Frail my heart apart and play me a little Shady Grove

We had plain grey squirrels in my hometown until some mushroom hunters brought some black ones home from Michigan with them. Within a few years there were black squirrels all over town. A few years later mutant squirrels with black bodies and grey tails replaced them all.

I don't go back much anymore.

I'm afraid there is such a thing as Vegan pizza in the U.S. Made with soy cheese, or rice cheese, or occasionally made with sundried tomatos and no cheese. Not so much bad, as not worth the trouble to eat.

I just make home-made pizza with some very nice pizza sauce from the supermarket, skip the cheese entirely. It's better than you'd think.

Hello! I must be going.

Katefate, black bodies and gray tails? That ain't right.

And wouldn't pizza be kosher until you put the pepperonis and sausage on it? (Asks the skisha.)

It's a remora, dimwit.

Tennessee has honeysuckle worth killing for. And now mentioning it on the thread has me jonesing for it. I am so missing having a fence full so that one could just grab a couple as a walking snack.

There's vegan jerky in the US. I don't think it's meant for eating so much as using an excuse to practice expressions of disbelief.

Hello! I must be going.

Hey, we had honeysuckle in NYC that you could pull out the middle stem and suck a drop of dewlike stuff. But just a couple of drops.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Tofurkey Jerky. I've never tried it. It just looks weird.

Vegan Jerkey - mostly ugh. Morningstar Corndogs - of the good. This carnivore prefers them to the real thing.

Serial:

However I'm on the Upper Left Coast; I suspect that I would prefer real NY or Chicago hotdogs to either. One thing I really have missed since moving to the Pacific NorthWet is decent Jewish Deli, and decent hot dogs and a. Living in LA and Houston spoiled me. Not that there aren't a few - there are a grand total of three decent Jewish delis in the whole greater Portland Area. Caroma, I'll bet there are three decent Jewish delis in walking distance of where you live.

fanny was British for goolie

My sister was over from the UK and she found it very very amusing when re-runs of The Nanny came on and the credits sequence song got to "where was she to go, what we she to do, she was out on her fanneeeeeeeee!" -- she speculates that this is why the show never made it on to UK TV.

[Australians cooking] pizza with egg. What sort of egg is this?

Everyone was assuming that this was an egg which had been pre-fried or boiled or whatever but in my experience, it's just a fresh egg broken over the top of the pizza before it goes into the oven. It gets baked along with all the other ingredients.
