Mmm.... sweet and sour eggplant balls.

A gentleman I've seen at San Diego Goth clubs wears black vinyl kitty ears and has leopard spots tattooed all down his back.

My Sekrit Plan is progressing!

*heh*. yes, there is such a thing; i just came across a few via my new volunteer job.

cute new icon!

with every sweet dish a touch of tangy or salty or sour.

with every tangy or salty or sour dish, a touch of sweet.

works every time to "brighten the flavor."

special hint: a good friend swore by cayenne pepper (just a sprinkle, mind you) in his boots in the winter - kept his feet really warm....

i love natural cures - always!

Is there such a thing as a goth furry?
