I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Any have a bit I can borrow for an hour or so?

You can borrow mine, but I think it's broken.

Cake balls look delicious. There's frosting under the hard coating? I need to get some cake balls.

I used up all mine this morning, Burrell, sorry. Which is probably not good as I am just now heading in to work. Huh.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Yep!

The same friend who made these for me, last year for our Ginger haired friend Lawyer Bob made him ginger balls for his b-day.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh Kat, that's a pisser.

I want a cake ball! TJs has these weird pancake balls that claim to be Swedish. They are kinda tasty, light and lemony. But I have no idea how you'd make them in a pan.

Thanks tommyrot. I have a little duct tape here.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I looked it up because Frankenbudda (I think?) used it yesterday and then you used it

I used it today on my comment about the new Zodiac. I've noticed its use here, but I think I picked it up from Nora (both here and IRL).

and I was like, "What's up with all of the shenanigan use!"

So you're calling shenanigans on "shenanigans"?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Pancake ball pan

Of course that's the answer! Hee.

My old coworker used to make these red velvet bon bons which were red velvet cake crumbs, mixed with the frosting, rolled into balls, and covered in chocolate. OMG yum.

I think this afternoon I'm going to need to break into the brownies my coworker has been hoarding. (Seriously -- who gets a departmental gift and keeps it in their out-of-the-way office? Neurotic coworker, that's who!)

unfortunately I'd been too wrapped up with new baby stuff to even realize there was anything that serious going on there! So now I'm catching up on the news and feeling retroactively incredibly relieved that they were able to get everyone out before the coup/state of emergency.

Wow. I didn't realize anything was happening there either. That has been one of our go-to Francophone countries since it has been so stable.
