Mice & Curry

Well, one of my new mice is preggers. So if anyone reading is in need of a mouse, let me know! Pets only- I don't mind if you have reptiles/snakes etc etc but these guys aren't food. No breeders either. Millet is a very pretty satin blue brindle merle, carrying tan, so there should def be brindles. Blues, yellow, merle, roan, tan-marked, and white markings are possible too. I don't have a camera right now but I'll get a hold of one asap. Males, single 3$, Females, pair 5$ trio 7$ Will come with care packet, food sample, and I'll take back at any time if you can't keep.

We still have everyone else, and Gumbo is doing great. Vega isn't doing so well(she has tumors and probably lymphoma or leukemia), she has good days and bad days. Linus and Tact, who will be 2 on Dec 1(!!!) are doing great. The clown loaches have ick but are doing okay. I love those silly fish :(

I am going to try and post a couple recipes each week. We had this yesterday.

Mango-Pumpkin Curry

1/2 onion, diced
2" ginger or more, peeled, cut into matchsticks
1 Mango, diced
thai-style yellow curry paste, to taste(this is supposed to be a mild curry)
1 tbsp tomato paste
1 can coconut milk
1 lb tofu, diced(or you could use something else - I'd go with cooked pork or chicken)
2 small zucchini, sliced
1 lb pumpkin, peeled and diced
1/2 cup pomegranate seeds
2 cups rice
Lime wedges(optional)

Start boiling the rice & steaming the veggies first. Fry ginger and onion in a bit of oil until soft. Add in curry paste to taste. Remove from heat(to avoid splatters) and stir in coconut milk, mango and tofu(or cooked meat) and cook on low until the veggies & rice are done. Sprinkle the pomegranate seeds on top of each serving - don't heat 'em or they'll get soft. Add lime wedges on the side. Makes 4-ish servings.
