I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Also want to know what I did all this week as I can suddenly fill in my time sheets (we bill clients, so we must track time.)

"conference with so-and-so" covers a lot.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Also want to know what I did all this week as I can suddenly fill in my time sheets (we bill clients, so we must track time.).

That happens to me every friday. You'd think that by know I'd learned to enter my time each day. (Well, some days I do....) Usually I log into our client's system and check the modified dates of certain files and use that to reconstruct my activities. If I make major changes to code I put the date in a comment, so sometimes I search for that. Emails often come in handy to determine when I started or finished something.

vw is teasing with the chocolatey goodness!

GF and I make awesome peppermint bark at Christmas. Melt white chocolate with a few drops of peppermint extract. Pour onto parchment and chill. Melt dark chocolate. Pour over white chocolate. Sprinkle with crushed candy canes and chill. Break into pieces and shove into your mouth. MMMMMMMM!!!!!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Scallops are my second favorite meat. Mmmm... meat.

You take some of the chocolate, melt it, spread it on parchment paper, then chill till it hardens. Then you break it into pieces, sprinkle it with powdered sugar, then randomly insert them into the top of the cake.

Dear, heavens. That sounds incredible! Take pictures when you're done.

More food porn: [link] I had these (grit cakes at Top of the Hill in Chapel Hill, NC) last week and they were to die for. My mouth is watering just thinking about them.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Ppffbbtt! I wouldn't be getting it cut "Hec-short" anyway, as I'm the one person that would make you say "You know, long hair is better." I look like Carol Burnett with any short cut.

Clearly lies as it is impossible to make Raquel look anything other than glamorous.

Check out the menu at Suppenkuche where we'll be eating on Saturday night before see Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on IMAX. It's german food but very very good.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Our grocery store makes a fabulous ham and butter sandwich. Baguette. Good ham, sliced thin. Good butter.

I had one of them on Sunday. It really is amazingly good, and I'm not even a ham fan.

There should be a jambon song.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yep.

Also doing this. Especially checking what emails I sent, as emails are CYA gold here. Unfortunately.

I was complaining about this last week, when I only had to jot stuff down on paper, and this exchange took place:
me: I have to do a timesheet for yesterday and today. What did I do?
mfm: Bitched?????
me: Now if I only knew how to code that...
mfm: Stress management???

Frell, I worked on a job that was closed. The computer doesn't believe me.

Mostly lurking...

Take pictures when you're done.

Oh, there will be pictures! Trust me!

Crossing my fingers, though, because I'm breaking my rule of testing recipes before serving them to guests. So, could be interesting.

ETA: Dog bone biscuits are in the oven. Next - carob cupcakes.
