Shir, God always wants us to have cake.
What should I do, then? Send her a gift? Sacrifice? … Unholy fruit basket?

[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Shir, there's the principle of "eating what is given you" even if it is not perfectly according to dietary rules. At least when I'm cooking for Catholics during Lent and forget about the no meat on Fridays thing, they often shrug their shoulders and dig right in to the food. And didn't someone here mention Buddhist nuns eating meat because it was given them? Or was that in (gasp) some other forum.

All is well that ends in pizza.
With all the mention of Matzo, I have a earworm filk going off in my head.
Hey! Hey! Hey, hey, hey!
Matzo, matzo man
I've got to be, a matzo man
Matzo, matzo man
I've got to eat that matzo!

Is a filk earworm a filkworm?

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

Yeah, monks & nuns in Thailand aren't picky, afaik. (Although in Japan I understand they're vegetarians.) Thais have combined Buddhism with their ethos of "eat anything that doesn't move fast enough to escape" by the simple and pragmatic method of letting non-Buddhists do that pesky slaughtering bit. So long as you didn't personally kill the critter in question, it's all peachy. I confess, I find this a touch disingenuous, but, hey - yummy food.
-ma to Barb's mum.
Shir - your con sounded great, btw! Much envy! And...I kind of want to be all "Go cake! Choose cake!" but I figure you know which is most important to you, and you'll go with that. (But the cake does sound teh yum.)
