Of course, what was I thinking?

Our wings are not tired.
My son stole my coffee pot (and all my booze) and took it to his new apartment while I was up north. I told him to keep it and ordered a French Press. My notion was that it would work better for tea and mate as well as coffee. We shall see. I have never used one! I'm looking forward to it.

I love my French press. I'm ridiculous about it; I'll totally use my Keurig to heat up the water and make the coffee in the French press.

This is the second thing I've read on from one of our group today that made me want to have coffee. I can't, it causes a lot of pain, or rather, I have to want it enough to be willing to spend the next day on the couch drinking water and resting and heating pads or TENS. The thing about coffee is that mouth feel. It's smooth on the tongue, like ice cream, but bitter on the sides of the tongue, and the smell is mmmm heavenly, and then it's hot and warming and leaves a taste behind in the mouth. Mmm ::lights a cigarette::

Strangely enough, I had a yellow Laffy Taffy today, courtesy of a passenger who gave away leftover Halloween candy in lieu of tips. It was better than I remembered, although that may have been that it wasn't at all stale.

Netflix has an original show called the Big Family Cooking Show, with families competing against each other. One of the presenters is Nadiya who won one of the GBBOs.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
High temps were in the 70s today. They're supposed to be in the 50s tomorrow, then back up to the 70s on Sunday. Weird.

Nadiya is talking about how one of the cooks knows when a cake is done. The cook says "I don't have a timer, I have a smell." "You know when it's done," Nadiya said, "what do I know?" And the entire group of cooks burst into laughter.
Instead of the full headscarf around the head and neck she wore on GBBO, she's wearing a scarf that holds her hair up and covered. She looks very elegant.

mac - Can I go hang at the mall with some friends?
me - what friends?
mac - a kid from tennis and M
me - who is this other kid from tennis? and M's parents are letting him go?
mac - Other kid is R and yeah R was going to pick me up and then we'll go get M.
me - um no, 2 of you can't be in the car with a driver your age and I do not believe you that M's parents are ok with that. I'll tell you what, we can go pick up M and me this friend R that I don't know at the mall.
mac - huffs off.
uh huh, nice try slick. I'm not sure what was really going on, but it wasn't what he was telling me. I was so much better at lying than he is.
