Saitaina,

Thanks for the response!  
I can't wait to try the chocolate eclair recipe!  

As for reading, I just printed out about 145 pages of the last three 
chapters of some of the fics I'm reading (DV9 by Cassie Claire; The 
Triangle Prophecy and The Lost Generation both by Barb Purdom).
Now, if I can only figure out a way to keep from reading all this 
*before* Sunday (we're driving up to Vermont, about a 5-6 hour drive 
from here), I'll be all set!!

P.S.,
I've just tried to "season" the new wrought iron pans we bought for 
cooking: I've so far set off the smoke alarm twice, and scared my 
husband to actually getting out of bed to come see what all the smoke 
was about!
