'Safe'
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.
Well, I say "I have work," but I'm currently looking at Ruggable rugs online. Has anyone gotten a rug from them? I'm curious if they live up to their marketing.
We have 2 and I love them! Although we haven't yet put either in the washing machine. They spot clean well enough.
I can report happiness in Pixieland, Cindy. OMG, so much better.
Hmmm. I hadn't heard of Ruggable before today. Interesting!
Timelies all!
Getting warm here.
It's supposed to hit 80 (or more) today ... which would explain why I saw a LOT of cicada husks and a few newly emerged adults. buzz, buzz, y'all
It hit 80 here today, Toddson. It was nice, but I think we're a little too north for Brood X. We just get the dog day cicadas.
Hi, Sheryl.
I can report happiness in Pixieland, Cindy. OMG, so much better.
Nice, Jen!

It looks so good!
Husks galore at my front door.
Thank you, David!
Butter...scraped over too much bread...
When buttering toast, it's important to get an appreciable depth of butter, so meted a given amount of butter, if it's not enough to spread to the edges, I sort of adequately butter the middle and leave margins around the edges. Best, of course, is enough to spread adequate depth crust to crust. Also, if there will be honey, there must be enough butter to mingle the two. If there will be jelly (or preserves, which I prefer) there should be slightly less butter because the preserves contain enough liquid to make up for edge-to-edge butter.
PBJ sammich requires a margin of 1/16th to 1/8th inch all 'round to allow for squish and spread factor.
ETA: If I could find square butter I would leave it on the counter in the black chintzware butter dish my great-aunt left me, but regular sticks are just in a PennaDutch blue pattern on white Pyrex butter dish. Didn't we have a butter dish convo, way back in the mists of time? Crocks you fill with ice water and float a smaller crock in, kind of things?
JenP your hair is fantastic--shows off your face and makes your eyes look enormous and beautiful. I covet that hair! (I'd never wear it b/c hair on my face getitoff getitoff, but) on you it looks wonderful.
I use just a bit of spray butter on the toast before heating it, so it browns nicely. Of course, I'm using a panini press rather than a toaster.
Cindy, all best regarding the meds that work for your son. Ditto for Tim, Steph.
