reading about the SF-ers and LA-istas is making me feel, well, a little crap in the hostessing department
Don't sweat it -- Deb hostesses professionally pretty much. Nothing fancy is happening in LA.
Yeah... That went well.

F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?
Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yeah, but you're going to Disneyland (or at least some of you are). I don't know who can really beat that.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
I'm mostly joking. I think it's probably cool for Nilly ot have a little bit of chilling-out time after much flying and meeting people and general whirlwindery. Or, well, she can make up her own mind about that when she gets here. We could go dancing! To Manray! Where's Emily? Get out of the fetal position you went into when I said that!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
but I wouldn't know where to look for them other than by random Googling.
Just walk down Harvard Ave. in Brookline.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
If you want some recommendations for which ones are supposed to be good, I can ask around; I've got a bunch of relatives who live in Brookline and keep kosher.

Hil, if you could get a recommendation for Chinese places, that would be good. And any other recommendations would be good, too!

For Chinese, every time we've visited them, we've gone to Shalom Hunan. I'll send my aunt an email asking for other recommendations.

What is even happening?

Yes, please (and if you could please ask if there are any resources (bakeries, shops, etc.) from Boston north--to like Burlington, or something, that would be great).
Silly, mememe question for Nora. I generally can't eat Chinese food, because I have mildish reactions (hives, headaches, nausea) to things with MSG. What's the name of this restaurant? I'd like to check with them on MSG use. Usually, there are some foods that don't have it, and so I stick to those. Also, is it literally Kosher, or just Kosher-style (because there's a difference, and I think Nilly is strict enough, that Kosher style wouldn't be much better than taking her out for a cheeseburger)?
What are you doing about having food in the house, for Nilly? Here's a web resource: [link]
Don't forget plenty of disposable plates, and flatware, too. If you've ever used your mugs for soups (which probably contain animal products), you'll want to get disposable cups that handle hot, as well.
