October 2016 music roundup

I've run out of clever ways to introduce this blog post and self-deprecatingly reference how nobody reads it. Here's the overview.

Favorites from 2016: Taking Back Sunday's Tidal Wave, Lauren Mann's Dearestly, Hannah Georgas's For Evelyn, Letters From The Fire's Worth the Pain, Famous Last Word's The Incubus, Yellowcard's Yellowcard, The Naked & Famous's Simple Forms, Jimmy Eat World's Integrity Blues, Amaranthe's Maximalism, Epica's The Holographic Principle, Bridear's Baryte, Empire of the Sun's Two Vines.

Older favorites: Hannah Claire's Every Little Sound, Hannah Georgas's discography, The Gaslight Anthem's Get Hurt, Sally Seltmann's discography, Mary's Blood's Countdown to Evolution, Issa's discography, Screaming Orphans's discography, Scandal's discography, Dark Princess's discography, Magica's discography.

Overall recommendations: October has been a great month for music. There have been releases by some of my favorite bands—The Naked and Famous, Yellowcard, Jimmy Eat World, Amaranthe, Epica, and Empire of the Sun. Definitely check out all those albums. I've explored a lot of indie/pop/folk artists like Hannah Claire and Sally Seltmann/New Buffalo, and that's been a lot of fun. I've also listened to a lot of symphonic metal (Issa, Dark Princess, Magica) that really captured my attention. And, finally, I caught up on Screaming Orphans and Scandal, so I've now heard all their stuff and highly endorse their music.

Happy listening! Let me know if you have any recommendations. I'm always looking for new music!

Biscuits

I cobbled together some biscuits tonight at Sarah's request. It's based on an Epicurious recipe, but we were lacking a few ingredients, so I kind of made it my own recipe. They turned out really well, I think, and they were really simple.

2 cups flour
6 tablespoons coconut oil
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
5 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk

I mixed together the flour, the coconut oil, the baking powder, and the salt, then heated it in the microwave for about 90 seconds so that the oil was workable. I added the milk, kneaded it a bit with my hands until it was consistent, and cut the dough out onto a baking sheet in biscuit-sized circles.

After 20 minutes on 425ºF, I removed the tray and spooned the sweetened condensed milk over the top. It melted into the biscuits because they were still hot, which was really nice.

About 96 calories per biscuit, and the recipe yielded 12, so I'd call it a success. :)

Halloween movies, part I

Last year Sarah and I set out to watch 31 scary movies in October. It was ambitious and a lot of fun. This year we've been a little more lax about it, but we've still committed to watch 13 scary movies before or shortly after Halloween. I figured I'd give an update on what we've watched so far now that we've seen a few (and Halloween is two days away).

Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children
Loved the movie. The book was more fulfilling and spookier, but this was a great adaptation.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
They were showing this in IMAX, so we took advantage of it.
Psycho
Masterpiece. It was also being shown in theaters—$5 a ticket, too.
Red Riding Hood
This was pretty much panned when it was released, but I like it anyway. Visually very appealing.
The Boy
Delightful and creepy.
The Forest
We thought about watching this in our tent on a camping trip, but decided against it and watched it at home later. Very glad we didn't watch it while camping.

Coming up there are a few on our lists that we want to get to, including a couple old monster movies (definitely B-movie fare), Stonehearst Asylum, Hocus Pocus, The Birds, Rear Window, and Signs, but I'd welcome any recommendations of stuff we have and haven't seen.

Cooking update

A new element of this blog that I'd like to introduce is a record of the recipes I try and the dishes I make. I've been cooking more often this year and experimenting with recipe recommendations and opportunities. If anyone has cool recipe suggestions (for literally any type of food/meal), let me know in a comment!

Here are a few I've saved in drafts for a while. Generally my recipes serve two with a few leftovers, but I'm not super particular about making a note of the yield when I keep track of them because I just adjust for the situation.

Peanut butter cheesecake ice cream alternative
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup peanut flour
1 tsp. agave nectar

Blend until smooth. Freeze for an hour. Remove and stir. Freeze for another hour.

Pretty simply, not terribly unhealthy, and it tastes similar to peanut butter cheesecake ice cream. I'll probably try it with cocoa/dark chocolate too next time.

Chicken-peach salad
2 peaches
2 chicken breasts
1 bag of spinach
crumbly cheese (feta is particularly good, but anything similar will work)

Slice up the peaches and soften them over medium heat. Dice the chicken and cook it with the peaches. (Optional: rub the chicken with sage first.) Split the spinach bag in two on some big plates. Top the spinach with the peaches, the chicken, and the cheese to your liking. (This has turned out to be one of Sarah's favorite meals, and she's requested it a number of times since I first made it.)


Black bean cabbage jamboree
1 head of cabbage
salt
lime juice
1 can black beans
white rice
cumin
avocado
tomato
queso fresco

Thin slice the cabbage and toss it with salt and lime. Half-drain the black beans and heat them until soft (optionally with a chipotle pepper for flavor). Cook however much rice you want with some cumin. Slice the avocado and dice the tomato. When everything's ready, put rice into a bowl, then tomatoes, then black beans, then cabbage, then everything else to taste.

Caramel apple cheesecake
1 green apple
1 tablespoon cinnamon
2 tablespoons caramel syrup
2 tablespoons brown sugar
6 sheets of graham crackers

2 tablespoons butter

4 ounces cream cheese/Neufchâtel
4 ounces Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons flour
1/3 cup white sugar
1 egg white


Phase 1: Chop apple into small cubes. Cook over medium heat in a saucepan. Add in some water to soften the apples, 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon, and the caramel syrup. When apples are soft, add in brown sugar, mix well, and remove from heat.

Phase 2: Crush graham crackers. Mix with melted butter, 1/2 tablespoon cinnamon, and a dash of brown sugar. Dump mixture into an aluminum foil–lined glass dish, spread out evenly, and then bake for 5 minutes.

Phase 3: Mix cream cheese and Greek yogurt (I just did it with a fork). Add flour, white sugar, and egg white; mix well. When the apple mixture from Phase 1 has cooled, mix it with this one until well blended. (The apples have to be cooled or they'll curdle the Greek yogurt.)

Phase 4: Pour the mixture into the dish over the graham cracker base. Add a little caramel syrup on top if you'd like, then bake at 350ºF for about 30 minutes. When it's done, freeze for 2 hours, then refrigerate and eat when slightly softened.

I made this about a week ago. I cut it into 9 pieces at about 212 calories each, so not a bad dessert option, and they turned out really well. Very delicious. In fact, there's still some in the fridge...

Shepherd's pie and cauliflower mash
1 celery stalk
1 cup carrots
1/2 medium onion
3 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon basil
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic salt
1 pound ground beef
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 cup water
1/2 head cauliflower
3 ounces cheese (I used Welsh Red Dragon, but any favorite cheese works)
3 tablespoons heavy cream
dash of salt
chopped green onions

Prep a mirepoix of the celery, carrots, and onion in 1 tablespoon butter. Add ketchup, basil, cayenne, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and garlic salt. Sauté for a few minutes. Add beef and brown it. Add water and Worcestershire and simmer. Let it cool in a glass dish.

Microwave the cauliflower for 6 minutes, then add 2 tablespoons butter, cheese, cream, salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and green onions. Blend until at desired consistency. Dump it into the dish with the beef filling, then bake at 375ºF for 20 minutes. Broil for an additional 5 minutes, then slice up and serve.

*

I've got a handful of recipes saved to try, so I'll update with new posts whenever I get around to making one of them.

September 2016 music roundup

It's time for the long-awaited September music digest...

I mean, I know no one really reads these, but still. It's high time I got September's up so that I can get back on track for October.

September was a great month. Lots of new music, since as a full-time writer I basically have 8+ hours a day to just listen to music. I tend to split that time evenly between stuff I already know and stuff I don't. So yeah, that racks up pretty quickly. (I should probably put a link to my Last.fm profile on this blog somewhere, since I try to scrobble whatever I can there.)

Favorites from September

Releases from 2016: Relient K's Air For Free, Crown the Empire's Retrograde, Sabaton's The Last Stand, Bastille's The Wide World, Lindsey Stirling's Brave Enough, A Day To Remember's Bad Vibrations, Scandal's Yellow, Tarja's The Brightest Voice and The Shadow Self, Silent Siren's S, Carly Rae Jepsen's E•MO•TION: Side B. (Pretty much the only 2016 release that didn't make it on the list was Bon Iver's newest. I liked it, but the different between this one and his two others is so stark that the new one is going to take some work to digest.)

Older releases: The Hype Theory's Captives and Glory Days, BAND-MAID's New Beginning, Too Close To Touch's Nerve Endings, and Taking Back Sunday's self-titled. Also, literally everything by Silent Siren, Scandal, and Screaming Orphans.

Recommendations: Okay, I'm going to take this by category, and all of these recommendations apply to each band's entire discography in these cases, since they're all fantastic. (But if you're just looking to sample, go with each band's newest release, I think.) Poppy stuff? Go for Relient K, Carly Rae Jepsen, Lindsey Stirling, and Bastille. Emo/screamo/post-hardcore? Crown the Empire, A Day To Remember, Too Close to Touch, and Taking Back Sunday. Metal? Sabaton, BAND-MAID, and Tarja. J-pop? Scandal and Silent Siren. Irish pop-rock? Screaming Orphans. (They nearly rival my love for my all-time favorite band, The Corrs.)

The Bottom Line

Listen to Screaming Orphans, Carly Rae Jepsen, and Silent Siren. Right now.
