Why Scott Pilgrim is important (voting with your dollars).

[seanan_mcguire]

A movie called Scott Pilgrim vs. the World was released recently. It's a classic "boy meets girl, boy fights girl's seven evil exes to keep girl, boy learns important life lessons through kicking ass" story, told with all the manic intensity of a Nintendo game on Red Bull and speed. Is it perfect? No. There are probably things that could have

And I did email this, but I think I'm going to park this right here.

Great video--may I post it to my f-locked f-list?

What does Puff get for dessert?
Have you considered a handmixer for whipping cream? Ours has lasted forever.

I have no cat at the moment :( but our almost-catlike dogs are likewise spoiled. They want chocolate, which will kill them, and grains, which contributes to their skin allergies, but they lick plates all the time, unless there's choco or something else inimical to dogs.

Go ahead and share.

Puff belongs to Kathleen, who is particularly picky on what her cats can and cannot have. There are some shrimp treats that they can have but we never have any to share. Usually, he just vicariously comes in and watches the other cats eat treats.

I never gave that much thought. It is my first time whipping cream. I'll have to try that out at some other point in time.

If you've never seen folding before, it breaks up the nice bits of just-whipped cream in stiff or soft peaks to the point where you wonder why you bothered with whipping in the first place. Go ahead and break up the big pieces of schlag!

I always gave Mithril the water used to defrost the shrimp. While I was preggers, she was in kitty heaven, because she got it most days: I was diabetic then, and was not allowed carbos before noon (it has to do with the vagaries of gestational diabetes), but had to have 4 exchanges of protein. I ended up eating tons of shrimp with cocktail sauce for breakfast, as it was just as easy as cereal or toast (incl. cleanup--where 4 eggs or 4 oz meat would take more), and it satisfied me. I only went off shrimp for about 6 mos. after. The teen lad likes shrimp, now, which might be because he had so much in utero!

So the sound of the tuna cans popping open? INSTANT ALICE JUST ADD YOUTUBE.

This remains brilliant.
