Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Got up early(for a Saturday) to go to an open house at another school we're looking at for Mr. S for next year. Promising, but as with the other school I visited, I worry that his ODD would be considered too much for them to handle. I guess all we can do is apply and see what happens.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I decided it's time for me to start making layer cakes, so I bought cake pans and made a trial cake, and it's a good thing I did, because I couldn't get one layer out! Next time I'll put parchment on the bottom.

Msbelle, that sounds like a clusterfuck.

Askye, I think home is where you can melt down with no repercussions. That living situation seems hard.

ltc is adorable

Maria, you are inspiring me to get my Ss card Now!

Jesse, parchment is awesome. Makes everything so much easier.

My one big problem with layer cakes is the way each cake domes in the middle, and then I have to carve the top off. I haven't figured out how to get them to bake flat on the top.

I'm trying to get enough energy to go around the corner to pick up dinner. But it's wet out...

Thanks, Sophia.

I'm sorry about the SS problems, Maria.

Most of the recipes I see say to cut the dome off, so I don't know that there is a way. Other than making different recipes -- the shallow layers I just made are pretty flat.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am posting from a stage at intermission! This chorus and orchestra are way more relaxed than others I've sung with.
