Jill Pantozzi is no longer the editor of The Mary Sue. As she's not going to another job, I presume she was forced out. Lot of defections from that site.
I gave up on it after the big merger. What a waste.

I stuck with it, and have (IMO) found it to be much the same as before: it's rather less Gizmodo-like than I had feared.
I do wonder why Pantozzi is leaving, though.

Yesterday at the grocery store I was buying ice cream and saw a new flavor: almond poppyseed. I love almonds, and like poppy seeds in sweet things, so though that sounded like it could be really neat. A grown up sort of flavor. Sadly, no. The almond doesn't really taste like anything and the poppy seeds are fine but not enough. Boo--now I have almost a full pint of ice cream I don't want. Do I throw it out? Quickly find a recipe I can use it in to bring to a BBQ?? No idea. Sadness!!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Anyone else immediately think, "Eat a muffin, whitey!"?

An almond poppyseed muffin probably would've been much tastier!
Oddly, i do not like poppy seeds on savory things like bagels or bread. Or maybe it's in things vs on the outside of things?

Maybe add amaretto?

Do poppy seeds even have a taste?
Connie, I can't see the pic (sold out?) but I will always vote yes to PURPLE.

That's a lovely dress, Connie!
I'd probably mix some vanilla extract in the ice cream to up the flavor, and then I'd serve it on top of homemade brownies.

From 5-7, I seriously thought about going to the pool. But in the end, actually getting out of bed proved a hurdle too great.
Have to dry my hair and put away electronics, but then I'll be packed. Should rouse my driver/ fellow traveler, unless the cats have already managed that...
