I'm hungry. I also have zero food in the house. Yes, these things may be related. I really need to suck it up and go to the grocery store.

Theo, while I hadn't spoken to my mother for years before she died, it was world-wobbling to realize I was a person without parents. Like being on the front-line of life without someone to potentially hide behind.

(Is this why people cringe when I mention that my uncle-in-law loves me best and bought me a creme brûlée torch? I am very safe with it.)
Pete is still appalled that my parents gave me a crime brûlée torch for Christmas. He feels they, of all people, should have known better.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

If I lived where you do, I would totally use that as an excuse for chicken and waffles.

I bought CJ a creme brûlée torch and I still shake my head at myself. But it means if I buy the ingredients, he will make creme brûlée.

I don't have a creme brulee torch. But I also don't make creme brulee. Not sure which direction is the causal relatioship, though.
What kind of mint is in mojitos? I mean, if I were to grow it myself? It's after Labor Day, almost, so there's a mojito set at the thrift store, and I have spearmint from the farmer's market.

What is a mojito set?

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

They don't need to be related. I use my torch to sear chicken skin, for instance.

I would think whatever mint you have is the right mint for a mojito.
Mmm, creme brûlée. Might have to make one of those tonight.

I think the most commonly sold mint would be spearmint, which is what I would use for a mojito. I heard some people prefer peppermint. Chocolate mint might be interesting.
