One last Alias thought, when Sark says "I told you she was special" and dude replies with "She is indeed special"

I kept thinking "SHORT BUS SPECIAL! EATS GLUE SPECIAL!" And not because of Syd herself, but because I always think that whenever I hear special.

And did anyone else notice that the handcuffs that sark came out of were all rhinestoney?

Blender used occasionally, toaster oven which lives in the basement, and doesn't get used, KitchenAid which sees moderate use, coffee pot which sees frequent use if I'm not pregnant, crock pot which I think we've used once, rice cooker which is seldom used, and a hand mixer used occasionally.

I think that's it.

Oh, I use the coffee pot every day, but I didn't think that counted in the Foreman grill/ stick blender category of kitchen stuff.

Cashmere, insent.

News from L.A.

"Escaped Chimpanzees Go On a Dangerous Rampage...News at 11"

I missed the Mennonite Mob but I might have to try and check this one out.

They escaped from the ghetto zoo, didn't they, Kristen?

The mennonite mob one? CRACKED ME UP.

On my local news promo, I had to hear the Promo Guy talking about 50 Cent and his posse. Of course he said "fifty," not "fiddy."

I don't know! They're telling me to wait until 11. I'm gonna have to look at the LA Times or something.

The down side to my DVR is that I often don't see the hilarious new promos until the next day and then I miss this actual segments. Though they probably aren't as funnny as the promos.

Kat, yes! I loved the sparkle on the cuffs. Mmm. Kink. Pretty.

Right. I have a crock pot too. I love that. I should make more soups.

Then again, I'm enough of a gadget ho that my gender was being called into question today. Either that, or I was being flirted with.

coffee pot I put in the gadgets because I don't use it.

and for those of you that have been following the Dutched cocoa saga I got this from foodtv.com:

If you only have nonalkalized cocoa, Nick Malgieri recommends adding a tiny pinch of baking soda to help smooth the flavor.
