The first Thanksgiving, though, had venison (which, by the way, is the culinary that refers mostly to deer meat these days), so that technically makes it truly traditional.
There has been a rise in venison on the Thanksgiving table over the past few years, though, for which I'd totally blame its leaner, healthier-than-beef qualities and modern hysterical health food culture. It's supposed to be really good—a richer, more flavorful variant of its bovine brother, with a gamy note, but not so much the last part if you obtain farm-raised venison. ____________________ About the author: A prolific contributor to Jul with some 2195 posts published, Sofi better fancies herself as a cinema geek, a composer, an occasional gamer, a budding fashionita, an absolute cooking newbie and a general life enthusiast-satirist.

I first read this as "At least we know we're not destroying wild pokemon, then "
This is how I know I'm overtired.

I'm having a philosophical argument over whether I would win a philosophical argument.
Yo Dawg.
On the upside, I'm winning... I think...

Okay, she was sleeping, that makes sense.
Also, loving the Sonic Generations OST.

Today was a rather dull day. Did nothing but sit around and mess with Vray. Also Doctor Who stuff.
Can we do something about the filter? It was amusing and all, but it's getting in the way of posting images. I had to rename two already.
