I've been depressing myself by reading ChildrenofHoarders.com and SqualorSurvivors.com. I think I'll go clean the living room....

Opened it and everything. When I knocked on his door, he knew just why I was there.
What an ass. Who opens another person's package?

Yikes. I'm kind of afraid to look, but kind of think I ought to.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yeah, he's a thorough consummate ass.
How interchangeable is yoghurt with sour cream in baking? I have all this yoghurt and a craving for sour cream cupcakes. I know the leavening aspect should be fine--but what about texture? Less light and fluffy?

I stopped at a Speedway gas station today and there was a sticker on the pump saying that there was a $50 limit purchase on pay-at-the-pum for Visa and $75 limit for Mastercard. The note said it wasn't a company policy (meaning Speedway?).
At $3.19/gallon, this limit could be very inconvenient for people trying to fill up their tanks.
Has anyone heard of this before? I haven't and I've been buying gas and paying at the pump for a very long time.

If not, either more powdered sugar, or just forget the frosting.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
My sister bought a second house. We've been talking about buying a "vacation home" in Charlottesville (Virginia) because her daughters are there, and we both like the town. The plan was to wait until we sold the farmhouse, maybe the end of next year, but then Kim (oldest daughter) decided she didn't want to renew her lease on her tiny apartment, and my sister thought, if we had a house there, she could pay us that rent money, and then while I was in Atlanta, my sister, who never does things spontaneously, went to C'ville, found a realtor, found a house, made a low offer, and last week called to tell me she got the house. I can't believe it. It's gorgeous; it's exactly what I wanted. I told her months ago, when you're ready, the right house will be there, and I guess I was right! Sorry to be posting my happy house news amongst other people's house woes, but I'm really excited about this and I want to share! I was going to sit on the news a little longer, but Kim posted all about it in her LJ, so the bag is now devoid of cats. House photos are here.

Hee.
I also tasted a bit of it and realized that I accidently made the frosting with salted margarine, rather than unsalted. (I'm having a scatterbrained day.) I'm not sure it's salvagable.
TiVo suggestions are weird. Just got my new TiVo. I recorded two movies: The African Queen and The Sea of Grass. Based on this, Tivo recorded BeastMaster, Batman Returns, an episode of Bonanza, an episode of Gunsmoke, and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.

Vortex! Both my sister's girls are at UVA. Kim says the house is on Mill Creek, out Avon St. Extended...5 minutes out of town on the south side.
