[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.

Yeah, I've been trying to give okra the old college try, but it isn't my favorite.

I love okra. If you don't like the slime, cook it with something acidic like tomatoes.

Trader Joe's spice soybeans are of the yum. An entire package is a light meal for two or a hearty meal for one. They also work well as ingredients in other dishes. Made them with coucous and they worked well. They come in an envelope which means they store and transport easily.

The burn on my leg is turning an interesting shade of purplish-gray. I also noticed a thing on my ankle that I'd thought was a bug bite looks more like a burn now, but I have no idea how I got it.

Hil, can you have someone look at that? It sounds painful.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Scrappy, what I found in bellydance is that even the most body-conscious beginners lose that shyness as they learn to focus on function and purpose rather than unrealistic beauty expectations. You can can do it!!

Nora, thanks for sharing that recipe, looks good.

Ouch, Hil. Take care of that burn.

Cass, you might want to tuck a small tub of Damp-Rid under your sink for a week or two till the wood dries out, just to prevent lingering damp and musty.

Good call! I need to get some of that. I'll get the hangy one, I think it'll work in the space.

Sparky! Your phone isn't accepting calls, but I spoke to Whale and confirmed.

I put a cool-ish compress on the burn when it first happened, and it's not hurting too much now unless something touches it. It seems similar to the one I got last year when my arm touched the top of the oven as I was taking out some cookies. I'll keep an eye on it and go to a doctor if it doesn't seem to be healing properly.
