Funny thing about black and white. You mix it together and you get gray. And it doesn't matter how much white you try and put back in, you're never gonna get anything but gray.

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.

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

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

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

Jessica,

that is SUPER COOL.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I like the nutmeg solution. Does she not like cinnamon at all, or can you put in a hint? Maybe fresh cinnamon would make a difference (freshly grated?)

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So when cat Orville, named after the famous aviator Orville Wright, was run over by a car, his artist owner decided to turn him into a permanent piece of artwork as the ultimate tribute by transforming him into a flying helicopter.

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 - what?

If you ever do need castor sugar for something just whir some regular sugar in the blender for 15 or 20 seconds.

But then you have to clean the blender!

It's sugar! Give it a swipe with a paper towel and you're good.

Also - there were two pie cakes this weekend? I saw and intend to make the apple one. What did I miss?
