Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

That's too bad.

In happier news: 8 Old Masters paintings are being repatriated to the Netherlands.

Cilantro doesn't taste like soap to me, but last I checked, walnuts taste like bitter despair.

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

Cilantro=Soap. Ginger=Even worse soap.

but last I checked, walnuts taste like bitter despair.

I gotta remember not to put bitter despair in your brownies.

Though I'm kind of thinking that could work as a perverse marketing scheme.

"Why settle for a Chocolate Orgasm when you could have The Brownies of Bitter Despair? Or possibly leave one for your boss."

I was about to rush to Ginger's defense, "Ginger is a very nice soap if anything. Just ask Mr. Peabody!"

But then your meaning became plain to me.

Further cookie note to self: No Ginger Soap Snaps for Scrappy.

Wow. I love all of those things. I must have very insensitive tastebuds or something.

Carouselly flashmobby goodness.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Poor Jonathan Rhys-Meyers. I hope he gets some serious help.

The cilantro thing is very specific, and I don't think applies to other foods.

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

Ginger=Even worse soap.

Whoa, really? I am so grateful for my not very sensitive tastebuds. The only thing that tastes like soap to me is lavender, and that's really just that I am used to lavender-scented detergents.

The cilantro thing is very specific, and I don't think applies to other foods.

I was surprised, because there is almost nothing in the world that tastes bad to me. I mean, things taste less good, but usually it is how they are cooked. The only other thing I do not like is melon.
