Weird love's better than no love.

Buffy ,'Dirty Girls'


Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.

There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Jilli, I just bought the cards without realizing it was the only set. Send me your email and I'll mail them to you.

If I were to do a Night Circus party I would have a cake with dark chocolate and white icing stripes and strawberry or raspberry filling in the center.

Bags of caramel corn.

Chocolate mice with almond ears.

What else?

Aww, that's sweet, but don't worry about it. I'll just keep an eye on the shop and see if she lists another set.

I think there would need to be some sort of savory nibbly thing for a Night Circus party, but I don't know what. Little cheese biscuits with red pepper?

Or tiny yorkshire puddings? It's hard to think of black and white food.

Pasta salad with striped bowtie pasta? [link]

One of my friends made me a birthday dinner with that pasta (before the dreaded gluten-free thing came up). Yummy AND appropriate for my color scheme!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Can one fall in love with a pasta? I think I am in love with that pasta. Or at least a serious crush.

Yes. Because I fell in love with that pasta. It's one of the reasons I'm hoping I can eventually eat gluten again.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Dangit, Jilli, now I have to make pasta for lunch!

(Mushrooms sauteed in butter, olive oil, garlic and Vermouth, adding and heating up a little leftover roasted chicken, tossed with rigatoni and baby spinach with hot pepper flakes. Little Parmesan.)

Whoo, I should not have typed "The Night Circus" into eBay on a whim. No way I can afford it, but a tempting, tempting auction: [link]
