You brought me back a lemon and you squeezed me tight

"Would a Calvinist have just scoffed an entire bag of fish jerky?" I reasonably texted [personal profile] selkie, who had just significantly improved the evening of a week that has taken a deeply unwanted turn for the medical by causing a bagful of groceries and seltzer to appear on the front steps. Hestia professed interest in the little squares of maple-and-coconut salmon, but had to content herself with treats designed for delectation of cat and curling up on the couch next to me. I am fascinated by the pumpkin spice cookies that come ready to bake from refrigerated. The bananas are already having a short shelf life.

ETA: Later texted to [personal profile] spatch: "Who the hell is going to steal and sell Pedialyte? If you could get high off it, I'd have spent 2023 as a kite."

The cookies are the same ilk as the 150 I baked today, but I thought you’d enjoy your tapioca-and-wishes cookie with spice. If you like them soft, bake them as they are; if you prefer crisp-kinda, bonk them with the heel of your hand before baking .

*hugs*

Well, at the point where we live in the bonkers universe where BOTTLES OF TIDE DETERGENT were being used as a black market currency...

I am excited that we are entering the pumpkin spice time of year (though I haven't started consuming these items yet).

I'm sorry about the medical. Hope you're okay.

I'm also happy for you that you get pumpkin spice cookies. I am craving a pumpkin spice latte something fierce.

Kitten's life, so hard. *g*

Hooray for a lovely care package! <3

Very sorry about the medical nonsense, but very glad you have abundant treats and a fine cat.

My first unfiltered response was basically FISH JERKY WE WANTS IT PRECIOUS, but it did contain the other sentiments.

My father-in-law is a Calvinist, so: yes.

James Hogg told me Calvinists can scoff as many bags of fish jerky as they like, as long as they're numbered among the elect!

(Seriously: that does sound like a fascinating range of foods and a good thing. Maple and coconut salmon squares!)
