Because books.

I've decided not to click on any more disturbing links today.

I think the Mullany is too casual, ita. I love the first one, and I think the third would look different (as in better) with different stockings and shoes.

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

That kid could be Deena's.

I was discussing Jamaican homophobia the other day, and was asked "Uganda bad?" It was with a sickening relief that I could answer "No, not Uganda bad." We are bad, but there are random bursts of outness that flabbergast me. In a good way. My sister works closely with the gay community, and her (stripped for confidentiality reasons) stories are fascinating. And sometimes depressing.

I'm so sorry msbelle. That sucks. I do not understand your crazy health care system.

ita, I love the Evening Enchantments dress!

Anthropologie had an expensive and disappointing range of dresses. Modcloth was much more varied and interesting. But the description of the third dress now has me wondering--what if now is a good time to indulge my longtime craving for a cheongsam? I could even go all the way and find a Chinatown tailor and have it made to fit.

Anyone have a quick easy method for roasting bell peppers? You know, for me, the cooking impaired.

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

It's always a good time.

I like cheongsams. Or maybe I should say I like it when women wear them.

Polter, is there any development on the Indian vacation front?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Now is a great time for a custom-tailored cheongsam.

Anyone have a quick easy method for roasting bell peppers?

In the broiler is fastest - just do about 5-10 minutes per side until they're blackened all over. (On foil so you don't have to clean pepper juice off your broiler pan.) Then put them in a bowl & cover for a few minutes to let them soften and you can rinse the skins & seeds off under running water.

Oh, can you recommend a place?
