Home is behind, the world ahead, |
"I slept the last 20 miles home. Unfortunately I was driving ;~D"
Yikes!
East Coast signing off.
See y'all in the a.m. Actually it IS the a.m. here...
Ready for more kitty torture?
<snicker>
"See y'all in the a.m. Actually it IS the a.m. here..."
LOL! Well, good night--er, morning then! :)
I know how it goes!
Good night! Talk in the mornin'!
Well, I'll be sending you a check for the ones I want to send when I send the addresses.
So are you really married now? :)
Good morning!
Izzit Friday yet??
Today promises to be interesting. I already have fires to put out. *sigh* On the bright side, it's gonna be nasty humid and hot- and I ~have~ to stay inside. :)
Good morning!
Very hot and humid here, too. And we have no air conditioning, no air circulation to speak of, and a heck of a lot of equipment putting out heat. *sigh* I'm self conscious in shorts, but there was no WAY I was gonna wear long pants today.
Morning! It's cool here. I think we may get a thunderstorm this afternoon. They're still constructing the road, so it took me forever to get to work. I shouldn't complain about a three-mile commute!
Three miles of doing a lot of waiting is still irritating.
We may get a storm by tonight...maybe we get yours after you're done with 'em? Use them gently...we could use a good storm! Maybe it'd cool it down...
Yes, it's probably the same storm. Hope it does you some good when it gets there.
Wow, it's only a week until I move! I have to call about getting my internet set up right away...
Good morning ladies...
I'm taking the Jedis bowling here in a bit...
A second shipment of cookies is going out at lunchtime!
I think you can expect the next disk in about two weeks. I'll let you know more when I know more myself.
Oh, yeah, and I'm happy this morning. Turns out my favorite manga - "Rurouni Kenshin" is going to be published at a rate of one a month, instead of one every two months. Maybe I'll get to read the whole thing before I finish my Ph.D. ksen, I don't know if you've ever tried manga, but Kenshin's my favorite... and it's at every bookstore, so it's easy to get a hold of.
"Bowling for Jedis"... wonder if that would fit in the keywords...
Heh heh!
Good morning!
Bowling...sounds like fun! I like bowling, though I'm really, really bad at it.
Oh, I know it...I'm aweful. But Celeste is going too and her kids. Then we're going to MacD's for $1.59 happy meals...
Had this for breakfast...I was really craving chocolate, and this was better than most strategies for dealing with 'em...even though I ate both servings.
3 MINUTE CHOCOLATE CAKE
1/4 cup almond flour (1 ounce)
1 tablespoon cocoa
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon granulated Splenda or 1/4 teaspoon liquid Splenda
2 tablespoons Smart Balance, melted
1 tablespoon water
1 egg
Mix the almond flour, cocoa, baking powder and granulated Splenda, if using, in a 2-cup glass measuring cup. Beat egg well. Stir in the liquid Splenda, if using, butter, water and egg. Mix well with a spoon or fork, making sure the egg is well blended. Scrape batter down evenly with a rubber spatula. Cover with plastic wrap* and vent by cutting a small slit in center. Microwave on HIGH 1 minute until set but still a little moist on top. (Mine took a little longer). Cool slightly and serve warm topped with whipped cream or cool completely and frost as desired.
Makes 2 servings
For the Atkineers - the place I got it from had this for carb counts
With granulated Splenda - 4.5 carbs each
With liquid Splenda - 2 carbs each
