Jayne (Husband): Oh, I think you might wanna reconsider that last part. See, I married me a powerful ugly creature. Mal (Wife): How can you say that? How can you shame me in front of new people? Jayne (Husband): If I could make you purtier, I would. Mal (Wife): You are not the man I met a year ago.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am still in pajamas! I did put additional inside pants and fleece over them, so I look sort of dressed, but still.

Also, I now realize why I haven't really cooked anything in two months -- I have not had a full day of sitting around the house in that time! Now I'm thinking about some kind of cheesecake, because I inherited a box of ginger cookies that aren't getting any newer, and I think they would make a good crumb crust.

That sounds awesome! As does the chicken pot pie.

Now I'm reconsidering my whole dinner strategy.

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

Many happy returns, shrift!

Everyone's meals (actual and theoretical) sound amazing to me. Maybe I should eat lunch.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yeah, the crux of this conversation for me is that I'm hungry.

I am still in pajamas. In theory this is because I'm going to work out, but we all know that I just like sitting in front of the fire in pajamas.

Hey, you are me! Are you also watching S1 Arrow DVDs while sorting out paperwork nonsense?

Okay, that was delicious. And it was only my second ever savory pie. Now, apple turnover made with the pastry scraps for dessert.

Art Crawl!!!

Happy Birthday, Shrift!

sara - your ability to climb the roofs amazes me. . . I have a huge fear of heights.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yes I am! Oh, wait, no I'm not, just the paperwork part. Your you is having more fun than my you.

Okay the apple tartlet was so good. And I say that as someone who has made about a half dozen apple pies in the last month. The brown sugar and butter caramelized perfectly. This is turning into an excellent snow day.
