Sunday Productivity report

[caffienekitty]

Hm. I intended to write Fic today. Instead I:

-Did two loads of laundry
-Vacuumed
-Did dishes
-Cleaned the kitchen
-Got an unstoppable urge to make cookies.
-Got stuff to make cookies.
-Misjudged how many teaspoons of baking powder convert to how many tablespoons of baking powder.
-Misjudged how big a full batch of chocolate chip cookie dough was.
-Misjudged how many vaguely cookie-sheet-like objects I own.
-Misjudged the remnants of my roll of aluminum foil (aka 'back up cookie sheet').
-Improvised cookie sheets.
-Managed to turn the dough for three dozen theoretical cookies into fifteen kind of poofy cookies and a staggering number of charcoal briquettes.
-(Oh, and also turned part of it into a log of cookie dough in the freezer, suitable for cookie emergencies or for bludgeoning intruders.)
-In the process, also rendered my kitchen unclean in a huge way.
-And made absolutely certain that my smoke alarm works.
-Very, very well.
-Sigh.

Yay for Sundays! \o/

Was all ready to invite you to come clean my kitchen till you got to the cooking part. I think I'll clean up my kitchen by myself. Glad your smoke alarm works! LOL! please write fic next time.

I know! Fic would have been cleaner (probably), but it was one of those things where you get the urge to do something and can't concentrate on anything else til you do it. Gah.

is it mean to say that reading this made me laugh like a hyena? because it totally did and I'm feeling kinda guilty about that :D

+ tin foil cookie sheets = total life saver!

(hoping you got some writing done at least.... :) *hugs*)

My day has been laughable. No feeling guilty needed.

Totally. Which is why the two inches of tinfoil left on the roll was so irksome.

(hoping you got some writing done at least.... :) *hugs*)

Apparently I did, but it's NCIS (????) for that Gen Battle thing. I have no idea.

That was hilarious! And I have totally done the same thing. Charcoal birquettes FTW! \o/

The difference between "bake" and "broil" is huge, I tell you. Huge.

Heeey! Sounds like my kinda cooking! :D I've had some fairly epic food-related fails myself, and my most topical one was trying to make a romantic dinner for Valentine's Day last year. Candles = romantic when they're NOT lit directly under the smoke alarm. *winces at the memory*

I keep telling myself that it's just that every place I've lived has a super sensitive smoke alarm, but no.

Candles = romantic when they're NOT lit directly under the smoke alarm.

Eeek. Yeah. Open flames and smoke alarms don't get along well. I only light a candle once a year (winter solstice) and am so frigging paranoid about snuffing all sources of flame smokelessly. Last thing anyone needs in the building is fire alarms going off after midnight. :-)
