    That's awesome news, Mimi!

    Dear certain retailer:
    Uh, two billing cycles to get return credit is slightly ridiculous.

    Dear pot of onions:
    Caramelize faster! I'm hungry!
    At least I don't leave slime trails.

    I did! I discovered, however, that the problem wasn't sugar (or lack thereof), but the fact that the large burner on my stove has crapped out!

    The soup is now happily bubbling away on the back burner.

    Dear Petite, Skinny Mom,

    It's really not okay to laugh along with your four-year-old when he laughs at the lady with the "great big butt." Granted, maybe you were embarrassed, but by the smirk on your face, I kinda think not.

    Owlie, try sprinkling some salt into the onions next time. It sucks out the residual water and helps the sugars inside brown faster.

    Dear Channlluv
    I am sorry the mom was such a jerk. When my own tot (only 2 years old) kept telling me in his loud clear voice "Mommy look at that ugly ugly man" I was so astonished that all I could do was rush him away from the poor guy (who wasn't particularly ugly) he was too young to understand that he might hurt someone's feelings. On the other hand, I was proud that he was speaking in sentences. I don't think I smirked though, I was horrified!

    I am sorry that happened. People can be pretty pretty oblivious to others around them. Sorry I can't think of a better word then that..but I think you know what I mean. I tend to be very aware, almost to a fault. Hope you have a great day!! You rock

    Dear bike:
    Please stop giving me that look. I want to go out too, but I'm too poor to afford clothing to take you out. We'll try for later this afternoon, after I've had some tea and it's warmer than 35 degrees. Brr!

    Dear BF:
    What are you whining about? I'd give an arm to have riding-friendly weather right now!
