Jayne: Yeah, that was some pretty risky sittin' you did there. Wash: That's right, of course, 'cause they wouldn't arrest me if we got boarded, I'm just the pilot. I can always say I was flying the ship by accident.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I didn't notice until after I opened it, but it tastes fine.

But it would have been way better than fine last year! (I've wondered about "best by.")

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Even not at it's best, applesauce is pretty good. I guess.

Now tagless for your comfort.

I would say anything not dairy is more a guideline than a rule on the "best buy" date.

But I'm a food risk taker.

My children are lucky to be alive today. Not a good listening day and they're gnawing on my last, raw nerve.

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

Theremin alert.

Punishingly Intricate

But I'm a food risk taker.

I'm not a risk taker, really, but I am an obsessive checker of Stilltasty.

I have had soda that went bad. But I think it was diet. And way past the expiration.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Lisah, how about there: [link]

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

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

How far past expiration is OK to eat dark chocolate. Have some with "best by" date of January. "Equal Exchange" if brand makes a difference.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

It is always ok to eat dark chocolate. If you die from it, then at least you died eating dark chocolate.

Photoshop is eating my brains. It is zombie photoshop. And I wanted to get this newsletter done and printing so I could do other stuff all day but instead I am dinking around in photoshop. Someone tell me now is not the time for my learning curve, and I can put together a perfectly functional version with cute kids in the cover photo, and it will all be fine. My donors are not going to freak out over the brightness and contrast levels of the image of cute kids laughing.
