Pavlova is the best.
More than gravy.
It's my death row food.

Ok..I expect at least 3 more posts by you here while I am gone.
I am leaving now...in a few minutes.....soon. 
AND I expect you to continue your comedic sparring with Fata and Absolut!

Pointing at the sun and telling it to rise and set isn't exactly a sign that you tell the sun what to do, Poppy.

Because you want me to be.

Someone's not reading the company memos, I think.
lilfrk said:
Depends. Are you salaried or contract?
lilfrk said:
I don't think it fits me, really. It's just a name I pulled out of the air. Some things, like online names, shouldn't be *too* memorable or interesting... it detracts from the conversation.

All I would really like right now is a better car. I don't need a flashy car... just something a little newer and more reliable than what I have.

I still do that.

*scowls*
Yeah, I know. I just wanna be the boss of someone and preferably someone with lips like yours....*smiles* Guess I've got some work to do on technique. Suggestions anyone? Should I be more beguiling than sassy? I'm open to ideas here.
Oh well, maybe tomorrow.
Bye for now!

So if you're not conquered easily, does that mean you're hardly conquered?
Why are all the voices in my head laughing at me?
What's a good recipe with avocado in it?
Are people compelled to live, or do they choose?
Parallel or parallax? Or maybe...paranoid?
How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop?
Something you hate right now?
Something you love right now?
What kind of accent do you hate?
Are seizures sexy?
If/Then?

Yes. I believe that's correct.

This is a fair amount of work and not cheap but very festive. You need a frypan, a knife, a grater, several small bowls.
1 lemon and 1 lime OR 2 lemons, juiced
2 cloves garlic, mashed or finely grated
4 Tbsp olive oil
herbs: ideally 3-4 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro, but dried basil or parsely or oregano will do instead in a pinch
1 tsp chili powder
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
Mix all of the above into a vinagrette. Set aside.
1 packet boned chicken breasts or thighs
Slice chicken into thin strips. (This is very easy if the chicken is partially frozen and is otherwise a bit of a pain in the ass.) Put in a small bowl with about 2/3 of the vinagrette. Set aside.
2 ripe avocados (won't work if they are hard)
1 clove garlic
1-2 Tbsp. mayo
3-6 Tbsp lemon or lime juice, to taste (one lemon or two limes or a mix thereof)
pinch ground coriander
Dump all in a small bowl. Mash with a fork or a handblender, if available. Set aside.
Set aside in bowls: salsa, preferably white corn and black bean type, with chopped fresh cilantro and a bit of lemon or lime juice stirred in, if you like sour cream grated mild cheddar or monterey jack cheese
2 green peppers
1 red pepper
1 big or 2 medium onions
Slice peppers into strips. Cut onion into rings or strips. Set aside.
Heat dry frypan. One by one, heat tortillas on each side, about a minute a side. Keep warm in the oven or in foil.
Add 1-2 Tbsp olive oil to the pan. Dump in your chicken. Stir and fry on med-hi until no longer pink and the marinade is mostly evaporated. Lift out the chicken and keep warm. Add the onions; stir and fry for a minute or so and then add the peppers and the remaining vinagrette. Stir and cook until the liquid is evaporated. You can return the chicken and toss it all together unless you have vegetarians at the table. Dump into a serving dish, pull the tortillas out... and eat!

Even a single-celled organism lives without consenting or choosing... but they don't self-determine or decide what their evolutionary path will be. Humans choose that and, if their choices are bad, can fail to live even as fully as a single-celled organism...
So even though we're born without asking to be, we can choose to neutralize the life we've been given.

Parallax. It's more suited to my way of life, anyhow.
Recidiva said:
Depends on how hard the Tootsie Pop can stand being licked.
Recidiva said:
I hate relatively few things. Most of the aspects of my life or other people that are hardest for me to endure are usually things that are also trying to get me somewhere important. I feel a bit short-sighted just saying that I hate them without taking the other things into account.
Recidiva said:
I love many, many, many things. My new cat is high on the list, but his ranking dropped a lot today when he got into my garbage.
Recidiva said:
I don't hate any accents, but I like some better than others.
Recidiva said:
Depends on what induces the seizure, I suppose.

Gosub.
