Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

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.

Coincidentally, I made goat cheese crepes with fig sauce for dinner, much to the DH's dismay.

I made goat cheese crepes with fig sauce for dinner,

Oh my god, that sounds so good. How exactly would one go about making this fig sauce?

I'm getting the pig!

Making out with gay boys is covered in the Facts Of Life manual in the chapter called All Of The Fun And None Of The Guilt. My favorite chapter. I think they also cover Gummi Worms in that chapter.

In a group dinner situation, if I'm aware ahead of time that we'll be splitting the tab evenly, I let others order first and then I try to order in a similar price range. But I would never assume that others should help me pay for my $30 meal if their tab came to $15.

Hoping -t has a safe trip with few surprises.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Pneumatic tubes are SO 20th-century. Teleportation is where it's at, baby.

Yeah, well, I blew my transponder last week and haven't received a replacement yet.

That's totally the 21st-century equivalent of "The check is in the mail."

Hec, I like a port and raspberry sauce or lemon butter on mine.

I love the port and raspberry sauce--I've been making it since before I could legally drink--and wish I would remember to write down a recipe for it.

Tep, the batter takes 24 hours to prep, sadly. Mind you, most of that's "resting". (And really, it only rests overnight, but still.)

We had pumpkin ice cream yesterday--a brand from SF--and I wanted to be in Ohio so I could try Graeters. I shake my fists at you with access.

Always Anti-fascist!

I was thinking about that and I think that is another thing I haven't really had.

What is even happening?

Heh. I want to hear the gay boys talk about making out with straight girls, now.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

I am a big proponet of splitting the bill evenly, but usually with people I eat out with a lot. and if I suggest it it is usually " do we want to split - or figure out what each of us owes". and honestly, sheer laziness is the key. If someone says figure it out ,that's what we do. One time when we put it on our credit card for a large group - everybody had money for themselves - but at the last minute everyone decicded to treat three people.- so people didn't have the cash. within 48 hours people made up the difference.

Today we are putting in a new reciever. ( our old one does not handle everything it needs to handle) . this is involing hole drilling , new shelves, and new wires... I though we were done with the plan - i tried to rake my tiny yard -- it took forever, because I kept having to go back inside...

I just heated Bonne Maman's fig jam until it was somewhat runny, and mixed in a little lemon juice.

I thought it was good.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I don't often go out with people I don't know really well, and the bill nearly never gets split down who ordered what lines. I'll pay for someone's because she got my drinks last time and I don't have cash, or someone came to visit, so we buy theirs or they buy ours, maybe I'm doing a little better this month so I treat the person who just dropped a bunch of money on property tax. Terribly subjective accounting all based on friendship, generosity and what feels fair. Can't say I'd really reccommend it though.
