d, here at my school it was illegal to have the temp over 84 degrees- this was when it was summer (though the heat malfunctioned a few weeks ago too). We had to go home if the temp got that high. I don't know if it's my workplace or MA state law or what, but that's the number they use here.
Spike's Bitches 43: Who am I kidding? I love to brag.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
And Andi, those newspaper people need to be smacked. Can you call their offices and lodge a complaint?
Yeah, we're going to have to do it. It seems like at least once a winter we have to let the newspaper people know that their snow removal guys need a talking-to.
d, good luck with the neti pot and hydrogen peroxide.
Gronk. So little sleep last night.
Anne, I forgot to buy eggs last night for baking. So, I'm in the same boat. I was going to make brownies or a quick bread just for us this week. For Christmas I think I am mostly making various kinds of chocolate bark to gift to people we don't buy gifts for. Does anyone have any good recipes/ideas besides peppermint bark?
sj, we make bark with dark chocolate, dried cranberries, and pistachios, which is always pretty yummy.

Yum. Maybe I'll do that with almonds instead of pistachios. I don't really like pistachios.
My older nephew is not biologically related to me, so he is not supposed to take after me, but it seems he got a lousy report card this quarter because he hasn't done nearly any homework. He's bored by it.
For those who are going to give birth, how do you like this maternity hospital?
sj, if you've got mayonaise, you can substitute an egg-sized blob of it in many recipes. I've used it in in corn bread, brownies, cake mixes, and meatloaf. Nice and moist, and doesn't add weird flavor to the sweet stuff like you might expect.
Thanks, Windsparrow. Neither of us like mayo, so we don' have any.
See? This is what comes of the mayo-hate.
Then there's my daughter, for whom mayo is a separate food group.
