Plain old Morton's is bitter to me.

Are you tasting iodine?

Maybe? I just know it's bitter compared to the pink stuff (which I did NOT buy just because it's pink, ISTG).

ION, I am craving a cheeseburger with avocado and bacon SO BAD right now. It's almost 1 a.m. A burger is not sensible (b/c it's past my bedtime, and I don't think making my body digest a hunk of meat while I sleep is very nice) or feasible (since this is a mostly vegetarian house, and there's not even store-brand ground beef in the freezer with which I could attempt a poor facsimile of said burger).

Bah. (Also, a friend on FB reminded me of how good black beans are on burgers, and now I AM SO HUNGRY. I just started prednisone at noon for my back; could I have steroid munchies after only 12 hours? Ye gods.)

I think 'roid munchies could hit that fast.

Burger burger burger. Damn you, prednisone!

I do agree with you Steph about Mortons. My sister says I use weird salt, but I swear it's just my aversion to plain old table salt.

ION, I am craving a cheeseburger with avocado and bacon SO BAD right now.

Now I am too. Grrrrrr. I have no avocado, no bacon and no burger. I do have a car...

Yes, yes, they did kill me. I've been killed.

I...may be slightly overinvested in this sport.

These chips are sea salt and unnamed vinegar. And salty! And puckery! I could lose parts of my face this way.

Too much vinegar is not good. Malt vinegar is mild without being sweet. Now I'm longing for fish and chips with sea salt and malt vinegar. The great thing is you add your own salt and vinegar, so you end up with it as salty and puckery as you want and no more.

I cannot get over this necklace on Etsy: [link] It's an actual luna moth, preserved in resin. Dayum. I don't know that I'd wear it, but it's gorgeous. I love luna moths.

eta and now I have tattoo idea I can't shake - lifesize Luna moth in flight on my outer thigh.

Hey, Steph, when you come by, can you recommend an actual book on shibari or kinbaku? I despair of ever finding a non-sexual class/workshop (unless you have leads for me too--everything google turns up is decidedly on the erotic side).

I've seen these titles, but don't even know if they're the best ones to consider:

• Shibari You Can Use. Looks accessible, but then again, erotic macrame?
• Bondage for Sex. Started the search. Although I don't want smut in my classes, I'm okay with it in the books.
• Showing You The Ropes--Here are your Knotty Boys. Good?
• Back On The Ropes. Them again. What's different about this book?
• The Seductive Art of Japanese Bondage. Now's the time I'd really like to leaf through the book to see what the angle is. Not even a blurb on bn.com.

Thanks if you can, never mind if you can't!
