Watching my West Wing DVDs. Eating raw chocolate chip cookie dough since I forgot to leave the eggs out of the recipe. I like chewy thin choc chip cookies. The eggs make them rise. Since I failed to achieve the consistency I craved, I'm skipping the middleman and just eating the dough for dessert.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
You need some egg, though, don't you? I've found it's usually the proportion of flour that messes with cookie texture.
Not that I in any way discourage eating cookie dough.
Ugh, JZ. I'm sorry for Family Issues.
For anyone who missed it this year (like me), "A Charlie Brown Christmas" is being rebroadcast tonight at 8:00 Eastern time on ABC.
Augh! I missed it AGAIN! At least this reminded me to (I hope) set up to tape the Grinch. Although last time the TV thing said it was airing, it was Not.
John Spencer (Leo from WW) is dead.
Oh no! That's really sad.
But you have a diagnosis, and they have a plan
Like they said, that is something, tom.
(they let you keep the shoes, right, Jesse?).
Hells yes.
In other news, I'm slightly drunk, and have a new pink razr.
poor sick sara and cat (Mr. Kitty, right?).
Jesse, I have a video file of the Charlie Brown Christmas, and if you remind me once I get back home next week, I can yousendit to you.
When I read the "they have a plan" part, my first reaction was, "just like the Cylons."
Mine was more hoping that in their plan, they were maybe not so beltless. Glad you have a diagnosis, and all good thoughts for the best possible outcomes.
Not that I in any way discourage eating cookie dough.
Because that would be wrong. The discouraging.
That would be fabu, Dana. I have to admit, though, I really love the Grinch best. Even though I've gotten to a place in my life where I @@ at the idea that "the real meaning of Christmas is giving."
dana, did I ever ask you about mail?
Oh, and I missed the 11a Jesse Makeover show and am now sad.
So sad about John Spencer, too,
And JZ, sorry for your brother's troubles.

On a different note, Santa came through the hood on a fire truck tonight, and my 7-y.o. niece happens to be spending the night. She was So. Very. Excited. to see Santa. Woot! Serendipity rocks.
The recipe calls for 2 eggs. I've made them with one egg and they were okay, but they're really best with no eggs at all. The butter and sugar carmelize in this wonderful crunchy way.
