    Tapicoa pudding, ehh? Hate the stuff, myself. Gritty desserts that should be super-smooth are fit neither for man nor shark. I have Spokane.

    And here I thought “tappeoka” was a wiki site about brewing beer.

    Yes, I did check the Blog and I stand by (or fall) by my comment.

    @dogsniff, Teresa may have spelled tapioca wrong, but tappeoka is spelled correctly. Not to be confused with Amadeus Tappioka. (God, I love search engines, Geek Pride Week 2011)

    @Johnny D: I have heard from thoroughly unreliable sources that your time will come. There is a special place for you.

    And you know, Teresa, that you’ll never lose us dedicated readers…FA is my morning koan, to get me into a contemplative state before I begin my crazy day…

    Ow! Baslim, that was horrid. You must wear the cone of shame for an hour.

    For what it’s worth, I love tapioca pudding. I wonder what a Yorkshire Pudding stuffed with it would be like… some sort of hellish cream puff, perhaps?

    Maybe it was my big sister (much like Teresa) telling me it was “frog egg” pudding, but I never developed a taste.

    I can’t remember all of the details, but I think it was related to nose thumbing (Teresa was an advocate), gentle, constructive, positive criticism of FA (she was opposed to it), the temperature of somebody’s heart (the colder the better, apparently), the meaning of the phrase “Flogging your Rotifer” (she expressed no opinion), and the true meaning of happiness (I know it may have something to do with movie star sunglasses but is definitely unrelated to sunshine or beer).

    My grandmother always referred to tapioca pudding as, “calf slobber.” I always say, “Thanks, but I’m full!”
