Now I want strawberry shortcake.
Reynolds, I'm a dangerous-minded man on a ship loaded with hurt. Now, why you got me chatting with your peons?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I can see lightly sauteeing strawberries in butter and eating them on some sort of cake or toast or something. Or, oh, setting them on fire, is that part of Strawberries Romanov?

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan
Ali! My ass called you on Saturday. I guess it misses you a lot!
Aww. It's nice to be missed. I finally got the voice mail that went along with the call, and apparently your ass was watching commercials when it rang me up.
Perkins gets a pass because I suck so bad and am incapable of putting things in the mail. I don't know what my problem is.
The job I really want is at a big dance school in the city. They're looking for a receptionist, but from what I understand one of the big perks is the getting to dance, along with the job. So, thanks for the positive thoughts!
Also, in other positive news, I'm finally getting driving lessons, which will start in ten minutes, so I need to go run and get dressed. I'll be back soon!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Who would win in a fight? Strawberry Shortcake or Rainbow Bright?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Except it's thickened with guar gum and carrageenan. And cornstarch. 1% milk isn't supposed to feel like this. It's even worse than drinking skim.

Oh, that does sound like a good job, Alibelle! Renewed extra strength jobma.

I think it called you in the movies. It's so impetuous.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Rainbow Brite would totally kick Strawberry Shortcake's ass.

I can just see melted butter and strawberries in my past and am trying to put it together.
Toast with butter and jam.
Or jam on a grilled cheese.

Strange values:
Nicole Kidman is to become the highest paid public speaker in history after negotiating a staggering $435,000 for a 25 minute corporate speech - and she might not even turn up. The Antipodean beauty has been commissioned to address a bevy of high- powered businessmen at the 5th Annual Forbes Global CEO Conference at Sydney Opera House, Australia. However, despite her astonishing pay request being met, she is toying with the idea of simply delivering her talk by satellite. A source tells British newspaper The Sun, "You'd think for £10,000 a minute she'd at least be there. But she's such a big name organiszrs want her to speak no matter what. This deal will make her the highest paid public speaker of all time. Business execs are paying £2,500 each to be there and they expect big names: former New York Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and Aussie Prime Minister John Howard will also speak. Nicole will talk about following dreams and aspirations from the perspective of being an actress and a mother."
I was never much into Strawberry Shortcake or Rainbow Brite, but I am reminded of some cutesy letter paper I had -- one had drawings of girls in big dresses, and the trim was photos of lace. The other was something to do with jeans, and had strange verse like "ashes to ashes, dust to dust, my jeans are so tight, they're going to bust".
