Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I've never made tomato jam, and I'm not sure how it would taste on a BLT. I like actual tomatoes on that sandwich. Of course, I'm the heretic that puts mayo and apple jelly on her BLTs, so take my statement with a grain of sea salt.

So I'm miffed, but I don't think I have a leg to stand on.

Aha. I have been in the same position--miffed, but more at myself for pushing the boundaries of established rules.

Replacement lunch was not tasty.

That sucks more than the tossed foodstuffs. It just compounds the aggravation.

Has anyone read You: On A Diet: The Owner's Manual for Waist Management? I'm wondering if it's worth the investment.

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

FYI, Chicagoistas:

Yeah, I just read that. I suppose as long as the buses are still running I'll go to work.

Oh, yay, winter storm warnings for Utah. And there's snow on the mountains. Looks like it's starting early. My tires are good, but the heater's sluggish. Excelsior! Onward to the storms!

Tomato jam [link] is more of a relish than a jam. That recipe looks like it would be sweeter than what I've had.

I wonder if you could make tomato jam with bacon.

I think we've gained enough posters since it ended that it's not an assumption.

True, but I reserve the right to look sternly over the top of my glasses at those who don't love Buffy or at least some part of the Whedonverse. Otherwise, it's anything goes.

I'd guess the sports lovers are actually a minority, but more vocal at this time of the year. I am only baseball. I can only smile and nod about other sports.

The winds will maintain a sustained speed of 35 to 40 mph, and may gust to 55 mph or more. They will be most severe north of Interstate 88, particularly along the Wisconsin border, Kleist said.

Great, that's where I am. At least it's due to stop raining after 9 am, which is when I go to work, so I'll miss the worst of it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I, on the other hand, am the nicest.

You're scarier when you look sternly over your glasses than I am.

I wonder if you could make tomato jam with bacon.

I make it with horseradish and use it as kind of an upscale cocktail sauce with shrimp.
