e-potluck

[sabotabby]

jvmatucha had the awesome idea of hosting an LJ potluck the other day, so I am swiping his idea and inviting everyone with the idea that maybe it'll turn into a big food meme. Everyone loves a potluck!

Damnit, I'm starving!

[sabotabby]

So am I. Fortunately, someone is feeding me tonight.

FOOD PORN!

[sabotabby]

I am shameless. I need to balance out all the snark and gloom of my last few entries.

We used to sit in the house in Tuwani and do food porn. When you're faced with the forty-third meal in a row that will involve nothing more than rice, lentils and potatoes, all you want is to order a pizza. We'd sit in the front yard and go "hot dogs... mmmmm.... oh yeah... I could go for a pizza.... yeah, how about a nice smoothie.... oh god, yes!"

[sabotabby]

No doubt. I always think that I could live off rice, lentils, and potatoes forever, mind you. I wonder if I'd get sick of that...

[violachic.livejournal.com]

Oh trust me. It happens.

There's a story that goes around about our team in Chiapas about seven years ago. In the village where they were living, they ate beans and tortillas for every meal. EVERY meal, and no spices or salt or anything. The day someone showed up with a lime was like Christmas, and I know a few people who count that as the best meal of their lives.

No hot sauce?!

I need to start a fund to supply Chiapas with hot sauce!

No hot sauce!


Our team there has since closed- one of the few projects that closed cause the community didn't feel they needed us anymore :-D

You have vastly improved upon the survey by including the ticky-box option! :D

[sabotabby]

Everything is better with ticky-boxes.

[jaymoh.livejournal.com]

What is a ticky box exactly?

[sabotabby]

That little box that you tick when you fill out a poll.

[jaymoh.livejournal.com]

Oh! Of Course! I'll check it at once! I felt very cautious about checking it because I didn't understand it. I guess I'm not very adventurous...

I would like to register a complaint.

To me, a 'ticky box' is a box (rectangular, nay, square), the kind you fill with an X- or V-shaped checkmark.

What you have so brazenly called a 'ticky box' is a 'radio button', and I refuse to push it!

Viva la Revolution!

[sabotabby]

The term "radio button" does not adequately convey the thing's ticky properties.

I love your kitty icon

[sabotabby]

Thanks!
