this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Amy, if you use dried fruit in place of fresh/frozen, you might have to increase the liquid (water, milk, etc.) in the recipe to compensate for the amount of liquid the fruit would have contributed.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I'd rather have a baby seal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They are pretty different, so you'd probably have to adjust something else, but I'm not 100% sure what. It's not as extreme as grapes vs. raisins (because cranberries aren't as wet as grapes), but it's got to be similar. What's the recipe?

Because books.

It's a cookie recipe, and there's almost no liquid in it aside from vanilla and one egg. Hmm.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

When Franny was a toddler I tried to watch "The Sound of Music" with her, but the moment it started with the music swelling and Julie Andrews spinning on the mountain top and belting out "The hi-ills are a-liiiive..." Franny burst into tears! Too much emotion! Her little body couldn't handle feeling all that emotion at once.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Glee just used "Favorite Things" in their xmas episode.

Hey, guess which long-lost Buffista I had breakfast with yesterday? Angus!

He's on a cross country holiday trip, and we went to Zazie and yet another out-of-towner has had the gingerbread pancakes.

It was good to see him and we walked around the City for three hours and I introduced him to Adventure Time, and he explained Melbourne to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Man, I was such an emotionally deficient child, it seems. Unless it featured alligators or slavery, I was pretty much immune.

Amy, maybe you can re-hydrate them before you put them into the cookies? Take out the guesswork?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

So, Obama is going to sign off on the Indefinite Retention bill, which means no habeas corpus.

Which is just insane to me. So, he can go fuck himself and everybody in the White House can go fuck themselves and their police state wanting ways. If you don't know what a dictatorship looks like, well, it starts with holding people in jail without due process.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Cool, Hec. eta uh, xpost. Cool on the brunch with Angus, not the destruction of our civil society.

Because books.

Dad's going to run to the supermarket for me to get fresh, and pick up my prescription, which I forgot about. Retired parents with cars are handy.
