neil gaiman?

i THINK i had a dream last night involving neil gaiman and a large grassy field.

i can't be sure, though.

and somewhat related: i may or may not be writing a romance novel that most certainly does NOT involve neil gaiman. in no way shape or form. his name is edward. completely different people.

4 for $40

so, i'm going to try an ongoing experiment. I'm going to put on dinner parties for four people, and spend only $40 on all ingredients and accouterments, including wine and flowers/table decor. i'm not a table-scaper, but i enjoy having a pretty thing in the middle, be it flowers or candles or a bowl of produce.

first on the list is roast chicken, sausage risotto, and spinach salad with walnuts, feta cheese and raspberry vinnaigrette, and some panna cotta with berry compote for dessert.

anyone of my pals interested? i'll be doing this more than once, so if i get a lot of interest, i'll try to mix up the company a bit. it should be really fun!

canada?

is no one else worried about what's happening in canada? does no one else see some startling similarities to our own dark past?

canada can't be allowed to go down the same shit-slide that we did. america got really awful really fast when someone who wasn't elected by the majority clawed his way into the highest office and started playing around with congress. do they not see the same thing happening to themselves? what the hell?
