Good Morning everybody! :)

zenwan: Tried to post a reply to you, and the bad karma I sent to that scammer for picking such a name must have rebounded on me, and I was thrown off the internet without a word of apology.

I'm back again, dusting myself off. Your meal sounded wonderful, fish and lemons and dill - a great combination. I'll pigeon over some lemons off my tree, lemons do well here, and I have 2 huge trees in pots.

Thanks for helping out about my name, I may just as Support to 'tweak' it a little, to avoid any confusion. But a character reference from you, if required, would be much appreciated. Not that I'm in the habit of asking for games, as you and gunsynd said, I'd rather go without.

Otherwise all well here, the sun and heat have well and truly arrived, although there is rain and cooler weather forecast for next week, but they do that just to get our hopes up. Probably an April Fool's joke, it will surely be hotter and still dry.

Meantime I see that Moon is up - good morning to you. How are things in chilly Switzerland?

adaliabooks: Don't worry about your name, we all know your a good person :)

Everytime you post you make me just a little jealous, where you live sounds very idyllic :)

Speaking of April Fools, there have been a couple of good ones on the forum already, I might have to have a scout about and see what Google and others have done..
Thank you so much, you're very kind. Another +1, I'm handing them out like easter eggs today. Think of me as the zeneasterbunny... :-D

It is indeed very beautiful here, at least before the scorching heat and the tourists hit us at once. Then not so much. But I shouldn't complain, I'm blessed with so much - except your pizza! <laughing> I must go and look around the forums to see who has been up to tricks..

Yeah, definitely a bonus of working on an evening a lot at the moment :)
Sorry, will try not to mention it so much ;)

moonshineshadow: You should find a way to sent the pizza to others over the internet, you would get rich ;-)
That would be awesome, maybe when we're successful enough we could just franchise it out so you all have one near you ;)

AgentBirdnest: Really, you shouldn't even think about that. I seriously doubt anyone will get confused.
In one hand, you have someone with no avatar or face who joined today asking for free stuff...
In the other, a respected member who has been here a while and makes intelligent and and friendly posts.
You have a solid reputation here (and I'm not talking about the number.) I wouldn't worry at all. :-)

Hello everyone! Good morning.
*hugs and helmet tips*
Thank you for your kindness, Agent, it is much appreciated. I hope your headache is gone, and that you are feeling good today. Another +1 from the zeneasterbunny. :-D

moonshineshadow: *big welcome hug* How are you today?
That good old headache is back again... Other than that minor annoyance, I'm doing quite well :-)

It was gone last night, but is back for an encore this morning...
Another +1 for you, because I give everyone here +1 anyway :-)

moonshineshadow: If both are fine then *hug* and I'll take the zenhug, sounds relaxing and calming :D
You're most welcome - zenhug it is! Surrounded by lots of sunshine.

I've never been to Portugal, but I've been to Cadiz in Spain which I imagine is a somewhat similar climate and environment as it's just a little further South.
I know a few people who have been and it sounds like a lovely place. I imagine when it gets to summer the heat and tourists aren't great but I think I could put up with it for a little while at least ;)
I'd say your probably more likely to be able to find wood fired pizza than many of the people here, I've been told wood fired ovens are quite popular in Spain and Portugal, but I'm not sure if it's true.

just editing out the odd typo...
I don't think you racked up bad karma by not wanting to be mistaken for someone who's managed to turn their name into garbage in the span of a single thread.
From here on out, any time that person does anything gift-related, someone's going to post a link to them begging for stuff.

It actually came out surprisingly well. The dill paste helped the lemon along immensely. (Probably didn't help that I only had lemon juice in a bottle, but the whole fish thing was spur of the moment.)

That's a good looking tree, by the way. There's one tree here, nestled in its own hole full of actual proper dirt rather than the life-killing dust that every other inch of ground consists of.

Support will cover that if it's bothering you, no problem.
To me, it's not any big thing since the differences between you and that person are pretty large.

You're pleasant, enjoyable to talk with, you show an interest in people.
The other person doesn't even go through the motions of saying hello before begging for things.
Little bit of a difference there. -laughs-

Hopefully the forecast is accurate. Hot, dry weather is incredibly crappy to deal with. After a bad winter, it can feel nice, but once it hits 85 degrees Fahrenheit, then keeps going to 105, for weeks, it gets miserable.

Good morning to you. I hope you are having a wonderful day, and that the weather in Germany has improved since yesterday. :-)

Wasn't on site last time for Fools day but can we expect any pranks by GOG on us?

I'm really fine. Did everything i can do for my bachelor's certificate (can go on in my master's yay!) and now have to wait for it.
The weather improved a bit. Less stormy but not it's raining and snowing *sigh*

How is your day?

CarrionCrow: Yes, he's in my top three for anyone related to cooking, the other two being Alton Brown and Alex Guarnaschelli.

Jwan4321: A sense of deja vu strikes me hard. You know, after our last conversation I ended up dredging up nearly every Alton Brown and or Good Eats video on youtube. On the plus side, besides being well versed in making a bunch of new dry spice rubs, sauces, and making my own peanut butter, I have to wonder, are you cooking an Alton brown fish, or an Alex Guarnaschelli fish?
Actually, it wasn't from either person. It was a spur of the moment thing, my roommates felt like crap so I offered to cook whatever they felt like.
They settled on fish, so I winged it with what was in the cabinet.

Wow. i finally started to use Barefoot Essentials. What a huge improvement :)

Cold? Flu? Hungover?

And if you can just whip up some fish, clearly cooking shows are paying off though.
