Ann, that's a ferret.

Do you have sufficient dead and decaying cats as specified in the goals section of your last performance review, Fred Pete?

No, just adopting live ones.

Don't forget that Erin also helped with your gay.

You want/need? Shall I e-mail it? Post it here?

Post it here.

It's for the cookbook.

Okay -- and this is verbatim what *you* posted way back when:

Vegan tiramisu.

1-package HipWhip (note: I used it while it was still frozen, but it should work if you've thawed it)
1-8 oz package of vegan cream cheese substitute
2 shots espresso or a half cup strong coffee
1/2 cup brandy, or to taste
1 package plain vegan cookies. (I used some vegan almond biscuits)
1 1/4 cups sugar, or to taste
1 bar strong dark chocolate
approx 8"x6" cassarole dish

Mix 2/3s of the espresso with half the brandy and 1/4 cup sugar. If the cookies are hard, put them in the mixture to soak. If not, dip them and line the bottom of your pan, setting half aside for the second layer.

Take your cream cheese substitute and hip whip, and mix them on high until blended. Add remaining sugar, espresso, and brandy until mixture is smooth and creamy, but still fluffy.

If you were using hard cookies, put the first layer of cookies on the bottom of the pan. Pour the mix over the first layer of cookies. Take your chocolate bar, and grate it over the mix until the surface is dusted with chocolate. Add your second layer of cookies, and repeat.

Chill until you are ready to serve. This is best served within about 2 hours of creation, I think.

I make normal tiramisu often (and quite well, according to all sources), and this tastes damned close to the original

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

VW needs to include the white-trash tiramisu in the cookbook.

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

The caf is selling two desserts for $1.50. I have fear.

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

We always had a lot of barn cats when I was growing up. Once several cats got buried by dry, chopped hay that was being blown into the barn. We found their mummified corpses half a year later.

I had just broken up with my girlfriend, and I was tempted to leave an anonymous mummified cat outsider her house for her (I would have put it in a box). But then I realized she'd know it was me, as she would probably figure that I was the only person she knew with access to mummified cats.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I feel like for some reason I was going to tell msbelle to EAT IT earlier, but I got distracted with work, and now I forget why. I guess it never hurts... Hey, msbelle: EAT IT.

HMOG. That's a little too reminiscent of the trauma I had watching Witness as a kid. That silo shit FREAKED ME OUT.

What was the silo thing in Witness? Someone get burried by silage?

My father would tell us stories of farmers who were suffocated in silos, because sometimes they get filled with... I dunno, some gas as a result of decomposition of the silage - enough to displace all the oxygen in the silo.
