"Waste"? I call that a meal! That's a perfectly good lunch!



Watching Serenity is always a legitimate use of time!

I think I accidentally cut off another driver at a 4 way stop sign yesterday. I felt really bad and tried to wave in apology to them, but I don't think they saw or understood. I spent the rest of my drive letting absolutely everyone go before me to make up for it.
Hmm, since this is the kitchen, maybe we are only supposed to make food related confessions here. I was driving to the grocery store to get bread for TG leftover sandwiches when it happened! Oh, no, this is the foyer. I'm a little lost today.

My coffee exploded in the microwave at work. I cleaned it out as best as I could with paper towels, then I left it looking all coffee stained. Then, later, my coworker was like "Some idiot spilled coffee all over the microwave!" and I was all, "Oh my gosh! Who would do such a thing?"

Sorry.

My boyfriend and I have been together for the best four years of my life but we've never said "I love you"!

Really?? Why?

Yeah, that's sort of crazy! I'm the weird guy who always has to hold back from saying the 'L' bomb way to early.

Man, it took biker boy a looong time to tell me he loves me. For him, he sort of doesn't trust his emotions and doesn't articulate them well, so being in love for him is a plan for the future and a comfort level with that plan. For way too long he wasn't ready to say it because, to him, it implied living together and marriage and all that scares him. I don't think he's stopped being scared of marrying me some day or anything, but he at least finally got to the point where he can admit that he's in love and thinks about a future with me. I wasn't happy about saying it to him and not getting the answer I wanted initially, but I did finally realize that he did love me even if he wasn't able to say it, so I waited. And once he did, I knew that he really meant it because he put some soul searching into it and I was glad he hadn't said it before it really rang true for him. But four years? I'd never have made it! We're very free with our I love yous in my family and I like to be able to tell my beloved how I feel, like, every day.

(JonnyWoop, I don't know what you mean by too early, but I have had men tell me they love me inside of a week. Too soon!)

I don't know! Haha, we are extremely affectionate and definitely love each other. I think that because we've waited so long it's turned into a bigger deal! Plus I don't want to say it because I don't want that mile stone to be over...as strange as that sounds? We talk about getting married (well, he does, and I pretend to hate it but I actually love it haha)

I guess we're freaks!

My husband told me he loved me before we were even properly dating. He was the other man. I was a slut. *shrug*

I have never made the Raspberry Blackout Cake. Whew, glad to get that off my chest.

I thought I was the only one!

Thank you. I never had either.

Neither have I. . . probably because I really dislike the combination of chocolate and raspberry.

Okay, but for those of you who DO like the combination, there's no time like the present! I'd make that cake, but then I would eat it. All of it. At once.

I find Daiya really disappointing. I feel like an enemy to The Cause even typing that.

I haven't washed my hair since last Tuesday.

(Though, in my defense, I only wash it every 3-4 days to begin with due to scalp issues and my hair isn't oily and I'm wearing it up, so you can't tell. Don't worry though guys, I shower regularly... Just not when it comes to my hair haha).

Also, speaking of recipes:
I've owned VWAV and VCon for 3 (?) years now, and have only made like maybe a tenth of the recipes in them? I don't like cooking from recipes! So I just look at them for inspiration. My goal is to cook through all my cook books this year.

i too really dislike the combination of chocolate and raspberry. actually, i dislike all fruit-chocolate combinations with the exception of cherries and chocolate.

It's cool, come sit by me. "Disappointing" is the word I'd use for Daiya, too.

I sometimes go days (ahem weeks) without shaving my legs.

Pft, I haven't shaved my legs since ... October? I dunno, once it gets cold, I don't bother because my legs are never exposed in public.

I shaved my legs the other day because sometimes it hurts if my hair is too long but yeah, I can go a month or 2 without shaving.

I think people who shave their legs regularly are probably in the minority on the ppk. I went to shave mine the other day and realized I don't even own a razor any more.

i went to shave mine and found my squeeze had used my razor to shave his chest to impress me. he also left scads of hair in the drain. whomp, whomp.

my confession is that i like follow your heart cheese better than daiya!

Heh. I guess my confession is that I shave my legs regularly.

I sometimes drink day old coffee heated up.

Also, I shaved my legs for the first time in about 2 months yesterday. I shave my pits pretty regularly, but legs...who can be bothered.
