They delivered a New York Times to my door this morning, instead of the Boston Globe. I'm sure somewhere, someone is writing a strongly worded letter of protest to the delivery guys.
Also, I can kill you with my brain.

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.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Planning on going to the Air and Space Museum to see the Da Vinci exhibit, which closes Tuesday. (We originally planned to go there last weekend with my folks, but you know the rest...)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Apple bread in the oven. I've got to get faster at going through these apples! Yikes.

That sounds like a great exhibit, Sheryl. Have fun!
Me, I'm taking Dad to my sister's dog show, where we will see the Diva be a star in the obedience rally ring, and then get ignored by the conformation (beauty show) judge. Plus, lots of other beautiful dogs, like German shepherds and corgis and whatnot. And fair food--I might have to buy some funnel cake, or maybe even a deep-fried twinkie...

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Ooh, both Da Vinci and dog shows sound great to me!
I have way more to do today than actual motivation. I'm interested to see how that plays out. Perhaps another cup of coffee would help...
Eta: there's always applesauce if the baking doesn't use them up fast enough.

Applesauce feels like failure to me. I wonder if a bread like this one would freeze. Maybe.

I can understand that.

Had a great birthday dinner for my dad last night (his 77th) at Dixie Cafe, where all three of us were stuffed to the gills with turkey & dressing. Then one of my cousins stopped by to visit with him afterwards, giving him candies and a new Cubs hat that unfortunately didn't fit his freakishly small head.
Also, when I stopped by with farmer's market goodies yesterday morning, for the first time since last year Mom's cat didn't flee my arrival, but stuck around to be petted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I have pie crust chilling. The sensible thing to do would be to start the filling cooking before I get in the shower, but...unh.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Applesauce feels like failure to me.
Apple Butter. Mmmmm.
