That thing that was on TV last night

From kightp. Thank you!

It almost aches, knowing we're *this* close to having a leader who could steer us in such a positive direction, and that there are people out there who have bought into the fear and greed (or the racism) enough to want to deny us this thing.

I'm spending the weekend canvassing for Obama. If I didn't, and Missouri went to McCain, I would not be able to live with myself.

Holy carmelized caries, Batman!

I just made butterscotch. From scratch. It is the most divine substance I think I've ever created.

Shuna explains exactly how to do it yourself.

I made some oatmeal scotchies (you know, those oatmeal cookies with butterscotch chips in 'em) the other day, and while they turned out decently, I was musing on the chips themselves. They had kind of an artificial flavor to them... no wonder. They're artificially flavored. So today I set out on a quest for homemade butterscotch. This stuff is kind of syrupy and I'm not sure how it'll work in the cookies (that is, if there's any left tomorrow), but we'll give it a shot.

Go try it yourself, okay? You can thank me later.
