Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Pretty nail color, Dana!

Gah, shrift, I hope you were feeling better before tackling all of that. You do more while feverish than I do at 100%.

Today I purchased the same eyeliner as Dana, except in Zero (black), and Clinique's Black Honey lip gloss in two different forms - Superbalm Moisturizing Gloss and Almost Lipstick. They advertised it as a universal color and I really like it so far.

It was thought to have been filmed in 1905, but the guy who runs the silent theater in Niles did a ton of research and found it was filmed one week before the 1906 earthquake and put on a train the night before.

That was amazing.

Suzi, what'd you make? (Also, you might want to have the migraine meds handy since we're expecting a temp drop tomorrow.)

I couldn't decide what to eat after researching Seattle and Vancouver restaurants all afternoon. Basically, I want everything - NOW. So DH made an executive decision and just left to pick up some Boston Market chicken for dinner.

I love Clinique's Almost Lipsticks. I used to always buy Almost Blush and another color that I can't remember. But they don't make it anymore.

So my cookie fail is just sad, but my dinner more than makes up for it. I made baked gnocchi and cheese, like mac and cheese but gnocchi instead of macaroni. ohmygod good.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Nicole, chopped the chilies, browned some ground turkey with onions, added cheese, eggs, flour and milk to make a casserole. The recipe I was kinda looking at called it a Chili Relleno casserole - which no, it isn't. I messed with the ingredients and portions enough to easily ignore that title.

Just pulled it out of the oven and it smell YUM. I'm being a loser and waiting for the end of the inning before serving some up. Ahhh...now it is time.

::I will not turn my nose up at fetched Boston Market and beg to be taken to Suzi or Kat's house::

But I so want to.

Oh Kat, that sounds delicious.

I had gnocchi for supper too. With a really basic sauce I made from my homw grown tomatoes. It was pretty yum.

I also made a pretty good curried squash soup from squash also from my garden.

Now I need to do something with a lot of unripe tomatoes. I guess I can make my mom a metric tonne of green tomato chow.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

OOH, thanks for the heads up. That sounds amazing.
