Wednesday breakfast with all seven of The Eastside Orangeys plus Scary Blacky. Creamsicle 3 is pure love, and a professional greeter as is the code of the creamsicle. Chubba Wubbs Mommy got her scratch in, and I got to be honored to love on the best gang ever.

If you’re an adult who now says Super Intelligence because that person said so, you are, in fact, not an adult at all. Pathetic

Grumpy Face Blacky Whitey will always get up for a bedtime snack, even when she’s sooooooo comfortable. She’s one of the best kitties ever to grace the tiny kingdom of Skinnerville.

MeanCat has resumed his sunshine-powered plotting and scheming. He suggests we settle our affairs sooner than later. He’s got big plans.

Made Hyderabadi wedding curry with tofu: Toasted almond flour & coconut. covered tofu with spices. Cooked up onions. Then kinda-puréed ginger/garlic, add to pan. Add soy sauce, sambal olek, chili powder, lots of fresh cilantro & lots of dried fenugreek leaves. So damn good

Sunday breakfast with The Eastside Orangeys plus Imposter Limpers. A great happy breakfast had by all. Creamsicle 3 tried his best to get the lazy marchers into parade formation but only so much one creamsicle can do. He’s the best.

Sometimes the audacity of what I’m trying to do with law school on top all the other insanity in my life becomes the stupidity of what I’m trying to do with law school on top all the other insanity in my life. Gets annoying at times to be audaciously stupid or stupidly audacious

Tuesday breakfast with all 7 of The Eastside Orangeys. Everyone was in a great mood, all head butts & tails up. It’s been over 5 years now, all fixed & vaccinated, and we’ve never missed a day (twice a day for 1st two years to get them settled). And we won’t let them down.

Neighbors had really tried much Indian cuisine. So we made them a starter meal: chicken vindaloo, creamy black daal, saag paneer, fresh basmati rice. I hope they like it.

Patrick Skinner @pmskinner.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

It’s saag paneer time again. The third dish in the Indian meal I’m making for neighbors & colleagues. Easy to make. And a classic wonderful dish. Here we go.

Told neighbors I’d make them a 3-dish Indian dinner. Made two today, so they can sit overnight & get ever better: dishoom’s famous creamy black daal, and from-scratch chicken Vindaloo. I don’t eat meat but can cook anything so let’s check it out!
