Okay, for the record. When making a recipe for the first time, under no circumstances should you 1) decide to substitute blood oranges for regular oranges; 2) forget that you're supposed to stir fry with veggie oil, not olive oil; 3) make the recipe for someone while they're watching you cook.

All in all? Not a success. Happily, Hunan Garden's orange peel chicken is significantly better than the poor mangled version I came up with.

Also, poor Patriots. But, Tom Brady, your throws sucked the entire game. Except for that one where you took the lead from the Giants.

i'd say the olive oil substitution should be fine under most circumstances? dunno about the blood orange/regular orange thing though. the taste difference between the two is sorta substantial...so i guess the peel would taste different too.

i missed the superbowl :p or to be more specific, i skipped in in favor of other activities...maybe i'm getting too old for football games i don't have a vested interest in.
