Typically the episodes that center on Michael’s irrational dislike of Toby make me uncomfortable because, well, I DON’T CARE FOR RELATIONAL TENSION, but tonight’s episode wasn’t quite as hard to watch in the end since Michael couldn’t go through with the sabotage. Plus, it made me so happy to see Jim and Pam sitting in the conference room again. Why, you wonder? Well, because I have no life at all, thanks for asking!

And, as always, I enjoyed watching Dwight rock his mustard shirt.

A few favorites:

1) “So why’d you come in here?”
“To socialize. And inform.”

2) Michael’s reaction to Toby’s return? PRICELESS.

3) “Now people always return my calls because they think something horrible has happened.”

4) “…and a painting of some creepy clowns that is apparently important to the structural integrity of the building.”

5) “Get off your high horse, Richie.”

6) “Well, Mr. Kurt Russell, you’re about to be served.”

7) “I tried to be friends with him. But that is like trying to be friends with an evil snail. I feel like I die inside. I feel like Neve Campbell in Scream 2.”

8) “I love catching people in the act. That’s why I always whip open doors.”

9) “That seems awfully mean. But sometimes the ends justify the mean.”

10) Creed: “Just pretend like we’re talkin’ until the cops leave.”

11) “It’s Caprese salad.”

12) “You said you were leaving and you made liar out of all of us…and then you came back which makes you the biggest liar in the history.”

And Jim bought Pam a house.

Love them.

So much.

What did y’all think?

Today has gotten away from me, what with working this morning and then going to the little guy’s parent-teacher conference and then eating lunch and and then napping and then decorating a picture of a turkey with Skittles (don’t ask) and then perusing the Thanksgiving week grocery circulars and then calling my husband into the kitchen to announce the various stores’ prices on Land O’ Lakes butter because, you know, HE CARES.

(But Land O’ Lakes is TWO DOLLARS A POUND at Walmart this week.)

(And, as I’ve mentioned before, my mama has told me all my life that there is no substitute for Land O’ Lakes butter.)

(Which means that the low price makes me want to buy, oh, about fifty pounds of it.)

I have also done some in-depth analysis of cream cheese prices, and so far Walmart is the winner at $1.18 a block. Remember when it was 98 cents last year? Sweet, sweet memories.

And speaking of cream cheese, several people have emailed me to ask for the Captain Rodney’s Dip recipe, so I’m happy to direct you to the very best use of cream cheese that you ever did see. Or eat, as it were.

In conclusion comma I feel that I should tell you that Campbell’s cream of whatever soups are sixty cents a can at Walmart.

Somebody might need to perform a grocery circular intervention.

But it had better be quick – before I head to the store to load up on those sweet potatoes that are only twenty eight cents a pound.

See y’all tomorrow.
