Molasses provides a lot of calories for little volume. I could do corn syrup too, I bet. Or, if she's not lactose intolerant, than heavy cream.

And doesn't molasses have some sneaky nutrients?

Yes! Especially iron. [link]

There we go. YAY Molasses! Not only is it good for you but rum too? Or is there no molasses rum connection?

wow, yuck day all around - sorry for everyone.

mac is just NOT HAVING it. He is holed up in his room playing the DS. He knows this means no DS tomorrow, but as I am not willing to physically fight him, he gets to play now. At some point he will fall asleep and I need to have emotionally psyched myself up by then to be the parent who sneaks in and takes toys, again.

I am kinda in this no emotion space because I really do not have the emotionally whatever to have or deal with a blow-up. I just talked with my parents and I think they hear depression in my voice. I am sure there is some of that, but I think this is more survival mode for me. I am convinced the whole month will be like this, so I need to reserve every type of strength.

anyhoo - since he is hiding in his room, I had pie for my snack. Now I should think about dinner. Maybe biscuits.

I'm sure rum is good for you.

Maybe not so much for Grace.

My excitement for the day, after a long day of driving with family (and eating fried food, yay), was seeing the outside of my office from the highway for the first time. People are always talking about it, and all I could do is smile and nod. So now I know!

whoot! just got rid of some juice glasses and canning jars. no money, but stuff gone gone gone.

Kay, I can't even begin to imagine the stress and complications.

msbelle, yay for more stuff gone!

Frankie is STILL zonked from the dog park! I love it! I'm watching Prisoner of Azkaban of ABC fam.

I skimmed. I'm back in Colorado and still tuckered from the long drive. So much happened in the two days I was offline. My heart is with all of you. I wish I had Meara'ed as I went along. ~ma.
