And it's not a Big Mac level of calories.
Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I am getting my hair cut tomorrow. Is "as short as possible while still looking professional" descriptive enough?

“Not dead yet!”
Gods yes. The stems are an awful lot like tree branches. The florettes are the good for eating part.
I'm a whackjob. I like the stems. The florettes have a weird mouthfeel to me.

I like them both! The florettes are excellent dip vectors and the stems are good handles. And I make a dish with broccoli and cheddar where the stems come out tender as baked apples and tasting like cheese.

Makes a note to cook Barb a nice tree twig and bark gratin, should we chance to meet.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I like the stems, too, the florets are not as tasty. But I definitely prefer them cooked.

Anything's better with cheese!

I like them both. I will often pare down the stem with a vegetable peeler because that outer layer is so tough.
Fun quick dinner tonight. Seared a cod fillet (my favorite fish), then sauteed some tomato, kalamata olives and capers with some shallots and garlic. Put the fillet back in the pan, then in the oven for 5 minutes on 400 degrees. Served it over couscous. Yummy, quick and filling.

Everything except Chinese food. PF Chang's is doing some quesadilla thing these days and it is so wrong.

Urk. Yeah, that does NOT sound right.
