Lassi in Nyc

Born in upstate New York, K was the only one who actually used our pots and pans. She bought things like "produce, " and "dairy products." A few times, she whipped up this Saltine-butter-chocolate dessert that I can't even think of without salivating all over my desk. (Seriously, Saltines? Who knew they didn't have to taste like drywall?) One of her favorite concoctions, which I had never heard of at the time, and now order/make at every opportunity, was the lassi.

Essentially a thick Indian yogurt drink, lassis are intended to calm taste buds during a spicy meal. But, much like its fruity cousin the mango lassi, the sweet lassi is also delicious on its own.

While there were a bazillion options online, the recipe attached below is adapted from the Whole Foods website. It seemed simple enough, and turned out well. Only changes: I used low-fat yogurt and cut out the rosewater, since, uh, I don't know what it is or where to find it. (I will rectify this situation for next time.)

Nowadays, K is married to a wonderfully awesome dude, who I am sure is benefiting from her years of experience and experiments. I wish I had appreciated it more when we were roomies. (Besides the Saltine thing. I appreciated that constantly). Ready you are Lassi Please visit in the site www.indomunch.com for extra details.

Online dating problem! What should I do?
So I met this girl online about 2 months ago and we've been talking it up - online and on the phone. We both really like each other - she is going to be turning 17 soon and I will be turning 19 soon. She lives in upstate NYC and I live in Eastern Mass...which is a good 5-6 hour ride. I asked her if she wants to come here for a few days in the summer and she said maybe. I am worried that her parents might not let her! How should we go about it? How should she reason it to them? Is there anything I can do to make my case better? OMG please. I am serious about this and I am a nice guy who has plans for a bright future and as a matter of fact I would NEVER do anything to hurt any girl :( PEOPLE. I DID NOT ASK you if she is jail bait or not. I have not intentions of having sex with her until she is legal and wants it. I need advice...not someone who is going to scorn me.
