Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Thanks Sail, I am definitely going to make that cake. Maybe tomorrow since I'm not going to campus.

Ugh Suzi, rotten timing. Sending lots of tooth~ma your way!

Oh, which reminds me, my kids both need orthodontic work this summer: partial braces for Isaac, head gear and then braces for Franny. In about a week, Isaac's Gollum tooth comes out. I am surprisingly sad about this. I will miss his snaggle tooth smile.

So the tooth putty doesn't work worth a damn. I have cancelled the trip and converted my one on one meetings into conference calls. I also have a dentist appt for 9am tomorrow.

I've been wanting to find a new more local dentist, but I'm going back to the one who knows me to get this fixed. I don't dislike them, just didn't want to travel that far for appointments.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh man, Suzi, what a bummer!

Yikes, Suzi, what a drag!

Also, if I didn't say it, Yay shrift!

When I called the project manager to let him know, his response was "ok, just send us a picture". Um, NO!

Aw, bummer, Suzi!

I was a little surprised and disappointed that even after the enormous amount of food I ate for lunch I still found myself in need of dinner. However, I realized that meant I could have waffles, yay! Unfortunately, even though I used a whole stick of butter in the batter, the waffles stuck to the iron and split in half so I ended up with a mound of waffle bits rather than actual waffles. Still quite tasty, though. And I have pancakes-in-jars for days (6 days to be exact), so that's good.

Ugh Suzi, sorry to hear the tooth fairies were being asshats with you.

Mmm waffles. I am going to reiterate my recommendation of making a yeasted waffle batter if you have the time. Sooo good. Also, what are pancakes-in-jars if I may ask?

I've been on Padmapper looking at SF listings so much today that I think I've descended into madness.

OK I think I answered my own question. Is pancake-in-a-jar an easy microwavable breakfast treat? If so, seems like an excellent use of extra waffle batter to me.

That is a known route, shrift. And a fast one.

Sausage patty in the bottom of a jar with 1/4 cup of pancake batter on top of it, microwave for 1-2 minutes and it is not completely unlike eating pancakes. Almost like dutch baby style but tiny? Sort of? It's my preferred way of dealing with the "how do I make one serving of pancakes at a time?" problem lately.

Some day I will get back to my beloved sourdough waffles. Yum. I have not tried yeasted otherwise.

ETA: in short, yes, what you said, Burrell!
