DH is away until very late on Saturday, so there is dog walking, house cleaning and gardening to do. Then a movie on Saturday night. This should not be too bad, since one of our dogs had evidence of fleas when she went to the vet, so this week I washed EVERYTHING. And sprayed and vacuumed everything else.
There are no absolutes. No right and wrong. Haven't you learned anything working for the Powers? There are only choices.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Just realized I didn't explain quite why Cafe Gratitude scares me. This is their menu: [link] It's fairly typical for a vegan restaurant menu, actually a pretty good selection, but every dish, rather than being named something normal like "Caesar salad," gets a name like "I am dazzling." And you must order by saying, "I am dazzling," and then the server repeats back to you, "You are dazzling."

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Ewwwww. Cutesy concepts that you're required to play along with are a NO in restaurant service. Or any other kind of customer service.

Our wings are not tired.
Hil, totally. I went to the one in the Sunset when my cousins were visiting and was commpletely creeped out with the names and that schtick. But then, I loathe forced gaiety.

Even their kids menu is stuff like "I am a winner" and "I am a star." (And looking at the actual food on their menu more closely, it's a lot more raw food than I'd noticed before.)

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
Not to mention gramatically unsound. The name of the item is "I am dazzling," not "you are dazzling."

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
Wow - that makes me laugh and laugh. I would have to order an "I am not playing along" and a " You are ridiculous"
This really says it all:
Our food and people are a celebration of our aliveness.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Even their kids menu is stuff like "I am a winner" and "I am a star."
And what's with calling it their "offering for children"? Weird, indeed.

"offering for children"
Sounds more like something you give a fertility god in order to get divine favor in reproduction attempts.
