It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

Because books.

Pumpkin cinnamon rolls! See, I'd make those but no one would eat them but me. Which is the case around here with way too much of the baked stuff I want to make.

Sara gave me permission to go wild with her birthday cake, though.

But I don't even like cinnamon rolls! I made them as thanksgiving thing before K's birthday.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I actually can't think of anything particularly nerdy I've done lately. Someone take my temperature!

Question, other than "straight from the jar", what does one eat speculoos ON? I'm afraid if I don't have a plan for it, it will degenerate into my usual Nutella plan: eat an apple with Nutella and then somehow just KEEP EATING NUTELLA.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My mother made me pumpkin cheesecake for dessert tonight, because I was whining on Thursday. So nice! Pummmmpkiiiiiinnnnnn.

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

Tim?

Har.

Thanks for the recipe, Kat. I didn't ID the pumpkin until you mention it, but...der. Of course.

Amy, that's gorgeous! Modcloth is awful crack. I need to not even look. My last Modcloth order didn't even come out of the bag (it was $20! I just saved that much in a month with my phone bill, so it's okay, right? fine, whatever...)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's totally unfair that I have to go back to work tomorrow, right?

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

Speaking of dollhouses.

Oo, I should keep tabs on that and see what she sells it for. We have some of my MiL's antique dollhouses, I think one Georgian and one Victorian, and we need to figure out how to sell them for something approximating their worth.

Meara, I eat speculoos on bread, bagels, apples, pears, crackers, cookies, Belgian waffles, pancakes, bananas.

Absolutely. I'm dreading the bus stop in the morning myself.

So the soundtrack to the original Muppet Movie isn't in print anymore? What's wrong with the world?!
