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....

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.

(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.

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

Hee! Plei also asked if that was me, because she liked the color.

I am glad you are ok

holy crap, Lee. glad you're all right! may your tomorrow be somewhat less interesting.

Lee, when I first read about that earlier today, I thought you meant the other driver had gotten out of the car and run into a building, and I was like "Well, that's just silly, won't they find him?". Then I realized what you meant.

Tartlets...tartlets...the word has lost all meaning...

Went dancing. Am v sore, but it was great--super crowded with old and new folks!
