[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Jars, if you buy a fresh, whole pumpkin now, it will likely still be good by Thanksgiving.
Ooh! Great idea!
I grew up in the Midwest but have spent some time in the South, mainly due to the Army. The first time I got called a Yankee, I was like, "dude, those people are all dead!"
Once I'd lived in NC for a while, I got used to it, but it still always catches me off guard a bit. Now, I'm a gringa.
"Why don't you ask Hillary? She's Jewish." I said, "Ask me what?" and after a bit of hemming and hawing, one of the other girls asked me, "Are you offended by the Confederate flag?" I said yes. She said, "OK, but are you offended as a Jew, or are you offended as a Yankee?" I was a bit stunned, as I'd never thought of the word "Yankee" to describe myself, but that was how they saw me.
And obviously there's no reason to be bothered by a symbol of solidarity with Jim Crow that's not about being Jewish or from the north. @@
[Edited to be more clear about who I'm rolling my eyes at.]

Great pictures, Aimee! You and Em both look great.
Dog ~ma for Darcy. Poor thing.
When we had our cocker spaniel when I was a kid, he got out one year on Christmas Day and came back with a gunshot wound (superficial graze). That sucked but he recovered quickly. I hope Darcy isn't too busted up.
I am posting prone from the most comfortable hotel bed I've ever slept in. 7 hours of undisturbed sleep go a looooooong way. I'm loathe to leave its comfy confines, even to find some breakfast. But I need to get on the road and get home to help DH with the kids. The painter is coming back this afternoon so we need to keep them out of the way.
I'm a Protestant from Mississippi, and am definitely offended by the confederate flag. I was never so embarrassed to be from MS as the day we voted to keep it in its current form, such a massively shameful symbol of hate and intolerance. I had already been accepted to Caltech, but that was the day I knew I would not be going back.
Also, I'm sick. And there's a mouse under my bed. Do not want!

Clearly you need a cat. Then there would be a dead mouse on your pillow!
