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

Jilli, do you think the average American woman cares about pockets? It seems like there's more to do than just making them available--entire silhouettes have to change, and I can't see even an sizable minority of women digging that.

I mean, I wish I had more useful pockets, but only a few of my clothes has anywhere to put a pocket or three that would do more than lighten my bag.

I know there are guys out there who don't worry about sitting on their stuff, but I got pretty much nothing that a Nook-sized pocket is going to look good in and allow me to sit down.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

flea, check Serious Eats for mayo tips.

I fear I'm about to go apoplectic. Is that a lady problem as well?

I'm pretty sure the word you want is hysterical, not apoplectic.

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

Maybe I can get mr. flea to go get mayo. The recipes online make it look hard. A cup of oil mixed in a drop at a time? I am not that patient a cook.

If you've got a food processor, look at the cap on top. If there's a well with a little hole at the bottom, you can dump all the oil into that, and then it'll drip into the mixture as you run the food processor.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Happy Birthday, Hec!

I'm sorry, Dana.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

The first because it turns out a cuisinart blade doesn't go low enough to actually engage with one egg yolk

Yeah, I've run into that. Super frustrating, because making mayo seems like something the cuisinart really ought to be good for! And I know some people have gotten really good (and easily achieved) results with stick blenders, but I have not, so I can't help with that one.

Now tagless for your comfort.

There's a movie about the hysteria and the lady parts.

OMG, all the talk about lady parts in here! I feel all dirty and gross now! Even code words and innuendo aren't enough!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

There's a movie about the hysteria and the lady parts.

It's at the theater in my old neighborhood (which is 5 minutes away from where we are now), and we really need to get out to see that before it leaves.

(Maggie Gyllenhaal + vibrators = there is no bad there.)

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

flea, put a tablespoon of mustard in a bowl and pour in the broken mayonnaise slowly while beating. The immersion blender should be fine. eta: A narrow bowl is best.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

The cuisinart *should* be perfect since it has a hole in the top just for dripping oil to emulsify.
