Spice control.

Whew, another Tuesday down!

My Tuesdays are like the worst case of Mondays + those last hours of work on Friday that just drag on and on combined. Oh caffeine, how would I survive class from 9:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. without you?

Last night at dinner, my roommate proclaimed, “I officially lost feeling in my tongue.” And this Tikka Masala paste was to blame:

This turned out to be one of the spiciest Indian dishes I’ve had in a long time. Lips burning good!

We also had store-bought (but excellent) garlic naan bread:

Plus salad and a glass of red wine. Ah, yes. Monday nights. :)

After we finished eating, our stomachs and lips were on fire. So for a complete meal, we got into the car and drove to Bart’s Homemade Ice Cream shop for a pint of pumpkin pie in ice cream form. No joke. It’s out of this world.

It sort of left me speechless:

Gracie definitely noticed our excitement and wanted to be in on the action:

But a pint between three people? She realized she wasn’t going to get any very soon:

What’s your idea of a complete meal?

I vote pumpkin ice cream should be sold year round — it’s just too good to be limited to a few months!

I’m catching up on your posts!!!

Love all the cat pics :-)

Loved your beerific weekend.

And my idea of a complete meal = must have at least 3 components! Preferably a “main” dish and 2 vegetable sides :-) oh, and dark chocolate for dessert :-)

Curry, naan and PUMPKIN ICE CREAM. Forget NY- I am coming to MA! :D

Complete meal to me is my mom’s roast chicken, my homemade ratatouille/goulash hybride vegetable dish, Israeli cous cous and roasted asparagus. Followed by my mom’s “rotten fruit pie” and vanilla ice cream (the pie sounds gross, but is INCREDIBLE!)

Ah, I love the loss-of-tongue feeling! I think chicken tikka masala is supposed to be very mild, so I never get it at Indian restaurants. I’ll have to check out that bad-ass paste.
