I may have made a tactical error and left myself with no clean towels for tomorrow. Not gonna get up and check the linen closet right now. I'll figure it out in the morning.

I don't like it either, Kat. I don't mind it in the middle of summer when there is just so much daylight shuffling it around a little doesn't matter so much, but right now it is exactly what I don't need.

Does anyone know how people find out the FICA score without paying for it

Do you have any credit cards? Capital One has a link where you can check your credit score.

I forced Dan to get a teeny credit balance Cap One card just a month ago! (Damn good thing, too, else we'd be starving right now.)

I'll ask him! (and I need to get a copy of the card for myself, too, dammit.)

Thanks, Connie!

I prefer DST for all the named reasons.

Given those foodie-depressing parameters, what should I do to get chicken soup that tastes of more than salty water with meat, noodles, and veggies?

I always start my stocks/soups/sauces by sauteeing onion in butter and olive oil. Easiest way to add depth of flavor. Classically you can go with a mirepoix which is onion, carrot and celery.

I add garlic later in the cooking (despite it being a strong flavor it is kind of delicate and dissipates quickly). I also add (depending on the soup) things like: Worcestershire sauce, sherry, wine, fish sauce (works surprisingly well even in Western dishes).

I just discovered -t has never had Cadbury mini-eggs.

I will be fixing this on Thursday, oh yes I will.

So of the commercially available stocks, which are people's favorites?

Aren't we shunning Cadbury? Didn't I read something about that? And Lindt, as well, for, um, non-fair trade, or child labor, or something?

Does anyone else watch Last week tonight with John Oliver? He does a segment called " how is this still a thing", and this week it is about DST.

Aren't we shunning Cadbury?

I'm not? Not sure if I should be, but basically not.

Are you looking to buy some stocks? I go through Sharebuilder. Their trade fees are pretty reasonable, relatively. I've been happy with Amazon, Wendy's, Wal*Mart (spit), and Micron Technology. (Look, I bought Wal*Mart stock a long time ago, before I knew they were evil, okay?) Don't buy Martha Stewart.
