When I first met Doreen, she was barely seventeen...
I know that song! Okay, not in the sense of being able to place it further than "it's on the Chicago F2F CD DX gave me", but still, I do know it.
DX, is the Palm Pilot working out?
To celebrate work being slow, I walked over to the Indian buffet lunch place a couple of blocks away. It was the yum.
How is that different from Keebler's Pinwheels, which is a cookie with marshmallow fluff coated in chocolate?
It sounds like not different. But Mallomars are
seasonal.
Which makes them better.
Mallomars are seasonal.
Is it that you can't get them in the summer because they melt, or are the holiday related in some way?
I have a deep well of mallomar ignorance that has just been waiting to be tapped.
Well, I just did my good work deed for the day. I was on the phone with someone at the Kansas Secretary of State's office getting the updated list of chapter numbers assigned to the new state laws, and I ended up giving her a list of state websites to check out for design ideas, so they could get their damn chapter numbers online like the other 49 states do. I hate always calling and begging them to fax me the list, so my advice wasn't altogether altruistic, but she thanked me for the suggestions.
Were you visiting any family or friends, or were you there only as pilgrims? What did you get to see while you were there?
Pretty much just visiting family and relaxing. In between visits to aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents, we saw a lot of Jerusalem including the old city and the western wall, and a charming little park called mini-Israel which had little models of all the famous and almost famous sites in Israel.
In short, I felt like we were barely there. And we're already talking about doing it again (after I get that plush new job.)
That sounds fantastic, Wolfram.
Is it that you can't get them in the summer because they melt,
That's what they say. You also can basically only get them in the north east.
Perkins, I haven't done much with it yet. I do plan on playing with it on the plane to NOLA.
That sounds really nice, Wolfram. I'm glad you got to go, and hope you get a chance to go for longer soon.
You also can basically only get them in the north east.
Aha! THis explains the vast well of ignorance.
Seriously, I heard them mentioned on an episode of
Roseanne
lo these many years ago and have always wondered what the hell they were.
(eta: is a cake in convenient cookie form like a muffin top but from a cup cake?)
I just noticed that the grocery store up here actually sells muffin tops. Thanks, my life is Seinfeldian enough as it is.
