This is in the crock pot right now for dinner. It smells WONDERFUL! However, I failed to read the instructions all the way through before starting. There is an optional step to marinade the meat in yogurt first for hours before making it. I was delayed in being able to start the prep, I could have marinated the meat. Ah well, I'll know better for next time. 

(Yes, it could be improved by marinating the meat. But it is still tasty).

April 17th from 11-3, Journeyman is having a yard sale at their restaurant. I have no idea what a high-end kitchen would have for sale at their yard sale, but it might be fun to check out.

How do people get earbuds to stay in? I've tried a couple different tips, the large ones (duh) seem best but as I run/jog they pull out of my ears.

Sabbatai Zevi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Here's why I love reading history books. I'm currently reading about Albania in the 16th century. They're talking about the small town of Ulcinj which is not especially notable, though it was the town Sabbatai Zevi was exiled to and where he died.

And who is Sabbatai Zevi? He was a rabbi living in the Ottoman Empire. At the age of 22 he declared himself the Messiah. He gathered quite a following and even after he was imprisoned in Constantinople (not Istanbul), he still had a devoted following.

Eventually he was hauled up before the Sultan who said he'd either face a trial of his divinity (shot at by archers, if they missed, he was god), impaled, or he could convert to Islam.

He converted.

The book I'm reading isn't even about Sabbatai, this was just a throw-away line, but man do I want to read a book about the Jewish Messiah who converted to Islam. History is full of wonderful little sidelines like this and that's why I love it so much.
