Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

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

(I'm gonna leave and get me a bagel, dammit. Living on the edge)

There is/was this great place in Montreal called Fondumental. I had the wild meat fondue there once, and if you sit outside, you're seated in their herb garden, and you can just pick the herbs and add them to your fondue. It's amazing and blissful.

Anyone here ever used jinni.com?

Now tagless for your comfort.

My sister and sister-in-law dressed up my nephew Simon as Captain Hammer for Halloween. I've been waiting and waiting for a picture. Adorable!

Please tell me you've tweeted that to Nathan Fillion.

Lisa, if you want non-vegetarian restaurant recs, I can ask my veggie friend?

That would be great, thanks!

Is it bad that I'm thinking about having my groceries delivered so that I don't have to carry a case of water up the stairs? Is it worth the $10?

I've been having my groceries delivered for years, but $10 is a pretty steep fee IMO.

My infrequent Peapod orders pretty much always feature multiple cases of beer and soda, 40 bags of chow, etc. I'm sure they hate me.

Someone tell me this horribly, pissing rain will stop soon as I have agreed to take two four year olds out to the library this afternoon.

Art Crawl!!!

We're under a tornado watch from now to 6 pm. That's how ridiculously warm and blustery it is today.

Rainy day at the library sounds fun.

I delivered a still-quite-sore Emmett to school with a note excusing him from running in P.E. His hammies are still very tight, though I've been stretching him out.

I'm doing all my Thanksgiving shopping tomorrow. Must cobble together the menu.

Who's got a favorite non-traditional side dish recipe they want to share?

I want to shake up my Thanksgiving just a little bit.
