I still need a climbing icon

[stillsostrange]

Tonight I had actual instruction at the gym. This was quite beneficial. We went over general technique (my footwork didn't suck to begin with--woo!), and I top-roped on the slab wall. I climbed three slabs five or six times (total, not each). Once the sweaty-palmed dry-mouthed panic stopped, it was a lot of fun. Once I stop being a chicken-shit on the bouldering routes, things can only improve. Now I get to spend a month or so getting over the chicken-shit part, and then I get another lesson.

And now, vindaloo.

Vindaloo is a vinegar and tomato-based curry. It's very hot (though not as hot as phaal). It usually comes in chicken or lamb, and some places serve it vegetarian. The 'aloo' is a false cognate--potatoes aren't involved.

If you like spicy, it's the best damn curry ever.
