Thief that I am, I have stolen the_wanlorn's copy of The Omnivore's Dilemma. If she manages to recover it, she is likely to find a deposit of astonishment bookmarking page 97, for it is there there I read the following:

Natural ingredients, the company pointed out rather scarily, are a "wild mixture of substances created by plants and animals for completely non-food purposes--their survival and reproduction." These dubious substances "came to be consumed by humans at their own risk."

I've never read Good Omens but ahahahah this alone is pretty hilarious. wtaf.

And it reminds me!! Sometime, do you want to go on an adventure to Arlington, to this restaurant called "Kathmandu Spice"? Me and my friends ate there once and I've been wanting to go back and thought of you...ALSO I STILL WANT TO GO BACK TO YOMA SOMETIME MMM, WHAT SAY YOU?

No idea where either of these places are in relation to your new apartment, so lemme know :)

Dude, at any given time I am just LOOKING for an excuse to go out to eat! :D

The new apartment is probably about 20-25 minutes away from both of them. :)
