See, in my fantasy, when I'm kissing you... you're kissing me. It's okay. I can wait.

I don't understand this latte powder nonsense. I mean--is it milk powder? Why is it vanilla flavored? WTF does it have to do with a latte?? I give up. (i am, however, happy that my iPhone knows to capitalize WTF)

I'm a bit more nervous about Germany, but there aren't going to be any easy games at this point.

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

Coffee Bean tea lattes are all vanilla lattes. They have vanilla powder in them. And milk. And foam. Your average unvanilla tea latte tastes a lot like really milky tea. That's what sets Coffee Bean's lattes apart from the rest.

I don't get how that's confusing.

Which would you rather the US got?

I was reading in the paper this morning that the US has never beaten Germany, so I'm wary of them. Not that I know all that much about football. Well, if it's not the US-ian sport.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

because they should call it a vanilla tea latte and not just a tea latte. And they should use vanilla flavored tea or a syrup. and I still think tea latte makes no sense.

I think Serbia may be more likely. If both Germany and Serbia win as probably expected, then Serbia would have to overcome Germany's 3 goal advantage in goal differential to win the Group. My guess is that we'll get Serbia and England will get Germany.

I wouldn't assume Serbia is going to win. Yes, they beat Germany 1-0, but Germany played more than half the game a man down.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I got callaloo (amaranth) in my CSA haul this week. Anyone know how to use it?

(I also got approximately three million zucchini, but those I at least know how to cook and what they taste like.)

But if they used vanilla flavoured tea I couldn't get Earl Grey one morning and English Breakfast another and Chai on Wednesday. Because they're really not going to have vanilla flavours of every single tea they make. So I vote no. Also, what difference would syrup make over powder?

The naming would clear things up, I agree.

Also, Australia's tie with Ghana was also a game where the socceroos played a man down for more than half the game.
