We have open letters, but there are times it's more of a "note to self" scenario. So I thought I'd give us a place to put them.
I'll start!
Note to Self:
Baking Powder and Baking Soda are not interchangeable. That is why there are 2--because they're completely different things. You actually know this. So why are you so surprised when your baking flops? ???

NTS: Do not drink espresso after eating spicy curry or Mexican food or similar. Unless you really really enjoy serious indigestion, that is.
NTS 2: When making hummus, put the garlic in, stupid. No wonder it's flat and tasteless. Geez, some people.
NTS: If you run your herb-filled sleep-inducing pillow thru the washing machine, you can't really expect it to work after that.
Nts: Try not to let co-workers bother you. At the end of the day, just go home and leave that shit behind you.
NTS: Call Cams tonight. ;)
NTS:
Do your homework and write those damn letters to the vegweb peeps!!!!
Nts: Try not to let co-workers bother you. At the end of the day, just go home and leave that shit behind you.
Easier said than done, Cammers. Yeah, I know, you can learn to, but it takes practice. It's taken me literally years.
NTS: Control yourself during your Food Science class. Today, when you took your field trip to the butcher shop, everybody thought you were about to puke.
Also. Stop eating fruits and veggies so you can get sick and not have to smell the meet on the trip to Oscar Meyer.
Note to self:
While you were slick not going to your last class of the day...your classmates were taking Test #2---REMEMBER!!?? aahh!
Note to Self:
Don't pansy out when you see Eddie's boss's girlfriend tomorrow. When you great her, actually form the words that you have gone over and over in your head. It should go like this:
Me: So, are you glad to not be working at T anymore?
C: Oh, it was fine
Me: Well, at least you don't have to work with Eddie anymore.
C: What do you mean?
Me: He's a self righteous asshole that plays with his clients' hearts for money and then kicks them to the curb so he doesn't have to pay them back.
Then, she will talk to J later and tell him all about it. Word will get around, and Eddie will be fucked like he deserves. Don't let your heart keep you from retaliating this time.
NTS:
Feel this moment, RIGHT NOW? Where you have finished the work on your to-do list for the day, worked out for an hour, are full from food throughout the day, spent quality time with the DH, and gotten lost in Brahms 2? THIS is what happens when you are productive. Enjoy this moment. There's more with this came from if you just stay on task.
NTS
Stop cooking complex foods only after midnight.
Pretend you are a gremlin. No food after midnight.
You still have homework and a test to study for. GET ON IT.
Note to Self: Stop trying to play four-suit Spider Solitaire online.
It does. not. work.
You can. not. win. Hell, you can't even get one suit to play out.
Stop it.
Now.
STOP.
Note to Self:
Of course your keyboard is sticky. You keep eating fruit while on VW. Simple solution: don't eat at the keyboard.
note to self: defrost your chickpeas before making hummus next time, it'll be a hell of a lot easier!

OWW, I :)>>> you. That made me giggle.
Note to self:
Stop crushing on all the cute green and hazel eyed girls. Stop crushing on the geeky adorable girls as well. And for the love of god, stop, please stop crushing on the ones that are both. I know you can't help yourself. Stop it. Stop it right now.
Note to self:
Don't make changes to a recipe that works. If the GF pancake came out gorgeous the first time, why mess with it? Why sub in milk-and-water for the milk? Why leave out the sugar? OK, lower calorie pancakes, but those aren't pancakes. They stuck all over the pan and wouldn't flip for toffee.
You're dumb. You maybe saved 30 cals. but the pancakes came out crap. Tasty but shapeless mush.
NTS: just. get. rid. of. it.
Note to Self: If it works, don't mess with it.
If it doesn't work...you been messin' with it, haven't ya!
Note to Self: Stop trying to play four-suit Spider Solitaire online.
