It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
This batter was crepe-style thin; it completely spread unappealingly in the pan. If I had a current guess it would be using skim milk to make mock buttermilk instead of regular.

I prefer Joy of Cooking's sour milk pancakes (buttermilk to us moderns) for nice thick fluffy ones.
JoC has a recipe for cornmeal pancakes that I just love, and I make it whenever I have to cook for lots of people (which is generally no more than once a year). They have a lovely crunchy texture to them.
I had an 11AM appointment for a Skype chat, and I was sitting on my computer wondering why nobody was signed in yet, and then I rechecked the email and discovered it was for 2PM Central time. D'oh! So that gave me time to change my sheets and mop the kitchen floor. Woot for productivity?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Fuckity. My cable tv picture is fucking up minutes before the Bears/Packers game. Any other Chicagoistas having problems with Comcast?

I don't know who to root for. I grew up on the Eastern edge of Iowa where the Chicago teams were the ones to root for, but I went to school in Madison and am very fond of Wisconsin.
What's a Midwesten girl supposed to do?
tommy, Green Bay just scored a touchdown.

Once the game started, my picture went all to hell (and I missed the first play) but it's been OK since....

Fingers crossed that it stays that way, tommy!
