Ah, I don't worry about old eggs. I keep eggs forever, and have never had a problem. Actually, it's possible I don't have a cup of flour in the house right now, but once I go to the grocery store, I'll have flour again for another year. Ha!
We're in love. We're ... lovers. We're lesbian, gay-type lovers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
That reminds me. I need to decide what I'm going to bake today, and make sure I have all the ingredients. Otherwise, when I come back from krav, I'm too distracted to assemble.
What to bake, what to bake?

Squishy chocolate cake! Or Baileys cheesecake, which doesn't actually count as baking, but still.
Or cookies, with Green and Black's dark chocolate crumbled in as chips. Mmm. Plus, they last longer than cake.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
You don't have flour, an egg, and milk?
2 out of three is good, right? Though I think the milk is a little iffy.
I have flour though!
ita, I vote cupcakes.

Why is Bailey's cheesecake not baking?
I'm thinking the CI chocolate cupcakes. Maybe go as far as ganache on top.

I buy that egg substitute stuff since it last so freaking long, and evaporated milk works fine in recipes. Since I don't eat eggs or drink milk regularly, it works a lot better for me than trying to keep on top of the fresh stuff. (I've never worried about eggs going bad either, but they have a tendency to freeze in my fridge since I keep it really cold, so they're not really usable anyway.)

Ah. 'Cos I don't cook it. Just stick it in the fridge. I think I'd use 'make' rather than 'bake'.

I keep eggs in the fridge all the time, and toss and replace without impunity. In fact, my fridge looks a lot better when I periodically sweep and replace. I make a note of what's not getting used, and try and fix that next shopping trip, but I don't angst about it.
First world, I know.
I've never made a chilled cheesecake.

Cupcakes are never a wrong answer.
I always have eggs around, but never milk, since E uses soy on his cereal, and I never have any use for it at all.
I just noticed my nails are getting too long for typing. I should do something about that today.

Mine's in the cookbook somwhere. Easiest heart attack recipe ever.
Also, I couldnt live without milk. I drink about a litre a day. And lets just not mention the cheese.
Cupcakes are never a wrong answer.
Are cupcakes a specific thing, like fairy cakes, or do they cover a multitude?
