Also, we do a lot of things involving trees. Are they all about Christmas, too?
The Economist. "Backsides Up: The New American Obsession with Buttocks and What That Means for the Dollar."
I'm willing to consider that a) there could exist good fondant (ie, the kind made with marshmallows, which I've never had), and b) there could exist someone who likes the taste of regular fondant. But the kind for these decorative cakes is literally just gelatin, glycerin, and sugar. It tastes like…
I literally snapped at a friend when they asked me if I use fondant in my cakes. Note, I make a *lot* of artistic cakes and cupcakes for my research group. And they are all 100% edible *and* delicious. Below is a cake that I made to celebrate a friend's successful Kickstart about an antarctic research station. All…
Also, I JUST HAD to look up "Sonnet to a Clam", and now I'm dead of really terrible 19th century clam puns. Thanks, internet.
For those with short attention spans:
No matter what they choose, this will forever be the new Bond theme in my heart.
I will also take it. Is there a word for a skirt-cape? Scape? Whatever it is, I'm firmly team #TeamScape. It's like a bustle, but SLEEK.

Oooh, what potential for old-timey intrigues! But seriously, they should raise both as crown royals (regardless of gender, dammit) and then, when they turn 18, have an old fashioned War of Succession. Or, if the army isn't up for it, just do a sealed-deck Magic the Gathering game to determine succession instead. …
Oooh, my goodness. I used to work right next to there. That's Emeryville CA, it's the refurbished warehouse/trendy housing/West-Oakland-spillover-crime district right across from San Francisco. It's also where Pixar is, and now I'm imagining a Pixar animator writing this ad.
That's the Bora Bora St. Regis? Well, suddenly I'm more on board with this plan.
Being accepting of your partners kinks and limitations, and communicating about them.
Bring back chatelaines! Victorian (and earlier) women had attractive clippy chains to hang from their belts, and you could get modular attachments to hold your keys, spectacles, watch, snuff box, you know, all the little everyday things.
Nah, I need the accent to go with the outfit ;-) Both Greta's and Marlene's voices are divine. (edit to add, OBVIOUSLY Janelle Monae is everything too, but my personal fantasy taste runs to non-american accents)
Yes, ma'am. And all of Greta Garbo's boy-clothes in Queen Christina. Lawdamercy, I do love me a strong European woman in men's formalwear.
I share a name with a very enthusiastically naked British professional model. Anyone searching for nekkid pics of me will get quickly distracted.
In that case, I'll have Mr. GlassesBicepsParrot.
