And a critter?

Re: Canon Recs! anonymous March 8 2014, 01:41:13 UTC

DAMMIT, I thought I'd gone with something less likely to duplicate!

Nonnie, you need to be more creative. Next time, try a 'Vogon poetry rec' thread!

Let meme tackle those burning questions and work out a few kinks.

Re: Fic research/plot unfucking anonymous March 8 2014, 01:48:12 UTC

I'm still not writing this fic, but, if Boyd Crowder was going to be a girl, what would her name be? I've been thinking Bel. I have no idea if is Isabelle is a name that would happen in that time and place, but I figure it's popular and classic enough that her mother could have gotten the name out of a book or from a movie. Googling suggests that Barbara was popular in 1970s Kentucky, so Babs is an an option but I think I like Bel a little better even if it's less likely.

Re: Fic research/plot unfucking anonymous March 8 2014, 02:03:00 UTC

Roberta would be my guess. After General Lee, of course.

Lots and lots of people are named after him in the South. Lots. Shockingly many. Often in the form of Lee as a middle name, so she might have been Roberta Lee Crowder.

That is kind of amazing. Do girls get Bobby for shot?

Potatoes and onions and kale, oh my!

Re: Food/recipes thread anonymous March 8 2014, 01:56:25 UTC

I have onions, garlic, basil, bacon, kale, potatoes, and sweet potatoes. Also staples like flour, butter, eggs, etc. And I have a corner store nearby. What can I make that would be quick and easy?

It doesn't have to include all of the above, but I am definitely craving bacon. And kale, but I could also do a side salad with that.

Re: Food/recipes thread anonymous March 8 2014, 02:00:05 UTC

Do you have canned broth or bouillon cubes? You could make soup. Fry up the bacon, set it aside, saute the onions and garlic, pour in the broth, add the chopped potatoes and kale and simmer until tender. Crumble up the bacon and sprinkle it on top of the soup, or just eat it.

Re: Food/recipes thread anonymous March 8 2014, 04:29:56 UTC

I made hash, but I will do this next time. It sounds delicious.

Re: Small Fandoms - Midnight Mayor series anonymous March 8 2014, 02:15:04 UTC

Have any nonnies read Kate Griffin's Midnight Mayer books? I'm currently on the third one, but I've ground to a halt. I don't know if it's a by-product of reading them back to back, but I seem to have reached my limit for reading about Matthew lurching from crisis to crisis.

Other observations: Griffin's writing feels very Pratchetty, and Matthew her Vimes.

Re: Small Fandoms - Midnight Mayor series anonymous March 8 2014, 02:19:06 UTC

SA *Mayor. Midnight Mayer would be Twilight related, presumably.

Unpopular Opinions anonymous March 8 2014, 01:41:11 UTC

is happy to bottom, but wants its own thread.

Re: Unpopular Opinions anonymous March 8 2014, 01:55:32 UTC

So I guess not liking Archer this season is pretty unpopular. It just got a two season pickup, so I know the network's DAMN happy.

Meanwhile I want to go back to s1-s3 and then just have it last forever, exactly like that. Why is that so unreasonable/impossible?

*kicks can*

Re: Unpopular Opinions anonymous March 8 2014, 04:52:00 UTC

I love that they are doing something different and are sticking to the new format. However, I really can't click with this season. I can't believe I'm going to say it, but there's too much Pam. I love her character, but cocaine Pam is grating.

Re: Unpopular Opinions anonymous March 8 2014, 12:01:23 UTC

Yep, Pam's been my fave from day one, and cocaine Pam is my biggest issue with this season. I could probably live with any change, as long as I still loved watching Pam.
