Man, having someone at my house during work hours is so helpful. I was able to call my mom and get some info I needed and am getting Free replacement Fire/CM detectors sent out to me now. The ones I bought in the Spring went belly up and they have a 5 year warrenty. PLUS she's cooking so dinner will be homemade and DONE. man, I need a house elf.
I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

That's what the allspice is for. Upon eating, it reveals them. Like those brownies on Angel.
