The Official Adam Pascal Love Thread, part nine — Page 143

True Confession: despite using her recipes quite often, I'd never watched Martha's show. And it's probably best...she was so awkward. Cybele looked far more relaxed and natural. I love that all Martha could say about the cookies was they were "interesting." The boys were adorable (especially Monte's head peeking in the camera during Barry's segment!)

I don't know what to do with myself...I haven't had a free night in a week!

This is so cute! She seems wonderful, and it makes me hate all of the people who say mean things about her even more.

Adam and the kids are beyond adorable.

Does Martha always seem this disinterested in her guests?

Martha's a bitch. Graargh.

Cybele was great. Very talkative, very cute. The poor children looked as terrified as everyone said they looked, although Lennon was pretty smiley. So cute.

Yeah, Martha is totally not the best interviewer. Like, she almost has this, "I can do it better" attitude. Cybele was very cute, though.

I find that Martha stumbles over her words a lot. And I'm pretty sure she doesn't actually listen to what her guests are saying. Yesterday, Drew Lachey was on, and she asked if his daughter knew her alphabet yet. He was like, "Uh, she's three months old." And he had JUST said her age before she asked.

Though it has nothing to do with allergies, another thing Cybele has done in her cookbook is eliminate refined cane sugar. She uses honey and maple instead. She feels it's healthier.

Allie, be careful with the substitutions-- I find I have to cut back on other liquids in the recipie if I'm using a liquid type of sweetener.

Another option is turbinado sugar-- or "sugar in the raw". I don't think any kind of sugar is really "good" for you, but some is less bad, more natural. Also, I think honey, maple syrup and turbinado sugar doesn't cause quite the spike in blood sugar that refined sugar does, so the "highs" and "crashes" aren't as bad.

Excellent idea, Allie!

Maple apple pie?! I'm sold! You must...you just must...

That actually has a lot of good recipes on it, scrolling through...muchas gracias!

Aw, skittles, what's your professional opinion on his behavior?

I agree about the LJ people -- I responded to one of them.

I had a fish sandwich from Wendy's as my dinner. So healthy, I know.

*phew* I made it through school without becoming Swiss cheese!

They had us all enter the building through one entrance, which leads into the main gym. We all lined up our backpacks in a row and stood a few feet behind while a dog sniffed them all. When everyone was cleared, we were free to go. Overall, it was a pretty normal day, except for the police presence in the halls. But our idiot principal made an announcement 8th period that the "shoot" scheduled for today was postponed to Tuesday, but he meant a movie shoot in the TV studio after school. Idiot.

One thing that was interesting was that our project that we had to present was about Nazi propaganda, and two girls in our group made a collage of Nazi recruitment posters in the shape of a swastika, which began this whole shooting threat ordeal when one was spraypainted on a door to the building a couple of weeks ago. She was so afraid that the police would question her, but she explained that it was for a project and it was okay.
