My older brother? Is a DORK. Turns out he's not coming up for the family BBQ, which means that yet again my plans to sit and chat with him in person re: such topics as why when we both talk about whether or not a woman is attractive, we really are coming at it from the same perspective have yet again been thwarted.
Let this be a lesson to all of you that not coming out to family members simply because you're lazy is a really, really stupid idea. On the other hand I've decided his dorkitude, coupled with the fact that Elder Brother already confirmed my bisexuality for him without knowing that OB hadn't gotten the formal declaration, means that he's just gonna get his ass told in email.
For those of you who are simply fascinated with what I spend ten dollars and under on, as I told
buffybot last night the answer to the question "Who doesn't have a ricer?" is, apparently, "TBQ's local Stop & Shop". Bed, Bath & Beyond it is. I've got a stack of recipes I'm going to try this holiday weekend and the ricer's needed for one of them.
I'm mildly disappointed to find that The Brat Mom wasn't as bouncy as I was over the idea of using her brand-new ice cream maker (gift from Elder Bro this past Xmas) to, you know, make ice cream. Or at least to make it this weekend. I may just end up swiping it from her on my way home tonight and doing it myself. First off b/c it would be fun, and second b/c one of the recipes I want to try is for a thin vanilla cookie which would go well with ice cream. Plus it's ice cream, there's no wrong to be found there.
I also want to try writing this weekend but I don't know what yet. Darn contradictory muses.
