Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Oh yeah, my mom always made those at Christmas! I just remembered. She called the device a "cookie press."

I have a cookie press. I bought it and then used it once, and it's been sitting on the top shelf of my cupboard ever since.

Congratulations, Zen!

I went for drinks with a coworker tonight and learned that she's planning to leave the org. in a couple of months, probably, which does improve my chances of getting hired permanently...

And now to bed.

I do notice that the Brits seem to (noticeably in the baking show, but I've seen others) all about passion fruit, which is something I feel you never see in the US.

The best dessert I ever had was passion fruit mousse in chocolate cups with a sprig of mint on top. Alas, my own attempt to make passion fruit mousse belonged in the horrible cooking disaster category.

Hey. New board.

Cookie presses are really for cheese straws.

Because books.

My mom makes cookie press cookies every Christmas, but she uses the butter pretzel recipe instead of the spritz, and they are little tree-shaped bites of buttery heaven.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I will give my boss credit for something: I sent out a piece of work yesterday that I don't really feel good about. If she had seen a draft, she probably would have agreed and helped me work to make it better. Since she only saw it after it was done, she said it was good. So that's nice!

The Yahoo bookmarks on my new computer such large balls. What do people use in their browsers to manage bookmarks? I'd like something that I can click on to just see a list of them without having to go to a website and search through them.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Congratulations, Zen!

ION, my boss is listening to the Netanyahu speech to Congress. What sort of angry punk music shall I listen to so I don't have to hear him?
