I like books. I just don't want to take on too much. Do they have an introduction to the modern blurb?

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Huh, new format for the board. It's a little hard to read....

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

to all the mom's happy mother's day

the board is shinny

money management is all about skimping on the things you don't want so you can get what you need and some of the stuff you want. IOW, GO Trapeze

I like that McDonald's sandwich. But it's not as good as a chik-fil-a.

Chik-fil-a is really good, but they only have those at the mall here, as far as I know.

I'm trying to decide if I should try this recipe from Sothernfood.com. Does beef, apples, onions, curry powder, cinnomon and cloves and lemon juice sound like a good combo or just odd?

I dunno, typo...somehow with beef that just sounds weird to me. It sounds like it'd make more sense with pork, or chicken.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Lemon juice and beef? I think that's a little weird to me. I don't see the benefits of the lemon juice making it past the beef.

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

The lemon juice doesn't sound weird to me except there's way too much of it and it ought to be added at the end - adding at the beginning will cook out all of the brightness it adds to the curry, which defeats the purpose of including it in the first place.

I'm also not sure what the apples are doing in there. I wouldn't dismiss it on principle, but there are much better "curry" recipes out there.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think there were apples in my family's supermarket curry powder chicken curry in the 80s, but we never did beef.
