Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Do I actually need caster sugar?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I am so excited about Dylan's Halloween costume!! He decided he wanted to be The Atom, which meant it had to be DIY or very very expensive, so I asked my knows-how-to-sew-and-stuff neighbor to help out, and this was the result. (She also made a little gold atom symbol iron-on patch for the forehead once the cowl arrives - I ordered a blue lycra ski mask from Amazon, and a pair of red lycra opera gloves.)

No. I actually think the eggs get fluffier with regular sugar, if you're beating it by hand. (Which I do because I don't have a dishwasher)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I posted that one here, and I have one in the oven RIGHT NOW.

Ooooh, that looks good. I wonder how I can adapt it for M, who Does Not Like cinnamon. Allspice, perhaps?

Jessica, I love Dylan's costume! That's awesome.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Great costume, Jessica!

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Epic thanks for the offer but I got in at 1130 last night and am leaving after work!

Aww, phooey! Well, hope you've at least been able to enjoy the sun a little while here.

Allspice could work, or maybe nutmeg? Or add a little lemon zest and go for more of a coffee-cake flavor than apple-pie.
