I am feeling happy right now! And, I mean, I was pouring free hand so there's no way to know for sure, but it is possible, possible, that I am a little tipsy. Hiiiiiiiiiiii.

I handed in my final assignment (worth 50%, eeep!) for one class, so now it's 1.5 down, 4 to go. Whoohoo! I went to brunch with queen_geek, which was SUPER TASTY but also somehow ( Read more... )

laura! at the minibar

That's how it goes with bakers! You cook it but you don't get to eat it.

The dad who tries too hard totally made me laugh in the first episode, but I could see that it might get annoying over time, idk.

I'm kinda scared right now, I will no lie. My apartment is VERY DARK. But, I like the cop lady!

I am happy! :D

Funny coincidence, I am also a little tipsy right now! That Argento wine never stops being good to me.

Remember that sick fruity stuff we got? I accidentally left it in the freezer and had to retrieve it the next morning. I drank it to night. Not too bad if you drink quickly, ;)

THUMBS UP!

I want to bake something. What am I going to bake? I could make those pb mini-muffins, or pb cookies, or chocolate mini-cupcakes with vanilla frosting, or something with apples, or...

disarm_d November 28 2009, 01:41:02 UTC

ALL OF THE ABOVE! I WILL HELP YOU EAT IT! (pb cookies WITH chocolate, :D? :D?) Oh, and chocolate mini muffins. ummm, yes, I'm sticking with ALL OF THE ABOVE.

one year, my clients, who were a recent immigrant family from east africa, received an xmas hamper/toys for tots kind of thing. the little boy, who was 7 got an easy bake oven. the mother called me in a panic and had me come over because they couldn't figure out wtf they were supposed to do with it. i explained it and the mother and kid looked really suspicious. 'you mean to say that people cook tiny cakes with a lightbulb on purpose.' i feel this did not do much to change her opinion that all north americans are mental.

Whattttttt? I totally would have thought that kind of awesomeness would be a universally appreciated thing!

well, they were a family of 8 who up until 3 years ago had lived in a mud hut and their one cooking pot was a hubcap. I think they were baffled about a lot of things. I had to teach the parents how to grocery shop and they were terrified of the metro, they wanted to know if that's where our king lived. I traded the easy bake in for a soccer ball and some baseball gear, the kid seemed way less frightened of that.

I loved my Easy Bake Oven! Sort of tempted to dig it out of the attic now, I definitely can't cook with a big-girl stove... :D My sister and I had that Creepy Crawlies thing, it was awesome! I remember we mostly just used to throw them at each other.

HP fic - have you read Helen's Theft of Assets yet? It's pretty much the first HP I've read in a couple of years, but it was excellent

That story was one of the other reasons why I really wanted HP recs because OMG, THAT STORY WAS MOTHERTRUCKING AMAZING. Loved it!!!

cunningplan November 28 2009, 02:47:38 UTC

THAT STORY WAS MOTHERTRUCKING AMAZING. I know! And then I had to go through and re-read her other stuff too (I love A Quaint Notion!), and start going through my old bookmarks... I think I might just re-read the entire Lust Over Pendle series, that'll keep me busy for a while until there are new bandom epics for me to devour.

disarm_d November 28 2009, 17:06:37 UTC

She is such an amazing writer. I really dig how unique her stuff is. You know, Lust Over Pendle was one of the classics (possibly the only one!) that I never got into. For no reason, I just tried to read it and couldn't ever finish. I've heard that it's totes amazing though, so I really should try again.

V! I am watching V, although I haven't seen the fourth episode yet because of holidays. And review of Yuletide source, which is ongoing.

But V! I'm loving it.

disarm_d November 28 2009, 17:10:02 UTC

I watched all four last night, \o/ I think that it's the kind of show that's best (for me) if I just watch in large chunks because I don't know how well I'll be able to maintain interest in it. Cliffhangers tend to just annoy me and then I almost don't even want to watch anymore because I know that another cliffhanger is on the way. That's how I felt about older seasons of 24.
