I ventured into the fine world of Indian cooking today. I attempted to prepare Chicken Tikka Masala with Madras Lentils and Coconut Rice. It came out a bit salty and not quite thick enough. I put double the amount of heavy cream by accident and I think my pinch of salt was a bit too much. All in all it was quite tasty dinner, and I will try it again. One thing to note, it takes a long time to prepare.

So I picked up a DSLR yesterday. I had been thinking about getting a DSLR for quite a while and I came upon a few extra bucks. I considered new and refurbished and decided to get the most i could for my money and picked up a Refurb’d Canon Rebel EOS XSi with a Sigma OS/AF 18 - 200mm Lens. I have been taking tons of useless photos and plan to continue to do so until I master this thing.

So, Look out for lots of useless pictures for a while…

Update:  Added a canon 50mm f/1.8 prime lens. Also picked up a tripod, slik pro 340dx.
