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.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oh yes, lots of ~ma for Beth's friend.

I love me some lentils. Mmmm, mulligatawny....

sj, what kind of curry did you make with the sweet potatoes? We got some today at the farm and I've been intrigued since you mentioned it yesterday. Can you post the recipe? (or, the vague recipe stylings?)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oy, my grandmother's in the hospital. My grandfather died about a year ago, and my grandmother fell and broke her pelvis the day after the funeral, and it's been one thing after another after that. They think she had a small heart attack, which is not good, since she had a triple bypass several years ago. But there's some kind of infection going on too. My mother is using the word "puzzled."

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

The status is NOT quo.

Thanks, everyone. I've had blood drawn and my vitals checked multiple times, but the ER is totally slammed. I'm still waiting for a room to see a doctor.

I used this recipe as general guideline. However, I did not cook the sweet potatoes first, just let them simmer in the curry until they were soft enough. I didn't have spinach so I used swiss chard, and it wasn't quite hot enough so I added some hot paprika and I added a dash of cream just because. No, I never faithfully follow a recipe faithfully, why do you ask?

Here is the pomegranate quinoa recipe if anyone is interested.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Lots of nothing ~ma, Pix. I hope that you can get seen, soon.

Dana, lots of ~ma and good thoughts for your grandmother.

smonster, it was so good to "see" you this evening! I think this was the night of homesickness. Skyping made T. cry and say that he wished he was back in NC, made you homesick, made *me* homesick, and I'm home. I realized that I hadn't really hung out with A&B and the triplets in two years, since Friends' Thanksgiving of '09, and that I've barely seen G&G and Q. since last year. We're all so busy, and esp. all the parents. But at least we all still get together once a year. And you saw: HOLY CRAP IT WAS CHAOS.

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

I've had blood drawn and my vitals checked multiple times, but the ER is totally slammed. I'm still waiting for a room to see a doctor.

What hospital are you at? I hope you get seen by a doctor soon. I'm not used to the idea of having blood drawn before seeing a doctor.

I'm at Huntington. I'm finally in a room. The pain is worse, so I'm hoping to get some answers soon. It's a good hospital. ND and I have both spent more time here than we'd like and have been very impressed by them overall they were just really busy today
