Yay Costco with booze!
Dinner is pretty tasty! But it came out mostly cornbread with a little bit of greens on the bottom. Oh well, we'll see if it gets me through a workday. Still, it's kind of a miracle it came out at all considering I used creole cream cheese and milk instead of buttermilk, and all purpose flour instead of baking powder.

That is a perfectly cromulent substitution!
Also, how awesome on a scale of 1 to 10 is it that I will hopefully be hanging out with Vortex when I go see my parents in a couple weeks? TWENTY BILLION.
Ooh, we should do something on Mardi Gras!
For my grammar loversOoh, we should do something on Mardi Gras!
YES. And make drunken calls to smonster!
I can tell you, she will be passed out by 2pm.
I was excited about doing mine, but then I realized I have four W-2s and have to file in two states, and now I'm kind of dreading it.
Oooh, yeah, that sucks. Roomie just came home and I was discussing that sort of thing with her, since she moved here from DC. I think you beat me, though, because the one year I had to file in three districts (DC, Indiana, and Maryland) I only had two W-2s. It was still a PITA I don't wish on anyone, so good luck. Ick. Hope you get a nice refund? I got a nice one....but not as nice as last year when I got the homebuyer tax credit. And now I feel like I should put most/some of it into my mortgage. Sigh. Responsibility sucks.
Awww, Nora and Vortex on Mardi Gras! Tear that shit UP.

HEY. No wait, you're probably right.
I have no idea where to even start with filing taxes for two states. Blecch. I usually do the 1040EZ online.
I talked to Mom tonight, my brother's sick. E isn't sick but kept wanting to play with my brother so Mom got off the phone so she could corral E to bed.
We were talking about cooking and she started telling me about this soup she made the other day -- it's the same soup I'm hoping to make. It's from the Clean Eating magazine (which I got her for Christmas) and she said it was good. It's Chicken with Kale, Sweet Potatoes, and Mushrooms. It's pretty easy - bring stock to a boil, reduce heat, add diced potatoes, simmer, add kale and mushrooms, simmer, add sliced chicken, simmer. I figure I can do that even if I'm sick. Only it doesn't have garlic, so I may add some.
Can you search for your state income tax and see if they have any information ?
I did some searching and discovered that since I qualify for free federal tax filing I'll qualify for free state tax filing through Turbo Tax.
Sigh. Money is stressing me out a lot right now.
I can tell you, she will be passed out by 2pm.
Hmm. Guess we better start early then.
