Well some friends of Buffy played a funny joke and they took her stuff and now she wants us to help get it back from her friends who sleep all day and have no tans.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Is this the thing were there are two manufacturers of Girl Scout Cookies? Regardless, I also sold Peanut Butter Patties, not Tagalongs.

Yes. I'm still upset I can only get Caramel Delights and not proper Samoas.

Aquafaba! I made it on a whim because I was making something else with a can of chickpeas, so it was saltier than might be ideal (you would want to get the low-salt kind), but it is seriously magic. I just drained the can into a bowl, and it whipped right up into stiff peaks! Once I folded the chocolate in, it was a little looser than I might like, but then I froze it, and that is also great! Next time I'm going to make straight meringues with it.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Ooh, I forgot all about that, nice! I need to play with that.

I love, btw, the Chantilly Chocolate or whatever it's called, that's just dark chocolate and hot water. Just get the proportions right and whip into mousse, it's magical.

Ooh, what??

I feel that there is no rational reason to be choosing between desserts: cookies with cake and ice cream. And pie - for the fruit -it's healthy.

ETA: Connie - ever since you made that comment about Thor and his goat-driven chariot I have been imagining Chris Hemsworth's Thor in a tiny (goat-cart sized) chariot and now I really want to see this.

Because books.

As much as I love cake, cookies are usually easier because they're portable/handheld. But cake is next, and I will happily take all your buttercream. Pie is really a distant third for me, unless it's pecan or pumpkin or a really fresh-baked apple.

A good apple pie is the best. Especially with a little caramel in there.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

With tomorrow being my birthday, all the cake vs pie vs ice cream vs cookies is quite timely. Though I don't know if we are doing cake tomorrow or Saturday when we are having friends over. Anyway, I think we need a dessert battle royale.

Where my struesel fans at?!

I contend a really good coffeecake is God's true food, in that you are expected to eat cake for breakfast.

I have to keep off FB today, if I can.

Yeah, some people I went to college with are all, "Can someone explain to me why everyone's upset about DeVos????" And my only response is: if you've been paying attention this entire time like you say you have, then I don't have anything to fucking say to you.

"Can someone explain to me why everyone's upset about DeVos????"

Doesn't seem hard to figure that out. I think Sessions is the worst of the lot, though. Ben Carson is probably even more unqualified at HUD than DeVos is at education, but I don't think he's going to actually, you know, do anything. Tom Price is a pretty bad pick too, what with the profiting off of healthcare legislation he voted on.
