Should I have more cream biscuits for breakfast? If I eat will I throw up?

This reminds me of the classic Jewish "herring" joke.

BCM, I will pocket ride with you, I recently did a very small bit of writing to T and it was awkward and embarrassing and also immensely helpful. I hope your T is compassionate and responsive.

Or that was how the book printed it. They were all twins except poor clarinda at the end.

Eta: I had excellent pancakes for breakfast. Then I slept. Now I am watching other people spoil my cats.

... and one of them Sir Michael Carmichael Zut ...

I think our town is getting an IKEA on the weekend they had pop up down on the town beach. I really hope so. Nothing like wandering through a store

He is always compassionate and responsive and bewildered.

Yep. Just steam - won't have to clean up. But basically yes, it's way more fun that way... own kitchen is boring. And I don't have cats you can irritate with bubbles
