the boys I mean are not refined

( A few thoughts on NCIS. Spoilery. Not very squeeful. :/ )

OH HEY IT'S SNOWING. Actual snow that's sticking to the ground!! Makes me realize how much I've missed Idaho's blizzards, but whatever, we got a snow day, which was nice. And hopefully we'll have another tomorrow, because I have been horribly irresponsible and haven't done any of my preemptively-assigned snow day homework. :)

I made a stuffed olive-and-garlic rib roast tonight, which was pretty good, but nothing really special. For dessert, though, I made traditional shortcake - the wonderfully lumpy, cakey kind, not that grocery-store fluff - and infused it with orange zest. I topped the cakes with clementine slices & strawberries, then drizzled them with a sweetened-condensed-milk/Grand Marnier/grenadine mixture. OM NOM NOM. This mixture is the best ever. I'll dress up an extra shortcake tomorrow for food porn photos.

EDIT: ( Strawberry-Orange Shortcake )

5 Reasons Why It's Cool to Like NCIS. Because it IS, you guys! I only watch two shows, Supernatural & NCIS (how can some of you fit in twenty??). It's blatantly obvious how much love I have for Supernatural, and it's my fandom. But NCIS is the show I've watched faithfully since the pilot six years ago. I'm not involved in the fandom at all (um, I may have giggled when Kate got her head blown off - I really hated her, okay?), but you all need to try it out. I promise you, it's snarky & sexy & funny & nothing like every other crime show out there.

Youtube evidence of NCIS' awesomeness! Bonus lederhosen at 2:15! And Gibbs petting Tony at 4:30! ♥

Also, I decided like .21 seconds ago that I ship Ziva/Ari. Because as if her father isn't creepy enough, she totally needs to get it on with her half-brother. (SPN is being a bad influence, apparently.)

I'm really pimping today - sorry! But it's for a good cause, right?

ETA: Oh god. This is never going to get old, is it? ...NO. DUN. DUN DUN DUN. DUN DUN DUN. DUN DUN DUNNN! *LOVES MADLY*
