ita, have you seen the ATK on the one pot meals yet? Two words: Clam Bake.

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

Two words: Clam Bake.

I have not! And I mis-Tivoed half of the one today, because I had my cable plugged into the computer not the TiVo. I hope there wasn't anything good.

I'm not a fan of the actual clam. Like, if my chowder has none, I like clam chowder. Something like my response to coconut.

So I'm not sure clam bake is for me. But if you make it, I'll come over.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why do I have to be on the one LJ cluster that's still down? WHY??

Um.

Plei, I like the oatmeal cookie recipe from the Quaker oatmeal box. But with less sugar. I always use less sugar in cookie recipes.

What cluster, Jesse?

Also, what author were you talking about yesterday? I forgot to write it down. Devil in the Details is coming to you Tuesday since I finished it this AM.

I'm not a fan of clams at all. Or seafood. But I do like clam broth. And there is corn and potatoes and, on the top, either dungeness crab (which I like well enough) or lobster.

Chef, which they CLAIM is not down, but I know better.

My new crack author? Lois McMaster Bujold. Don't even get me started.

You know what's good? Clam cakes. Big balls of fried dough, with a couple little clam bits.

I picked up a non-Vorksigian book of hers, because I can never remember to take the recommended reading order with me to the library or bookstore. It's slow ... but now that I've remembered it, I'll read some before bedtime.

Kat, I have no idea what I did with Kite Runner. I will buy you a replacement.

I am almost done with all the Vorkosigan books, and I just want to start from the beginning. And I want to buy them all. I have Issues.

Issues aside from being WIDE FUCKING AWAKE. Maybe I should start drinking.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

I still haven't read the Vorkosigan books, but The Curse of Chalion is a damn fine read, and its sequel Paladin of Souls is one of my favorite fantasy novels ever.

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

Anything specific you wanna know, Burrell?

Sorry for disappearing Vonnie. I have a bunch of questions. Like how common is it? What, precisely, is it? And how is it treated?

Curse of Chalion is what I'm reading. But I'm nowhere in it yet -- the blurb hasn't started to happen yet.

Drink, Jesse, drink!
