Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yesterday afternoon I drove from Minneapolis to Chicago. There was rain. Lots and lots of rain. And lots of traffic. Lots of "Can I slam on my brakes hard enough to avoid hitting the suddenly-stopped car in front of me, but not hard enough to lock the brakes up?"

Am so tired.

My aunt insists that no proper clafouti has pitted cherries,

Is there a spittoon at the table for the pits?!?

Ann, that's a ferret.

And there is supposed to be MORE rain.

The flash flood watch has been extended to tomorrow evening.

Hah. No, this is where you perfect the art of hand-to-mouth-to-plate disposal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This is what I'm saying! I can see the flavor argument, but the convenience of being able to eat the whole bite of food outweighs it, IMO. I guess this is why I'm not French.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Timelies,

Just skipped a whole bunch. (Surprising, I know).

Sounds like lots of rain and other suck is going on for folks.

My aunt insists that no proper clafouti has pitted cherries, it ruins the flavor.

I don't know what a clafouti is, but the thought of eating anything with unpitted cherries in it makes my teeth hurt.

Personally, my cousin and I have long suspected that she's just lazy and the flavor argument is a cover.

But, in looking through my French cookbook, I see the debate extends beyond my family. I found two cherry clafouti recipes, one with pitted cherries ("Grandmother's" Clafouti—hah, so appropriate) and one without.

I confess that the idea of not having to pit the cherries makes it way more likely that I would make a proper clafouti. But still, it's nuts.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

How interesting. The only time I've made clafouti was with peaches, so I guess it was "clafouti".

Tasty, in any case.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I still don't know what clafouti is!
