Nice fake tits.

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

I have farmers market tomorrow and I MUST wake up on time and actually go this week.

And, at long last, I'll make a sour cherry clafouti. Should I get one pint or two?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm only vaguely sure what a clafouti is, but I bet it's more work than pancakes.

Which I now have. nom nom.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Dana, do I still own you money for the Vividcon dvd set? I have the feeling I do.

Um, yeah, looks like it. $10.50. The con's in mid-August, so I'll send you the DVDs after that.

Or e-mail me if you want to send a check.

How about I send you a check for $15 or so to cover postage?

I am e-mailing you right now!

I'm only vaguely sure what a clafouti is, but I bet it's more work than pancakes.

So not. Here's the recipe I use, which I think is partially Jesse's.

Clafoutis
2 tbsp butter
2 cups cherries (or blueberries)
4 eggs
½ cup sugar
½ cup lowfat milk
½ cup heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp dark rum
¾ cup flour
pinch salt

--Preheat oven to 350°. Place butter in 8x8 glass pan to melt in oven.
--Whisk eggs in bowl. Add sugar and whisk until mixture thickens and is pale yellow. Add milk, cream, vanilla, and rum. Whisk to combine. Add flour and salt. Whisk to combine.
--Layer berries over the bottom of the glass pan. Pour mixture over berries in pan.
--Bake, rotating once, about 45 minutes.

I think I mark the clafoutis all the time and never make it.

So my shoe fiasco from last week? GOT BETTER! Grace's shoes, which I also bought there and should fit her? One was a right size 4 and the other a right size 7.I have to go back for a THIRD time.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

But I'd have to wait an hour to eat a clafouti, whereas pancakes were ready in ten minutes.
