Maria, make sure you leave the house sometimes. If you can take it, go to a Starbucks or a Panera and work for a while. The isolation is the one thing I hate about working from home again.

Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
unless anyone can suggest where I'd find a microwave in public...
7-11?
In me-news, it is entirely time for wine, but I have to decide between white (because it's summer) and red (because I still have some truffles that go with a specific red wine - bought 'em back in June so probably they should be eaten up soon).
it sounds good to me, Lee.
I would have thought it goes without saying that salted caramel is fucking delicious, but I guess I thought wrong.
I like salted chocolate more than caramel. I'm just kinda meh on caramel, which is surprising because caramelization makes vegetables and roasts and what-have-you delicious, so you would think straight up caramel would be even more delicious, but not to me.
I don't really know what snickerdoodles are, though.
t /cookie ignorant
Snickerdoodles are awesome. Cinnamon sugar, and nicely chewy if they're made right.
I don't love caramel, either, but I do like salted chocolate. Even as a kid, I loved trail mix when the pretzel stick salt would rub off on the M&Ms.
Needless to say, the isolation is why I work at home.
I don't know if my boss knows what a critical path is, or how to efficient crash a project. On one hand, that should make me happy. On the other hand--oh, more work for me to make more work for me.
Caramel and chocolate are my OTP. Like, Rolos? HEAVEN.
Salted caramel is pretty damn good, too. TJs has a chocolate bar that's dark chocolate and salted caramel (and maybe toasted coconut), and it's one of the only acceptable forms of dark chocolate I'll eat.
I was talking today with my student about Robin Thicke, and mentioned that I was surprised that he was roughly my age. She responded with "yeah, he's really old!" He is younger than I am by about 4 years

I don't like mixing sweet and salty tastes, except for a few Thai dishes and maybe the glaze on baked ham.
Random chance worked to my advantage tonight, as I bought a Ramadan special at the local Indian restaurant and all but one piece of naan spilled out on the floor before I could decide what to do with it when I got home. Temptation eliminated!
