short takes

LJ is still dropping more comment email than it's delivering, at least to me. If I haven't responded to something you expected me to reply to, that's probably why.

This week I have been blessed with food gifts. First lorimelton and ralphmelton gave me yummy ginger-chocolate bars (and is that crystalized ginger mixed into the batter too?), and then today's mail brought a lovely fruitcake from browngirl. It's beautiful and smells wonderful, and I look forward to savoring it in small doses.

Scott Adams' entry on bluffing literacy could explain some people I've known. :-)

Someone gave me this at Darkover. I've always wanted one!

Yep, the bars have chunks of dark chocolate and hunks of crystalized ginger. I thought you'd like them :-)

I sure do! You know me well. :-)

(I've been thinking of adding crystalized ginger next time I make ginger-molasses cookies. Nice to have a precedent; I wasn't sure how it would bake.)
