Yup, Yorkshire Pudding if you use beef drippings, Popovers if you use butter. I need to make popovers again when I have my life back.

Don't think I've ever had Yorkshire pudding, but while a popover and a Dutch baby are essentially the same thing (eggs, milk, and flour) I find them to be pretty different eating experiences. The middle of a Dutch baby is a different texture and much heavier.

This:

Versus this (spoiler simply because it is a big picture):

Spoiler:

Saturday morning's when I was a kid I'd make on that size while our parents were still in bed and we'd pour half a bag (it seemed) of sugar over it and the three of us would eat the whole thing while watching cartoons.

Obviously, this was before we'd reached the ages that my sisters and I decided we'd rather kill each other than watch TV together.

I got to talk for a minute with Mike Farrell. I have now met 2 members of the MASH cast. I used to climb into bed with my mom and watch MASH with her.

I am by no means a celeb chaser, or one to go gaga when meeting a famous person. It was just nice to be able to say Hi and visit for a couple of minutes.

Ah Hunnicutt, always the voice of reason, except when he was egging Hawkeye on

Hey, I've got an idea. Why don't I wait until the hottest part of the hottest day of the month, THEN decide to take walk to the market.

All you effers who were begging for the June Gloom to end, I hate you a little right now.

Yes, the heat is here damnit! Thurston had to wear his cool coat to take a walk on 2nd Street. Of course some idiot had to comment loudly to her friends about how one shouldn't make their dog wear stupid-looking clothing. She should be glad I was not in a surly mood because she wasn't so attractively dressed herself.

Very cool, Mousey Girl.

I haven't met many Hollywood types but I also have met two members of the MASH cast. I've met William Christopher and Gary Burghoff. Those two guys are the absolute soul of generosity and that is no gush, just the truth. For many years, they have raised money for a group home for autistic adults.

I'm smiling now, just thinking about those two.

So. My beagle son Jack went AWOL. We have a good fence around the back yard. He was out there for a few minutes and then ... he wasn't there. Had someone let him in the house? A frantic search didn't find Jack.

Then the hubbo happened to look out the front door: Jack! He had somehow gotten out of the back ... but how?
Had he jumped on top of the compost bin and jumped over the fence???

No. He took the traditional route: he dug his way out. We found the hole and stopped it up with a big rock. I can't tell you how green about the gills this makes me.

Sooooo.....I'm stuck at REI waiting for Lani to end this episode of Shopping Hell. Had to go inside because it is 426 degrees out.

Smart phone not really helping though obviously it facilitates bitching.

MASH is one of my fave childhood memories, and now when I watch it, I get MORE of the jokes than I did before.

I wish I was with you - I would have made a comment to the effect of 'one dog in a coat discussing another dog in a coat'

I sense a concreted back-yard coming up. If you paint it green it looks more natural.

*swings a watch in front of Alex on a chain* "You looooove shopping. Shopping is your friend."

BTW: what's REI ?

So I'm at Vons last night and there's a huge confrontation between some kid and an undercover guy and the manager. They're yelling at the guy to just leave the store or they're calling the cops. Apparently they caught him shoplifting some whiskey. Kid won't leave and is yelling and wanting a manager (manger was there) and on and on. Finally the security gaurd points out to him he's still wearing his blockbuster uniform and nametag so they can eaisly find him. He finally left - idiot.
