My mother brought one of those bowls back from Poland -- love it.
It's just occurred to me that my coworkers probably think I'm hung over. I'm tired and cranky and have been drinking a ton of water. I'm totally not. I'm just tired! And cranky! And thirsty!
Hi everybody!
I drive to work, in a minivan no less, but DH makes up for my gas consumption by taking the bus. And you can bet as soon as they finish the new metro line that will go from my neighborhood to 'SC that I'll take it, but that's still years away.
I need a cup of coffee like whoa. Was up at midnight last night--that was bad planning.
I like this one too, but am confused over the phrase "light oven and microwave use." Does that mean only use it in the microwave very occasionally?
light oven and microwave use
I read the light as modifying the oven, not the microwave. I would say light more means at a low temperature or not very long rather than infrequent, in this case.
Drat, so much for wanting to cook a turkey in 15 minutes inside a potter's kiln!
shrift, was the super-swanky restaurant you went for a meal at in Chicago Alinea?
damn but dishes are expensive. I need to let the family know I am in need of a few more pieces of my pattern and let them start the ebay searches.
I thought Shrift went to Charlie Trotter's.
And look - I found my parent's china. (Actually stoneware. . .that they didn't get until the '80s.)
It was indeed Charlie Trotter's.
I'm getting distracted here, but isn't this a gorgeous chip-n-dip set?
Timelies all!
I'd take public transportation to work if it didn't cost more than driving. Stupid parking fees at the Metro stop....
