As promised: Amaranth Baked Apple Pie

I've been toying with the idea of learning to cook more for a long time. I love cooking more than life or strong spirits.

So, many moons ago when Amaranth was still living with Vivica (who, incidentally, is awesome. Go tell her I said so, now, thankyou kindly), Amaranth's Mother Dearest gave Amaranth a shiny new set of...

mmm... pie. I didn't even know there were three types of sugar. I feel stupid... and also very hungry.

good work my friend biggrin

Hello there. I like that you made "Canadian apple pie"... rather than the boring cliche "American apple pie".

Obviously a pentagram distinguishes the Canadian version!

Connections. I have never been there, but as per our conversation the other night, the idea of the place kinda scares me.

I fear I still have much to learn about myself.
pixen:
I got a special mention. Because I'm special.

Are you paying for the air ticket, then?

I keep torturing myself about my abysmal failure to approach a nameless girl who looked kinda a little bit like Palo. I know it's a foolish thing to do, but I cannot seem to get her out of my head.

*sigh*

There are many days in which I am called a hopeless romantic. This would be one of them.

This has been one of...

Write her a note on a big piece of cardboard and leave it in a public place.

Perhaps it could say Excuse me, I think you look really beautiful today...

If you did that for me I'd give up my day job to draw you pictures and carve platitudes of love into apple skin.

It can't fail! biggrin

I think approaching someone you don't know is an exceptionally courageous thing to do; and even if nothing happens from it..... if you don't come across as a crazy stalker person, she will definitely remember you and think it was cool. what do you have to lose.

For those of you who don't read the newswire (shame on you): Live8 Footage

In barely moments, I shall have the Cure singing for me. My excitement is palatable.
ampersand:
golly. that is exciting!

I'm all over the Placebo clips. And the Cure. And Muse. All on the same bill.

I'm already on my third screwdriver, and my pillows readily await my tears.

I *hate* people. I will never understand how anyone could ever justify such horrific, wanton violence. Now, if you'll excuse me...

I am angry. No, nothing to do with bombs, we've had plenty of those in the UK. But with people who have nothing to say to me but complaints about subject lines, who keep making those same complaints, even though they've said they'll stop making those complaints and even though I've told them that I'll never change my subject line / headline style. So, minimal SG for me for a few days.

The bomb thing is confusing. I don't know what they think they're achieving. Many UK citizens were vehemently anti Iraq-war, and are anti-Israeli pro-Palestine. I guess that'll change a bit know. Oh well. A tricky situation jsut got much trickier.
ampersand:
I only caught a brief glmpse of this on the news at work. Didn't really dawn on me the magnitude of the whole thing.

Except till I realised my Mum is due to fly to the UK tomorrow. Hard to know what to think.

Again, apologies for the fiasco that is MSN for Mac. Talk soon.

Why does no one ever send me a bouquet?

I've always had to be the one sending them. For some reason I only ever seem to date self-absorbed women who don't pay much attention to what I actually like.

Oh, the tradgedy. I fear I shall drown in my own melodrama. Now some song lyrics:

My heart is black.
Like a thing that is black...

self-absorbed woman signing in, I don't want it, haven't been using it, do whatever you want with it.

Heh. You sounded slightly confused. Couldn't just make the change without confirming the details, so yeah. Hope it's all sorted now.

ampersand:
shit! really? wonder how long that's been there. thanks for telling me. i can't believe I've been walking around all this time and no one told me...

thanks for that.

so this thing that we keep talking about doing? did you still want to do it?
ampersand:
well, now that you mention it both of the things discussed. i'm not fussy on place. anything slightly city is fine for me.

working most days this week, perhaps next weekish or weekend? let us move this conversation to a more email like approach and go from there, yes?

... meanwhile, bed is calling...

After all this time I still cannot cast aside the things I hate the most. I wish I could.

At least hate is passionate.

There is nothing worse than insipid apathy.

pixen:
Yeah, I am.

And sometimes I even believe it.
