My last post is still growing and evolving. In the meantime, I'm trying to prepare for the office Christmas party - I was tasked with making brownies. My initial intent was to do this, but my poor health and even poorer purse forced a cutback to two Duncan Hines mixes... augmented a bit by my SRMD-driven culinary skills. This is the first time I've used the stove in the apartment, and the first time in over a decade that I've had to use a gas oven. I was raised and taught on an electric range; I don't trust gas, no matter how safe people tell me it is. I've learned to trust those instincts. Here, I have little choice. But the first batch looks to have turned out perfectly, and the second is currently in the oven now. Hopefully they'll be edible. I need to rummage a bit and see if I can locate my fancy tins... it'd be nice to be able to present them properly. *sad smile* Presentation. Something that was driven into my head by a truly amazing Lady. Anyway, the cooking continues. It's just occurred to me, however, that I've not eaten anything since this morning. I need to remedy that. But before I go, I wanted to offer a bit of madness that the older of my sisters sent to me (it seems so appropriate at the moment, too):
