Welcome Bmore Sweet to the blogroll. She’s into baking — so it was only logical that I would add her to the list of Blogs I Think Are Important on the right. Mmm…baking…
So I promised someone I would make him a tiramisu, and a quick search turned up a recipe on her blog — it was fate. Karma. Whatever. Good Lord it looks like a lot of work, but I said I would do it…maybe this weekend. We’ll see.

Sorry I haven’t written much lately — I’ve been so busy with work…and life — you know how it is. Another day, another adventure. Another cake that needs to be baked, another crisis that needs to be averted. Yikes. And “yay!” at the same time. I wonder sometimes if life is simply a series of hoops we’re required to jump through…and once in a while we’re allowed to take a detour?
But all is well — for now….knock on wood.
I hear a cake calling — must dash.

…how much it disgusts me to see men driving around the neighborhood, scanning for hookers? Or trying to pick me up as I walk up the boulevard?
AH posted about it today, and I started thinking about all of those women…sitting at home, thinking their idiot husbands are “at the store” or “working late” when they’re actually cruising around our neighborhood looking for a cheap blowjob. And it made me very glad to be single.
And yes, I really did get a mention in the hooker forum. Ick. They think I’m a yuppie. HA HA HA HA HA.

Some tidbits and links:
1. JJT finally has dining room chairs. Yes, this is newsworthy. Apparently he only has two, and I will keep you updated as to the status of the other two as information becomes available.
2. I am not closing the cafe. In fact, I hope to stay here until they drag my fat ass out in a pine box. Thanks to the generosity and support of friends and neighbors, I was able to take care of some outstanding issues, and I owe them a party. That will happen before the summer is out, I promise.
3. Smith & Wesson thinks it’s a good idea for women to own pink guns. I think it’s bullshit, frankly, and wouldn’t be caught dead (no pun intended) with one. I’m more partial to this little beauty.
4. Someone thought it would be a good idea to grab me and try to drag me down an alley. Unfortunately, he quickly found just how bad this idea was and at the very least has a fat lip…and perhaps one or two missing teeth. I’m fine and no worse for the wear, although I’m still a little mad about it. I could have broken a heel. Or ripped my jeans. Dammit.
5. I baked a coconut cake for the cafe. Please come in and eat it so I’m not tempted. Thanks.

This morning, a neighbor who lives on McHenry (between Otterbein and Scott) was mugged. The mugger was described as a black male, 50-55 years old, 5′8″ or 9″ tall, dark skin and short hair. He was also walking with a fake limp and used a cane…which he then used to hit the victim before snatching her purse. This happened at approximately 9 AM.

So I’m not the greatest party planner in the world. Tonight I ended up going to Carroll Station for dinner and then hanging out with H & A at their house. And now I’m home baking a lemon bundt cake even though it’s almost 12:30.
I will, however, plan some kind of celebratory thing…soon. I promise.

I know it’s short notice, but don’t make plans for Saturday evening. I might have something to celebrate. I’m just sayin’…..

…I haven’t been in much of a writing mood lately, as you can well imagine. I will resume my blog once things settle down a bit. Pray that everything works out, please.
