Cooking mishaps and links

Anyway, this evening I made flan for the office Christmas party tomorrow. Or maybe I should say, I tried to make flan and ended up making custard. (What's the difference, you ask? Flan - the traditional kind - has a hard caramel shell over the custard.) The reason for the change is that caramelizing sugar is a bitch to do, and my attempt at it this evening failed pretty miserably. So sorry guys, no caramel tomorrow - just custard. :(
Some interesting news stories: The Bush administration introduced a child molester as a shining example of a Bush supporter (link gacked secondhand from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jokersama) and KCTV Channel 5 claims an 80-year-old man selling lawn fertilizer is actually selling OMG EXPLOSIVES. Ahh, the incredible heights of stupidity that people can aspire to...good times, y'all.
