I agree with 1/.5 cake/frosting ratio! LOVE good frosting!
Jesse, prosecco is definitely day-drink worthy. Plop a couple of berries or a drop of Chambord in it. Springy!
I'm feeling pretty OK today! Pain is very manageable and mobility is good.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have no memory of that picture. Weird. I thought I knew everything...
I hate most frosting. Basically, why all that sugar? Ganache or go home.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If only.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
At home on my day off with no car. Today I'm going to can for the first time, maybe make lentil soup. Maybe mozzarella.

another librarian said that one of her neighbors just donated his house to the local firehouse so they could burn it down for training purposes (he was rebuilding anyway).
That is awesome. I wish I had an extra house so I could do that!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I like the idea of a mystery wine cavern.
I'm with ita on frosting. Although it's not so much that I don't like frosting as I am not used to it and now it tastes weird, I think - decades of avoiding it because of corn starch and the like.
My dad has done training that involved controlled burns(he was on the aux fire crew at the oil refinery and they trained with the real firemen occasionally (at a site Mythbusters have used, I believe)) and it sounded extremely cool.

I like a thin schmear of frosting. Cupcake shops which do things like hide an extra ball of buttercream inside the cupcake? Not cool. Give me the rest of my goddamn cupcake please.

I will take all of your frosting. Especially chocolate.

Fucking stealth twinkie shit.
I think. I've never had a twinkie. Is that the twinkie value proposition?
We could negotiate a ball of ganache, though.
The only icing sugar involving frosting I eat is that rock hard sugar shell that goes on top of a marzipan layer for our traditional wedding cakes and some Christmas cakes. But I also eat maybe half a forkful per slice of cakey goodness.
