Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Vortex, we made it last weekend. We cut them up, simmered them in just a little bit of water for about a half hour (maybe less time for only a couple of apples). Then you can either run them in the food processor or the food mill and spice/sweeten to taste.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Much ~ma for your sister, Connie.

We're going with 'Susan' for the walker. We realised it covers three fandoms - with Ivanova, Sto-Helit and Pevensie (I think it was WindSparrow who didn't like going to a Narnia place with Susan, but it was my first fandom, so I'm good with that). So Susan she is. I look forward to giving a different answer every time someone asks why.

Today in my evening class, we were taught about feminism - very badly. I tried not to laugh or correct the teacher. I should have realised that taking a sociology class, even if not in my area of expertise, was inevitably going to involve occasional sniggering behind my laptop. Much like Shir in her classes, only less angry. I don't care enough about this class to be angry. (I do wish its essay deadline wasn't the day after my dissertation deadline though. Guess which one will get prioritised?)

Edit, because apparently that's not how you spell Pevensie. Who knew?

If I have neither food processor or food mill, do you have an alternate suggestion? Will a blender work? Potato masher? Prayer?

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Once you've cooked chopped apples, they're pretty close to chunky applesauce as they are. A potato masher would work. A blender would probably work, but the result might be more of a puree than you'd want.

Vortex, you could also press them through a coarse-screen strainer (NOT a colander).

Either really. Blender if you want it really smooth, potato masher if you want it chunkier.

I have one of these. I don't know where it is, but I have it.

Or, since it's just two apples, mash them up with a fork (which I know you'll have to hand).

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I add a dab of butter, a lot of cinnamon, a little bit of brown sugar (particularly if they're tart apples), and simmer till soft and then eat without mashing. It's one of my kids' favorite things and they don't eat apple sauce.

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

Guess which one will get prioritised?

Procrastinating on the internets, if you're anything like me when faced with competing deadlines.
