went over to Emily's today and helped make Christmas cookies. What I should say is helped eat her successfully baked cookies while simultaneously ruining two batches of no-bake cookies. I blame the first on poor directions (no offense Cathy) and the second on ADD. No, I dunno, that's a cop out, 'specially since I've never really considered myself to have such an affliction. Really, though, we (Thea 'n' I) just got so excited when the cocoa/butter/sugar mixture started to boil that we completely omitted the "stir for 1.5 minutes step" that Kristina's sister, Jessie, had so thoughtfully and patiently provided us. *sigh* I blame it on myself. I blame it on Anne Shirley, too. I had never seen that movie before, and I ran out of time to watch the first movie in its entirety, let alone the whole sage, 'fore Emily up and kicked us out (claiming to have to "go to work" or some such malarky!). Anyway - it was quite fun and I think dying in a vat of delicious food is a romantic way for anything to die - not just mice!

Hey,

you.. your kind of funny. I never knew that.
I just want to put in that it was in part, my own fault for pretending to pay attention when in fact I was not. Not even enough to know that you were only pretending as well.
