[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.

beth b, the recipe your DH wanted is up in my lj.

Yay for SF, Emily! We know people who teach in the school district there (eta: the Oakland, K-12 school district), if you want to be put in touch.

All the dishes are done from the brunch today, and most of them are put away. I've now officially switched my body over from "productive" to "lazy."

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Great Brunch, Sparky!

Thanks, Perkins. I want to hear about what you bought at the fair!

Jewelry, some of which is for presents, and some of which is for me.

What's it look like (you can just tell what you bought for yourself)? I didn't buy anything, although I wanted to do so. We stopped in an open house on our way to the park -- a little 3 bd/2 bath offered at $899K. ::keels over and dies from stickershock::

I suck at describing jewelry. I'll just have to show you, but it's all Asian inspired-- I bought it all at the same place. I bought a red and black fan shaped pin (I needed it to dress up an ebay dress); a pair of pink button earrings with red and gold flower design on them, and a pair of silver earrings with a red and black overlay.

Looking like San Francisco. Or, well, Oakland. I think. I guess. Unless something happens.

Yay! Here's how I decided to move to San Francisco: "Oh shit, my car is dying. I can't afford to live in LA anymore. Where's the nearest city with decent public transit? San Francisco? Huh. I know some people there. Could be fun. Who couldn't have fun in San Francisco? I'll try it out for a few years and see what I think." 20 years later...

Excellent plan.

I just made a reservation for me and my DH to use a B&B gift certificate we had for a place in Calistoga in a couple of weeks, for our anniversary. Yahoo!

Portland... Portland... Portland...

This is exactly the choice I would have made 15 years ago. Ten years ago even. Property values were the deciding swing in my vote when I moved to Portland. I adore the Bay Area's public transportation.
