cilantro, forest rain, açai berry. (I don't usually do these, but this was a LIST!)

i did the other two, but

cilantro: describe the perfect dinner.

unfortunately I don't really have an answer for this - it's not exactly that I don't enjoy food, because I do eat a lot of recreational food, and I like cooking and looking at pictures of food, but when it comes to actually choosing to put things in my mouth – well, that's a lot less fun.

I don’t know Fiona Goode, but the rest of these answers had me figuratively jumping up and down in excited agreement! Calla lilies 5evar. Tywin is surprisingly endearing.

💖💖💖 Fiona is Jessica Lange's character in AHS: Coven, she's basically a coked-out, amoral witch queen. I think Tywin is a great leader and problem-solver, even if he’s shaky at best in the parenting department.

Oh, but that’s horrible. I’m very sorry to hear it. Will you begin anew, or search for a new old copy?

An old clean copy. The book was scored over pretty well, but most of the underlining and creasing was from the first read (when I was about 18). Since then I’ve never read it straight through (no need, it’s all so rich, strong from the very beginning you only need to dip here and there, mid-sprawl, for the whole of it and much of the rest to come back to mind). 

During a late night TV interview years ago there was a man who showed off one of his old tattoos (on his upper arm, I think): ‘1994′ it said. ‘Why 1994?’ ‘That was the year the stupidity ended.’ Which reminded me of this letter to Hawthorne, where Melville says nothing like the good in him could be traced back before the age of 25. 

Anyway, asked someone about it yesterday. He said there was a young guy, some seventeen/nineteen year old, pacing the park, that time, waiting for the Boston bus. No one saw him take it, but no one else was around.

I love your “#a consistent family tag” so much. Much meta-tag. Very yes.

i totally can't take credit for that, i stole it from elise! but i agree it's a good one. :))

Love these! Latte, mocha, and doppio, please.

List three aspects of your personality that you love.

I like to think I'm self-motivated. always open to listening to others  and I don't beat myself over what could or couldn't have been.

 Name one of your guilty pleasures.

Coffee! Nah, I'd say it would be My Mad Fat Diary-which is actually pretty great-or chocolate. I probably account for half of the chocolate consumption in America.

List two of your dream travel locations and why.

Jerusalem because it's such a majestic and ancient place and each one of my friends who has had the fortune to visit such a beautiful place has fallen in love with it. (Cairo too.) 

I'm stuck between Paris, London and Rome. Each has its own unique blend of culture, history and languages. There are so many cool places to visit: the cathedrals in Paris, John Keats' grave in England, and to start about Rome is to risk never ending. I also hope to visit Russia (see Tsarskoe Selo & the Winter Palace),India and Ireland. (I know that was way more than two locations-apologies.)

Thanks for the ask. :)

I am!

Well, at least there's an echo now.

This is magically exactly the thing I've been wanting to listen to all week. (I blame the BBC's Georgian Pleasures podcast.)

I'm glad!  (And do you mean "blame" or "thank"?! :D)

Wait. This is *solid.* I'm 110% into it.

thank you very much!
