ita: I sift for cakes, but not for bread or cookies. I also whisk for cakes (with my Kitchenaid). When I'm totally on fire, I sift before measuring. If the obsession takes over, I sift before weighing.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Vortex, I think you need Matt's starting comment for that to make sense:
Matt: Ugh. No. More. Babies!

Carb porn in Bitches:
PMM: AU/Het/Chall./Upper-end R/Part 1 of a series.
Hec: gets out decoder ring...
Steph L.: Alternate Universe/Heterophony/Challah bread/Upper-end Rivets/Part...
(Heh. Bread porn. Challah/Sourdough 4Evah!)
PMM: Steph, that decoder is broken.
Steph: I stand by my hope for bread porn.
PMM: Dude, I don't even mention bread in this, but perhaps I can work it in to the next one.
Or I can have Bagel/Challah.
Steph: No, man -- Bagel/Challah is creepy and stalkerish.
Challah/Sourdough 4Eva!!1!
PMM: Please. OTP.
Steph: You could not be more wrong if you tried.
Am-Chau: Don't be silly. Muffin/Bagel4Evah!
Trudy: See now, Pita/Challah you get into some real cross-cultural angst as well as hot, hot, desert sex.
Throw in powdered sugar and it's dessert sex. THEN you have a party.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
flea, in Natter:
I spent a whole day last week with the Hawaii-Somewhere-Over-The-Rainbow-Dr.-Green-Is-Dying theme song in my head. But that was only because I was worried I had a brain tumor. It was a nice kind of oh-well-i'll-go-to-Hawaii-to-die worry.

It's hard, Trudy. I'll just have to cleave unto the porn if they take the taunting away.

Dana: Now, of course, I'm perfectly okay with platforms like, "Boy, wouldn't Wesley/Connor be messed up, yet hot?".
p.m. marcontell: A tangle of thin, pale limbs, angry blue eyes, and dark haired goodness, even.
That's a Special platform.
amych: Isn't that the Special Platform where one catches the train to Special Hell?
p.m. marcontell: Platform 13.666, in fact.
It's a rather full train.
