glad to hear GC is ok the morning after. I love how we Buffistas rally together. We really need our own nation/state. Maybe call it Utopia.
Since I bought the basic baking ingredients, I spent the morning baking. First time from scratch in YEARS. The cookies taste ok, but look horrid. I suspect I "softened" the butter too much. The cookies oozed real thin while baking.
Also, NBC is showing a 90 min thang on this years Paralympic Games. About time. Why not broadcast the games? I guess Title IX doesn't cover that. Something is better nothing.

omnis, keep writing those baking posts and I'll have to ask you to move in.

They probably needed more flour. The amount of water already in flour is highly variable. I usually add flour if the first batch becomes too thin. I actually like cookies to be thin and crispy.
Publix had butterscotch bits on at half price. They usually aren't there at all, but all kinds of things have reappeared for the holidays. I shouldn't have bought any, but I had a sudden nostalgic desire for butterscotch oaties. (That's a cookie from the '60s. It's an oatmeal cookie made with butterscotch chips, which are like chocolate chips.)
mmm... now I want blondies

We called that an oatmeal scottie.
I am feeling like a failed grown-up right now.

Did you drink too much in Silverlake AND litter? Because the bar here is pretty high today...

Even if that were true (which it's not), it doesn't mean you get demoted back to high school. For which we can all be thankful. Particularly GC because she'd be grounded for the next two months.
Since you don't have a choice about being a grown-up you might as well take care of the things that need to be taken care of tomorrow.
Also, bug, you really are the least reliable judge of yourself. Which you well know from therapy. Your standards are so unrealistic you live in an almost constant state of failing. Which has nothing to do what you have or haven't accomplished, and a lot to do with your expectations.

Shir, C'mon over. I won't be eating any of them. Today is closing for the show, so I made the choco chips for the crew. But I'll happily bake/cook for you. I make brownies too. And quiche (once, but it was good), lasagna, and and... Aw shit, now I'm hungry and I have to go to work.
VW, you ok?? What happened??
