That's because they were poor!
They were not! Just not rich like the Wheelers and the Lynches. Any family that was going to let Trixie have a horse can't be that poor.
I don't salt my burgers, but otherwise I do season the fuck out of them.
And what's the fun in becoming an immortal demon if you're not regular, am I right?

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
They were not!
Her brother drove a jalopy! (Hee -- jalopy. I still only think of that one car, because it was where I learned the word.) No, of course they weren't actually poor, just book-universe poor. I can't believe I don't know who the Lynches are. I should re-read those books, or maybe I shouldn't.

Because books.
It is, sara.
Cherry Ames was my girl, aside from Nancy Drew. I think I only read a few Trixies. Oh, but I loved the Beany Malone books, too!

I'd never noticed how much Keith Carradine looks like Stephen Collins until I half watched Because I Said So. Which my TiVo recorded because Colin's in it, but he has one line and it's a profoundly irritating movie. At least I didn't use much attention on it.

I loved Trixie Belden! I didn't read Cherry Ames until adulthood, and then only shortly before I read the lesbian takeoff of Cherry Ames. Hee. Which was awesome.

Good, because I've already slapped a hot washcloth soaking in both on my face. I'm sure some of it is several sweaty days in makeup. Will be more diligent in washing my face before and after digging into some sweaty house project.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Yeah, I'm not opposed to a little onion. Or worcestershire sauce. Mmmm.
I loved the Lea & Perrin's commercials.
Stentorian voice: "Once you were dry. I MADE YOU JUICY!"It was like porn for hearing impaired amnesiacs.

Is this still related to the burger discussion?

I made a chocolate layer cake for my wife and it didn't cool off to frost in time for the kids to have some. We told them that they could have a little bit at breakfast tomorrow. Is it bad I have the urge to deny them cake in the morning and tell them that the cake is a lie?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
There's a refrigerated vending machine at the school that has what alleges to be cheeseburgers.
I suppose you're supposed to heat them up in the microwave.
I wonder if they've EVER sold any.
