I'm trying to make a cheesecake!! The re'cipe says to cook my crust and "Wrap bottom and sides of springform with 2 layers of foil" WHAT DOES THIS MEAN!! Do I wrap the outside of the pan? The inside? The crust? I DONT KNOW!! (
Yes, I'm quoting myself! I should really read recipes through...apparently i'm cooking my cheesecake in a roasting pan of water. I think I got it now!
Yes, wrap the outside of the pan in lots of tinfoil -- try to make the tinfoil go up to the very top so water doesn't leak in. Then you put in the bottom of a large pan (like a turkey roaster), and fill it with boiling hot water so the water goes halfway up the pan. Then cook it. Best way to get a perfect cheesecake!
I shun springform pans, a deep cake pan works just as well if you line the bottom with parchment paper. Also a cake pan is a multi-tasker.
Aw they stole my fucking kidneys!

I took my HDBD pics for tomorrow this morning. I was actually looking okay and always forget on Wednesdays for some reason. HDBD is my favorite day!
I'm taking mine today too in preparation for tomorrow since I have my a/s and we are traveling later that day. I'm not going to have much Bumping time.

Its 7:30 PM...I just want to go to bed already. LOL. I can't believe how randomly tired I am! Maybe its also the tylenol. I haven't taken any for more than a month!
My boss has written me probably a half dozen bad checks because he can't manage his own finances. So last week's check from Friday was returned this morning and now I'm -$400 something and I'm waiting for all my bills to bounce. He wrote me another check today at lunch to make up for it, PLUS this week's pay, but my bank is now putting all paychecks from him on hold because they basically can't trust that the funds will be there. My hold will be released December 6th. I emailed my boss (he's out of the office) and told him he better figure something out before I leave town tonight, whether it be paying me in cash or communicating with the banks. I haven't heard from him in an hour. I think he's going to ignore me and just start his Thanksgiving early so he doesn't have to man up and find a way to pay me.

Sooo stressed.
What a dick! That's an awful way to treat your employees. Kick him!

The mods are going to be busy the next few days??
I kid... we throw the house parties regardless
It only makes me sad if you leave me out (

Ok, so we're the kinds of weirdos that "talk" for our dogs, usually in simplistic visual detail, and when the UPS guy comes and she goes crazy, we always yell for her, "IT'S THE BROWN MAN!"
We only just recently realized how bad that sounds

We found out Saturday we are having a baby girl and told our family we will be naming her Macy. So today I get a package in the mail from my aunt and it is a little girls outfit from Macy's with a note saying "Macy's first outfit from Macy's!"
I just took a nap and woke up with my white kitten licking my face. I looked at her cute sweet little face and it was stained red. I felt my face and it was wet and red...for a quick second I thought my baby kitty was eating my face. Then I realized I had a massive bloody nose, and either she was trying to clean me up, or she liked the taste of blood. Either way GROSS.

That's both awwww and eeewwwww all at the same time!!!
Just had a huuuuge wave of nausea hit. So much for my smart plan of ordering Jimmy John's for lunch
I wish my office had a cot or something to lay back on and get the pressure off my belly. Or that my boss wouldn't judge me for asking to lay down in my car for 10-20mins.
@TallaB Wrap the outside if the springform with foil.
@Poru You assume that I do my hair every day! Haven't touched it since I got preggers! Mwahahahahaha! Actually, I'm very much a wash and wear girl. My hair is really healthy usually, so I can get away with air drying it and just brushing it out. The avatar was taken right after I got my hair dyed pink and purple over the summer. So that's the salon wave. I can do it, but never quite as well as my hairdresser does. But thanks for thinking I look that good all the time!

This was an UO of mine a while back - I fucking hate that creepy elf! And I noticed there is now at birthday version??? I saw him at Target and didn't check further because...NO NO NO NO NO!!!!
I have an elf on the shelf that someone gave me, and I put it out at Christmas. But I don't think it will move around the house and do funny things. Once you sign up for that.... you have to be committed.

My mom got one for DD last Christmas. I am not really a fan but when she is old enough to enjoy it I will probably get off my lazy bah humbug butt and move him around. I never cared about decorating for Christmas before I had DD, but I care now!
