Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Hee. Edit: That was originally for Calli, but applies to Typo's link as well.
So, even I would have predicted that my wall patches would look crappy, and they do, but what I had not thought about was how bad the fresh white paint makes the other old "whites" look -- the door, tiles, etc. So now I have to think about what color to actually paint it, and also decide if I'm going to take my mother up on her offer to get an actual skim coat put on when she has her bathroom redone in a couple of weeks.

That is a downside to fixing (or spot cleaning or touching up) one thing.
I feel like I should massage and cook (or is that bathe?) my no doubt lesser kale, now. I don't even know what kind it is.

Can kale spas be far behind? Or pre-massaged kale?

FWIW, I find massaging kale to be unnecessary. But I love kale!

I feel like massaging kale helps make it more tender when I'm using it in a salad.
Bob's making us dinner right now with kale! Pasta with kale and breadcrumbs. He thought he'd gotten the wrong kind because he got lacinato kale and the recipe calls for tuscan. I had to explain that they were the same thing and that it's sometimes it's called dinosaur kale. Who knows why?!

I didn't know people could have favorite types of kale! ...I"m not even sure I knew there were types of kale. Though seeing lisah's post I guess I'd heard of both lacinato and dinosaur. But had no idea what separated them (apparently nothing?). Or if they are different from "regular" kale.
So now I have to think about what color to actually paint it, and also decide if I'm going to take my mother up on her offer to get an actual skim coat put on when she has her bathroom redone in a couple of weeks.
...is there a downside to getting a professional to do it?

I've never even tried kale salad.
Ooh, pasta is a good idea! And, hey, I found the notice of what was in my last CSA box and it's lacinato kale. I did not know all those different names were the same thing.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Oh sweet lord that was hilarious. I think I embarrassed Biyi reading that in a shoe store.
