Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

I have achieved mango puree. It has been mixed with ginger paste, and will be combined with flour, sugar, and butter tomorrow.

Also, I am breaking all the "doing this will kill you!" rules by softening butter by just leaving it on the counter overnight. I truly live on the edge.

I do this all the time. The only time I refrigerate butter is at the height of summer. I'm a butter rebel. It's gotta be soft enough to spread.

I don't use butter too often (I live alone, don't bake very often, and usually use olive oil for cooking), so I usually keep butter in the freezer and just defrost what I need. But for this, I need two sticks, and my microwave is broken so I can't just defrost that way.

JZ, the first six months of parenthood = Hell's Boot Camp.

Then they get bigger, and start to brag about the size of their penis, it seems.

Tomorrow is going to suck cock for crack. We have to go and purge the fridge/freezer. Oy.

With any luck Certain People will Actually Sleep tonight, now that we're back in our own house.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I think it's fine to soften butter on the counter as long as you don't have cats.

Yay for the house of Plei having power! What a godawful storm.

Now I'm watching The Matrix when I should be going to bed. I've decided it's Hugo Weaving Night.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I only worry about the butter being out of the fridge when it forms puddles. My cat is not interested in butter. However, when DH took he out of the big chair, my cat gave a yowl of the most pitying heartbroken, 'but I just had my dinner and it was time for a nap in the soft place' kind. DH is a sucker and put him back in the chair with soothing pets.

Yeah, Plei, for being home! Sorry about the fridge and freezer of doom. Hopefully things won't be too bad.

My current cube of butter lives on the counter. The rest of the box lives in the fridge and any other boxes bought on sale live in the freezer. I have varied this method those times when I lived somewhere hot, but those times have been few and far between.
