I'll be fine. I'll be your bounty, Jubal Early. And I'll just fade away.

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.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Wow, teppy, that sounds good to me.

I'm currently eating fresh guacamole with my tacos AIFG.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Thanks.

OK, now that I've actually read the recipe, you're supposed to grind the almonds and 1/4 cup of sugar in a food processor to make a paste, and then use 1 1/2 cups of that paste. Which would seem to me to mean that you'd have to measure out a bit more than 1 1/2 cups of almonds, because a lot of that measuring cup space would be air space between the almonds, right? But maybe air gets beaten into the paste, or something. (And I'm just reading the recipe for a "maybe I'll try this sometime later," so this is entirely theoretical right now.)

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Can I just chop up a tomato and throw it in a pan with olive oil and garlic and basil? Will that work to toss on top of pasta?

Yes. If you have time, roasting the tomato first (cut in half, place cut-side down on a foil-lined baking sheet, sprinkle with salt pepper and olive oil, bake at 350-400 until soft and squooshy and a little browned, about 30-45 minutes) will concentrate the flavors and make for a richer-tasting sauce.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

What Jess said, about the tomato-roasting. It's yummy.

The current National Geographic magazine has a nice big article on Bollywood. Those folks are hotties.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

I don't know if I can wait 30-40 minutes to roast a tomato. I'm pretty hungry now.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

P-C, Vidhi sounds like the sort of kid you'd expect to see on TV one day, crawling out of a well and then crawling out of the screen to come after you.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ha! Oh man. I fear for how that kid's going to turn out if her parents don't damn well discipline her.

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

and Hec and Nonian want spoilers.
Travelogue spoilers? Buffistas delight me.

So it's either delayed by a storm or something, or a great glowing presence appeared in the cabin and everyone started speaking in tongues. Could throw travel plans awry.
