Jenbeansblog: Toulouse Oct 19, 2012
http://huenjenbeansblog.blogspot.com/2012/11/toulouse-oct-19-2012.html
Thursday, November 1, 2012. Toulouse Oct 19, 2012. My coworker and I set off to Toulouse, the next leg of our France adventure, after the last set of talks at the Bordeaux university. Our Toulouse hotel was situated 3 minutes quick stroll away from the Gare de Matabiau train station and was right in the heart of strip-club central (I promise I did not plan it this way! But a nice 15-minute leisurely saunter towards the city centre. We ventured into the central part of Toulouse for some shopping and to se...

Jenbeansblog: Pizza party!
http://huenjenbeansblog.blogspot.com/2012/11/pizza-party.html
Saturday, November 10, 2012. Last Friday, we decided to make a pizza party with a couple of friends. I made three doughs that morning but there were only two doughs after work. Sister sandy and her boyfriend Steven were hungry and gobbled up one pizza before I could take pictures. However! They really enjoyed it :). The pizza dough is very simple and can be made in the morning, let rise over the day, then about 8 hours later, ready to be kneed. For one flat dough on 13inch x 18inch baking sheet:. After p...

Jenbeansblog: TED talk by Ben Goldacre and time to refresh (learn) some French
http://huenjenbeansblog.blogspot.com/2012/10/ted-talk-by-ben-goldacre-and-time-to.html
Monday, October 15, 2012. TED talk by Ben Goldacre and time to refresh (learn) some French. I'm a very lucky girl in that my life can revolve around food and science. And lately, research has taken front and center stage. Front and center, solo, and with a long dramatic aria. Leading me to generate stuff like this:. And images like this:. Structure obtained from PDB, ID: 2xsz. Ref: Gorynia et al. And data crunching late into the wee hours. Http:/ www.ted.com/talks/view/lang/en/ id/1575. The little pumpki...

Jenbeansblog: Blueberry agar pie - experiment time!
http://huenjenbeansblog.blogspot.com/2012/11/blueberry-agar-pie-experiment-time.html
Monday, November 12, 2012. Blueberry agar pie - experiment time! A friend has been living with us for the past week or so and she brought with her a big box of goodies. In it was a bag of agar-agar, the same type used in chinese style jello desserts. So now we must do some agar experiments! We received lots of great food magazines and fliers over the past few weeks and this one. 1 9-inch Tenderflake pie crust, baked according to manufacturer's instructions. 400 mL whole milk (3.5% MF). Add blueberries an...

Jenbeansblog: Bordeaux Oct 16, 2012
http://huenjenbeansblog.blogspot.com/2012/10/bordeaux-oct-16-2012.html
Sunday, October 28, 2012. Bordeaux Oct 16, 2012. Place de la Bourse, Bordeaux. First night in Bordeaux and after getting lost, experiencing jet-lag, hunger, and feeling grumpy, the first thing my coworker and I spot is a Pizza hut that was still opened and CRAZY busy and we choose a small veggie pan pizza and some bread sticks, which was actually the crust of a pan pizza with mozzarella cheese and folded over itself. If I had slowed down to taste it, I'm sure it would have been delicious. The next evenin...

Jenbeansblog: Anything in your kitchen Quinoa salad and all those Beautiful Bloggers.......
http://huenjenbeansblog.blogspot.com/2012/11/anything-in-your-kitchen-quinoa-salad.html
Tuesday, November 13, 2012. Anything in your kitchen Quinoa salad and all those Beautiful Bloggers. Why do you like blogging? This question is probably the same as asking me, why do you like cooking? Here's one scenario that might help explain why. You didn't sleep well. Your dog was barking at odd hours, probably from hearing some angry doggie conversation 20 km away that only doggies can hear. You are grumpy, out of lunch ideas, and don't want to waste precious dollars on overpriced cafeteria food.

Jenbeansblog: Fortune cookie apple crumble and where is the snow?
http://huenjenbeansblog.blogspot.com/2012/12/fortune-cookie-apple-crumble-and-where.html
Tuesday, December 11, 2012. Fortune cookie apple crumble and where is the snow? Have you ever visited a fortune teller? What was it like? Did they have the glass orb or tarot cards or read your palms? In the spirit of the carnival, I've always been curious to visit a fortune teller's tent. I imagine it is like walking into an interactive theatrical play. However, the prices always hold me back. 3 small Gala apples, sliced thinly. Handful of dried cranberries. Juice of half lemon (about 2 Tbsp). Am not in...

The House That Some Idiot Built. A blog that documents one girl's battle with making her house look awesome (on a serious budget). This bubinga table may make you crap your pants …. IKEA bookcases with green backs (and plants). I find that as I get older, my style preferences and preferred aesthetics evolve and morph in pretty unexpected ways. I like books. I like bookcases. Purchasing these IKEA Billy bookcases. And putting them in the dining area was a bit of an accident. I bought them to actually ...

The House That Some Idiot Built. A blog that documents one girl's battle with making her house look awesome (on a serious budget). October 16, 2012 – 1:47 pm. I made this pepper grinder for my sister. It is made of bamboo plywood. It’s like a really bad poetry reading up in here.). The grinding mechanism was something that was bought. The copper tube is something we repurposed and made from soldering different sizes tubes together. Copper is also another one of those pricey (but pretty! Read more ».
