Oh man, this discussion is reminding me that I have to write a scathing email to the folks that run the shuttle bus I take from the train station to work.
Sweet lumpy minion, you're the only one that understands. Probably 'cause I haven't sucked the brain out of you yet.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
I have a friend who's both a full-time wheelie and a serious cook; she designed her own house and her kitchen is TO DIE FOR. (Varying heights, moveable countertops and appliances, varied depths of things. Every time I visit, I reset my brain about how the standardized sizes really aren't so much ideal as just average. Plus, awesome for parties.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I have trouble with a regular-height kitchen counter just from being too short. "Average height" for design purposes generally starts at about four inches taller than me.

Nodnod. And not as easy to alter as pants.

Her kitchen sounds so cool! I am in no way a cook. But if I had a really good kitchen, I might at least try to scramble eggs occasionally.
Hil, I don't know the Extreme Makeover show, but I might look it up. It sounds interesting.

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.
Happy Birthday, Jilli!
Ginger, how is your back feeling today? I hope you haven't stiffened up so much that you can't move.
Congratulations, Nora!

yeah, and sometimes the heights don't change for a while. The "standard" bathtub size hasn't changed since the early 1900s.

I found a cake that I want to make for Thanksgiving, but it's a bundt pan recipe. I don't have one, and won't use one enough to buy one. Any ideas on conversion?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I've seen disposable bundt pans in the supermarket before - that might be the easiest route.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Vortex, I'm surprised at what you don't have, for a foodie. But I'm more a gadget acquirer than a proper cook. I do love my bundt pan, though. It makes such pretty cakes. Can't recommend the silicon one, though. It just didn't come off slickly enough. But the teflon one is great.
Jessica's idea is much more practical than I am. I tend to buy a cake tin if I can see using it twice in a year or two. And I can always make that case.
