mmmm cookies

I made over 150 christmas cookies today. All of them spiced spritz cookies (you know the kind that you put in a cookie gun or press or whatever you want to call it.) Next on the list: lemon sugar cookies, plain sugar cookies, gingerbread cookies, chocolate covered cherries, regular russian tea cakes, and orange-coconut tea cakes, and unspiced spritz cookies. This is going to be a long week.

My mom was looking through her recipe book and found a recipe she had cut out of the San Francisco chronicle the day I was born. She went into labor around 8 in the morning and waited around the hospital until she could have a cesarean around 1. She's never made the recipe (some variation of gingerbread.) What I'm wondering though is when on earth she had time to you know, read the newspaper and rip out a recipe while she was in labor. wtf. (for the record she doesn't remember either.)

[livejournal.com profile] ashlle1 was asking about downloading Stargate SG-1 the other day and I ended up uploading the pilot episode and another of my favorite eps from the first season. I've only just started watching SG-1 (damn you SGA and your sinkhole tendencies!) so I have a lot to catch up on. I don't know if any of you guys are thinking about getting into it but you can find some pretty solid torrents of each season in 80mb/episode packets over here. Here are the two episodes I shared with [livejournal.com profile] ashlle1 in case anyone else wants them:
[ Stargate SG1 - 101 - Children Of The Gods ] -- avi, 156mb - double episode

[ Stargate SG1 - 118 - Tin Man ] -- avi, 80mb
Completely unrelated to the Stargate fandom. The other day I read a Harry/Draco post-Half Blood Prince story called Sweet by [livejournal.com profile] lydiabennet and it left me craving new Harry Potter stories. Surely there have been some decent length post HBP stories written by now, Harry/Draco or Harry/Snape, any recs?

Heh. I totally have no idea what it would even be like, and I hope to god I don't ever find out. You are a much braver woman than I. (nine months of hormone induced torture seems really overwhelming!)

Pregnancy is not that horrible, it's a pain but not like nine months of cramps or anything.

However, the fact that your life is not your own for at least ten years, and even then, you're still responsible for food, clothes, getting them to school, dealing with grades and bullies and heartbreak... That's the hard part.

Yes there's definitely that too. I don't even want to get a cat because I'm not sure I could responsibly make a 10-20 year investment like that right now *g*
