Happy birthday, ND! Wishing you all sorts of goodness today...oh, wait, you've got Kristin. That's plenty of goodness right there. Instead, just wishing you some good quiet time together, because I know with your schedules that's rare and precious to both of you.
vw, that is one amazing name. Will you actually get to see this person when the meeting happens, or will he forever be just an amazing name?
Lots of recovery~ma, and grilled cheese in abundance, to Matt.
homemade cream of tomato soup
Oooh! Do you have a good recipe? I just recently actually read the label on the Campbell's and am mildly squicked by the HFCS.

If you don't feel like making it at home, I can vouch for the tastiness of the TJ's Tomato and Roasted Red Pepper soup. Om nom nom nom.Also! They have these freeze-dried banana chips that are heaven on earth, if you like dried bananas. Which I do.
The V8 soups are also surprisingly tasty. I can vouch for the Southwestern Corn and the Tomato.
JZ, this is my go-to recipe for tomato soup.
[eta: I use a food mill to puree & separate the seeds in one step instead of using a blender and then a sieve.]
[eta2: And I leave out the sugar and usually add less than the full 1/2 cup of cream. It's a really flexible recipe.]
Oh, yeah, I definitely love the TJ's (haven't tried the V8 yet). But it'd be fun to have an actual homemade recipe to play with too.
Happy Birthday, Drew!
Daniel - what they said.
So, has everyone already seen the awesome craftified My Little Pony toys? I
think
my favourite is the
Kill Bill
one. But maybe Cap'n Jack pips her at the post...
A friend who works at Comedy Central was just saying something about having to bleep out "queef" and "fishsticks" on something that was going up on their website. But I'd never heard about a dirty connation of "fishsticks" before. All I can find (on Urban Dictionary) is a stupid joke (that was then repeated on South Park) where "fishstick" = fish penis.
