I look more rad than Lutheranism

Emily, I hope everything turns out well for your stepdad.

ION, I officially hate today. Everyone at work seems to be conspiring to demand shit from me every 7 minutes or so, which means I can't get anything finished. Must....control....fist of death....

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

I searched for dried cherries and baking and found several recipes available, as well as a cherry website that says this:

Dear Jane: I have dried cherries and want to make a pie. How do I plump up the cherries.

I would not make an entire pie with dried cherries. You paid a premium to buy the dried product. Use canned or frozen tart cherries for the pie. If you want to increase the cherry flavor of the pie, sprinkle about ΒΌ cup dried over the filling before adding the top crust and baking. Dried cherries are a great addition to other fruit pies and cobblers; there is no need to plump them, just mix in some with the filling before baking. I particularly like to add a few dried cherries to apple pie or peach cobbler.

I think I agree that a whole pie with dried cherries might be too much. I like to use my dried cherries in a sour cherry hazelnut creme brulee. So yummy! Recipe available if interested (also submitted to the cookbook).

I am the originator of the dried cherry question, and I'm wondering if the suggestion not to use solely dried cherries is a cost issue. My housemate doesn't remember how he got them and in fact forgot they were there.

Up with the sun

Good thoughts and vibes for Emily's stepdad.

I can't see any reason why that God would be micromanagery and petty over who we have sex with and what we do on Sunday. Which, obviously, is fine with me.

I don't think He would be, either. I mean, there is the teensy tiny chance He does care, for reasons unknowable to us, but I think most Earth religions are people trying to make a God we can't comprehend understandable.

And last night I dreamed something about an online roleplaying game I'm participating in, and I still thought the events of the dream were going on when I woke up. It was a confusing few seconds.
