I love it when a plan comes together - I came home a sweated some leeks, then added garlic. I added some chopped ham that I had discovered in the freezer earlier this week. I threw in some butter and flour sauteed it for a second, then added milk. to this lovely mixture, I added some truffle cheese. when the cheese melted, I added whole wheat penne and a handful of fresh spinach. Mmmmm. And the sauce was so well flavored that I couldn't taste the spinach, but it added a nice texture.
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Cute house, erin! I look forward to seeing what you do with it.

I was reading some more stuff on his website but I couldn't bring myself to read the testimonials.

Woe! Woe is the Cupcake of Gothness! I learn of the existence of black and pink skeleton tights, only to discover that the entire interwebs is sold out of them. Probably to people who will only wear them once, for a costume. Don't these people understand that I NEED black and pink skeleton tights in my everyday wardrobe?

I had bread and cheese for dinner. My boring pseudo-european meal hangs its head in shame.
The sellers have 4 kids. In a 2 bed/1 bath hs. So the younger ones sleep in the "finished" basement (quotes because the ceiling is hobbit-height.) Apparently they are moving back to the family homestead in Guadalajara. Leetle more space.

ok -- so I wasn't going crazy thinking there were a billion beds.
I think the house has great potential. It has a lot of charm now, it just needs to lighten up .

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Glad you are ok, Toddson.
Good luck with that bathroom, erin_o.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
I'm head over heels to find something in such good shape (structurally speaking) in such a nice neighborhood in my price range. Still a little stunned. All my coworkers are jealous of how nice the area is *chuckle* They do not envy me the work i'll be doing for the next umpteen years reversing some of the more egregious decorating choices...but it's still a pretty amazing find for me. *swoon*
Wow, the evening news just referred to someone being diagnosed with "The H1N1". Not "the H1N1 virus" or "H1N1" but "THE H1N1" (accent sic). i am inordinately amused by the article use. Maybe i should not have had that glass of wine? I should not laugh at the suffering of other. And really, i'm not. It's the article usage!!
