Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Thanks for the ~ma, everyone. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that something's going to get done.

I need new cookie sheets and cake pans and a sifter and a rolling pin and mixing bowls and a mixer.

Target's having a crazy sale on that stuff until tomorrow. I picked up two large Wilton professional weight cookie sheets for $10. It's normally $9.99 for one. I also saw a bundt cake pan (Wilton professional weight) for $5.

A brown paper bag will also turn banans brown faster.

ita, I'm sorry about the asshat doc at the ER. Does he expect you to live with the pain? Or does he just want someone else to deal with it?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I turned in my grades today. phew. I'd do a happy dance but I'm too tired.

KR I'm in awe of your cooking lately. I want to do some baking this weekend too, but I'm going for, um, sugar cookies or blondies or something easy.

Came home to a box from my college roommate. Enstrom's Almond Toffee - the single most delicious toffee ever made!

Damn, this stuff is addictive.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

my cookie plan is rolled sugar cookies and rolled spice cookies. If I get really into it, we might make bizcochos (the lard cookies) or gingerbread.

I also want to make lavender shortbread, but I'm not sure I'm up to that yet.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

I'm going to a Xmas party tomorrow and promised my friend I'd pick up some spiced rum so she'd have something to mix the Diet Coke and Sprite she has.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I'm doing oatmeal butterscotch, raspberry thumbprints, and chocolate chip pecan.

It's ridiculously cold in here, but can't figure out how to turn on this heater.

Target's having a crazy sale on that stuff until tomorrow.

Ooooh! Thanks for the heads up!
