Angel: You know, I killed my actual dad. It was one of the first things I did when I became a vampire. Wesley: I hardly see how that's the same situation. Angel: Yeah. I didn't really think that one through.

way, WAY too sweet.

It’s like being punched in the mouth by a My Little Pony.

Our wings are not tired.

If I recall correctly, peacocks are also obnoxiously noisy

True. My neighbor in Otter Lake has them and they do make a ruckus.

way, WAY too sweet.

Extra sharp cheddar is the appropriate solution here.

Today is Sumi's birthday! I do hope that all is well and that this year brings all good things for you.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Happy Sumi day!

Mmm, apple and cheddar sounds great! I have neither, alas. Will try to remember “evercrisp” next time I’m at the store

Happy, Happy Birthday, Sumi!

I am having folks over for another blind apple tasting party today! Sadly I woke up feeling like shit, my muscles all hurt for no reason (why am I apparently fighting myself in my sleep?) so I still need to clean my house and go to the store in the next few hours before people come over. I do have some evercrisp apples—the cosmic crisp and honey crisp were surprise losers at the last taste testing!

I dunno, I feel like this would be a good ad campaign.

In the style of a Skittles ad.

There was no consensus at this party—different tastes for different people. Kanzi still ranked fairly well though people did agree that the pink lady was maybe not an exemplary version of one. We did determine that often, the texture was really all that mattered because we don’t often eat apples by themselves, and that apple, mild cheese, and coffee caramel sauce worked surprisingly well together.
