Ralphs down near me (like a Safeway) has TL cake. I had some last week or so and it was pretty good (though I thought it would be more soaked, instead of in a pool of milky stuff).

Thanks, c172, we used to have Ralph's up here but they all closed a few years ago. I'm going to check out the grocery chains and see if they do tres leches. Those sheet cakes just don't compare.

So, you're saying you want Ralph "disappeared"?

Awww I miss Ralph's. I used to fucks with the Ralph's off the 54 in Chula Vista.

Is it not there anymore? It was like in Bay Terrace, a couple miles up the 54.

Could be. I don't know the South Bay too well. I'm just wondering what it means to "fucks" with something.
Did you fuck with their heads and drive in how VONS is better?

Oh haha. Internet speak. I used to visit their establishment quite often, my good sir.

Clarinet lesson after work. After the lesson I dropped off my music and instrument at home and went out to buy some binoculars to use in my stargazing adventures.
When I finally got home from the shopping expedition, I made a cup of Vietnamese coffee (not-so-secret ingredient: Sweetened condensed milk). I then noticed a coffee filter I had left on the kitchen counter earlier, a reminder to filter a batch of cold-brew coffee I had prepared yesterday. After filtering out all the grounds I had about a litre of coffee extract in a jug in the fridge -- and three different sets of coffee-making equipment drying in the dish rack (Oriental coffeemaker, cheap nylon basket filter, Melitta pour-over cone filter holder). Luckily I didn't need the vacuum pot, and my AeroPress lives at the office, so I didn't use *all* my coffeemakers.
