I need a nap...

Jan 29, 2007 16:21

I have a very important question:  Does anyone know or have any idea how to find out if the white chocolate M&Ms will be coming back out?  (Remember the "Pirate Pearls" *cough*RNotCM&Ms*cough*?)  I really really really really really want some...I'm hoping it's not too optimistic to think "Pirate Pearls" might come back for AWE.  Anybody?

And my ( Read more... )

Yes, the nap helped a bit - as did "Master and Commander", which I read until I dropped off, with the nice warm cat on my lap...unfortunately, then my two year old woke up from his nap, and it was dinner time, so I had to wake up. Oh well. Bed time is fast approaching. :-) (Oh, to be in bed...)

Oooh, the cake sounds very yummy - do you add the water before putting in the bottom layer? I love gooey chocolatey carmely things like that...yummmy. :-) I'll have to go pick up a box of chocolate cake mix - I love those boxed mixes; I've made a cake from scratch a few times, and it was way more work and dishes and didn't taste half as good as the boxed mix, so I figure why even bother with all the trouble? (And I have no doubt I'll be getting myself a pint of Phish Phood while I'm at it to comfort myself on a lonely evening.)

I'm almost afraid to go find out all that I've missed... I know you are working on a new fic - but I've got to catch up on the previous fics! Oh dear... ;-) Definitely something to look forward to. :-)

;) In my family, we have a rule that we can only make it on special occasions. I don't want to begin to imagine how fat I'd be if we made it at other times.

I like making cakes from scratch from time to time, but only because it makes me feel all accomplished. The boxed mix tastes better and makes less mess.

Don't add the water to the bottom layer, except for what the mix says, of course. Only the second half of the batter do you add a bit of water.

Well, fic-wise, I've updated my fic guide up to the story I'm currently working on. It's in chronological order of the AU rather than when I wrote it, so scan it to make sure you haven't missed anything. :)

heh heh, yes, it's best that certain things are reserved for special occasions. Especially considering what sugar hounds some of us are (that would be in reference to me, but I doubt I'm alone ( ... )

Aww, *hugs*

Would you like me to send some Cadbury's chocolate from Ireland?
Or, if you'd like me to write something for you, just say the word (and, y'know, give me a prompt of some sort^^).

Thanks for the hugs. :-) And the offer of chocolate, which is so sweet of you, and I do love Cadbury's (oooh, do I loooove Cadbury's...) - but I've accrued an impressive collection of cookies (all the ones I've been wanting to buy for the past six months but never allowed myself, well, I've got them ALL now, not to mention the chocolate cake I'm planning to make...), so I'll just take you up on your offer to write something. :D Perhaps if you could give me a bit of snarky Navyboy fluff? And how 'bout for a prompt that it has something to do with an animal of some sort, preferably something more interesting than a dog or cat (which idea I got from an amusing bit of "Master and Commander", in which Dr. Maturin is delighted that the men managed to procure for him a remora that was attached to the bottom of the Sophie - but I thought 'remora' was a bit too narrow of a prompt.) :D
