Windsparrow, I have to say, those were the best batch I ever made too. Just a hint of crisp on the outside, chewey on the inside, and yummy all around. I'd offer to make you a batch, but I'm afraid I won't be able to recreate that perfection again. I may never bake Choco Chip cookies again
Eh, I'm doing the "avoiding sugars and starches" thing anyway. Gotta say, mood and energy level are delicious. Just started this past Monday, and by Thursday, I was scaring myself how much I getting done at work. So for a reward to reap, that's pretty good. And it's not like I can't have any chocolate, just have to stick to the really good dark stuff.
I need a couple of wise cracking robots so I can MST3K this flick.
So, question for other people: were you always good, academically, at whatever it is you ended up doing or being good at as an adult?
Pretty much. Though they did think I had a disability around age two, and my PhD brother was given professional assessment because he was still barely talking at age four.
I laughed out loud at this from Overheard Everywhere.
Captain, over intercom, after lights go out: You are getting veeeery sleeeeeepy... You do not want peaaanuts... You do not want soooodaaa... You just want to sleeeep until we laaaaand.

The tests I was given were because I had a lot of trouble with arithmetic. I was fine with the concepts, but just couldn't remember all the arithmetic facts. (Like, given 26+18, I could explain to you why you add six plus eight and why you carry the one, but I'd also be pretty likely to tell you that six plus eight was 13, or 17, or pretty much any other number in the teens was about as likely as me saying 14.)
My academic skills of the past have no relation to what I do for a living.
Sad, but true. My job skills came out of hobby stuff
So, anyone else think The Divine Ms Maddow's partner looks a LOT like Fay in this shot? [link]
Lucky Maddow.
Holy crap! Doppelgangers!
She does! At first, I thought she resembled my mother, if my mother were arty and gay...the fun Freud would have with that, and she does, a little, but not as much as she looks like Fay.
Clearly, Maddow is a woman of EXCELLENT taste.
I think that sewage in Yiddish, at least according to the online dictionary, is opgang kanal. And from my search to confirm it (mostly in wikipedia), I think that "go" is "gay".
