Oh my Voltaire!, sometimes I am a good cook. I went on a baking binge tonight and made 2 things, one of which I have tried. The first, brownies. I've made them before. They usually are good, I'm not expecting anything different. The batter was especially yummy. :) The other was to take the muffin mix I usually use and doctor it a little bit. This time I made it into a cake form, like a coffee cake. I used cinnamon apple sauce and then mixed in more cinnamon and walnuts and then baked it in a round cake pan instead of a bunch of muffin tins. I just had a slice of it. Hot damn is it yummy. Now if only I had a hubby to do the dishes for me... or to make enough money so that between us we can afford a dishwasher. :) Or best... a maid. :) (Except I think having a maid goes against my dirty hippie tendencies, but to never have to mop my floor again, I might suppress that tendency.)
In other random news, I was watching Best Week Ever on VH1. They claim that Wal-Mart will start selling sex toys. That's so creepy and weird. They don't let NC17 movies be sold there. They don't sell the rated M for Mature video games. They only carry edited musical CDs, yet somehow if I'm looking for the latest vibrator, I can pick it up there along with my shampoo and deoderant. Of course since I never shop at Wal-Mart, now that I live in a state with the blessed store known as Fred Meyer, this isn't a concern. Especially considering I can just go into any one of at least 4 shops near my house. (Which is in itself slightly weird to me.)

Ah, but they do sell cigarettes.
Don't get a housekeeper. No, do get a housekeeper. No, don't!
I am this close to firing the housekeeper. I think we are going to need that extra $110/month.
There are at least five stores near your house, love, not four.
When I lived in Cambridge we had a housekeeper that came in once a week. It was glorious. Sadly, when my landlord/roommate lost his job we had to scale back and we lost the housekeeper. It wasn't a disaster, but I still miss it.
I said at least... I figured there were probably more that I am not thinking of... But now I'm curious where the other one is. (And not in an I'd like to go visit it way). I was thinking of the crypt, the castle, babes and the one down by Pike Place that's on the 2nd or 3rd floor of a rather run down looking building, and would probably be the least likely one that I would ever enter because it seems to be fairly skeevy.
