But I understand. You gave up everything you had to find me. And you found me broken. It's hard for you.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

My mom didn't allow sugary cereal at all. I generally ate either Cheerios or Corn Flakes for breakfast at home. The first few days of summer camp, I'd eat the Froot Loops and Apple Jacks and Frosted Flakes, but after a while I'd go back to Cheerios and Corn Flakes.

Thanks, Jilli. I can't wear any kind of heel, but I'll check to see what else they have.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

ftr I do love Circus Peanuts, and citrus slices, too.

At first Mom wouldn't let us have any cereal that had sugar as the first ingredient so I loved sleeping over at Heidi Petersen's house 'cause her parents let her have Cookie Crisp. When Mom realised how many different names there were for sugar we lost access to a lot of our favorite cereals, Pops, Honeycomb and Smacks (nee Super Sugar Smacks!)

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I like the Urban Decay 24/7 liner. It does smudge after crying, but it cleans up, too.

Thirding.

I've been wearing it for over a year now (maybe longer), and although my penny-pinching soul quails at paying more than $5 for eyeliner, it's really, really worth it. It does. not. budge. And I say that as former Queen of Smudgy Eyeliner, since I get all hot and sweaty easily, which makes most eyeliner smudge. Not the 24/7 liner. It's a thing of beauty, and I don't begrudge them a penny of their $16.

ION, I have vegetarian shepherd's pie* in the oven, and it smells SO GOOD. It needs to be ready now.

*(Made out of vegetarian shepherds. They were a little tough to fit in the meat grinder, but the freshness makes all the difference in the end result....)

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I love Peeps, but only one or two at a time. I think Circus Peanuts are nast, but the related Chicks & Rabbits are Teh Bomb. I go on a quest every Spring to stockpile those suckers.

My mom didn't allow sugary cereal at all. I generally ate either Cheerios or Corn Flakes for breakfast at home.

Same here. Honey Nut Cheerios were a special treat, and Lucky Charms were a birthday gift. Seriously.

You people are giving me a craving for Count Chocula cereal.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I found Cookie Crisp cereal on sale for $1.98 a box two weeks ago at Wal-Mart so I bought several boxes. Owen loves it.

Yeeeahhh. OWEN likes it.

Circus Peanuts are the devil. Peeps are evil but allowable.

I enjoy Peeps less now that you can get them pretty much year 'round.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

We had to beg and plead like crazy to get sugar cereals and even then it didn't happen much. Though by my sister's time I think that had changed.

Faves: Lucky Charms, Captain Crunch, Frosted Flakes, in that order.

Every so often I love those circus peanuts, though objectively speaking they're kind of gross. I've never gone for the peeps though, or most other marshmallowy stuff.

"Mixologist" sounds like the kind of thing that started tongue-in-cheek, and then it became taken over by the pompous and self-important.

Mixologist is what one of the contestants on the most recent Big Brother insisted on being called. I think no more needs to be said.

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

I only ever buy Peeps at Easter time, for that is the True And Proper Time for consuming them. The other flavors are neat, but not neat enough to buy.
