Well, it's certainly not stuffed.

No, unless one considers it stuffed with chicken. But that's just silly.
Last work trip this year! At the moment though I'm most worried about all the presents I ordered arriving in time. When will I learn to just have them shipped to my sisters house (and risk her opening them) vs sending to my house and maybe missing them en route and having nothing to give?
On another note: white privilege in action! Yesterday was at the mall with friends and one walked out of the store with a book under her arm. And the other went "wait, did you pay for that?" And first friend was horrified. And ran back into the store to buy it (she had intended to). And nobody at the store said a word.

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

Oh, yeah. When I was a teenager, I knew plenty of other well-off white teenagers who would go to the mall and shoplift for fun. Little things that that could easily afford if they'd wanted to, like makeup or whatever. They almost never got caught, and when they did, the most that the stores ever did was kick them out.

I saw an article once that said that black teenagers who go to mixed schools are more aware of racism than black teenagers who go to mostly black schools, and they posited that it was because of stuff like that -- the black kids at mixed schools would go to the mall with their white friends and see them pulling crap like that and not getting into trouble, while the black kids knew that they'd be in major trouble if they tried anything like that.

Dana - thanks to you I wanted a baked potato, but alas, no potatoes in the house. I do have a couple of sweet potatoes, so one is now in the microwave. Thanks for the inspiration.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Suzi, I recommend bacon, butter, and cheese.

I had already packed sweet potatoes as part of my lunch, score!
ETA with ham. And butter.

I don't have bacon, so I'm thinking just some butter and a light sprinkling of brown sugar.
-t, ohhh, ham sounds great. Alas, none of that in the house either.
For dinner should I make smothered chicken or lamb stew?
