Timelies all!
Quiet weekend coming up here. We'll try to go to the movies tomorrow night.
Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs
My body decided to start the year off with a head cold. I question its decision-making skills.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I told my mother I'd make a batch of cupcakes for her party on Saturday, but just realized I don't have buttermilk or vanilla. So maybe tomorrow. Today I chopped a lot of vegetables, made tortellini skewers, and a torta. Tomorrow I think it's a lot of sandwiches and I forget what else.

Oh, just remembered about the way to fake buttermilk. I'm sure my mother has vanilla. I guess it could be cupcakes tonight.

You can fake buttermilk with one cup of whole milk and one tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice. (actually, best way is to put the vinegar in the measuring cup, then add the milk to one cup)
Forgot to add - let it sit for at least five minutes. It's better if the milk is room temp.

That's what I remembered! Still not baking....

Our wings are not tired.
I was alone at the office today so I moved a bunch of furniture around and cleaned and organized. Now I am sore all over. Other than the lack of coworkers it seemed like a Monday, except with bonus weekend follow-up. Woo!

I am making lemon tarts for a baby shower tomorrow. I am using mini tart pans for the first time, and the tart shells are rather...irregular in shape. I don't know if perfectionist me is going to demand a redo of them, but that will wait until tomorrow. As it is, I still don't have a gift for the shower.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
(please note, I am totally okay. Really and truly.)
I was supposed to go to work today, but this happened instead [link]
I am the person standing next to the cop, and not the person whose car is in the building.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I'm still amused that my reaction was "I don't know what your hair color is these days!" (I like it, BTW.)
