Turkey is overrated in my opinion. All the turkeys I've had ended up too dry. I prefer chicken.

I'm also an introvert. So yeah I guess I don't talk very much and don't do the people thing well.

And this place is like... So many people.

Man, I've been waking to post something in FaWtL, but I haven't had the time to come up with a post, so I'll stick with this one instead!

Something only I can find at a thrift store.

A Christian book about dinosaurs.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Yeah, they were in the Bible. You can always find those in thrift stores. :D

But laying aside the snark:

"Christian" =/= "Dino-disbeliever"

To each their own. It's been a godsend to me, and unless the checkout lanes are completely empty and there's a backup at the self-checkout lanes - which literally never happens at the same time - I'll always choose the latter. It's just so much more convenient and less stressful, cutting out just one more person I'm forced to interact with in the process of the things that I'm required to do between "being at my house" and "being at my house again".

Maybe that makes me a jackass for not caring about people enough. I'm used to that.

On second reading, my comments may have come off preachy and I apologize if they did. Everyone has their priorities, and I don't presume to judge others based on their choice of checkout aisle.

Manager has been burning one of those huge pine scented candles all day I can not handle this degree of pine. Its like Chris pine was beating me to death with a Christmas tree.

Geez, I wish advice lines would actually offer advice, rather than, "We need to say this in order to avoid being sued."

So, one of the other kids shot Impus Major point blank in the eye with a Nerf gun. So the big question is, "Yeah, it hurt like h***, but do I need to take him to the ER?"
And their standard answer for ALL eye injuries is, "Yes, take him to the ER."

Which is utterly useless. Why would I call an advice line if I knew that the advice would always be, "Take him in!"

Fortunately, she then listed all the symptoms to watch for, and he doesn't have any of them, so I'm going with the whole, "Ow! That hurt like h***, but it's nothing permanent!"

So just gotta de-steam for a bit before getting to bed. I was pretty pissed, but his dad's a super-disciplinarian so I just turned him over to his dad for punishment. His dad's very first suggestion was, "Ban him permanently from your house."

Now that's a hardcore dad.

Surprisingly intense story when you think about it. I'm sure that did hurt like H***. I remember aiming for my brothers eyes. It was from a distance and I can't remember every hitting him there. Now with a squirt guns I was a regular William Tell.

My family has put names to the Black Hereford/Angus cattle they own, on occasion -- and we call them by name even when on the plate. "_______ was a good cow, and a better dinner."

Reminds me of one of my parents' stories:

Back when my parents were recently married, they went to visit my grandpa (Dad's dad) on his farm. He had a small calf that the mother had rejected, so he was bottle feeding it. My mom fell in love with it on sight, and asked grandpa what it's name was. He looked at her like she was an idiot and said "His name is Deep Freeze." Mom, being somewhat obtuse, said "That's a weird name. Why do you call him that?" Grandpa said "Because that's where he's gonna end up." Mom cried.

A year or so later, they go back to visit, and the calf isn't there anymore. Mom asks "Where's the calf you had last time we were here?" Grandpa says "Most of him is in the freezer, but some of him is right here" pointing at the steaks he was going to cook for dinner. Mom cried all through dinner, but admits it was one of the best steaks she's ever had.

My friend is convinced that if you name a farm animal it tastes better... yeah hes not right in the head.

And, now I'm home. Checked up on my mother as I came in, and her left eye is all bruised. It seems as if the floor actually punched her in the eye as she fell. Both eyelids are bruised. I told her what to expect when she looks in the mirror in the morning.

I had some work done on the house. The contractor sent two guys, one old hand and one newbie. The experience carpenter really nailed it, but the FNG screwed everything up.

Sure, I could use some jokes. I need to wind down from working 19 continuous hours today. The guard I normally relieve had a flight today.

Oh, my giant dice tower was a hit at the game tonight. I got a lot of laughs, and several people asked to use it for some important rolls. So, $1 and 1 hour well spent.

In some ways it works too well. The dice sometimes pick up too much speed and bounce out of the tray I made to catch them. If I decide to keep it around for the occasional roll, I'll probably make a new tray with bigger sides.

Well, it turns out that mom had "Obstructive pneumonia". In other words, there was a blockage causing some fluid build up. They removed the blockage and mom is doing better. She is now coughing 1/10 as much as she was.

Sharoth - would it help if you took your mom out for some sunshine in the morning?

Oh. I killed my first familiar today. I feel bad.

I would, but they still have her hooked up to the IV for more fluids. As soon as I can, I will be taking her outside.

Oh and happy thanksgiving for all you people that celebrate it.

December is going to be rough. Two exams, night shift work on the same days, and three end projects to wrap up during said rough patch of work. I hope I'll manage to pull through all this relatively okay. Last time I had this kind of job I wasn't studying, which made it easy to just focus the out-of-work time on resting and prepping for the next shift.

Dang it, I had something to say but forgot.

Happy Thursday...

The recipe used 3 cups of evaporated milk, but so far not good enough -- hit time and the centers are still pure liquid. Fortunately, the edges have solidified, so I'm going for another 15 minutes.

It's only at 300 degrees, so the crusts can endure quite a bit longer...

Put strips of aluminum foil on the edges of the crust if they look like they're browning too much. And yeah, this is a common problem with the evaporated milk recipe. I totally freaked out the first time it happened to me. Especially since my husband is crazy picky about pumpkin pie. Always with the critiques of the texture of it. *rolls eyes*

i would never critique the texture of your pie, its deliciousness is all but assured!

If a recipe suggests 300 it's wrong.

425 to start and then 350 afterwards.

oh?

This sounds wrong to me, but the pies I enjoy most baking come out of a box. The pies I enjoy most eating are another story...
