Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

Yes, tell me more. I've tried both Hello Fresh and Blue Apron. Blue Apron was better, I think, in that there were a few recipes I've actually made again! But sometimes it calls for ridiculous extra work for no good reason

Get you a wheelbarrow, a holocaust cloak, and a tall friend to light on fire.

Lol. I love this plan!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am intrigued, Jesse. Is this one where everything shows up all chopped and everything or just unprepped ingredients?

It's unprepped ingredients, but not many of them. You should be able to see menus here: [link] (along with basically full recipes, so you could just go to the supermarket, but who wants that??)

I'd totally be interested in trying, Jesse!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Just missed it.

Somehow it worked out to be a good morning/afternoon for Lyfting in Boston. Lots of positive vibes, so even though some of the traffic and streets were borked because of the parade I kept running into cheery, patient passengers including one poor guy who had a round trip from Fenway to Somerville and back again, which was pretty much through the belly of the beast Patriot Nation.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

-t, I'm sorry. I had a similar situation last week. I hate that my default response is tears when I'm angry.

You could try just a little fire.

And then little fires become big fires, and it's win-win!

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

Timelies all!

Dear commute home, why so much traffic? I mean, it's Tuesday, not Friday.
