Whenever David visits, for whatever reason, everyone makes a Love and Hate list. I don’t think there are any rules generally, but I like to keep my list to animal loves and hates, just so I don’t start getting overwraught and writing fiddly paragraphs. Therefore my list tends to be mostly food, as you can see. The “finest pastries and pudding” is really more of a category which opens up into its own long tree of specific items.
Speaking of which, I probably should have added bread and butter to the love side. Nubby bread and chilly butter. I’m sure there are numerous things I’m missing, but that hardly matters as anyone who visits here regularly will be able to fill in the blanks.
You all should tell me your love/hate lists. Come on, let’s have them!

Poor Bumblebee :[
Addendum: if the car can turn into a big metal dude capable of playing frisbee, (still unsure what Transformers actually, you know, do) than it’s exempt from my Hate list. Otherwise it’s just yellow-ly demanding attention and simultaneously not taking kids to school or saving me from some rain-blasted street corner downtown at 4am.
And on second thought, Bumblebee had better ferry kids to school AND take fares, on top of the frisbee action. Or be painted red and re-named Ladybug. DEAL WITH IT BEE.
