Did they bring us you any tamarind balls?
or beef patties?
You do well to flee, townspeople! I will pillage your lands and dwellings! I will burn your crops and make merry sport with your more attractive daughters! Ha ha ha! Mark my words! Ooh! Ale! I smell delicious ale!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
While not a crazy cat lady, I suppose I can do a good imitation of a crazy Jamaican-food-hoarding lady.
Pretty damned good.
I have eaten most of the patties, but there are enough tamarind balls to share with gusto. Also ackee and saltfish, if I read my fridge right.
I feel a need to clean again from top to toe, so everything is in the place where I put it, and it smells like my house, not like their house (I'm not sure how that worked).
HOWEVER, what I'm going to do is pour myself a glass of the sorrell my mother kindly made, spike it with the good rum, and lie around smiling.

it worked like this: there were two of them and one of you. There smells outnumbered yours.
Aw, you're holding out on me with patties. Am hurt.
First my friend S* held out on tamales and now this.
sniff.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
but there are enough tamarind balls to share with gusto.
yay!

Much more yay!

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Single malt whiskey. Also, some Korean dish called kim-shee, which sounds, looks, and smells awful , but is really great to eat. Also, television in German in the background. My 2005 is weirder than yours.

Kimchee is great when done right. Did your ladylove have aught to do with it being available? It is not a dish one normally associates with Switzerland.

I admit it. I bogarted the patties.
And I'd do it again. I'm that kind of hard core.
I'd forgotten Hugh Laurie was in Spooks! He's playing exactly the same personality as in House, but the magic is -- he's in a position where I can see how he gets away with it.

sigh.
we get no patty love.
so the mango bars (like lemon bars, but mango) will stay at home tomorrow.

She did. Brought it back here after her recent trip to her homeland. It has something to do with eggs, I'm told.
Tamarind balls are another thing entirely. There is no guy named Tamarind staggering around, clutching his groin, is there?
That would be distressing.
