Why stick with one dessert? We will be ten, and will likely have at least four kinds of dessert: Carrot cake, some kind of pie, brownies, and a variety of cookies...and possibly an ice cream cake.
Tact is just not saying true stuff. I'll pass.

I was not able to get the ingredients yesterday for the cake I'd planned for my Mom's Birthday. So I made what I did have ingredients for, an upside down Peach Torte, which came out well.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just realized I'm about to have the most time off I've ever had while employed. And for only five vacation days! Bananas.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
It's gotten warmer here in NY, but it's also gotten a whole lot windier, so it's probably a net loss for us.

It's gotten darker here. I can't imagine that has helped with the making it less cold.

Boyfriend claims that it will be much warmer by the time I get there tomorrow night but I have my doubts.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The 10 Worst Predictions for 2008
“Peter writes: ‘Should I be worried about Bear Stearns in terms of liquidity and get my money out of there?’ No! No! No! Bear Stearns is fine! Do not take your money out. … Bear Stearns is not in trouble. I mean, if anything they’re more likely to be taken over. Don’t move your money from Bear! That’s just being silly! Don’t be silly!” —Jim Cramer, responding to a viewer’s e-mail on CNBC’s Mad Money, March 11, 2008
Hopefully, Peter got a second opinion. Six days after the volatile CNBC host made his emphatic pronouncement, Bear Stearns faced the modern equivalent of an old-fashioned bank run. Amid widespread speculation on Wall Street about the bank’s massive exposure to subprime mortgages, Bear’s shares lost 90 percent of their value and the investment bank was sold for a pittance to JPMorgan Chase, with a last-minute assist from the U.S. Federal Reserve.
