Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I just bought "The Inspired Vegan" by Bryant Terry. Just like his other cookbook, this one suggests a song to go with each recipe, and also either a book or a movie. I wonder how he decides which songs go with which foods. Some of them make sense, like "Salt Peanuts" by the Pointer Sisters goes with a recipe for paprika peanuts. Savory Grits with Sauteed Broad Beans, Roasted Fennel, and Thyme gets "Walkin Blues" by Robert Johnson, and Wilted Dandelion Greens with Hot Garlic Dressing and Garlic Chips is "Bessemer Bound Blues" by Ma Rainey.

Hmm. That dandelion green recipe looks really good. I wonder if/when the farmers markets around here will have dandelion greens.

The status is NOT quo.

Dammit. The vet is keeping Mia (our elder kitty now at age 12) overnight to give her fluids and do bloodwork. She’s running a fever and hasn’t eaten in two days. I really can’t handle more kitty stress so soon after Byron. Please let it be no big deal. Also, I know this vet visit is going to cost upwards of $500 that we really don’t have. I hate that I even have to think about that, but I do.

This really isn’t the way I wanted to kick off my Spring Break.

Oh, I'm starting to get it. Each meal has a theme. That one was traditionalish rural Southern food, so it got old-school blues. The next one is more urban, some more modern stuff and focusing on ingredients that you can get at most supermarkets, and that one has sixties and seventies protest music. The next meal is all made of stuff that's in season during the summer, and each recipe has a different version of "Summertime."

Healthy thoughts for little squeaker Miss Mia.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

I'm sorry, Pix. I hope she's just fine.

I hope Mia will be ok, Pix.

Thanks, everyone. I'm trying to think positive. It's just been a really stressful few weeks at work, so I'm already super emotionally burned out. Anyway. I'll know more in the morning.

sj, I'm really happy for you. Yay new house!

Fingers crossed that Mia will be okay.
