3 things

-->

Food: I made Hezz and Kristen's pumpkin cream cheese muffins and

NOT MOO'S BETHIE'S BETHIE'S BETTTHHIIEEEEEZZZZZZ!!!!! pumpkin blondies for that dinner last weekend and they were both eff.ing. am.az.ing. I am officially addicted to baking with pumpkin. And unofficially 870 pounds heavier since Saturday.

 

Confession: Once in a while I go on one of those local rate-your-teacher websites and leave anonymous positive comments for my husband. He pretends he doesn't care about things like that, but I've caught him reading them a couple of times.

 

Random: I have never watched an episode of Mad Men, Pushing Daisies, ER,  Dexter, Bones, Brothers and Sisters, True Blood, Chuck or Weeds... there are more. I know I need to watch one or two of these, but I feel like I watch too much tv already.

Re: 3 things

  • You really need to watch Pushing Daisies.  The whole series is streaming on Netflix, it's only about 26 episodes from start to finish, and it's the most splendiforous show in the history of spendiforousness.

  • You could skip Chuck.  It's a cute show, but I don't think you're really missing anything by not having seen it.

    I can't believe Pushing Daisies got cancelled but Outsourced gets a whole season.

  • I would skip Dexter. It's one of those shows that I'll watch (because my husband likes it) but if I never saw another episode I wouldn't feel like I was missing out.

    That is sweet that you leave anonymous comments for your husband.

  • I don't know why I haven't watched Pushing Daisies. Perhaps I haven't yet because I am certain that I will love it and then be heartbroken when I get to the end of the 26 episodes, knowing that there won't be any more.
  • I can't decide if 2 is sweet or redonkulous.

    Not enough racial insensitivity.

  • Those muffins are the stuff of dreams.

    Of your listed shows, I think Mad Men is the only true must see. Chuck is cute, ER is too much to take on at this point, Dexter is creppy but good. I don't watch any of the rest. We watch too much TV.

    I think that's sweet. :)

    Of the shows you listed, I've only actively watched Mad Men and ER and have passively (been in the room while someone else watches) watched Dexter and Weeds. Mad Men is A++++++++, ER is great if you have a block of time but it's a LOT. Of the passive ones, I would choose Dexter over Weeds.

    I think it's probably a little of both.

     

    I'm not really interested in watching any of the shows I listed except Mad Men and Pushing Daisies. I need to cut something else out though, since I do not need more hours of tv in my life. Some of the mtv trash I watch could definitely go.
