Okay, my first congratulations to you, BT, were based on reading the announcement. Now I've had a chance to click through and look at the pictures--you guys look so serene and happy. It's so wonderful when anyone achieves that, and it seems almost weird (yet still natural) when I get to read it all happening.

Congratulations again.

Or -- what's the thing that people kept talking about a while ago? Clafouti?

Is that some kind of... pudding?

Have you been watching Alton Brown?

No, I've barely been home all week. It's just that the power of baked goods runs strong within my family. We think it's easier to face the world armed with chocolate chip cookies and a blueberry buckle fresh from the oven.

you guys look so serene and happy

A million times this.

Congrats, BT.

One of the Good Eats (reruns, I assume) last week was about cobbler, and I think he spent about twenty minutes of the show listing variations on cobbler.

Maybe because it's TRUE!

I really, really do not like bananas. I'm sorry. I've tried. It's not them, it's me.

Add me to this list.

Congrats, Billytea! You two look wonderful and happy.

Freak-ass banana haters.

Stands in the corner with Dana and Nora

My migraine specialist told me to give up bananas for a while to see if they were a contributing factor to the headaches.

Turns out not, but I've felt little urge to reintegrate them into my diet, despite having been a one-a-day consumer beforehand.

Weird.

It's probably that there's no fruit space left since the tangerine and blueberry obsessions began.

Okay, got to go to my HR appointment for the new job. So much to do ahead of time here.
