Captain was looking for a pilot. I found a husband. Seemed to work out.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Strawberries are great with just sour cream and brown sugar.

TCBITW is going to turn 19 tomorrow.

Damn, we've been here a long time.

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

Is there some other anime that would appeal to someone with tastes along those lines?

I don't think that Cashmere has posted in Natter for a while, but if you ask her on Facebook, she will definitely have suggestions for you.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Strawberries are pretty awesome all on their own. You could do a bowl of them center table, and small bowls of whipped cream, creme fraiche, or plain or vanilla yogurt at each place for dipping. We prefer plain yogurt, but then we prefer sweets not too sweet, and we like the tang of the yogurt against the sweetness of the berries. Or naked. Naked berries is good.

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

Timelies all!

Well, we survived taking Mr. S to the Buffett concert. We forgot the kid's headphones at home, but Gary was able to get some earplugs at a Walgreen's. Of course Mr.S kept trying to remove them. We got home rather late, so we're tired. (luckily both Nova and the toddler waited until 9 to wake us up.)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I like a bowl of freshly washed strawberries with a bowl of powdered sugar to dip them in. So delicious!

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Toss 'em with a little chocolate balsamic!!

There's a lot to recommend in chocolate-dipped strawberries!

Ooh, I forgot. I had these at a wedding once: chocolate liqueur soaked berries with clotted cream. O.M.G.

I'm all for strawberries and cream, but I feel like as a happy birthday dessert I want something slightly more fancier--this is in place of a birthday cake, y'know? (I could just make a strawberry cake, and I might, but trying to make it gluten-free is an added challenge). I may go with a strawberry icebox cake, with gluten-free cookies? We shall see...

Meanwhile I have just less than zero motivation today. WTF self. I had the thought that I would be all productive today since I wasn't yesterday and instead...nope. Haven't left the house.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I did a chocolate cake with strawberries between the layers and on top. Worked pretty well.

In other news, global entry is amazing.
