Yay! Happy Hanukkah, Shir! We're still a few hours from sundown here, but my mind is already on latkes....
Nobody can tell Marmaduke what to do. That's my kind of dog.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

“Not dead yet!”
Cooking hivemind question: any recs out there for a good herb and spice-based cookbook? My sister has decided to thumb her nose at the cooking gods who blessed us with black thumbs and has been growing her own herbs and would like a good, basic cookbook.
I've been browsing Jessica's Biscuit and this is what I've come up with as possibilities:
I'm afraid the Herbfarm book may be a bit beyond her. She has NO patience at all when cooking and is liable to just skip steps if the recipes are too involved.
Suggestions?

Happy (pre)Hannukah, y'all!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I'm supposed to go to a show tonight, but it's 30 below or thereabouts, and I just don't want to leave the apartment. I love the band, and it's a benefit for a children's hospital, and yet. Too. Frigging. Cold.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
WAY Too frigging cold, if you ask me.

Does the money go to the children's hospital anyway? You're clear, if so....

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
FTR, Cindy McCain's Oatmeal Butterscotch cookies? They kinda blow.

That's because Cindy McCain probably never goes into the kitchen, nor do most campaign staffers.
