Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

If I only had a brain...

People described it as "like drinking a melted truffle." Ooog. And look at the fat content!

I just saw an ad for that in this month's Lucky. It looks like the sort of Starbucks drink that looks good on paper, but will in fact taste terrible.

Nope. I had one last night, and OMG!!1! it was good. Really, really good. And so rich that I actually couldn't finish it.

Holy crap!

"A six-ounce cup of Chantico contains 390 calories, 20g of fat and 50g of carbs."

So, no having one as an everyday treat. Curses! It was sooooo tasty.

Yes, but you like coffee that tastes like sugar. I want my coffee to taste like coffee. My chocolate likewise.

Chantico etymology:

CHANTICO: Domestic Goddess of the Home and Domestic Hearth Fires. Also has a neat sideline in volcanoes.

She's in charge of precious things, and is very protective of her treasures. Look but don't touch, okay? Put your worldly goods in her care for the ultimate in home security. A very comforting Goddess to have about the place.

But there's more to CHANTICO than that. With her red serpent accessories and crown of poisoned cactus spikes, she symbolises the combination of pleasure and pain. What does that tell you about Aztec domestic life?

One other thing. Don't mention the paprika. There was a ban on eating the stuff during a fast, but she just couldn't help herself. As punishment she was turned into a dog by TONACATECUHTLI the Food God. Perhaps that's why dogs like crouching beside the fire.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

I thought Bitches would appreciate this site. Be warned, it's like an expedition into stupid!people land...

Ro, the really sad this is that this:

oh speaking of credit card numbers you know that i don't really want an online store, but i want people to be able to buy things right?

kind of perfectly describes my department's website...

The had samples. It was like drinking brownie batter. Far too sweet for me, I fear.

(To be fair, the kind of selling we do really does require person-to-person contact, because the pricing will vary depending on the kind of usage the client wants. But still. Amusing.)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I can finally breathe again.

I have to run one last mega-important errand right now but I think I am going to do one last post when I get back detailing exactly what everyone helped me get through. If only so I can finally say all of it out loud.

There is just not enough thanks in the world...
