I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

I was grating fresh nutmeg into egg nog, dropped the nutmeg into the nog.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I just saw an M&M ad where the candies are caught in a hostage situation. It seems like that campaign could have been put on hold for a week or three.

Yeah, I caught a glimpse of that ad the other day, and even without the current events, it just doesn't seem like something to make light of.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Calli, do all that and then throw it in the oven for 20 minutes with some shredded cheese on top.

I'm so glad I live in a hub city where I go direct pretty much everywhere.

I'll have to try that, Brenda.

Weather widget tells me it is 16 in my hood.

I went to market anyway. Will need to warm my freshly made grilled sandwich, though. And I carried it home in an insulated bag!

Pitstopping at the Brookline Library. I had a Houston Astro in my car earlier, nice guy, staying with his extended family in Quincy. Uber can be unexpectedly unexpected, which is cool adventure for sure.

I'm a convert to the evaporated milk + eggs method of mac & cheese, no roux necessary. Not that roux is difficult, but keeping cans of evaporated milk around is more reliable than having enough regular milk in the fridge at any given time.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Nifty, Theo.

I am intrigued by Beverly's mother's version of mac & cheese. Withe some minor tweaks that might fit my current lifestyle better than the traditional. ETA: Hm, also Jessica's.

Alton Brown's recipe is a pretty good start:

(And if you like your mac & cheese baked, just make this one, top with buttered bread crumbs and more cheese, and stick it under the broiler for a few minutes.)
