Anya Christina Emmanuella Jenkins. Twenty years old. Born on the fourth of July — and don't think there weren't jokes about that my whole life, mister, 'cause there were. 'Who's our little patriot?' they'd say, when I was younger and therefore smaller and shorter than I am now.

Spike's Bitches 26: Damn right I'm impure!  

[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.

If I only had a brain...

It's Ro-Tel. A classic.

I read somewhere that a kid needs to try a new dish multiple times (10?) before liking it. This seems to have been true with my kids -- neither liked asparagus when it was first introduced, but they've both become asparagus fiends over the years.

Silence means security silence means approval

"slumgullion" (etomology unknown)

I believe it's related to 19th-century mining. I know there's a canyon in Colorado by that name.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Heh. I make a cheese, beef, macaroni, and tomato product. It's easy, and these days my cooking choices are all about the easy.

Ro-Tel is a key ingredient in the macaroni salad we ate growing up. Ro-Tel, Cheez Whiz, cubed green peper, macaroni. That's it.

It supposedly came of a 1950s can of Ro-Tel and has persisted in my family for that long.

To this day, I can't do anything with cheese, meat, and noodles smooshed together

Cheese for me is the miracle worker. Put cheese on anything, and I'll have a go at eating it.

Coding and Sleeping

I'm all about the easy too. The pizza dough from scratch this weekend was an exception because Leif wanted to make pizza. It's awfully cute to watch a three-year old kneading dough.

Hey. New board.

This makes me happier than life itself.

Heh, that's pretty good.

My friend, the former Oxford professor, had a good point about ID. "Fine, teach it in school. It takes up, what? 10 minutes? 'Proponents of Intelligent Design believe ____.' And you're done."

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I am a big fan of the try everything on your plate school. Found out that there are a number of things I don't like - because of how they are prepared - backed beans and sweet potato cassarole - I don't like them because they are two sweet. I actually like beans in most forms and love sweet potatoes.

I would like to have watched Leif make pizza dough
