Shit's all sorts of different now.

Cooking with Luis

I LOVE HIM!!!

When he makes the fruit kebabs and the big paw paw melon or whatever loses it's netting and he ye;;s, "THE PAW PAW IS NAKED!" cracks me up every. single. time.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

our goal was never to give D a name that our special little snowflake would have all to himself

To be clear, we are not looking for a EWNEEK name, either. Just hoping to avoid several of them in a class, you know? It's really interesting how you think of a name, think it's pretty unusual, and then it places high on the list. I'm thinking of Avery (girl), which I used to really love and is now on the list. How does that happen exactly?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I love this one, where 2 kids cook recipes from the Alinea cookbook (to prove it's not beyond the skills of a home cook).

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

Once those laser printer labels became popular, office people started going, "Avery. That would make a nice girls name."

Oh, totally - I can't think of a single social situation in my life where I've been the only Jessica in the group. (But I still love my name.)

Bwah! I remember it was part of a road name in San Diego many years ago and it struck me as sweet and kind of Southern (which I am) and I liked it. Fast forward 7 years and it's in the top 50. I just wonder how that happens.

Blame Murphy Brown.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I'll always think of Avery as a boy's name because of Charlotte's Web.

How does that happen exactly?

It seems like it's just follows fashion trends when a sound catches on. Here's an old article pondering the same question:
