Lorne: Once the word spreads you beat up an innocent old man, well, the truly terrible will think twice before going toe-to-toe with our Avenging Angel. Spike: Yes. The geriatric community will be soiling their nappies when they hear you're on the case. Bravo.

[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.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

{{{Beej}}}

Back from watching re-enactors, whose guns I got to handle a bit, but NSM play with. (Oh well.) However, I learned a lot, and I'm going to go back and add in some smell/touch/sound details to my skirmish scenes that weren't there before. And I can now actually picture how a flintlock firing mechanism worked--still pictures in books with text explanations weren't doing it for me.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

You WILL want Johnny Depp after seeing him, I promise you. Also many of Juliette Binoche's dresses.

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

Oooh! I have Chocolat on dvd. Just sitting there, smiling demurely at me. Also? Under the Tuscan Sun. Chickflickfest, ahoy! Who's got the popcorn?

You know, Johnny Depp plus chocolate does NOT EVER equal Willy Wonka. Johnny Depp plus chocolate ALWAYS equals Chocolat. Mmm.

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 do... And, my, the dresses were quite lovely too. My life needs a costumer.

Damn movie made me sniffly at the end. Even when Pontouf hopped off... It was very different than the book, for me, but I enjoyed it.

Johnny Depp plus chocolate
Johnny Depp + chocolate = nummmmmmmy...

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

All this Depp and addition, yet no subtraction?

Mostly lurking...

If a recipe calls for "minced green onions," which part of the green onion do you use? And what is "minced"?

I would use the white and pale green parts, they usually specify if they want you to use the darker green parts.

Minced is just finely chopped. Thwack at it a while with a kinfe = minced, to me.
