I need a real pastry bag! I usually fill my deviled eggs with a fake pastry bag aka a plastic sandwich bag with a corner cut out.
Mal: Yeah, well, just be careful. We cheated Badger out of good money to buy that frippery, and you're supposed to make me look respectable. Kaylee: Yes, sir, Captain Tightpants.

I got a pastry bag when I got overambitious for the cookie swap. Used it for the lemon sandwich cookies with the cookie butter filling and the clam-like mexican chile-chocolate stuffed with dulche du leche.
My hands whimper even thinking of them.

Mine was $5 at the grocery store, lisah. In the baking aisle with the cupcake liners and sprinkles (right next to the spices, which is what I was ostensibly there for).

I might've gotten mine at a dollar store. Ain't fancy, that's for sure.

Because books.
You can always use a gallon plastic bag and cut one corner off, too.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I've hit the point again where I need to speak to my ED about my boss. I haven't had anxiety dreams about work since the evil ED. And I dream about punching new boss lady in the face and filling her mouth with gravel. And TMJ migraines on top if that have put me at the end of my tether. I'm thinking that the only way we can work, short of firing me or her, is to strip her of her directorship and making her admin only and transferring everything else to me.

I found that to be very difficult. Might be easier if you already know what you are doing with a pastry bag?

Also, mac & cheese is in the oven. I feel quite accomplished.

That's true, -t. And it might depend on what you're squeezing, too. I just always grab them in a pinch.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
OTOH, it's warm enough to bring the avocados out of the greenhouse
Having just spent another day in the polar vortex, I'm having trouble conceiving this as being possible.
Meanwhile,on Twitter... Orlando Jones and William Shatner are throwing down over GISHWHES.
From Shatner: @TheOrlandoJones yer outta your league Orlando... Just think the Enterprise with Crane at the helm. It's too much to overcome.
