"Perhaps I'm old and tired, but I always think that the chances of finding out what really is going on are so absurdly remote that the only thing to do is to say hang the sense of it and just keep yourself occupied." -Douglas Adams
So let’s say you need 2 dozen cookies for an event on Saturday. And there’s nothing going on Tuesday night so you bake them then. With an extra batch (another 2 dozen) because you know some will be eaten on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Guess what I’ be doing tonight?
