Spidra, there is a good Cook's Illustrated one. I think it may have been posted in natter at some point in the past few years, but I don't have easy access to it at work. You might want to try Googling it.

Anyway, they host game night which is free and non-denominational, and they're not selling Amway or Scientology or anything. They just do it to foment community. And they've created all these decorations in the little gardeny plots on the sidewalk with hand made figurines that are very fetching and sweet.

Did they do a game night this past month? It occurs to me I haven't gotten an email in awhile.

David, sounds like commies to me. Watch out.

Plans for the weekend: media tonight at Calli's if I'm not too zonked, flex reimbursement paperwork (blecch), maybe some Xmas shopping, dog park.

the children of the anti-vacc people are paying the price

I know a set of parents who have refused most vaccines for their 4 children. I wondered at one point if the back-to-back vaccines with a possible mix of mercury contributed to Reed's autism. I spaced out Sarah's vaccinations, but the autism rates are different for girls so I don't know if the experiment really worked.

Also headed to the Narnia movie this weekend. Other excitement includes soccer and wrestling, attending a birthday party for a classmate of Sarah's and a basketball ref meeting for me. Somewhere in there I hope to sleep and laze about with Peppermint Joe-Joe's.

They did at least one when you were out of town, I recall.

Thanks, Sue. I posted the question on another board I'm on and got no suggestions so I Googled for Mexican Chocolate cupcake recipes. It's not that I can't Google, but it helps to get a recommendation from someone who has tried a recipe and knows that it actually turns out well.

That's very cool, David.

I woke up at 7:30 this morning (set the alarm) and that's good. More daylight for me. At 1pm I meet this guitarist and I really hope that turns out okay because performing again would be awe. some.

Spidra, here is the cupcake recipe I mentioned: [link]

May see the Narnia movie tomorrow, may go to a friend's brunch on Sunday. Other than that, resting up.

Tonight, I'm watching Tron and dying horribly in Limbo.

Tomorrow, I'm getting an oil change and, I don't know, watching lots of movies at home and/or writing LJ posts about Europe.

Sunday, I have two auditions.

OMG I love not working Fridays. Usually I have been catching up or running errands or chores or somesuch, but today I have done nothing but have my coffee and watch the TiVO'd shows. I've got it almost cleared off.
