I made a coffee cake to bring into work tomorrow. My genius thought was putting tin foil in the pan before baking, so it's easy to take out!
Natter 73: Chuck Norris only wishes he could Natter
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Smart!
All I want to do today is curl up on the couch, crochet, and watch TV. I have not worked out how I can justify that as a responsible choice. Dishes that need washing and clothes that need laundering are arguing against pretty strenuously.
In any case, have heritage pork shoulder in Rick Bayliss's carnitas sauce in the oven, and it smells really good.
So I'm watching Shark Tank and it's totally stressing me out about work! BAH. What happened on Friday is, a deal I've been working on for basically 10 months (since I started) essentially fell apart. They say it's just on hold, but the stuff they are concerned about isn't going to change anytime soon. And I think higher-ups at my job are inclined to make the situation worse, because they totally misread it and have an inflated sense of our importance. Ugh! Totally not my fault, totally won't rebound on me in any way, but really disappointing and shitty.
That's rough.
The carnitas came out delicious. I don't know what kind of pigs this heritage pork comes from, but they are tasty.
I was gonna say watching football is stressing me out, as it often does, but it just got a lot better.
Uh, not so much, now.
I knew it even as I said it I was speaking too soon, but I really was more relaxed for a little while there.
Oh, yeah, it was very soothing for a while. Now? Now there is yelling.
Yup.
I haven't woken the dog, though, so I'm showing some restraint...
The good news is that both Carolina and Atlanta are getting clobbered.
