Good morning! Decent day yesterday, I got some really COOL stuff in the mail (that means yarn), had breakfast on the veranda (that was NICE!), cleaned the house, showered & went to work. I listed the last of the home decor I had available to list & then took the dogs out, picked someone up from in town, had lunch out as I had hoped to (good timing), & since there was nothing left to list in the home decor category & my source of new stock was closed, I took a break out on the back porch swing & then sat down & watched a little of Mars Attacks & crocheted a little bit of my ripple afghan. It was nice to get even a few minutes of crocheting in. Yesterday's Sims game was the Graveyard career & my Sim Daniel has been working on his skills & raising their child Christine (2nd gen) who has now aged up into a toddler. This morning I took the dogs out & loaded up Diamond. My Sim Elizabeth (3rd gen) is in grade school & has been going to school & working on her skills.
At the height of the tulip mania in the Dutch Republic in the early 1600s, a single bulb of the rare Viceroy tulip was worth more than 4 fat oxen, 8 fat pigs, 12 fat sheep, 2 tons of butter, & 1,000 pounds of cheese!
Buy day-old bread, rolls & other bakery items. One day doesn't make a big difference in taste (& you'll end up freezing the leftovers anyway).

ABOUT COOK'S ILLUSTRATED:
Cook’s Illustrated, launched in 1993, is located just outside Boston where a team of more than three dozen test cooks, editors, and cookware specialists work in a 2,500-square-foot test kitchen. Our mission is to test recipes over and over again until we understand how and why they work and until we arrive at the “best” version of a particular recipe.
We start the process of testing each recipe with a complete lack of conviction, which means that we accept no claim, no theory, no technique, and no recipe at face value. We simply assemble as many variations as possible, test half a dozen of the most promising, and taste the results blind. We then construct our own hybrid recipe and continue to test it, varying the ingredients, techniques, and cooking times until we reach a consensus. The result, we hope, is the best version of a particular recipe, but we realize that only you can be the final judge of our success (or failure). As we like to say in the test kitchen, “We make the mistakes so you don’t have to.”
Along with developing recipes, our test kitchen team exhaustively tests kitchen equipment and does blind tastings of supermarket ingredients to tell home cooks which brands to buy…and which to avoid. More than one million Cook’s Illustrated readers rely on Cook’s Illustrated reviews to make smarter decisions about which cooking products and ingredient brands to buy.
Cook’s Illustrated recipes, testings, and tastings can be found in Cook’s Illustrated magazine and cookbooks, online at CooksIllustrated.com, or featured on our public television show, America’s Test Kitchen.

Synergy is exciting. Creativity is exciting. It's phenomenal what openness & communication can produce. The possibilities of truly significant gain, of significant improvement are so real that it's worth the risk such openness entails.
Well, kind of nice to see we've finally gotten rid of voter apathy, right? Thanks to the candidates, it's kind of turned into voter hatred now. -Johnny Carson 1992
