Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Oooh! They're gorgeous. I have missed your shoe posts so much.

Teppy, I'm always impressed that you make real food at lunch time. I never have the energy to do that. Thank goodness for cheese sticks and veggie packets for ltc.

It's pouring rain, and I'm soaked because the rain doesn't make ltc move any faster.

I just hit my steps for the day and it's not even 1 yet. No wonder I'm tired on the days ltc goes to school.

I don't do that for every lunch. I almost always have turkey/swiss/lettuce rolled up in a corn tortilla, and some cheese cubes. I've been trying to get more veggies, so sometimes I microwave a Green Giant frozen veggie thing, or have soup. But on days when I have time and spoons, I've been trying to roast up some Brussels sprouts. (Also, Tim doesn't care for Brussels sprouts, so if I want to eat them, it's easier to make them for lunch.)

P.S. I did make them for lunch today and they were super tasty with some bacon bits crumbled on top.

I had a big breakfast out while ltc was at school, but I only managed coffee for lunch.

Lunch today is cheese and an apple. Om Nom!!!

Lunch today will be leftover soup from what I made my friendns for dinner last night!

I pretty often buy premade salads or burritos from Trader Joe's for lunch. Or have tuna salad.

Glam, note that for roasting veggies it helps if they are dry before you cover in oil. If not they get more steamed, if they're dry they can get more of that nice browned tastiness.

Lunch is smushed avocados with salt and lime juice.

6 years later, I have decided I'm finally okay with making Mom's legendary artichoke dip for Thanksgiving. I'm doing a trial run tonight.

ION, THERE WAS A SPIDER IN MY TEACUP THIS MORNING. ::shudders:: A tiny one, but it had made a web and was just sitting there. NOT OKAY, UNIVERSE. NOT OKAY.

Also, I need hivemind help making a decision. There's a perfect Gothic Heroine robe on eBay right now, but the bust measurement of the robe is my exact bust measurement. Should I email the seller to ask about the waist measurement, in the theory that it's a wrap-style robe, so there's some flexibility in how it closes?
