Yeah, where's our British buffistas, who can speak to the important scone matters?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Blueberries are a very American fruit, though. Currants are native to Europe.

hip deep in pie
Eww. Raisins in baked goods.
megan is my raisin-in-baked-good-hating sister.
That said, currant is an acceptable scone. Just don't make me eat them. Cheddar is okay too. I'm not all that dismayed by blueberry even, but the white chocolate and cranberry, and orange cinnamon scones peddled by my Starbucks always get my "eat a muffin whitey!" hackles up.
The Greeks also had a verb (which appears only in comedy, natch) which I first encountered defined as "to shove a radish up the fundament."
The way this conversation has been rolling back and forth in and out of topics is killing me. I love you all and your spicy brains.
If anyone attempts to move me, the docs I now work for will surround me and throw up an impregnable wall of territorial ferocity and tenure.
Hooray!!

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

Now tagless for your comfort.
brenda, I'm pretty sure they're now searching for snatch bombs. I'm not so much worried for me as I am worried some TSA idiot fondling my kids. I'm torn between nudie x-rays of children and indecent groping.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Steph, you're obviously too American to understand what heresy dried blueberries are in scones.
Live free or die! Don't tread on me! Remember the Alamo!
...that's all I got in the way of jingoism.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Remember the Maine seems more appropriate as a defense of blueberries.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
It's nice, feeling liked and safe in my workplace. Strange and unfamiliar, but nice.
That's so great, JZ. You deserve it!
I continue to be sad there is no place near me to run and get bun and cheese, or even a pattie.
