I was gonna say god, but after the long natter discussion, i decided to think of something else, and since I'm eating a banana, went with the noun closest to me.

I had minced banana with my curry at Trader Vic's last night. I loved Trader Vic's a lot, although I was disappointed that they floated an edible orchid instead of a gardenia in my drink.

That's gross.

And I don't mean the orchid.

It was an English-style curry. Banana and currants and other weird stuff are traditional.

Actually, it was a bizarre American variant on a curry; it was clearly broiled chicken mixed in a curry sauce, rather than chicken stewed in curry.

Luckily they weren't traditional when and where I was in England.

Hmm. That's fascinating.

I wonder if it's only Americans who do that, then? When I was growing up, if we were having a curry-powder-based curry, there were always chopped eggs, chopped peanuts, chopped banana, coconut, raisins... to sprinkle on. That was what made it fun.

Oh, banana you.

DH likes bananas with his curry, and has always said it was a South African thing. Something bland to nibble if the hot was too much, I think.

Rock on, Simon.

Although I apparently conveyed inaccurate information to a coworker -- I got Kevin's question about Serenity II confused with Joss asking Tim about the blond vampire thing, and told someone that Joss had asked Tim to do Serenity II.

Well, I didn't say it in front of a camera or post it anywhere, so I can't be held responsible for the rumors if they crop up.
