What's your stance on Swiss?
Real from-Switzerland Swiss is excellent. The American supermarket variety is a nice melting cheese, but works best as an accent, not a main cheese ingredient.

[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.

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

Thing 1: PRINCESS TICKY BOX! OMG!
OMGOMGOMG!!!! So wee! So gorgeous! So wee! Such a lovely name! And the hat!
::bounces and bounces and bounces::
Thing 2: NEVER EATEN INDIAN FOOD??????!!!
t /astounded
::reflects::
OK, I guess you guys have Mexican as your default food? Or Chinese? Or - wow. Wow. Indian food = YUM.
Unscary things for a beginner: chicken biryani, chicken korma (mild, creamy, coconut/almond), lamb passanda (similar). Rogan josh (tomato-ish). Prawn Patia (tomatoy, sharp, yummy). Peshwari Naan is The One True Naan, imho - it's like naan filled with marzipan, almost! Yum! Sweetness as a delicious contrast to one's spicy curry.
Mmmmmm. Indian food. Onion baajis. Vegetable pakoras. Indian sweets! Yum!
Aaaaaand now I want curry. Damn it. Chicken Tikka Masala (which, granted, is never the same recipe twice) is our most popular dish. I had yummy Indian food with my mum at a new place in town when I was home at Easter.
TICKY BOX!

I've never had Indian food either.
And you live so close to Philly! Unless it's changed (which it could've; it's been 7 years), there are some great Indian places near Penn's campus. Yum yum yum.

Now tagless for your comfort.
OMG!!! Lillian is so damned adorable!!! And tiny! I keep forgetting how tiny they are when they come out.
It also adds to my theory that babies look like their fathers when they first appear but tend to take on more of their mother's features as they grow. /bullshit theory
I am dead from the cuteness. I also want more pictures.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Indian sweets! Yum!
I hate Indian sweets. Waaaay too sweet for me.

Oh, when I worked in Willesden Green in my Very Worst Job Ever, the one redeeming feature was a vegetarian Sweet Mart across the road that did lovely curries, and a dish of roast cassava root with chili sauce, and a whole array of brightly coloured things with unappetising names like Barfi and delicious flavours. Cardamom. Coconut. Mmmmm...

Ew. Barfi. Eat the foil, why don't you.
