What Made You Smile/Laugh Today?

It called for a specific sized scoop, which I didn't have. So I had to use a bigger scoop and then just eye ball it.

Came out pretty even.

I use measuring cups, because of all the size options. For small ones (or muffins which rise) I use 1/4 cup, but for stuff that isn't going to rise, I use 1/3 to 1/2 cup.
 
In my defense, I live in a place that got to the cupcake trend late and then went apeshit over it. So apeshit that there is a store here where the owners are also stars of their own reality show about their business and there are lines around the block to get in there.

Reality TV...is there anything it can't corrupt???

I knew that would put me back in your good graces. ;)

I am an open book with 36 point font. So pathetic.

Mmm. I think it's time for another batch.

WAIT! I haven't even given you my mailing address yet!!!

Hmm, you have multiple scoopers. I approve, padawan (I looked up the spelling of padawan). What is your feeling about white zinfandel?

ITW, take heart: pie is the new cupcake. You heard it here first.

Actually, we have one of those. Their pies aren't bad but I always feel like I could do it myself. Besides, now I make healthy crusts only.

That's right. Skinny ITW is in the house. Suffer bitches! You wish you had this ass.

I'm trying to get off it. Ok, that was a lie. But I'm thinking hard about quitting reality TV. I think I would do well on the Amazing Race though.

I think a reality TV show about my life would be fun. I actually suggested this to L. It could be called "Write On!" or a wittier version of that. Every episode would open with me, on my green couch, with my laptop, writing. At various intervals, L would show up and say things like, "Let's go for a walk!" or "Hey, you wanna play Scrabble?" or "Sex would be nice." to which my reply would always be "Later, I'm writing."

I smell a hit!

Why not? They got a hit out of people wandering around in the rain forest, pointing heat sensitive camera's everywhere and saying 'OOH! THERE'S SOMETHING OVER THERE! MAYBE IT'S BIG FOOT!'.

Um, hello? It's a rain forest? What are the chances there's something over there? :rolleyes:

Now I want to see a show where people wander around Keroin's house, pointing heat sensitive cameras everywhere and yelling about big foot. :D

Keroin has big feet? I didn't know that. I guess you don't need snow shoes then, huh? :eek:

I think it would be cool to see all of the little animals holding umbrellas.

lol

I don't have much feeling as I don't drink it often. (if ever) If I had to pick, I'd much rather have a nice aged sauternes.

I'm still very much a padawan when it comes to wine. Need to learn so one day when I inherit my father's 1000+ bottle wine collection it won't go to waste. ;)
 
Shh! They'll hear you!

How can they hear me? They're all too busy screaming about big foot! ;)

And since I'm here, my smile for the day: The words 'I love you,' spoken to me by a very special person, for the first time :)
 
Where are all the smiles today?

I was told to expect "an hour and a half to two hour" interview...it lasted two hours, forty minutes. I was told to expect this one manager to return for the second half of the interview...and she came in with the company owner/president. Sticking to my guns on the "is it ever right to lie" question...and it turning out that was a critical answer to them (which I got right).

So overall, a positive interview. Fingers and toes crossed for a second interview (but I gotta ask ~ if I've already been interviewed by the owner/president, who's left to interview with?)
 
Use an ice cream scoop.

OK, ten bonus points and a crate of maple syrup for the best totally non-food related question to go with this statement.

Okay... so I have a gallon of really high quality silicone based lube, 6½ clothespins, a CD mash up of Michael Jackson's [we love you Michael!!!] 'Thriller' + Beyonce's 'Single Ladies', a purple zentai suit with cat ears, a 3 foot high stack of vintage porn magazines, and an ice cream scoop.

I really really want tonight to be special, but I'm worried my lover might find the whole "ice cream scoop" thing intimidating. Any advice?

ETA: And thank you, CM, for starting my yesterday and ending my today with chortles and smiles.

Radtastic!! :)

For me...today ended with multiple unexpected nuggets of awesome and because of them I am starting to see some positive momentum in the larger areas of my "now what" jigsaw puzzle that my life has been lately... including a potentially nifty job opportunity. Yay!
