It's official: the 24th is mine to do with as I please! It's all happening!
Kaylee: Is that him? Mal: That's the buffet table. Kaylee: Well how can we be sure, unless we question it?

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!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
JZ, I stopped by and looked at the two Irving Street places. No good. Each only has three spa chairs. My local up at Laurel Village has five, so I'll make them block us in for next Friday - whoa. It's really just in a week? How cool is that?

Yay for Lilty in Boston!
I always use 84 --> 684 --> Saw Mill Parkway, and have never had much trouble.
You know, for just a second there, I was going to suggest that you could meet me for lunch or summat in Hartford, as it's on your way. And then I remembered, uh, it's Hartford, and butt-ugly (and I'll be around for both NYC and Boston, most likely), so, never mind. t /pointless

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Sweet!
And Laurel Village has a Noah's too, right? Does it still have a Books, Inc?

Who? moi??
Deb, Email me with what I am doing when. My mind is a whirling bowl of mush right now. I seem to have lost the instructions for tomorrows test. Or not. I am so muddled.

You forgot the part where you'll be sleeping at my house the morning we leave...

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I think the only thing a kosher berry pie requires is no lard - make a butter crust instead. From what Nilly told me, basic butter, eggs and milk are not an issue, provided they come from cows. But organic is even more of a surety.
I've actually found that organic eggs are much less likely to be kosher than regular ones. Some brands are worse than others, but I've had a few cartons of organic eggs where 4 or 5 of the dozen had blood. t edit: I don't keep totally kosher, but I do always check eggs. I've found a few brands of organic eggs that are usually fine, but there are others where I've had a lot of problems. Until I started using organic eggs, I never understood why we always had to check them, because I'd never actually seen a blood spot.
Also, yes, any milk with USDA approval (which is pretty much any milk being sold in supermarkets) is considered kosher, but you get into a lot more issues when you start cooking things -- the oven and the pie plate have to be kashered, and all the ingredients need to have kosher certification (except for the ones that don't, which I can never remember), and you need to check the eggs for blood spots, and probably a few other things that can't think of right now.
(Different people follow slightly different rules. Best bet is to ask Nilly.)
