Mr Peabody would be a better candidate for the school board. He couldn't make things much worse.
Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Good grief, Ginger. Can you just write-in Mr. Peabody? Sounds like that would be as good a choice as either of those.
eta: ha! I'm not the only one who thought it.

Yeah, our choices are not good either. That is why ranked choice voting of various kinds is needed.

Food: I baked halva chocolate-chips cookies to bring to the office tomorrow (my birthday's on Wednesday and Thursday [according to my two-calendars system] and I won't be in the offices), instead on studying. I'm a good co-worker. I'm also one step from making this recipe entirely vegan (just need a good egg replacement for this. And egg replacements are harder to find here).
In addition, discovered the magic of adding cashew to salads last week, and never looked back since.
(Edit: you know those tiny parts of posts or conversations that you sometimes leave behind because you're a bit all over the place - those parts that would actually help others to understand your intentions better? I seem to forget them about 80% of the time).

Don't remember the details, but believe you can make a good egg replacement from apricots. Are apricots hard to find in Israel?

Depends on the season. And it's their season now, but I don't think this will work well with the recipe (which originally was based on tons of butter, sugar and halva). I'm thinking maybe bananas would work, but it's not the season.

I was told by one vegan that you don't necessarily need to replace the egg in some baked goods, but I have no idea how one figures out when an egg replacement is or is not needed.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Some recipes, the egg is really just there for moisture, and there are tons of things you can replace it with -- soy yogurt, apple sauce, apple sauce plus oil, almost any kind of dried fruit pureed with a little water, a ton of other stuff. If there's just one egg in a big recipe, you can sometimes just leave it out and the recipe is fine. For something like a cake that's supposed to rise, it's more complicated.
