Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

On a written homework assignment, I asked, "Show how to find f'(x) using the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and highlight where and why the chain rule was applied." One kid used a highlighter.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Gravy is supposed to be homemade!

I wasn't going to say it (because different strokes for different folks), but yes.

Meatloaf--yummmm. I'm pretty flexible with what kind I like, since as long as it isn't funky tasting or dried out, I'll like it. When I make it myself, it's the basic recipe someone mentioned upthread: ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, worchestshire sauce, chopped onions, and spices, with ketchup and possibly some bacon on top. I do like Boston Market's meatloaf, and their tomato sauce to go with it is very good (a bit thinner than ketchup, but with chopped veggies).

I really enjoyed that bowl thing. But it totally gets an F- for presentation. Don't tell Bourdain on me.(having a Chili's in my neighborhood that I patronize already puts me in "Because it's wrong," territory with him.)

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

Very, very wrong: a combination of Jello and Cool Whip.

Dude, that was always my favorite! I love cafeteria food. Seriously, not being ironic. Although I don't generally like meatloaf that I don't make myself (Kat's does sound delicious. Mmm, blue cheese...) - it's gotta taste like mom's, which was from I Hate to Cook (that was to my family what Joy of Cooking was to many others).

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

It was on sale Erin. What was she supposed to do?

Oh, you've met my mother!

Don't HATE!!! We make a ham, not turkey, for holidays. I tart up the gravy, and everything else but the crescent rolls (mmmm, crescent rolls) is homemade!

I am NOT ASHAMED!! I devote my precious prep time to the ham WHICH IS EFFING DELISH and peeling 10 freaking pounds of potatoes.

And cleaning the ENTIRE HOUSE, including lemon oiling the parquet in the entry way after washing on my hands and knees.

I am a Gravy Compromiser!
