Faith ,'Get It Done'
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.
I want that green polish. Want the blue too. Speaking of, I am slacking on grading tonight so I might as well do my nails.
I can't believe I'm becoming a polish convert. Who'da thunk it?
I made a pistachio cake with apples and honey.
That sounds delicious. Recipe, please?
I've always liked Cristina more than most of the other GA characters. I see the worst of myself there.
Goddamn. Youngest nephew has lost all hearing on the right side, on antiBs and next visit to an ent if it doesn't clear up. Likely cause of his delayed speech (he's had bad colds forever.) SIL very upset.
hey, Hec, guess who gave her notice yesterday and had her last day today?
Carol?
How did you guess?
She's about the only person I know who's still there. Except not anymore.
Where did she go?
Oh man. Poor T!
Cake directions: ground 1 cup of pistachios until you make a small grain meal, like coffee grounds. Combine with a cup of flour, 2 tsps of baking powder, 1/2 tsp of nutmeg, 1/2 tsp of cinnamon, 1/4 tsp of salt. In a separate bowl, cream 1 cup of sugar, 1 stick of butter, 3 eggs, 1 tsp of vanilla. Combine the wet and the dry ingredients into a batter.
Pour the batter into a greased and floured 10 inch cake pan or a 9 x 9 pan. Place halved and seed apricots or apples (and a friend from high school mentioned cherries would be yum) on the batter. Spoon honey into the centers of the fruit. Bake for 35-40 minutes at 350.
The fruit will drop into the batter due the weight and the cake will inter the fruit when it rises.
Serve with a sprinkling of powdered sugar or perhaps a honey butter glaze?
totally yum. More like a quick bread than cake. even sarameg who is sweet averse might like it.
Where did she go?
Don't know. There was drama, but I was ignoring it.
Kat, I am SO with you on the Grey's stuff, both the friendship stuff (though you wrote "Mark/Sloan" and I was like "uh, isn't he the same person?? SELF FRIENDSHIP SLASH??" before realizing it was an error and what you meant) and the relationship stuff. Which I am SO MUCH ALL OVER LIKE WHOAH.
SIL ended up crying in front of the dr & nurse. She doesn't do that. He's got fluid in both ears (they've been taking him to the dr for every.damn.cold and it isn't clearing up) and apparently can't hear out of the right. Left is iffy. She's freaking out over the dev. delays it could cause, I'm telling her that once that gets cleared up, them & the big brother will make up for that and if not? Well, at least they are poor, CHIPS will cover speech pathologists. How fucked up is that?
She's still at MY BABY freakout phase though. But I've sent her to bed, need to do the same for me. Fuck, it's late.
