[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.

Poor Mike and Ashton! I'm glad they're both on the mend. 2009 has a lot to answer for! ::glares menacingly at it::

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.

Poor Mike and Ashton! I'm glad they're both on the mend.

This.

I want it, sj!

I thought you hated dark chocolate? Send me your new address.

I'm getting the pig!

I'm just not as big a fan of dark as I am of milk chocolate. I enjoy it paired with certain strong flavors like mint, peppermint and raspberry though. Milk can't stand up to the overpowering flavors as well, imo.

White chocolate, however, is disgusting unless used as an accent. ::shudders at memory of waxy white chocolate easter bunny in annual easter basket::

Insent!

ETA - do either you or TCG like ginger?

Got it. I'll get it out to you on Monday.

ETA - do either you or TCG like ginger?

TCG likes it, and I like it in small doses.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Oh, Nicole, I hope things get better for your guys!

My hands are already like sandpaper with the frequent handwashing and winter cold/artificial heat. Doesn't seem to matter what kind of lotion I use.

I swear by Mary Kay's Extra Emollient Night Cream. It's a lifesaver for my winter dry skin.

Thanks for the lotion recs Andi and Cashmere. I'm willing to try anything at this point.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I'm reading through the old vegetarian cookbook -- this is the 1914 edition of a cookbook originally published in 1910. So far, I've had to look up two things, both of which turned out to be early meat substitutes that are still made: Nuttolene [link] and Protose [link] .

All is well that ends in pizza.

Happy Boxing day!

Note to self:

Parking my car in the deep, wet snow on Thursday night, leaving it in the rain and snow, and then letting it all freeze solid is not unlike parking it in wet cement and walking away.
