this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Here we are as Mr. and Mrs. Ichabod and Hot Topic Katrina Crane: [link]

And here's a better picture that shows off my giant green necklace that lets me see the Headless Horseman's head: [link]

That is most definitely NOT a good hair color for me, with my uber-pink skin tone. But it's Halloween, so what the hell.

Wow Drew, that's awesome...I assume you'll just have to quickly figure out how to clone yourself five or six times?

Great photos, Steph!

I made cardamom-molasses cookies for yesterday's office potluck and had leftover cardamom-infused sugar. So I put it in my coffee this morning. It does not suck.

Coffee and toast: So, I'm thinking of trying Nanowrimo this year. Is anyone else dong it? Do we discuss it in the writing thread?

I have acquired a blimp white pumpkin. Now to fashion a harness for it.And clean off my porch since I'll be sitting out there all evening. But first, Target run.

Fabulous photos, Steph!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Great costumes, Tep!

I am intrigued by this cardamom-infused sugar concept.

I'm not doing NaNoWriMo this year, maybe next year, but I'd be happy to wave pom poms for anyone who is! Discussion has certainly happened in Great Write in past Novembers.

I am intrigued by this cardamom-infused sugar concept.

I made these cookies: [link]

To save a click, part of the process involves putting five cardamom pods and half a cup of sugar in a closed jar for 4-5 days. You use that sugar for dipping the cookie dough balls before baking, but there's lots left over. I made two batches with the half-cup and still have more than half of it left. Seemed a shame to waste it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ooh, that sounds good.

Saw a guy this morning in a red and white striped shirt and only today would I wonder if he was in costume as Waldo.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Calli, I'm doing NaNo. I was iffy on it, until I mentioned it in front of a friend, whose entire family is doing it, so now I kinda have to. Once again, I'm forced to have fun. Dammit. Still haven't settled on a concept, though.

Food safety question: say I left a turkey and bacon sandwich in a car for six-seven hours at about 40 degrees F last night. Refrigerated after I got home. Can I eat it? It smells okay and I've nuked it for a couple minutes.
