Sure! I scrounged it up and typed it into my computer this morning, realizing I didn’t have any recourse if I lost the paper. Here it is:

Chewy Molasses cookies, from a recipe scrawled in fading pencil on a Home Depot Installation Services notepad. I have no memory of where this recipe came from, but the paper has been handled so many times it is soft and pliable like a napkin. Makes the best cookies ever.

Wow, this week’s Talk Page Highlights is a ride! Thanks for that!

Whoa. I can’t imagine wanting to see that part again. I saw SPR in the theatre one time, and it was such a viscerally unpleasant experience I will never watch it again. 

It was kind of alarming how entertaining that “game” was. I’m sad they took the bathtub out of the tour, it was quite the adventure to find it. I can’t imagine working in that place. Fire code violation central. Every staircase was full of boxes.

Fantastic article. I had no idea there was still so much pushback around accessible facilities. It’s really disgraceful. 

Toledo is a weird conservative hotbed compared to other cities in Ohio. Maybe because it is so near to Michigan.....

Thank you for writing this. The love of Chalet Sauce is completely inexplicable to me. I have lived north of Toronto for 15 years now, and I will never forget the moment I first tasted the dreaded Chalet Sauce. I was excited, because the commercials made it look so delicious, and I was looking forward to dunking my…

I found this book to be better than the first one, which seems almost impossible, since I loved the first one deeply. Maybe because all of these stories are brand new. The chapters swing wildly from hilarious to heartbreaking, sometimes from one page to the other, and she is still genius at taking a small human…

I really enjoyed this, such a fun read! And that lamp is the find of the century, truly. Your space looks great!

I had completely forgotten about Stargate Universe. Wow. I really think that they missed their audience with that one, because it was incredible, but no one knew about it. 

Oof. Thanks for reminding me. 

She does get a bit bored with “people talking” movies, as in “Is this just people talking all the time?” so jumping ahead might be in order. Thanks for the input!

Interesting points, thank you! The “more effective” disaster question is the one I keep asking myself if she can handle. She’s my movie-watching kid, so she is pretty sophisticated when it comes to that, but I don’t want to emotionally scar her. I have no problem with nudity for her, so that bit’s fine, but I had…

I actually haven’t seen Titanic since the 90s, so I can’t even judge whether it holds up for me or not (and I would love to share it with my kids, but how old is old enough? I have 9 y.o. who has seen every Marvel movie except Deadpool, could she handle it?) but I recently rewatched Good Will Hunting and that movie is…

See, it worked for me, since we had seen him grow and change in the therapy scenes, but that moment, when he says, “Yeah, I know,” you can see that he is still tossing off that statement as though it were a platitude. But when RW’s character keeps repeating it, making him actually hear the words being said, it changes…

Gayffindor might be my favorite.

These are also great for music stands, where you can’t adjust while you are playing, so you need both pages to be illuminated. 

I actually really enjoyed Dirk Gently, particularly the second season, although it was more of, as you say, accepting it as its own thing rather than as Dirk Gently. 

(This is completely off topic, but I just finished binge-watching Halt and Catch Fire and wanted to thank you for your thoughtful reviews! I really enjoyed reading them as I went along.)
