Belcher of the Hour

It's arriiiiived! It's arriiiiiived! (to be vocalized as if by Dr. Frankenstein)

Pressies from home from Paul! Maurizio and Hiroko are mightily impressed (both by Beneficence of Paul AND the massive 17lb package) and totally believe me now that American peanut butter really IS different. We have had a brief comparison sampling. I am further convinced of the imperial superiority of Peter Pan peanut butter. And Peter Pan, the character is of British origin, so it's not really American imperialism exactly :)

Am not so convinced of American media superiority, though. The Times is a truly woeful publication. hee hee.

And we have a 6-inch skillet, a muffin tin (both outstanding Lodge products!), begniet mix (God only knows HOW i am going to make those decently), Community coffee, Aunt Jemima and Bayou Magic! And, then this one time....

Never mind.

This is very distracting when one must finish one's intonation assessment for Phonology.
