This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

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

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Sheesh, Hil. What an incompetent waitress!

Also, poor training by the restaurant.

Our wings are not tired.

Wow! Maybe she should practice 'let me ask the kitchen' for a response, or consider another profession.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I've had kombucha. All I know is, it looks like iced tea and tastes terrible.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I can understand not knowing kombucha, but she doesn't know what sauerkraut is?

It's like face-blindness, but for fermentation.

Always Anti-fascist!

Eaten lots of kraut, don't really know how they prep it. But that's when you smile pretty and ask the kitchen like Laura said.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

I actually came across someone blogging about making their own sauerkraut. It seems it's basically shredded cabbage and salt. You can add other stuff - caraway seeds seem to be popular and some, seemingly, add sugar - but you mix them up, the salt pulls out the cabbage liquid, and you set it aside to ferment a bit.

I thought this seemed like it belonged in Bitches.

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

I noticed a synagogue on some property right in town, a block from the beach, which isn't something I usually see in Maine. (We usually go to a different town.) I asked my mom about it -- that property has to be incredibly expensive, and it's surrounded by stores and restaurants on every side, and judging by the architecture, it's been there for a long while -- and she said that this used to be the town that all the Jews vacationed in, back when a lot of the other towns didn't allow Jews. (Old Orchard Beach, for those who know the area.)
