What is even happening?

Nilly, I will come as soon as is feasible, and, unless my children are the subjects of dangerous psychological experiments in the meantime (other than the ones I perform routinely, that is), I can nearly guarantee they'll drink chocolate milk from most containers, possibly even shoes.

In Malaysia, the coffee came in baggies like that also, but as it was a little warm, there would be a plastic clamp with a loop around the top of the bag, so you could hold that. Or hang it on something nearby. Like a chain-link fence, while you waited for the bus. I only got it once, as they put butter in the coffee, which I really didn't ...

What is up with the butter in coffee? My evil exboyfriend's grandmother put Margarine (oleo, maybe, to some here) in her coffee. I never got that. She was not Malaysian, by the by. She was some mix of British Isles ancestry--white American Protestant. I almost lost my lunch when I saw her do it.

Thanks, Gud! How are you? I haven't chatted with you in a while.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I can't decide why butter in coffee sounds so nast, because whipped cream in coffee is excellent, and if you just keep beating, it would turn into butter eventually.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Because butter usually has salt in it?

Whipped cream is sweet, though, and butter is not so much.

Also, I now desperately want some chocolate milk. Thanks a lot, Nilly.

On occasion, the half and half I put in my coffee has separated (I dunno, there is no apparent reason. Maybe someone shook it before I bought it) and so I'll end up with lumps in my coffee. Won't drink it then.

I'm against lumpy liquids.

Yeah, but not inherently. I think I need to get my hands on some of this butter/corn syrup/evaporated milk coffee, just for testing purposes.

The solidification of the fat, I think, is what gags me. I never could figure out the magarine thing. I think she was lactose intolerant, but dude, just have non-dairy creamer, or be a (wo)man and drink it black.

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

non-dairy creamer

A world of EWWWWWWW. Of course, so's margarine.
