Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.  

[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.

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

Yikes, Stephanie!

I cut my run short this morning by almost 1/2 mile. Bad me, no biscuit! But I am hurting this morning. For Thursday's run I think I'll go to the gym and not do it outside.

...so, I need to not be indulging in wistful/lecherous/romantic/hopeful fantasy thoughts about my former academic daughter. Whom I've not seen since we were at University. Whom I never actually slept with, other than in a strictly literal spooning USTy sense. Who's just posted to facebook that she's separating from her husband. Who has kids, for God's sake (despite the fact that she will always be jailbait to me).

Yes. Because I'm fairly sure that this is not a helpful response.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Good one, Stephanie.

Fay, why not have a little fun fantasizing? Unless it really hurts to come back to reality.

Alpha-bits.

So I had a bunch of apples that we got back in September, and some strawberries that have been in the freezer forever, plus blueberries and blackberries that had been in the freezer just a few months. Pealed and cut up the apples, dumped 'em in a pot with the berries, a bit of water, a nice glob of honey, and a splash of lemon juice. Is this fruit soup or cheesecake topping?

Um, why? Fantasies, yay!

Well, yes - but what I mean in this case is that it's probably not particularly good to be thinking 'Hey! She's single! And we had this whole stupid unconsumated romance thing full of poetry and romantic walks and handholding and all that crap! And I've always had a soft spot for her, and kicked myself for 'doing the decent thing' and trying to not take advantage of her when she was vulnerable and blah blah blah regret cakes, and maybe I should go up to Scotland and we could live happily ever after as Big Gay Lovers and I'd help raise her children! Yeah!'

Because, you know, I'm making my own life - and hers, more to the point - into bad fanfic.

Hm, well yes, maybe. But hey, I'd still read it!

Cobbler?

Punishingly Intricate

Cobbler would have a sort of a crust I think.

I'd call it special apple sauce!

Wouldn't it be a compote?
