there was one brief moment, when the score was 22-17, before the challenge was successful and before I saw the replay, when I was happy

I had 2-1 and 2-0, so I was rooting hard for the challenge to fail (then a colts FG or 2 TDs). But once the pick 6 happened, I realized I had 7,1 and I was screaming for the saints D to hold ONE TIME!

definitely no better way to watch a football game then to have your numbers written down on a sheet of paper, which you then have to check every so often just to see exactly what you want to happen

Well, it's better if the game has a lot of your fantasy players playing.

I think if I put four masons, it would be a two way split.

I made risotto for the first time ever last week, it was delicious. Anyone have any good variations to make it better? I just used onions/mushrooms along with the regular stuff.

Use chicken stock instead of water. Add cheese. [these two are my standards]

You can find recipes for red wine risotto (or white wine) if you google.

I had risotto tonight, with leek, rosemary and zuccini.

what mushrooms? Wild mushrooms are awesome and meaty. Chorizo is tasty in anything, Any fresh herbs would be great. And freshly grated parmesan on top makes a big difference. But not all at the same time.

Pretty much gotta use stock imo, but the first liquid in is usually a small glass of (white) wine, vermouth or something akin.

My wife & I just discovered leeks and their awesomeness. Can I get that risotto recipe?

I hope nobody is making risotto without stock anymore, but just in case, yeah, wyman is right. Mushroom is one of the very best ingredients for a risotto, imo, so you did well! In the spring you can make an asparagus risotto. So good. Also, try caramellizing your onions before you make the risotto next time and start with a little white wine before you switch to broth.

Once, I bought some lobster tails and boiled them and made a lobster stock and then put the lobster meat in the risotto with romano cheese and asparagus. It was actually reaaally easy, but if you want to impress somebody, just try telling them that you're serving them lobster asparagus risotto.
