Wait, when did muffins become cake? I that that was just for bread.

FWIW, I've heard that if you're brewing the same kind of coffee beans, there's little reason to do more than rinse out the coffee pot -- a percolater brings the coffee water up to boiling as a matter of course, so unless old coffee has sat in the percolater for days (long enough for the bean oil to go rancid) you can just rinse & reuse indefinitely.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Well, are they bread? Nah, they're just cupcakes wearing muscle shirts, pretending to be healthy.

One of the engineers at a job I had four or five years ago explained in detail to me how long it takes the caffiene molecule to break down in water, and explained that that is why coffee gets bitter.
There's no explaining why the coffee I just bought here is bitter and greasy right from the get-go, though.

Heh. I posted a request for the CI cupcake recipe in Natter. Weren't cupcakes being discussed there yesterday?

Cash is jonesing for cupcakes.
Folks at the A's blog have nicknamed our rookie pitcher, Joe Blanton, Cupcakes. He's a little on the portly side and there was a picture of him early in the season captioned, "Yes, I will have that last cupcake." He's a good young pitcher. Not as good as King Felix, though, who shut down the (admittedly anemic) A's offense last night.

This is adorable.
When I was very little, I asked my dad how Babe Ruth could be a good baseball player. I said, "Daddy, isn't he too fat to run the bases very fast?" My dad replied, "Honey, he didn't have to do much running."

Thank you, Theo, for redeeming my slobbishness.

I think his fastball got up to 99 mph yesterday. Pretty damn amazing. Though given the M's recent luck with young pitchers, I keep expecting his arm to go flying off at the shoulder any game now.
