Comments for Sounds From the Attic http://soundsfromtheattic.net A couple from the midwest hunkers down in the attic to share music, thoughts and stories. Thu, 13 Jan 2011 23:16:10 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 Comment on #27 – 1/13/11 by beth http://soundsfromtheattic.net/?p=275&cpage=1#comment-293 beth Thu, 13 Jan 2011 23:16:10 +0000 http://soundsfromtheattic.net/?p=275#comment-293 funny episode!

kate and ray, i am a new mother of a baby boy. i recommend:
-pain meds if you don’t enjoy pain because otherwise you feel every(muthertrucking)thing!

-peepeeteepees until you get the hang of dodging pee. we had a little r.kelly on our hands from the very first night home. (also, warm bath = you will get peed on. throw an extra washcloth over junk right away).

-baby Bjorn. mac loves being in his and i would not get anything done around the house without one.

-boucy seat/vibrating chair.

-good swaddling blankets (the ones we stole from the hospital were not large enough to get a good swaddle going)

-a “boppy” for nursing support

also that beach house album is a great one to rock your little nugget to sleep once he gets here.

Anybody who knew Tawny at that time would and did guess the same.
You were a real sport for letting this be read outloud. lol

Love you guys!

It was super funny. I knew it had something to do with Jimmy Eat World. You were obsessed. Do I get a t-shirt or poster? I have the NY trip on tiny tapes that I need to put on a dvd. When I finally get them transfered, do you want a copy?

In ten years I hope to have children that know how to share their toys with other kids. Unlike my sister who always wanted to “show” Shannon how to “play” with toys!!

I am listening to the coolest band righ now and going to Old World to see some shows.

Love Self…hehe

1.5 cups couscous
1 TBS unsalted butter
1.5 cups boiling water
0.25 cup plain yogurt
0.25 cup good olive oil
1 TSP white wine vinegar
1 TSP curry powder
.25 TSP ground turmeric
1.5 TSP kosher salt (Jew salt)
1 TSP freshly ground black pepper
.5 cup grated (or small diced) carrots
.5 cup minced fresh-flat leaf parsley
.5 cup dried currants
.25 cup blanched, sliced almonds
2 ea scallions, thinly sliced
(white and green parts)
.25 cup small-diced red onion

Place couscous in a medium bowl. Melt the butter in the boiling water and pour over the couscous. (we also sautee the red onions and carrots before adding to mix) Melt the butter in the boiling water and pour over the couscous. Cover tightly and allow the couscous to soak for 5 min. Fluff with a fluffer.

Whisk together the yogurt, olive oil, vineger, curry, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Pour over the fluffed coscous and mix well with a fork (or fluffer). Add the carrots, parsley, currants, almonds, scallions, and red onions; mix well and taste for seasonings. Serve at room temperature. (perfect side to lamb and chicken dishes if you’re not of the vegitation persuasion)

I enjoyed the episode. I never thought of you as a “driver” Corey, but it is totally true. And don’t stop laughing, Tawny. Thanks for playing the 75 Year Plan. I like that song.

The Leine’s Classic Amber is also VERY GOOD. And relatively cheap.
Not sure if you’ve heard it, but The Chieftains have an album titled “Down the Old Plank Road: the Nashville sessions” with that song on it. It’s pretty great and combines that bluegrass and Irish folk sound. Very Finneran.
I’m Dutch so I’m glad we can be friends.
I also loved horses and drew them all the time. Dark secret.

I’m Jewish German, what of it now Corey?!? You play my music and then say you don’t like me….I’m hurt..Bad. I think I’m going to go cry myself to sleep now.

2. I didn’t like anyone named Jeff till about high school, because of one kid I knew with that name in elementary school.

3. All the talk about Matt Moody I just now went and watched the youtube clips of Preacher, awesome little trip down memory lane.

4. Braid is Amazing. The tour was in ’04.

5. I’m not only Jewish German, I’m also English, Irish, but mostly Belgian.

6. Sounds From The Attic Hotline…. Yes!

Anyway, it was quite entertaining! I’m glad this reminded me about Will Whitmore. I see he has a new CD, I’m gonna check it out now.

I’m looking forward to hearing more :)

I remember that show fondly because of all the great bands that played there. But I can see how that would leave a sour taste. However, did you know that they have technically broken up? They’ve reformed under a different name with some members of another Aledo band, and they are a complete joke now. I was a fan of them before, but this new band is just intolerable.

Or my mom and dad’s garage was perhaps an icicle making machine. I just always remember that. If, and I mean if there are more icicles now then ever, I would defiantly have to subscribe to Corey’s jealousy/pissed off icicle theory.

Good show again….

Keep them coming! And there were always a boatload of icicles around ever since I can remember. You just didn’t see many as a kid since there are only three buildings in Cuba for them to hang from. We always broke them off for impromptu sword fights.

I’m no physics guy, but by my initial calculations, an icecicle dropped from 20 feet would reach a speed of over 132 miles per hour by the time it reached the ground. If it didn’t kill you, though, you’d have ice handy to place on the bump.

It’d be great if you could leave a good review for us on iTunes when we finally get approved. I will let everyone know when that goes through.

Paul -
Nope, that was our first “go” at it. We talked about recording a few shows for practice, but we decided to just run with it.
You should be able to subscribe by clicking on the “RSS Podcast” button on the right. Again, once iTunes approves us, you will be able to click on the iTunes button to subscribe there. If you have a podcatcher, I would assume when you click on “RSS Podcast”, it should get things set up for you. If it still doesn’t work, let me know.

Thanks for listening, everyone.
-Corey
