Just spoke with KCD's wife and she offered their washer and dryer for us to use. I'll still need to hit the laundromat for the big stuff. But it is so nice for her to offer. She also offered to help wipe down stuff over the weekend. Will see if that changes after she tells KCD.
Whatever happened to the still beating heart of a virgin? No one has any standards anymore.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
It's a shame the bedbugs couldn't have drownded.
She's teaching sex? How does one teach sex?
Something to do with the pelvic floor. I dunno.
Is Crisco solid in the fridge? If not, how does that affect the texture of muffins made with all Crisco shortening? Is it a midpoint between the all butter and all canola oil I've experimented with so far? I think this is a touch too much canola, but I like the moister crumb and that it doesn't harden when refrigerated.

Crisco is shortening and solid even on the shelf. Def solid in the fridge.
I have no idea on what that does to muffin texture though.
That's a really nice offer, Suzi. And helping hands are good especially when dealing with overwhelmy stress.

Crisco is solid at room temperature, and even more solid in the fridge. I have never made a muffin with Crisco - the only things I have ever seen it used for are fried chicken (by my mother) and pie crusts (we do half butter half Crisco).

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Thanks for the sympathy, everybody. Today was day 3 or 4 of cleaning, and I saw no biters of any kind, nor any tell tale signs of bed bugs or fleas. And no new bites appeared today, but Franny's flared up all over again after almost healing. Not sure what to make of it.

Crisco is solid at room temperature: that's the point of Crisco. Well, Crisco shortening, not the oil.

Ha! I refreshed the screen just before I posted to make sure I wasn't cross posting about Crisco since I know nothing about it's baking properties.
Stressful, Burrell. I hope you can find a culprit and get rid of it. Definitely bites and not some kind of rash?

When I was young, Crisco seemed to be part of all cookie recipes. We used margarine as a spread, and Crisco in cookies

Well, it could be, but it looks more like bites. Fairly random, mostly on the torso. Either bites or a mild viral rash.

Gah. I can't believe I expressed myself so badly.
The Crisco that comes in a tub is a paste at room temperature, no? Does it have the same profile as butter? I thought room temperature butter was softer and refrigerated butter was harder.
