Because books.

I feel safer walking away from a crock pot for hours, but not from a vat on a stove burner.

Yeah, there's no way I could walk away from a pot on the stove. No illogical! At least not to me.

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

Why am I watching Maid In Manhattan? Why can't I stop?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

People don't make actual "pound" cake anymore do they?

Don't they? I have no idea. Why not?

I do walk away from vats on burners, but I feel bad about it. And I wouldn't, say, leave one cooking all day while I was at work. Slowcookers have built in safety features, it's not illogical to think they are safer.

Don't they? I have no idea. Why not?

Because 1 pound of butter, sugar, flour, and eggs makes a huge-ass cake?

Well, that's why I don't make them that big, but surely people make them for the whole family or parties? Or maybe I am underestimating the huge-assedness.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore

Any DCistas around? I'm going to DC Big Flea tomorrow, and would love an antiquing buddy.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

P-C, thank you! She's been looking for a while, but with the lay off...

I really appreciate it.

NOM, I just had pizza. NOM.

TOM! Awesome; that is such a huge accomplishment.

I think I was going to say something else, but I have forgotten. It's Friday. Oh, well.

Words with friends is asking me for a password. I'm pretty sure I don't have a password. Why are things different?

Should I play words with friends? Is it a FB thing?
