My stinky boy just refused a bath, too, msbelle. I may be able to coax him in after movie.
I want an ice cream maker.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

We have a cuisinart ice cream maker, but have never used it.

I can eat approximately 2 bites of ice cream without severe intestinal distress, so y'all can't taunt me at all!
Scraping at the banister, I think the dark layer is a dark varnish, but not stain, and it is the bottom layer. This is excellent news. Means when I strip, I'll probably get down to minimally paintstained wood, so I can go about staining the rail and main posts, and stick with white for the wickets or whatever they are called. I'll go with a dark honey that matches the inlay (and blinds from IKEA!) [link] [link]
This is what I have to strip: [link] Main posts at top and bottom will be a challenge with all those edges. Luckily, I like picking at things.

I want to try a frozen lemon custard recipe. I used to get frozen lemon custard with my dad at a local ice cream shop and it closed years ago. I can never find it anymore.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Nora, have y'all been to Brocato's yet for lemon ice?

I have been very happy with this ice cream book: [link]
For a couple of summers I was making a small batch or two every few weeks, after a while you can just experiment without following a strict recipe. I made some yum carrot and honey ice cream and I think I made several versions of cinnamon.

Oh, whoops, I think Sox mentioned sorbet in Spike's and I thought she was continuing the theme. Thanks!!

My mom got this thing that makes a bowl of ice cream at a time (you freeze the bowls) which is just about right for the amount of it she wants to make. It came with 2 bowls.

just bought new Lithium batteries for the Smoke/CO detectors and one is beeping. It is the replace unit beep. I got these less than 2 years ago. Guess I'll be sending that back to the manufacturer for a replacement. Like I need this ankle-biting crap this week.

Be sure to give them the new return address or have postal forwarding set up if using USPS.
Gah, went out to water the plants. Broke a sweat, and it wasn't from exertion.
