'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
100g "Rorinen" or "Ronnen" or something like that.
Hil, this must be Rosinen - raisins. Though putting them in a Berliner is news to me; here, Berliners are jam-filled doughnuts.
Did you see my earlier post that I told you the wrong measurements?
I'd love to see some of the recipes once you've finished transcribing them, they sound fantastic.
That meal does sound incredible shrift.
Reminds me that one of the nice (but not THAT nice) places here allows you to reserve a table in their wine cellar—something I need to keep in mind if I ever go on another real date this century.
Gah. Somebody please tell me how I'm supposed to respond to an RFP question requiring us to identify all of our offices (there are 160-some), number of specialists in a particular function, and a couple of other details when they have explicitly limited our responses to a maximum of 100 words per question? For fuck's sake.
Ugh. I hate that shit, and agree with the summary answer. Although just yesterday I decided to completely ignore an RFP question because it was really complicated and I only noticed it a couple of hours before the deadline. Oops.
Well, it looks like I'm caving.
Wait, no, I am caving, even if one considers my position not one that was mine to take. My ride to the ER should be here in half an hour or so.
Recovery and health to you, ita.
I hope the ER visit resulted in a pain free deep sleep night for ita. The doctor visit TODAY needs to yield a better plan.
shrift, that sounds like an awsome dining experience. I've had some good meals out in my day, but nothing remotely that special (I think the only place that might compare in Boston is L'Espalier, which I've never been to).
So, I've figured out how to get to work before 9.... Just go to bed at 9:30! Ridiculous, but true. Every night this week, I've had the lights off around 10, and woken up at 6:30, as opposed to resisting the alarm at 7. I think I find this to be Not Worth It, in the larger scheme of things.
I know the conversation has moved on, but I'm surprised that BosWash didn't come up in the discussion of portmanteau cities.
Yay, dcp! It's not surprising, though. Your nature photography is wonderful. I always love the bird pictures.
Speaking of dcp's photo, a co-worker just popped by with a copy of the AALL (American Association of Law Librarians) magazine, with a photo she had taken a few months ago in it! There was a fawn curled up under the tree just outside our window here at work back in March, and Karen snapped a picture of it and her boss passed it onto the AALL people at a convention a few weeks ago, and it ended up in the newest issue.
