'Bushwhacked'
Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.
Good -- I've got some strawberry minicheesecakes, chocolate mousse cake and better than sex cake.
Get eatin' so I don't eat it all!
I'm having a "throw all the leftovers into a bowl" meal, and it's actually pretty good. I've got a whole grain rice blend, steamed cauliflower, grilled tempeh, and a peanut lime sauce.
Okay, that reminds me -- we went to a new restaurant for dinner last night (thank you, Groupon) that bills itself as "Asian Fusion Cuisine", and Tim ordered what is basically a rice bowl with veggies, but in a hot stone bowl, called bibimbap. The bowl keeps cooking the food long after it's served, and it makes the rice all crunchy. I had never heard of that before, but it was pretty good.
(I got sushi. Go on, act surprised.)
Now shopping for a sleeve
Waterfield Designs makes some very nice sleeves for the 11" Air.
that also sounds really good. i might be getting hungry.
I am trying to (slowly) get rid of the horrible,circa 1982 muddy rose with ugly flowers wallpaper in my upstairs hall.
I ran across my mini clothes steamer in the closet and thought "Hmmm." And what do you know, it works really well!
I may have an unfug hallway by summer!
my dad swears by a bucket of hot water and a scrubby sponge. He started trying to de-wallpaper my house with fancy schmancy solvent from my contractor uncle and quickly gave it up in favor of hot water and a scraper. It was pretty messy, tho, i imagine a steamer wouldn't leave as many puddles on the floor.
The steamer is working pretty well, but I will have to go get a putty knife.
My questions is this: the paper underneath the horrid paper is gorgeous blue paisley. Now, I'm taking the old paper off and the old paper is revealing itself nicely; there's some faded areas, but I quite love the design and colors and I think the faded bits simply add a nice kind of farmhouse-in-Provence touch.
But after I get all this horrid paper off, then wipe down the walls with solution to get rid of all the bits and pieces...I would like to coat the wallpaper I'm revealing, to protect it and to give it a bit of a sheen. Do they make a matte-ish clear gloss for walls? Or shoudl i just ModPodge the whole wall? ;)
It's going to be cheaper to get water-based satin polyurethane such as Minwax Polycrylic [link]
Perfect, Ginger! A couple of quarts should do the whole upstairs.
Exactly what I was thinking of.
