fly lice

finally made myself dinner at a reasonable hour tonight, giving myself ample time to cook things properly (well, as properly as you can get when you're just converting your lemongrass pork rice w/ copious coriander into pork fried rice). and for the first time, i understood what they meant when they say you have to fry it until the rice "jumps". it's cool. and by "they", of course i mean loretta, who always complains that i don't have the patience to cook anything properly. when you've seen rice jump, it gives "fly lice" a whole new meaning, no?
