Yuletide recs are forthcoming. First, have an end of year fandom meme!

( in which only my music list has any semblance of indie cred, and also superheroes are awesome )

So, remember that top five meme? I do!

mazily asked for top five CJ/Toby moments (canon, fanon, whatever): ( and I didn't even get to the dancing )

1. This week: I remembered how much I love simple harmonies and steel guitars and acoustic guitars used as percussion instruments, and minor league ballplayers and lemon-poppy muffins. I also remembered how much I hate the Red Sox losing to the Yankees. I made a wimpy but nonetheless tasty veggie curry and a standard five minute pasta sauce and a ( Read more... )
