I was right to set low expectations for the day. I had signed up for a Pies and Tarts class at the local CC, and just got an email that it's been cancelled. I am crushed...it was the thing I was looking forward to all month. I was getting me through work hell.
You all gonna be here when I wake up?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Aw, Sue, I'm sorry.

Obviously you need to treat yourself to some pie (or a tart, if you prefer) to deal with the disappointment.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Admittedly, that is some of the funniest early "The Office" episodes when Michael gets over heartbreak by listening to Mayer songs.
I'm on the same boat with you hating Mayer though. "Daughters" makes me want to take a hostage.

Because books.
Pies and Tarts
Oooh! Sucks that it was cancelled. For all I bake, I rarely make pie (except pumpkin). I could stand to take a Pies and Tarts class.

I have a movie tonight, but I did buy stick to try making pie pops. [link] Maybe I will do that when I get home.

FWIW, I swear by this pie crust recipe (or the Jeffrey Steingarten original): [link]

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Am very tempted to tart self up and bring pie to Sue.
So been at work an hour, have literally run between 3 building trying to get stuff done in little breaks of time. Boss gave me 2 paged of new to-dos and only now am I getting to the stuff I needed to do this morning because it is already late. Including a report to the CEO. Bad admin, no biscuit.

Aw, Jeffrey Steingarten. He's so predictably snotty and cranky. I love him.
It's raining and chilly and a perfect day to stay in bed, but Sara's home sick(ish), and I have to go to the gastroenterologist later. Good times.
I think I spelled that wrong, too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
(a) PIE POPS!! (b) the photography in that post is incredible. (c) Sorry the class got cancelled! Lame.
