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...
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

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

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

Because books.
Fay makes Indian food sound delicious. Now I want to try some. Like, tonight.
And you live so close to Philly!
And yet we never go into the city, unless it's a) the zoo, b) the airport, or c) when I was taking Ben to Children's Hospital for his foot. We've been to Old City *once* in the eight years we've lived here, and went to Warm Daddy's for blues. We're pathetic.

Crossposted with Beep Me:
Does anyone have Deena's cellphone number? I managed to get tied up in a huge traffic jam and missed my flight. Naturally I seem to have every number but hers. I will be arriving at 5:53 on Delta 1195. I'll be here for about 2:50 EST.
The whole story is much more Dante-esque and includes missing a second flight through Delta's incompetence and then being chosen for a random search. Now I'm on the internet at 65 cents a minute.
ETA: Never mind. She knows now.

Barfi.
I would buy this for the name alone.

AAAAAAAAAAAH! Princss Tickybox is just so beautiful!
Indian food is of the yum. Curse this diet that will not allow me to go pig out at India Palace's all you can eat buffet.
I can't believe no one has advised Aimee to try the goat curry.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Isn't Barfi the name of the Family Circus's dog?

I also like 'Oriental desserts' of the kind common here in Egypt - although, no, one can't eat more than one or two wee cakes, because, damn, hello honey. But still - yum. And Om Ali! Man oh man, Om Ali makes Bread'n'Butter pudding look like white trash. Which I guess it is, really, but DAMN, the Egyptian version is SO MUCH YUMMIER than the British one. And I love Bread'n'Butter pudding. But - yum.
Also? TICKYBOX!!!!

Am I the only one who heard this in their head as "Joe, et al"?
Maybe Teppy did.
