Hey, does anyone have a good lemon based dessert recipe that isn't lemon bars that they want to share? I feel like baking this weekend, and I need to use up some lemons.

My old FAC counted one of the horses as False Religion. (Guy riding around on a white horse... Just like Jesus! And Fabio.) I think it's a foolish question because they're not explicitly named anywhere. I do think Pestilence is a pretty obvious inclusion, but there's room for disagreement on others.

Reasonably crappy, bon. But glad as hell the week is over.

Wow. This writeup of Elizabeth Taylor is remarkably cantankerous. How was she not a sex symbol?

The Moosewood Cookbook has a nice lemon-poppyseed cake recipe.

Or you could roast a chicken stuffed with lemons. But that's not a dessert.

Or you could make a lemon meringue pie. Or some Pisco Sours.

I've got a lemon cupcake recipe around here somewhere.

I thought this looked pretty good: [link]

I just looked at my phone and found a voicemail from my mother asking if I want to go to some exhibit with them, in lieu of family dinner. Well, not really. Because I was planning on not leaving the house much tomorrow! Which seems like not a good reason. Ah well. I'll go, and I'll like it.

Ooh, that does look good. It may be more ambitious than I am looking for this weekend, but I will definitely save it.

Cupcakes! Poppyseeds! YUm

Dilbert writer shows he's an ass:

I realize I might take some heat for lumping women, children and the mentally handicapped in the same group. So I want to be perfectly clear. I'm not saying women are similar to either group. I'm saying that a man's best strategy for dealing with each group is disturbingly similar.

Wow.

Are you frakking kidding me?!
