[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.

sj, I'm sorry for your loss.

The house looks fantastic, ND and Kirstin. Congrats again.

Safe travels to the Lauras.

Beautiful jacket, -t.

vw and Emily's dinner would hit. the. spot.

And last, Hec's niece sounds like a doll, and I'm so glad she's having such a great time.

I spent the afternoon babysitting my niece; we crafted, read, and watched TV. I've now escaped to the library.

Tonight we're having taquitos with enchilada sauce, melted cheese, and sour cream with a side of Mexican rice.

::checks flights::

I can be there in the morning.

Babe, you come anytime, once I'm in my new place (and therefore, have a hide-a-bed), and you'll get taquitos galore.

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

Can you send some with Emily, vw?

(That way she'll have something to eat once she's here).

Hmmmm...not sure it's gonna make it five days in the car.

hmm, probably not. Poor Emily-- she's in for a bit of roomie culture shock.

Nah...she's gonna be just fine. This cooking thing hasn't been happening much as of late anyway. We've been so busy and going in a hundred directions, so we've been eating out (or bringing food in) a lot. I just thought I'd try to cook some of her favorites before she goes.

Because books.

What is enchilada sauce, vw? Because the taquitos sound yummy, and I bet the boys would love them.

Actually, how do you make the taquitos? I've only ever had the frozen ones.

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

Arrrrh, in honor of Pirates I'm drinking a dark rum drunk and it's very tasty on a gorgeous afternoon in San Francisco.

It's got dark rum (Whaler's - I think ND brought it to the F2F?), a bit of upscale Dr. Swami & Bone Daddy's Gourmet Top Shelf Margarita Mix (made with real citrus pulp, unfiltered lemon & lime juice), Maraschino Liqueuer (unrelated to Maraschino cherries), and some Orangina for sweetness and citrus and fizz. Luscious.

Me too! :) We get the beef ones from Trader Joe's, and they are just fabulous. And cheap too!

Enchilada sauce is a spicy Mexican tomato sauce. It's YUMMY!

ION, it's official. My body hates me. I'm getting a yeast infection on my arm again...just like in the Spring when I was on steroids forever. And I'm on SUCH a low dose! They said I shouldn't experience *any* side effects on this low of a dose.

They lied!

Tried to page my PCP, but she's out of the hospital and being covered by someone I don't know. She's back in tomorrow morning, so I'll just wait, considering the pharmacy is closed now anyway.

AmyLiz, this is the enchilada sauce I make: [link]

And, the Mexican rice I make? Rice-a-Roni: [link]

I can cook from scratch! Really! It's just...there's not always time for it... So, I improvise. And slather EVERYTHING in sour cream. It's my secret.
