"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

I'm ridiculously amused by this: on a website that sells American foods to people in the UK, they have an entire section of just foods used in Nigella Lawson's cookbooks.

I hope you realise you've just linked me to a site that sells Kraft mac & cheese for £1.99. I am now going to be living on that forever, and my future wife will call off the wedding and I will end up spending the rest of my life with six cats, no friends and a diet consisting solely of mac & cheese.

OR: thanks for the link - fantastic! (And much amusement over the Nigella Lawson ingredients, too.)

Happy belated birthday to Erin!

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Hee!

That reminds me, there's a British store in Virginia that I've been meaning to go to again. I want to get some of that oniony sandwich spread, whatever it's called, and some tea.

Puzzling British usage from that food website:

Totally delicious and Moorish fun to eat snacks in cute cuddly playful bear shapes.

Moorish?

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

Moorish?

Moroccan via Spain, maybe?

Heh. I think they mean more-ish. You don't have this term?

Nope. Do tell.

I like to think of it being fun in a kill-your-wife-orchestrated-by-your-BF sort of way.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Belated Happy Birthday, erin!!!

Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone. I had a good one, with a House O' Bartenders party on Friday, a great work shift last night, and then I have a party at the Boardroom in North Beach tonight. (Anyone who wants to come is welcome - 7 p.m. until whenever!)

More-ish = something you have to keep eating. Like, in my case, Kraft macaroni and cheese. Or lemon sponge cake. Or, or, or (there's a reason I'm on a diet).

But you can use it about killing your spouse for fun, if you like. We'll just roll our eyes and go "Americans."

I may be wrong, but I think "more-ish" derives from Winnie the Pooh. Who frequently felt so.
