I'm already a horrible warning. The only question is how far I'll go with it.

How far can you go before someone tries to stop you?
How can they stop my plan if I don't know what it is either?
A plan that has no basis in reality cannot be stopped because even reality has no idea what the hell just happened.
I have never had gingerbread. I wonder what it tastes like.
It's a pretty simple recipe. You could just cut strips instead of using a cookie cutter.
Or, wait until after Xmas when the gingerbread houses go on sale. Those are more decorative though, so they're not great.
Or, wait until tomorrow and let me see how mine turn out. Cookies have a pretty good shelf life so I could send some.

The first batch I didn't roll thin enough, lol. These cookie cutters came with press down imprints, the ones that were pressed down harder came out better.
Pretty soft fresh from the oven, should harden as they cool. Taste is pretty good, I didn't have an orange so I tried using tangerine zest. Can't taste the citrus too much. Fnu, PM me if you want some, I've got plenty.
I went to the library today and I got a book I had on hold for over a month and some DVDs.
No late fees nowadays for overdue materials so that's cool.

It tastes like chai, if it's a chai that's made with ginger.
It kind of blows my mind when I remember that the year Sony stopped selling Betamax tapes and the year the last VCR (for VHS tapes, not Betamax ones) were both the same year despite VHS having handily beaten Betamax in the videotape format war.
And that year was literally 2016 too, that's not that long ago.

Somebody was still buying them.

It wasn't me. I never got into Betamax.

Probably for people with legacy equipment that used the tapes that they didn't see any need to upgrade to something new.
For a while, professional grade betamax is what television stations used. Some advertisers would send us a SVHS and we'd be like, what are we supposed to do with this?
Sooo, yeah, VHS won the consumer base hands down, but beta won the professional base.
It does surprise me that either hang around until 2016.
Still, I do know some people who are avid second hand market buyers of VHS to this day. Not me...but there are people.

Power went out at work, the electric company won't send a truck out to look on the roof in this wind, and we're shutting down for the week. Half a day early start on holiday vacation, woo!
My dad collected 8-tracks in the late '80s and early '90s, because when he'd find them at yard sales or whatever, they were literally a dime a dozen.
My dad still has boxes of 8-tracks and VHS tapes sitting around, because he's a packrat and never gets rid of anything. I don't think he even has a working VHS or 8-track player anymore. Emphasis on "working" because I'm sure he has at least three of each, but.
