Well, other bands know more than three chords. Your professional bands can play up to six, sometimes seven, completely different chords.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

Alibelle, I was simply worshipping you from afar.

That's fair. I understand that there is a bit of a lag time for those to reach me from Earth.

Not looking at shelters sites. I tried volunteering after I got Devi. Yeah, I'm a big marshmallow and only pure finances prevented me from bringing them all home. Felt like shit for feeling like shit. And then, of course, there is Mister Kitty's sob story. So I write the APSCA and the local shelters checks now and then. And wait for more space.

Everyone is doing cookies. I'll do green chile faux posole with my horrid measuring skills. Cause I WANT it now:

1 box. Or one really tall can. chicken broth
About equal water.
toss in 2 or 3 or 4 large spoons of fresh compressed oregano (or, you know, that stuff that's dried or in a jar.) And maybe some pepper
Saute about 2 large diced chicken breasts in a pan with large (a couple of cloves?) of garlic.
In the pan you did the chicken, saute about 2 diced onions until the onions start getting translucent. Toss into pot of broth with chicken.
Add something short of a pound of roasted & chopped green chile.
Add 2 regular cans of drained hominy.
Shred 3 or 4 corn tortillas and throw those in as well.

Simmer for 45 minutes or until hominy has the "right" texture (some like it mushy, I like some resistance.)

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Okay, now I want a kitty again. Damn you, allergies!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Egad. So many cookies. Now I want to bake.

So, does anyone know about systemic candida? I only know a little anecdotal information.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I know nuthin' about baking cookies.

I do know something about systemic candida infection though. Anything specific you wanna know, Burrell?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Just how systemic do the candidas get? Like, on a scale of one to ten?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm over my lobster squick! I just discovered you can cut one in half, serve the bottom half as food and use the top half as moving garnish.

I feel so much better now.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I had the best sweet potato cookies a while back. WANT MORE NOW.

Me too. You need to get the recipe.

Back from sushi. It was fun, and food, and fun food.

I have no cookies though, which is sad.

Yes, that too. It turns out that ita thought that lobster she had would have been able to say that she tried to kill it, and failed, if, you know, it could have talked. Turns out that it was just the way the lobster is.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
