I had a houseguest (Carole Blymire, Nora!) in July who has Celiacs and it was actually kind of fun to figure out what to have on hand for her. We ended up eating really well (thanks to her doing all of the cooking - I got a little taste of what Jilli and Pete got when they had their friend the nutritionist living with them!) and I surprised her by having Bob's Red Mill gluten-free steelcut oatmeal AND some Mrs May's snacks.
I'm just waiting to see if I pass out. Long story.

Our Heather has gotten her own apartment! I'm very happy for her (and she's still nearby), but oh lord, I miss having someone who cooks staying with us.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How white is your neighbourhood? Detroit actually made me gasp out loud.

I sometimes ask if the menu is already selected. I do live in TX and I don;t eat red meat or pork.
There's some pretty good Indian around town. Also Thai. You might like this place as well [link]

Wow, fascinating. Baltimore is still very segregated (not shocking, it's pretty hard to not realize this).

I mean, I knew that about Detroit. I lived there. I read the articles. I got the stares. But every time I see the pictures it makes me so sad.

The person I'm talking to has puppies crying in the background. It's difficult to work when my entire sub-brain is going "Cuddle the puppies! Make them stop crying!"
Stupid weird biological clock that wants baby animals.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I am also fascinated by the varying population densities of cities.
