You never know if a girl's gonna say 'yes', or if she's gonna laugh in your face and pull out your still-beating heart and crush it into the ground with her heel.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

New thread!

The game's afoot!

The Buffista Book Club will begin discussing Sherlock Holmes Sept. 7. We will be reading four stories from The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and The Hound of the Baskervilles . The reading has been formatted and put online by the lovely and talented Deena here [link] (The stories are now in the public domain and are available on Bartleby.com.)

The plan is to have a sort of read-and-post. Here's the discussion schedule:

A Scandal in Bohemia and The Red-Headed League – 9/7
The Speckled Band and The Blue Carbuncle – 9/14
The Hound of the Baskervilles Chapters I-VII – 9/21
The Hound of the Baskervilles Chapters VII-XV – 9/28

I will be posting some background material and discussion questions by early next week.

Mostly lurking...

Hello, all! It's time for your weekly reminder from the Buffistas Cookbook Team. Get those recipes in! We've gotten quite a few this week, which has been wonderful. Keep sending, though. We would like as many as absolutely possible. We are collecting until September 12, but the sooner you can get them to us, the better... and the faster the cookbook will be in your hands.

For specific information on what to send, etc., here's the link to the original post: vw bug "Sunnydale Press" Aug 11, 2005 4:40:33 am PDT

I cannot tell you how exciting this project is. You are all going to just be amazed when the cookbook comes out. The recipes are looking like real treats. Ok...enough taunting...

Send! Send! Send! to buffistascookbook at gmail dot com.
