I can't possibly be out of topics, on my second day! That would be entirely too pathetic.
I guess I will just ramble a bit, and see what bubbles up from the dank cauldron of my mind.
I did intend to pass along this link: www.goodsearch.com. It is a Yahoo! search engine, but they donate half of the ad revenue that they receive to a charity of your choice. By using their search engine, rather than Google (sorry, Crevice) or generic Yahoo!, you can support the non-profit of your choice. It comes to something like a penny a search. I am personally responsible for the Atlanta Humane Society receiving upwards of nine cents this week. At this rate, they can count on almost $5 this year. My philanthropy is reaching Carnegie-esque levels. The fine print is that they only get the money annually, but every little bit helps, I guess.

I am feeling grateful that I didn't take a lot of crap about last night's great butter experiment.
Since it went so well, I am going to further confess that I found some compound, or flavored, butter recipes online tonight, and they sound fabulous! How about ginger-peach butter on a bran muffin, orange cranberry butter on French toast or herbed butter on grilled steaks?

SGBD is sleeping here on the foot of my bed. She is snoring quietly, and her fur is ruffling slightly in the breeze of the ceiling fan. While I was in Oklahoma City last week, she was an overnight guest at Wagalot. Since she was looking a little disreputable, and the weather is warming up, I had her groomed and her fur trimmed to summer length. I know this will come as a shock, but I think that she looks absolutely adorable!

OK. Clearly not a lot on my mind this evening. Technically, it is just after midnight, but I am still counting this post toward Wednesday. So there!

OK, so, a couple of things.
I have no recollection of why I sent you "edacious" as word of the day. I don't ordinarily visit Dictionary.com. It was certainly not meant as a slight; more likely a recognition that some people enjoy eating more than others. Enjoy. Take pleasure from. There's no intended judgment about whether anyone's doing too much of it (there's that evil super power again). For that matter, I'd include myself in that number. Plus, it's just a fun word. Say it out loud. It's just fun.

And I love the Carlyle quote.
I promised a couple of things, and two I shall deliver. Has it occurred to you that it's a wee bit cruel to refer to a friend by a physical deformity? That somebody with a literally pointy head might be sensitive to that fact. A slightly hurt aside, indeed.
Duly noted.
