Hi!

[LaraMN]

It's sunny!:bounce:
We're grilling for company tonight, and I'm making a great big New York cheesecake. :9 Anybody else have plans?

1. Hi!

It's raining again here in CT. I have to work later. That is my only plan!

:hi:

[LaraMN]

2. Maybe the nice weather will work it's way your direction.

We had a very long run of nasty weather until yesterday- makes me appreciate the good stuff alot more! I plan to do some serious gardening today.

[bigwillq]

6. I hope so.

It's been like this for over a week. :(

[miss_american_pie]

3. I'm about to go vote

And it's raining again, so the kids will be driving me insane all day. :hi:

[LaraMN]

4. What are you voting on?

Sending you sanity vibes! I know how much they're needed with stir-crazy kids. :crazy:

[miss_american_pie]

5. Primaries

First time with electronic voting machines. It'll be great fun trying to convince the 4 year old it isn't a video game. :eyes:

7. Hi Lara!

:hi:

[LaraMN]

10. HI Billy!

How's my favorite smooth-scalped buddy?

[billyskank]

13. I am okay thanks!

And how are you? :hug:

[LaraMN]

15. Alright, thanks.

I'm avoiding some editing I need to do on some stuff I wrote. I have issue with commas that I do not want to deal with. Keeping busy?

[billyskank]

18. It could be worse. It could be apostrophes.

;)

I am trying to get a bubble sort to work at this very minute. :)

[LaraMN]

20. I hate misuse of apostrophes, so I"ve become pretty careful with those.

What is a bubble sort?

[billyskank]

25. Indeed so

:P

A bubble sort is the simplest method for sorting a list. Basically you compare each member of the list with its neighbour (only on one side), and if it is greater than its neighbour then you swap them round. Keep doing this until there is nothing that needs swapping.

Easier to say than to write in code though. :crazy:

8. So how *do* you grill a cheesecake?

Inquiring minds... :+

[LaraMN]

11. Lol! Yuck!

I'm sure there IS a way to do it, but I'll be going the traditional baking route.

[kay1864]

22. I used to have a recipe that called for

*five* blocks of cream cheese--2 1/2 lbs total. Yum!

That recipe was hell on my poor little portable mixer though. Now I've got a KitchenAid--a Real Man's mixer :rofl:

[LaraMN]

24. Mine calls for four blocks and sour cream!

I don't have a KitchenAid either, but I sure want one!

[tigereye]

9. voting and working

the weather here is seriously miserable, but I guess that's ok since it has been beautiful the last few weeks.

(it's really cold, though, upper 40s.)

have a nice day outside!

[LaraMN]

12. Upper 40's...

:scared: That's about what we've rebounded from. Hang in there!

[tigereye]

17. yeah I figured it was heading our way

lots of rain for the plants, though.

[LaraMN]

21. Yes!

Things have greened up quite nicely, here. A couple more weeks and the lilacs will fill in enough to obscure my view of the neighbors' yards (particularly the crazy crap lady who takes people's junk from their curbs and piles it all in her yard.)

[Haole Girl]

14. Hi

:) No plans, just work.

[LaraMN]

16. Well, I suppose that IS a plan.

Albeit, not a very exciting one for you, I suppose!:-)

[Haole Girl]

19. Well, I must confess, I am getting my hair colored

I hope it goes well!

[LaraMN]

23. Oh! What color?

A nice fresh color job is quite a pick-me-up.

[Haole Girl]

26. I'm going to go for whatever the stylist says will cover gray!

My hair is brunette, and I already tried golden tones, but the gray is still going strong. Sometimes, I think I should just give it up.

[SparklyJr]

27. I think everyone is, in some way or another.

[anarch]

28. nope, no plans...what time should I be there?

:D

[LaraMN]

30. 6:00! We're serving pork chops, chicken, veggie burgers, BEER

(of course!) corn on the cob, some kind of potato thing, and my cheesecake!:toast: :bounce:

[Callalily]

29. Yeah,

I'm planning to come to you place for cheesecake. :rofl:

[LaraMN]

31. CHERRY cheesecake!

:9

[jukes]

33. *DAMN*

your cherry cheesecakes, LaraMN. & i have to go to the hardware store, which is VERY near the bakery...
x(

[Callalily]

34. Oh yummy! (n/t)

[mdmc]

32. Ho!

Rain

[MissMillie]

35. Sunny? what's that?

One more cloudy/rainy day, and I may go mad.....

[LaraMN]

36. I'm nearly convinced that during our lengthy run of foul weather

the town paper mill pumped out clouds of serotonin, to prevent the local residents from going collectively insane and killing each other.
