molasses has a very distinctive flavor, it's not just sweet. I make a wicked tasty molasses cookie.

Also? I would love to have those glasses, they're adorable.

So today I am meeting up with an old friend from middle school for a brunch/playdate with the kids. I am SO EXCITED about it. She was one of my bestest friends, but we lost touch for about a decade.

Those glasses are adorable times 20.

I thought we got out early today. I was wrong. Doh.

I lost my sunglasses. Again. Der.

Most complex crop circle ever discovered in British fields

The formation, measuring 150ft in diameter, is apparently a coded image representing the first 10 digits, 3.141592654, of pi.

It is has appeared in a field near Barbury Castle, an iron-age hill fort above Wroughton, Wilts, and has been described by astrophysicists as "mind-boggling".

Michael Reed, an astrophysicist, said: "The tenth digit has even been correctly rounded up. The little dot near the centre is the decimal point.

I did worse than lose my sunglasses, I broke one of the arms off. I so need new sunglasses.

Hey Kat, I have a nice bag o' 2T clothes for Noah and Grace. We should make a plan to meet up at some point now that your classes are ending.

Happy Birthday Plei!

Today in my coworkers are insane: The eHarmony page for our ex-Group Manager (she's still here, just with a different title) is printed out on multiple sheets of 8x11-mosaic style and pasted on an entire wall in the cafe.

That crop circle is awesome.

After careful consideration, I've come to the conclusion that today is bad and wrong and a stupid poopyheaded day.

Folks in England have it rough: Gardeners warned slug epidemic this summer will be 'the stuff of nightmares'

They're slimy, they're hungry, and they're heading for your garden this summer.

Gardeners have been warned to expect an epidemic of slugs over the next few months.

The wet and mild weather throughout spring has made perfect conditions to create 'the stuff of nightmares' for gardeners.

Experts claim there could be up to 200 slugs per cubic metre of soil, four times the usual amount, with each capable of eating double their weight in plants each day.

The Zooillogix blog sez this:

The English are facing the slug threat with their characteristic stiff upper lips. Some are even looking to utilize the slug surfeit with such "splendid" culinary inventions as slug Wellington, bangers and slug and slugshire pudding.

Everytime I think Tyra Banks is just a windbag, I see a photo of her like this where she is achingly beautiful.

Burrell, absolutely! Before summer school... maybe next week.
