Damn, my pie crust is possibly the ugliest ever. Note to self: vegan pastry does not freeze well.
Note to Consuela's self: It's not how it looks, it's how it tastes

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well, we won't find that out for some time. But at least the filling will be tasty.
I just ventured outside to the new convenience store around the corner. There had been an old convenience store there, but then it was held up several times and the owners closed it. Some recent graduates bought it and redid the inside and reopened it, and it's really great. They've got a bunch of stuff like canned beans and fresh vegetables (well, peppers) that none of the other stores around here have, and the guys running it are just so adorable and enthusiastic. Also, this week, they have a kosher for Passover shelf.
Still in line. The kids have struck up conversations with kindred souls and despite my lack of costuming, I've received several compliments on my sweatshirt. (It's the "Careful or you'll end up in my novel," shirt.)
Oh sweet zombie Jesus, the woman behind us is utterly inane. People in line have been doing a call and response with "Marco Polo!" and she asked, "Who's Marco Polo?" and she's at least my age. Oy.
Hee so much fun, Barb.
I had a brief interlude where I picked up some irritating malware on my netbook, but I was saved by System Restore, which I've never used before.
Consuela, I also had a dramatic drop in cholesterol after adding oatmeal and cinnamon to my diet. Also, tasty.
I have made pie crusts today too. One seems too wet, the other too crumbly. I am expecting too much, but I am hoping they will roll out like a dream like the pie crust I made here at Xmas. (I am at my parents' house.)
Also, My parents, after living in this house for 39 years, have put a shower head adapter into their old fashioned bathtub. It was so great, and their tub is so flat to stand in. Why didn't they do this 39 years ago? I had many years of washing my hair craning to get my head under a tap. And quick baths in an inch of water.
You people who eat oatmeal, do you do something to add protein? All-carb breakfasts leave me hungry again an hour later.
