You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

sara, I do almost the same thing with my cukes (when I don't mix them with yogurt, dill, mint, garlic, green onions, and golden raisins). Sometimes I'll add some of TJ's sweet and sour sauce to add a bit of a kick. I've got both mixtures in my fridge right now. NOM!

This evening I stopped by K-Bug's work and dropped off some sushi for her dinner. Then I hit up PetSmart for some cat things. I bought a pair of nail clippers and I need to return them tomorrow. Poor Noodle was my first victim and those things just mashed the nail. They weren't sharp at all. Grrrrrrr.

Also colored my hair all by myself. My roots had gotten horrible and I just couldn't stand it anymore. I think it looks ok.

Sorry, msbelle. Glad you at least got to see some and get to revisit old stomping grounds.

Suzi, I just use people clippers on all my cats.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Ice cream with the Flea Family was excellent. Casper and Dillo are both smart and adorable. If they harness that power, they could take over the world.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh, that's a shame, msbelle.

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

Oo Steph, I'm jealous. I want to have ice cream with the Flea Family one day, in no small part for the amusement value of watching our two girls play together.

I can vouch for hanging with the Flea Fam as a fully enjoyable activity. Emmett and I had a good time seeing them in Athens.

Okay, if I prefer a less sweet pickle, should I just change the ratio of sugar to vinegar? Say half and half instead of 2 parts sugar, 1 part vinegar?


sarameg - Sep 03, 2011 5:51:33 pm PDT #24017 of 30001

Sure. I imagine you could forego the sugar entirely if you wanted. They aren't candy sweet even with the preposterous ratio. I'd say the are much less sweet than your average gherkin. Vinegar and fridge is what lets them keep.

Because books.

Oh, msbelle, suck. I'm sorry.

After I'm done with the stripper.

No one said "hubba hubba" here? I'm a little disappointed in us.

No one makes decent horror anymore. Insidious was absolutely stupid.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Olivia cried at the end of PotC: At World's End when Elizabeth and Will said good-bye. She tearfully said, "I'm crying over nothing!" I asked her if she was sad Will was leaving.

Her crying made me cry, dammit!
