Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
[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.
My cat goes nuts when she hears the crinkle of the wrapping, because she loves the smell of the mint
My cat, Max, used to get stoned on Icy-Hot and Ben-Gay. I mean, seriously, kitty crack, writhing on the floor, tearing around the house in a frenzy, stoned.
Cats - the original cheap drunk.
If I delay washing my hair after swimming until I get home and the cat gets a chance to smell my chlorinated hair, she'll bury her nose in it and start chewing. She's done that when I've colored my hair, as well.
I just tell my cat "Don't lick my teeth."
I'm the same way about wintergreen!
Me too! Pepto Bysmol never helped me feel better - it would always make me worse. Shopping for tooth paste and mouth wash can be an ordeal trying to figure out what this year's code word for wintergreen is. One time at a health food store I was buying an all-natural tooth paste, and I had the owner of the store call the manufacturer to find out for sure what flavor it was. It was worth the effort, though, because it tastes good.
I like mint, cilantro, lemongrass and broccoli just fine. Not crazy about green peppers but have no particular objection to them, just don't like 'em as much as red and yellow (and orange, yum). Like gin, rum, Fernet, absinthe, and all varieties of bitters in moderation. Hate carrots, cooked or raw, except in carrot-ginger soup, hate black licorice, hate peas and most green beans, feel mostly indifferent to white wine, and cannot taste anything in Scotch but the burning, the terrible burning. And that's about it for my hateration. I may possibly be the opposite of a supertaster.
I wonder if my cat likes mint. Lately she's been trying to stick her nose in my mouth when I say goodbye to her and if I haven't just brushed my teeth I'm usually chewing gum when I'm leaving the house.
I also don't like cauliflower, so I often skip the veggie mixture at restaurants--they tend to give you a blend of carrots, broccoli, and cauliflower.
California blend! I actually like all of those things but school lunches ruined the combination for all time.
I love all kinds of mint. And of broccoli. And I'm good with green peppers, but roasted red peppers are becoming the mango coulis of this decade. Seriously, enough already.
No to cilantro and all but minimal lemongrass.
When I was growing up I would only eat raw veggies, and even then it was mostly peas straight out of the freezer.
Someone here told me that the reason my cat freaks out over mint is that it and catnip are both in the same family.
