Abby looks adorable!

Askye, seriously, i'm sorry you have to work with that whacko woman.

Thrive to spite them

Everyone is sorry I have to work with her. She's known as being difficult and of course she doesn't think that. But she's part of working there and it's a better place than I used to work.

She was gone for awhile on a leave and most people said it was much nicer.

But if I'm lucky I'll be in Vermont in a while.

Also I'm trying to get my place looking good but it's hard when it's hot and SYTYCD is on. Plus I forgot my balcony I've never used and needed to sweep off. The wood is wet in some places, I hope it's not damaged.

I keep telling myself it doesn't have to be perfect, mostly just get my dirty clothes hidden away some place.

This is the first year I've watched SYTYCD! It's really fun.

Arnold breads don't have HFCS in them, which is good because they are nummy (for store-bought bread).

Wheat Thins, OTOH, do, and it makes me sad because there is NO REASON why a WHEAT CRACKER needs to have three kinds of sugar in it. (Cane juice, corn syrup, and HFCS. Ick.)

A lot of barbecue sauces have HFCS in them. And Ketchup and salad dressings. It's in everything almost.

Ocean Spray finally stopped putting it in their cranberry juice.

In addition, the wheelchair people are taking over some places, outnumbering those on foot. It's kind of an interesting perspective, having them be in the majority, even for a brief while.

When we were planning my uncle's memorial service in Arlington VA, we had to think about capacity in terms of chairs. Thank god we had Rosemary there to visualize what we needed.

belated thank you for goat cheese recipes. The recipes themeselves are good, as is the advice on ways of thinking about goat cheese.

At least in these cases, I can understand why - where HFCS is replacing more expensive kinds of sugar, it doesn't bother me as much.

But Wheat Thins? Do not need to be sweet!! Maybe if there weren't so much damn sugar in there to begin with, they could lower the sodium content that's currently overcompensating.

I should start making my own crackers again. They're embarrassingly easy, and I'd know exactly what was in them.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Get some fresh figs (if you can), cut them in half, smear a bit of goat cheese on the cut side, and wrap the whole thing in a slice of prosciutto. Place these on a baking sheet and broil for about 3-4 minutes, or until the prosciutto is slightly crispy.
