Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am excited to have my cousin's sweet potato (no marshmallow) biscuits tomorrow! I assume she's making them...

Although this made me laugh:

I think that as home cooks, it’s our tendency to want to do anything and everything that can be from scratch as such

She means her community of home cooks, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Face it, Jesse, you're not a home cook. You're a faux cook.

I would be Semi-Homemade if only I were more committed to tablescapes! And barfing.

OMG, the developers are trashing PHP. They're saying it's not a real language, and that if I can code in PHP, then surely I can learn a real programming language.

ALL OF THEM. They're Microsoft bots. I'm having an argument with a developer I don't usually talk to, espousing what I see as the high points of open source options in general and PHP in specific, and I can hear laughter from over the cubicle walls.

I think we need a Thunderdome.

if only I were more committed to tablescapes! And barfing.

Okay, you know, you're odd.

You are apparently not familiar enough with the Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade oeuvre.

hip deep in pie

We're having early snowpocalypse. Except, it's now ice pellets. Don't wanna shovel!

Is it okay if I'm proud of that? I want to be proud of that.

Yikes, Sue. I am super happy to never have to shovel.

Yes, ita !, you should be proud of that.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Jesse,

your Sandra Lee shout-out scared me.

But I laughed at the same place you did regarding doing everything from scratch. I have never made stuffing from scratch (making my own bread, making my own sausage) and I ain't starting tomorrow.

Half of the time, we are lucky that I am picking up a pan to cook dinner, much less that everything is made from scratch.

Sandra Lee though? That Kwanzaa cake?

Gotta love the Kwanzaa Kake.
