Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

In celebration, my boobs will attempt to cheerlead, thus: *(.)(.)/*

LOVE!

That goes for the rest of you all, too

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I feel lucky I have lower standards for tropical fruit. Even though I know that tropical and sub-tropical fruit I grow here in CA won't get the heat (and sometimes humidity) it needs to develop peak flavor, I'm still excited to be able to grow it.

I'm a member of the CA Rare Fruit Growers and I know some of our members have reported sighting very good imported mangoes but I think you have to really have an eye for the different varieties to spot it. I came to mangoes late in life because the first couple I had must have been unripe and there's little I hate more than that astringency you get from unripe mangoes/bananas/persimmons.

amych, that boobcheer is killing me! Hahaha!

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

The peanut butter worked! Thank you, P-C! I had forgotten all about that in the face of six-year-old tears.

Three cheers for Encyclopedia Brown!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Kat, I forgot to say how great that big CA Donors Choose donor is! Good times. I was trying to explain DC to a coworker, and she was like, "So, it's like, I want to take my class on this awesome field trip?" I said, "Yeah, some of the time....or they just need books."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The boobcheer is like unto porn poms.

I paced my drinks poorly today. Everything I have is mango. That's a little heavy.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Great news Perkins!

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

All the local mangoes from someone's tree for a buck are the best part about being here.

Mango butter? I only say that because I have peach butter (thanks Jess!) in the slow cooker as I type.

ETA: And that's only true because my amazing super actually went into my apt to turn the slow cooker on because I forgot to.

That which does not kill you should RUN

You could chunk and freeze the mango for use later in smoothies. (Cup full of frozen fruit, cup of milk, blend, drink. I love using frozen fruit because it means I don't need to mess about with ice.)
