How awesome is this?!
The challah is in the oven...
Just 15-20 more minutes left. The kitchen is clean. My home smells incredible. Can’t wait to taste the results!
Boyfriend's thoughts on the debate
“the only thing that came out of this debate is that I now have a man-crush on Biden”
Future plans
Must research welsh rarebit.
And now a word
cityofotherlylove:
And now a word from our NY correspondent, Alejandra. She has been working tirelessly in the field this evening and we’ve been anxiously awaiting word of her coverage of everything BUT the VP candidate’s debate.
Alejandra?
“Ooh… Unfaithful is on Lifetime. She’s putting on sexy new underwear. oooh and no bra! He’s stuck in meetings. She’s running around town with him.”
Thank...
When guys cry...
Eugene: at one point biden almost cried he was talking about how he knows what it’s like to be a single parent and having a kid you’re not sure is gonna make it he held it together.. barely
me: awww i like when men cry. …like that time hillary clinton broke down at that press conference
Eugene: lol that was awesome
Changed my mind...
Unfaithful is on Lifetime. She’s putting on sexy new underwear. oooh and no bra! He’s stuck in meetings. She’s running around town with him.
Watching last half hour of School of Rock
While the dough rises...
Leafing through my new issue of Gourmet. Thinking my future challah will be great with cream cheese. Still not decided about extra pumpkin…
Can't decide...
Pumpkin panna cotta or pumpkin scones? Want to use this 1/2 cup of pumpkin left…
Thanks to my NY correspondent,
cityofotherlylove:
Thanks to my NY correspondent, Alejandra, I’m now all set to blog from my phone as I listen to the debate via NPR in my car.
Yes! Moe is on. PA traffic is no match for this lady. No match!
Pumpkin challah dough is kneading. Smells incredible! Am toying with the idea of making scones with the other half of the can… I’m such a maverick.
Just dropped and broke my hot chocolate pot. Wondering what Palin’s outfit looks like…
The plan for tonight
1. Bake a loaf of pumpkin pie challah
2. Read my brand new issue of Gourmet.
3. Maybe flip around some non-debate channels.
4. Eat dinner
Ten Other things that will be on TV tonight...
1. Tune in to ABC Family to catch the last hour and a half of the highly acclaimed film, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, starring the blonde Gossip Girl and Ugly Betty.
2. The “CW” isn’t afraid to pit a totally brand NEW episode of something called “Supernatural” against Palin & Biden.
3. Telemundo is showing a program called the “Debate...

NOT Rocking the Vote
As part of my continued effort to NOT rock the vote, I will be live-blogging (well, Live-Twittering) NOT watching the debate tonight. That’s right! While all of you are watching the debates I will be here to keep you posted on the other stuff that is going on. I’ll watch other channels! I’ll probably bake some bread! I may even look out the window, occasionally! Who knows what...
