Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

World's most expensive dessert:

The Fortress Sri Lanka, an award winning luxury resort in Galle has created the most expensive dessert in the world. Priced at $14,500 ‘The Fortress Stilt Fisherman Indulgence’ is an effort by the resort’s culinary team to create a one of a kind dessert that is intrinsically linked with the destination, offering both long lasting memories and a keepsake of the experience.

Available on special request, the dessert’s inspiration comes from the resort’s logo of the ‘stilt fisherman’, a centuries old fishing practice that can still be seen along the country’s coastline even today.

A combination of a gold leaf Italian kasata, flavoured with Irish cream and served with a mango and pomegranate compote and a bubbly-based sabayon enlighten, forms the mouthwatering base of this delicious desert, however, the finishing touch is the 80-carat aquamarine stone nestled on the handmade chocolate stilt fisherman.

How much gold leaf would one need to eat before one was poisoned?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I hope you get to keep it.

Trust my rage

Crap, I heard people talking about Private Practice, but I didn't realize it was the Addison show. I guess I'll have to add it to my TIvo a week late.

Trust my rage

So, the first glance estimate on my car was $8K to repair, but the specifically does not include electronices and so on - just body work. The car is supposedly worth $20K (that's the low value) and I owe 18K. Anyone know how much the repair cost has to get to before I get a new car? (or have any experience with this. I haven't been in a car accident in 16 years)

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am sorry, Stephanie, I have no car advice-- my non-running car is worth $200!

Also- am I crazy or did the owner of the practice used to be played by Merrin Dungey and is now played by Victoria Rowland? It was confusing, and I think Merrin did a better job.

Audra McDonald replaced Merrin Dungey.

Art Crawl!!!

Yes, they re-cast the part.

I have to say, that I'm going to bail on PP - just didn't like it. I did enjoy Dirty Sexy Money. That was fun. Even though I watched it this morning after a night of disturbed sleep thanks to a cat who kept vomitting and vomitting.

Do you think that cats find canned food easier to digest? I'm thinking of getting him a little just to see if he can handle it better.

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

I thought it was a different actress too, Sophia.

I forgot to tape DSM. Probably good, since I don't have time for it, and I don't know how I feel about Peter Krause these days (The Lost Room restored a lot of the Sports Night goodwill that I'd lost due to Six Feet Under, but not all of it.)
