I’ve tried again making eggplant parmigiana from this recipe.
Growing up, I didn’t really like eggplant until one day, when I wrote common entrance exams 1, the people over the road made baigani2 (which is sliced baigan, coated in batter and fried) for an Iftar3. I was highly appreciative.
Anything fried, right?
Well, I took pictures of most of the process.
Basically, slice, salt, weigh and wait, bread, fry, layer with sauce, parmesan and mozzarella. Then bake!
Unfortunately I salted it a bit too much which is extra bad because we cook with very little salt. It tasted great but the salt kept bothering me.
But…when I put it in a sandwich with hops bread it was much easier to ignore!
Remember to look at the rest.
- secondary school entrance/placement exams
- other names for eggplant: aubergine, melongene and baigan
- Remember, Iftar is the meal to break the fast.
Yes, this was during Ramadan.
Yes, I wrote Common Entrance while fasting.
Yes, a lot of my colleagues weren’t because the all morning exam was too stressful.
For me, it was much less stressful than having to eat and worry about my exam at 10 years old.
Edited: Because the recipe link changed. I should *save* the recipe.
I would be able to tell from the sounds.
What sounds? Well firecrackers, bamboo and the doorbell ringing.
Why does the doorbell ring? Because people are sharing sweets and parsad.
So Happy Divali to anyone who celebrates.
Well, preliminary results say that the PNM got 26 seats, UNC-A 15 and COP none.
It’s very sad.
I’m very sad.
According to the Newsday the EBC says:
Preliminary checks with the EBC also revealed that the People’s National Movement had up to 11 pm copped some 236, 420 voters, while the UNC Alliance received 103,247 votes and the Congress of the People had pulled in 119, 007.
Isn’t that sad?
That with that many votes counted (about 59% of the registered voters), COP didn’t get any seats yet they had the second highest number of votes? While the party with less votes won seats.
And Mr Panday and Mr Warner, stop blaming the COP. It is only your fault. Maybe if Mr Panday had retired gracefully people might have been willing to support UNC-A. I am sure there are many COP voters who will never vote for Panday.
And Mr Manning, maybe the only reason God put you in charge again is because he thinks we in Trinidad & Tobago deserve no better than you.
Edit: Shelly on CNC3 said the EBC said it was about 299k PNM, 194k UNC-A and 148k COP.
I don’t believe COP split the vote.
If you can’t keep the support of the people then you *lost* the vote on your own.
Maybe UNC-A split the vote … or should I say Panday. Maybe politicians should retire when they’re OLD just like other people have to.
I don’t know.
Voting for Ramesh?? Heeralal? Not Anand? Shame!
Is Winston losing? Noooooo.
They need to at least win a seat.
Chennette says if we’re lucky PNM won’t get a special majority. Well, I can hope for that … or even LARGE miracles.
But then what? It’s not as if UNC does anything in opposition aside from being annoying Panday zombies.
*sigh*
I would bite my nails except that one of my fingers is stained.
I would show you the picture of my stained finger if I had it off the camera already.
Edited to add picture.
OH NO WHAT’S GOING TO HAPPEN TOMORROW!
Well, I’ll vote for one…
