I walk. I talk. I shop, I sneeze. I'm gonna be a fireman when the floods roll back. There's trees in the desert since you moved out. And I don't sleep on a bed of bones.

Because books.

Chocogasm: Sex, Death and Chocolate in Manhattan

Too long. And it sounds, strangely, like a book of essays by a former chef or food writer, or something.

Well I guess "And the Chef for Dessert" will have to remain my only suggestion. Oh - apparently there was once a song called "And the Waiter for Dessert". That does not invalidate "And the Chef for Dessert" does it - assuming it is otherwise still on the list?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

"Hot Buttered Death", following on Ginger's scones idea.

"Hot Buttered Death"

And (at least as Amazon + Google search show) not taken. I really like that. Fits the baking too.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Allyson, I can't wait to read this book.

Yes! This!

tries to think of snappy titles. ignores insults to British food.

"Choked by Spotted Dick"

Not a good title - just could not resist the straightline

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

"Choked by Spotted Dick"

One of the local alternative weeklies had an article a few weeks ago about an expat Brit supermarket in San Francisco (actually, just a couple of blocks from where I work), and the owners admitted that for every one can of spotted dick they sell to an expat, they probably sell five or six to Americans who can't stop giggling over spotted dick in a can.
