I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

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

Soy milk comes out much higher. Soybeans don't seem particularly naturally "juicy" to me.

But if you compare dry soybeans to almonds, the soybeans have a whole lot more protein.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Do bitters taste anything like fernet? They sound like they should.

Nope! They're flavor extracts. I have cardamom and chocolate bitters, and LOVE them.

I love me some bitters. My favorite are Regan's Orange Bitters, which are heavy on the cardamom. There's, obviously, a lot of bitters out there, some alcohol-based and some glycerin-based (Fee's is the biggest glycerin-based one I know of, and they do a really good cherry bitters). The most popular one is, as said before, Angostura, with Peychaud's coming in second (you can't make a Sazerac or Vieux Carre without them). Bittermen's does a great habanero bitters.

Ahem.

I try to eat high protein, but my body FREAKS OUT without carbs, so I eat a lot of salads with chicken and English muffins with turkey and avocado. Almond milk is delicious, and is much better to bake with than soy.

My favorite are Regan's Orange Bitters

Me too! I just had my regular non-alcoholic cocktail which is tangerine juice, tonic water and Regan's Orange bitters over ice.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

You guys must stop! Now I want a wasabi pickle, an English muffin with turkey and avocado, and Hec's orange mocktail!

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

I add a little fruit juice to seltzer to try to fool myself into thinking I'm drinking soda.

True Lemon, True Lime, True Orange and a Sodastream, and I recently noticed I haven't even bought an Izze or any other drink in a restaurant for months. Water's just fine, if for some reason I don't have a sachet on me.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

But if you compare dry soybeans to almonds, the soybeans have a whole lot more protein.

Ah. That makes sense.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I need a Sodastream.

I want one, but my mother isn't psyched about it.(when I want a household object, it really is sort of tasking others)

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Is the True Orange sweet like actual orange? I only bought the lemon, lime and grapefruit (which seems to have a hint of sweet but definitely skews to the tarter grapefruits I've eaten) Trues. I love them though. The shaker of True Lemon is brilliant. I use it in all sorts of cooking. Even a little sprinkle on salads.
