Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Coconut flour is certainly being discussed all over the place.

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

Oh, some new kind of lime that's tiny, but my audio cut out while he was explaining that so I didn't get the details.

Key lime or that fingerling thing that looks awesome but freaks me out?

Upon further googling, fingerling limes is good enough.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I like beets and cabbage too, but I've got Russian Jew in me. It's practically required cuisine.

Didn't key lime trend years ago?

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

My paternal granddad use to put a ton of turmeric in stew and soup, back in the 70s. Maybe it's retro?

I gave some friends salted, dark-chocolate-coated caramels for Yule a few years ago.

ETA: I read "fingerling limes" as "fingering limes" and was briefly disconcerted.

I remember TJ's salted caramel at Kat's a couplethree years ago. A house ago.

Fingerling I think, yeah.

Heh, you are right, Burrell, beets and cabbage are cultural imperatives for me, too. I associate turmeric with Tibet, I don't think I can lay claim to that. It's probably used other places and my family tree does extend to a variety of locales.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Burrell, I am a fan of found poems.

I'm not a fan of turmeric, but I couldn't figure out why.

On my way home, I got a phone call from an unknown number. The voice on the other end said he was from HR and he needed my social security number to process my being hired by my new school. I felt pretty qualmy but he did say he was from HR and he knew the name of the school.

Then he wanted my employee number, which made me feel better. And we talked about my actual hire date at the new place. So as of November 19, I'll be employed elsewhere!

Congrats, Kat! It does seem like there ought to be better protocol for that question.

Estate honey, that was another thing. I forget that my honey obsession does not necessarily reflect mainstream tastes.

Exciting!

#1 son came home with a super fat lip and a paste of turmeric was suggested in my Google, but he wasn't going for that. I did manage to get him to ice, and apply honey. He tried a tea bag for a half second but said it stung too bad(odd huh?)

No clue what happened. Best guess is maybe a bug bite, but it is pretty huge and nasty looking. It did respond somewhat to the ice so I drugged him and sent him to bed.
