Note to self: when cooking something that is supposed to solidify as it cools, wash out the pan while it's still warm.
I just tried a little bit of the chickpea tofu. It tastes kind of eggy, which I was not expecting.
Lorne: Back in Pylea they used to call me "sweet potato." Connor: Really. Lorne: Yeah, well, the exact translation was "fragrant tuber" but…

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

wants a snow melting machine
Baltimore got a special environmental dispensation to dump snow in the harbor.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I feel like it just doesn't stay cold that long in NYC, usually, as well. Most of the time I lived there, it was slush, not snow, we were actually dealing with.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
To be fair, a lot of NYC's snow also just winds up in big piles on the sidewalk corners. Anything that falls on a street in Manhattan melts pretty quickly because of the subways running underneath 24/7 (keeping things warm), but sidewalk slush can stick around for a while.

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
To - well, I hate to say defend, but - I would assume that Snowmageddon '10 is the kind of circumstance where she is not in fact charging her patients, regardless of any 24 hour policy (that I am dead certain she has). But your contract with, and obligation to, your therapist is quite different than to your nanny.
And its SO much harder to re-schedule an eight hour shift with a baby. ::rolls eyes::
The only thing I can see not paying the Nanny if you cancel on her at the very last minute (regardless of reason unless you have some days like that built into your agreement) is some sort of travel allowance.
I had no idea a snow melting machine existed. Neato.
iirc, we were inventers or early adopters of snow melting machines.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Good gravy, Vortex. That's particularly vivid to me given how recently I was on your balcony.
