Instead of an Easter egg hunt, we're going to have a Swedish meatball hunt! I'm so excited, I almost fell asleep....

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Still observing Passover here. Not quite at the "completely sick of matzah and related products" stage, but getting close.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Getting laundry done so I have something to wear to my dad's for Easter dinner. Unfortunatey, someone else had the same idea, but at least they thought of it 30 minutes before I did, so they have their stuff already in the dryer. I should have my laundry all done by noon, so I'll still be relatively on time.

Other than that, I'm really on the ball today--I've set up my VCR for tonight's West Wing, took my shower, and even did the rest of my dishes from last night!

Your tag here.

Apropos of Easter, here's a fun quiz on reincarnation (ok, it's not quite the same thing as resurrection). I'm returning as a bear.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm so with you. On the plus side, I've never made it this far into Passover without breaking down, so yay. On the down side, so flat. So very, very flat.

What is even happening?

amy, you're all unleavened.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

On the down side, so flat. So very, very flat.

Did you hear that baking powder and baking soda can be considered kosher for Passover now (if they're certified by Orthodox kosher-for-Passover certification people)? (The logic apparently being, well, if they'd had baking powder at the time, there would have been time to make biscuits just as easily as matzah.)

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

Where you at Typhoon?

Yes, yes I was. It came down to crickets or ants (they totally need a 4-insect sampler appetiser) and the waiter recommended the crickers.

I did hear that, Jess. And it makes all kinds of sense -- what with quick breads being quick, and all.

Ah. I would have headed upstairs, myself. Oh well.
