God did not intend for us to choose between red and black shoes.
Coincidentally, neither does Satan.
You're not gonna jokey-rhyme your way out of this one.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
sj, trying to view that page just (twice) made Safari, "unexpectedly quit," so I couldn't see the shoes, but I'll vote red, because everybody should have more red shoes.
Just finished making the gumbo. Very good, though I think I might futz with the spices and herbs a bit. Thickening things with a roux is fun -- it's magic! (Or chemistry. Whichever. I just watched Alton Brown explain how it works a few days ago.) Turns out gumbo z'herbes, when it hasn't sat for hours in a college cafeteria serving line, is actually deep green, not muddy greenish brown!
The muffins, my first experiment in vegan baking, seem to have turned out pretty well. Not really the texture I was expecting, but still very good. They're soft -- closer to a cupcake texture than to what I think of as a muffin texture.
I think I'm going to forget about the sweet potatoes for now. I can make them tomorrow. For now, I've already used up more cooking utensils than my dishwasher can hold.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Red Shoes, because both Tom Waits and Elvis Costello have written songs about red shoes.

David Bowie as well. (eta: OK, not so much "about" as "prominently mentioned")
So male rock musicians seem to prefer the red shoes over the blue suede....

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
I just bought them both, because Aimee and Cindy are evil.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
And then you can put on your red shoes and dance the blues.
Your dinner sounds wonderful, Hil.

Only if the moonlight is serious.

Right. So, good choice getting the black, too, sj, in case the moonlight is frivolous.

I can't really resist pointy flats. I hope they fit over the braces.

What is even happening?
sj, you misspelled helpful, but no one will notice stuff like that, if you're wearing cute shoes.
