The first layer of The Cherpumple is baking.

That would be a hilarious thing to take to a pot luck

I have wanted to make one of those for a potluck at work...I think that I just might have to, sometime in the new year. :D

George, have you  heard of "inchezonya?"

The photos make the beginning look great, Laura. Can't wait to see the final product.


Um, we've run into a little difficulty.

I don't know what the DP's contribution will be.  Probably sarcasm.

The apartment situation gets weirder and weirder: the super is the one who locked the apartment, but fifteen minutes ago I heard footsteps upstairs. I went to check and found the broker showing it to a couple. I told him about lasy night's visitors and he claimed to know nothing about it.

On my way down to the market I ran into the super and told him I had just seen the broaker, who left the apartment unlocked. Steve, the very super super of our building, relocked it and told me to call him any time I hear footsteps in the building. I learned today as well that we have three vacancies: Apt 5C, 4C, and 4A. I'd kill for 4A since it's huge, but it's going for around $2400/month. I'm guessing the one above me is around $1700. I think they'll be empty for a while. Who can afford them?

Well, the sides of the cake bake faster than the cake over the pie.
And there was trouble getting it out of the pan with the sides intact.

Today was such a nice warm day I even had shorts on. 

I finely was able to stain my glider.  Something I've been wanting to do all year but was always to tired to get around to.  I am paying for it bit now.  My right hand and arm are killing me. 

I hate arthritis.

I've got my spinach dip in a bread bowl and dill crackers ready to go, found a white elephant and just have to shower and find something to wear.   I've already eaten more than my diet allows today, but it's a holiday.  I lost 2 pounds this week and will get back on track tomorrow

I'd at least keep tabs on how long 4A stays empty and then make an offer.  They might accept less from someone who has already proved themselves to be a good renter.

Well the fireworks have already started.  I hear the booms.

While I was staining the glider, I kept hearing sirens.  One ended quite close to the house.  I'm guessing up at Parsons and MLK.  Why to people have to act so stupid when it's a Holiday.  Don't they understand that the best gift they could give someone is the chance to spend the next one with their family?

The broker was an older man; he was not one of the group.

Our state legislature, in their great wisdom, has made fireworks legal in the state of Arizona. Arizona. Desert. Where it is very dry in the summertime. And a tossed cigarette butt can start a wildfire that will burn thousands of acres. Good move.

Of course this problem isn't mentioned in the recipe ;)  It does make sense thinking about it.

I'm envious.  This morning while putting on my many layers of clothing I was looking at shorts and wishing I could wear them.

That's good.  Now he needs to be reminded to lock the door when he leaves.

They are still illegal here in Florida--However--you only need to sign a release that you are using them because you are trying to scare away crows, squirrels, etc.   So for some strange reason, every New Years Eve and 4th of July the critters come out in droves and need to be scared away.....yeah, right.  ;)

  Thanks, Jane.  I took a couple pain pills and soaked my hand in the wax bath.  It's already feeling a bit better.  I just have a hard time when I use that hand a lot.
