Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

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

To eat them?

Is this a trick question?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh ita, also interested in the firearms class. Need to carve out a good time in both our schedules to take it.

Okay, I got a set of "Because I Said I Would" cards, and I'm writing down one for the class. Let's try and do it inside the month, maybe?

To eat them?

Well, okay, yes.

And now I realize that this batch of pancakes is really for second breakfasts, which I didn't already have a week of in the pantry, so not quite as ridiculous as I originally thought. Just hobbity.

Totally stopping now, though.

How do you satisfactorily reheat pancakes? I always have a problem with too many, but they dry out.

And, damn, I want to be at the DMV early tomorrow, but it's also time for me to make a new batch of porridge. I could make it tonight, but then I'd miss having the one fresh bowl, which is the tastiest.

Ah, well. I'll have stupid cookies for breakfast, and maybe I can work out some way to not have many.

They aren't exactly pancakes. It's pancake batter baked in a 9x13 pan and cut into rectangles because that's loads easier than all that pouring and flipping. They seem to reheat okay. Possibly having a whole stick of butter in the batter helps with that. Possibly I am just not very particular.

Oh, welcome to my life:

Heh. I'd say you're in good company.

Yes ita, let's do it!

I've never had much luck with reheated pancakes but it turns out extra waffles can be baked and frozen and then just plopped in the toaster when you want to eat them. Makes it kinda worth the effort it takes to make them in the first place.

And speaking of breakfast food, TJs finally has cashew butter again. It's not the same texture, kinda thinner and oilier than I'd like, but I've been missing the flavor of cashew butter so I'm happy.

The status is NOT quo.

For the record, ita, you are welcome to drink sangria at our house too.
