Mmm, ginger
I'm totally addicted to Chimes Ginger Chews. They're sweet and spicy and chewy all at the same time! (And only 14 calories per candy, so not terrible for you). Highly recommended, especially now that Altoids are no longer as curiously strong ( Read more... ) -
Make your own Oreos?
Oreo Cookie Clone RecipeI just don't get it. This is a guy who makes it his business to reverse engineer the recipes to various commercially-available food products and publish them on the web. I mean, yes, I like Oreos, but I'd rather just go to the store and buy a box -- cheaper, more time efficient, and I don't have to think about all the ( Read more... ) -

Eek!
A week or two ago, the contacts portion of my Palm Pilot stops synching with my work computer. Yesterday I finally decided to call our help desk guys and get it fixed. The help desk guy brilliantly suggests deleting everything from my palm and resynching. Because I am a moron, I do this. Result: all the addresses and other contact information ( Read more... ) -

Phew. The two phone interviews today went well, one very well. And now all I need is to do well on the two in-person interviews next week. (Why yes, I am a hot commodity, why do you ask?) Ideally, after this I'll get two more interviews and two job offers. Even more ideally, no one will ask me to do an interview during the two weeks when I'm ( Read more... )
