Lentil soup. Brilliant Lentil and Chickpea Soup recipe may be found on Recipezaar (since I'm boycotting Epicurious after the Facebook-Beacon thing). The soup recipe actually has cinamon as an ingredient - strange, and I wanted to leave it out - but if you make it do include the cinamon because it makes for a great taste.
