[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.

You can't leave me to my own devices; my devices are Nap and Eat. -Zenkitty

I love iced tea, but I do not love sweet drinks. I wany my iced tea to taste like TEA.

I hate sweet tea. Mighty Leaf has some fruit flavored teas that aren't sweet, but my current iced tea is the 1 liter Tejava (available at TJ's). I drink three or four bottles a day.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

then add the oil in a thin stream, whisking constantly

OK, how do you do that? I can't whisk anything unless I'm holding the bowl with my left hand and whisking with my right, and then I have no more hands with which to pour the thin stream of oil.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

-t, you need to have the bowl on something that'll keep it from scooting across the counter; I use a rubber glove (the cuff part, not the hand part ... just to overclarify). A towel might work, too.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

-t makes a good point. I can see myself making a huge mess. I don't think a towel or rubber thing would stop me from whisking the bowl right off the counter. See, this is why I don't cook! Too dangerous.

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.

Sunil, you are definitely a good guy. In fact, if there were more guys like you, there would likely be fewer girls in martial arts classes. (Just the ones whose primary motivation is self-defense would drop out, not the ones who are there because it's cool to kick ass.)

Zen, this is why I advocate the blender method.

Yeah, I generally use a damp dish towel to anchor the bowl in place. Or if you have one of those rubber grippy things for opening jars, those work really well.

Mighty Leaf has some fruit flavored teas that aren't sweet

All the Mighty Leaf herbal teas infusions I've tried have been way sweet - not sugary sweet, but more like hot fruit juice than herbal tea.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I did deprive her of a potential adventure where she befriends a homeless guy and gains a new perspective on life. Although she figured that the homeless guy would probably murder her instead.

Speaking of homelessness, she's going to be homeless in a couple weeks (as is Chorus 3), so if any SFistas have any leads on apartments or people looking for roommates, please let me know.
