Glad Sass is doing better... poor noodle.
These caramel stuffed apple cider cookies must be made soon. They look amazing.

Oh, Kat, how can you be so EEEEVIL?
IOW, I need to make those cookies, too.

The name of the cookies makes them sound yummy, but the apple cider drink mix scares me on principle. It makes my brain repeat: WHY? WHY? WHY?

Sparky, I'm so glad your dog is feeling better and will recover. My family had a lab that was fed rat poison when I was very wee and died. We suspect it was done by our neighbor who used to complain about him barking, but it was never confirmed. There's a special hell for those kinds of people.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Yay for Sparky's dog!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Sparky, what a relief!
On a completely unrelated note, is there anywhere to watch old Simpsons episodes online? I have a craving to rewatch the Prisoner ep, but I don't have that season on DVD.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Me, too! And phew for your dog.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Apple cider drink mix is great for when you want a hot drink that's not tea. I used to pack them for plane trips, before I strayed over into the world of uncaffeinated teas. I can imagine they'd be the best way to inject cider taste into cookies without adding volume too.

I'm so glad the news is good about your dog, Sparky!
This is my first post-school morning, in, like, forever. As in, I'm completely finished with classes, final project turned in, and so on. Feeling quite a little bit empty, you know?

I can see that they would be good for travel, but otherwise I'd prefer to just heat up a cut of cider from a bottle. I wonder if you could just substitute spices in that recipe.
