Mild success with a dash of cilantro.

Accompanying Shane and Charles for an afternoon of picking out a painfully eclectic mishmash of home furnishings is further testament to my bountiful supply of patience. My tongue may be permanently scarred from nearly biting it in half during the course of the outing, but I feel it was worth it to reassure myself that I have better taste than

So you'll be cooking all our meals from now on, yeah?

[dracolicious]

If you enjoy being a one dish sort of man, maybe.

[boywholives]

I could be. For you.

[dracolicious]

You'd contract scurvy from lack of vitamins and minerals found in other foods, not to mention death by boredom from lack of variety.

[boywholives]

Thanks for helping. You were fantastic.

[dracolicious]

Helping?

[boywholives]

Yeah. Helping out with, you know, the daily chores and things. Like cooking.

Contrary to popular belief, I do not help. I may choose to experiment in my own home, but no man with capable servants can be expected to help.

Did Shane and Charlie finish up their furniture shopping, then?

[dracolicious]

Not really, no. But they've got a bed, and so does the baby. It's a start.

[boywholives]

...that's it?

More essentials for Amelia than anything. Shane refused to keep the furniture they've been using for her here when I offered. I think the two of them may actually be considering second-hand sofas.

[boywholives]

Hey. Look at those three in there...Em and Amelia, playing with little Bean...

[dracolicious]

I sense biscuit trickery afoot.

[boywholives]

She'd better not. I had a talk with her about teasing him.

[dracolicious]

It's not difficult to mock someone who's only got four teeth. I like the part where he gets on all fours and chases her like a fat red crab. That ought to teach Daddy's Little Witch a thing or two.
