"Cooking" etc.

I had a rather busy week. It was the week of X-Mas Carol load- in. What's that, too early for christmas stuff you say? Why yes it is, but ACC (for short) always opens before thanksgiving, ensuring that everyone working on the show will be thoroughly sick of the holiday before December even starts. Anyway, we hung lights then installed all the practicals and stuff then focused it Thursday and they're in tech today and will open tomorrow night. It's a really short tech, but since this is the 26th year, they're all pretty familiar with what to do. It used to close a couple days AFTER christmas. Yeah, it was pretty dismal that last week. Lucky for me I'm pretty much done with it, unless Jon needs me to fill in for him at some point.

I did more non-cooking last night. Robyn helped me out:

nessa33: hmm. what to make for dinner?
tinydryad: make me something too
tinydryad: I got nuthin
nessa33: i dont want to defrost anything so i think its frozen chicken strips
tinydryad: I could make chicken too
nessa33: i also have french fries and green beans
tinydryad: so do I!

So Robyn and I made the same dinners last night. :) It was a decent meal. My fries were Ore Ida "Zesties" and were pretty tasty. My green beans came from Costco, so I have about 4 more pounds of frozen green beans to get through. They're organic baby green beans, so they are quite a bit better than the regular frozen green beans. Macaela says that if you apply heat to something it counts as cooking. In my mind, I have the impression that "cooking" should involve some stirring as well. Oh well, it was a nice change from frozen pizza.
