I look more rad than Lutheranism

What kind of dishes are Caribbean, Hil? (I'm waiting for dinner to cook, and I'm really hungry, so talking about food is the next best thing.)

I love rioja

NOM, rioja. I loved just sitting down and asking for "una rioja" and drinking whatever they gave me, it was all good.

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

It looks like lots of different sorts of breads with fillings, lots of beans and rice, a bunch of things made with squash, and most of the sauces are heavy on the onions, garlic, peppers, and parsley or cilantro. A few okra recipes, lots of things that use plantains, some curried things, and a kind of bread called Buss-Up-Shut Roti. (Note: pretty much everything I know about Caribbean food comes from this cookbook, which was written by a woman from Barbados, and which I haven't read too closely yet. This is just the general impression I'm getting from flipping through it.)

Is parsley part of the Cajun Holy Trinity of spices with onion and garlic, or is that celery?

I thought it was bell peppers.

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

Onion, bell pepper, and celery. Sort of a variation on mirepoix (onions, carrots and celery), as I learned it.

That all sounds yummy.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I just RSVPd to come to work in the middle of the night for the MSL landing.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Aww, nerdcakes! I would totally do that too, given the chance.
