I hope the cat gets superpowers out of it.
Wesley: All right. I'm going to let you all in on something you may have trouble comprehending. I assure you however-- Gunn: Vampires are real. Wesley: I was telling!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
But perhaps this is just a testament to the fact that I eat out too much.
Well, no more Alessio! Next time you are around here you should try Lum-Ka-Naad or Village Tandoor.
Did I read someone say they can't make pasta on a weeknight? I feel guilty for how much I make, because that is practically the easiest thing to cook ever.
Tonight I feel I should get rid of all my fresh veggies before leaving town, so I think it's a grilled corn/steamed spinach/plum tomato salsa night.

Yeah, but she means make it. Like, from flour and stuff.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Well, it was Vortex who said she doesn't do it. I'm surprised she cooks anything on a weeknight, with the amount of detail she goes into. I just toss some stuff into a pot and leave it alone for a while. That's not how she rolls.
Tech guy! Come back from your other conversation and come back to your desk! I have questions for you...

(FTR, I do not block Vortex, I just saw someone quote it while skimming and was too lazy to go back and find out who said it.) After reading that ragu recipe the other day I bow to her culinary prowess. But I understand not wanting to make fresh pasta on a weeknight. I doubt I will ever want to do that.
ETA2: I'm so lazy, I just remembered I don't even have school nights. I could make pasta all day if I wanted to.

Homemade pasta is like home made ice cream. It's just that much better.
I don't mind the mechanics of making it. It's the drying of it that annoys me. I don't have a rack anymore.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I got my voter registration in the mail! And a good thing, because I just spent two hours making calls for my candidate... Along with the registration was a think saying they are looking for poll workers. I am seriously considering signing up.

Oh! Burrell, I don't think you need an account with Paypal -- I think you can just do it with a credit card.

I will totally do that on a weeknight, because I can improvise the sauce. You, NSM with the quick impro I'm thinking.
Sauces I do often, it's the actual making of the pasta that I can't motivate for on a weeknight.
Yeah, but she means make it. Like, from flour and stuff.
yep. 50g flour, 50g semolina, one egg, dash of olive oil. Knead for 10 minutes, let rest for 30 minutes, then roll out. Tastes wonderful, but there's a lot of good dry pasta out there that's almost as good.
