Oh that's interesting!
Perkins, good idea for a gift!
I have only been to the one on Santa Monica Blvd.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My god, kat, how do you remember these things? I can vaguely remember going now, but certainly not what I had. Though special hot chocolate is certainly something I remember ordering somewhere. Because, special!

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
OMG, Parks and Rec is fucking killing it this season. It makes me laugh so hard and loud every week.
It is better than 30 Rock this year. YEAH I SAID IT.

ita, it was scharffen berger hot chocolate (which is the only one they have on the menu). I remembered the pasta papa because that's what I get Every. Single. Time. Even for dinner. And I'm not crazy about the eggs. So when you ordered it without I was like, "AH! I can do that!!" I mean, I don't do it. But I could.
I think I went with Perkins along with Burrell, Burrell's DH and the kids.
And I have a food brain memory. I can't fucking remember that I'm giving a test tomorrow in my AP Lit class, or what the plan is for my Honors Lit class, but I can remember what I ate yesterday for each meal.

I have no idea (probably went with you, because you were the restaurant person in LA), but I remember the pasta papa.

What's in a pasta papa? Did we go to one on Santa Monica? You eat in so many restaurants...I can't imagine remembering all those with so many different people.
Somehow I got out of the habit of watching sitcoms and I can't get back in, no matter how highly touted.

I remember that!
I am going to have to check out those groupons, but the system is down right now for maintenance.
In TGIF news, tomorrow is my last day of teaching for the semester! Of course, there will be grading for another week after that, but still... end is in sight!
My MiL has been having a rough time of it, so I expect I'll be spending some time with her these next couple of weeks.

My mother is nagging me to email her about what to send with my sister to drop off for me on her way to New Zealand. I want everything! Patty! Coco bread! Fried fish! Hard do bread! Breadfruit! Tamarind balls! RUM.
How to phrase?

You could try "I want everything! Patty! Coco bread! Fried fish! Hard do bread! Breadfruit! Tamarind balls! RUM."
Or alternately: "Send food. All of it."

I tried the former, stacking RUM to the top of the list. Travelling her own or sending my father my mother stacks excessively. My sister, on the first leg of a NZ trip, less so. But she's had a lot stuff shipped to pick, so maybe it will work out. Num.
Oh, and Xmas cake/pud.
