Stephanie Zvan is one of the hosts for the Minnesota Atheists' radio show and podcast, Atheists Talk. She serves on the board of Secular Woman. She speaks on science and skepticism in a number of venues, including science fiction and fantasy conventions.
Stephanie has been called a science blogger and a sex blogger, but if it means she has to choose just one thing to be or blog about, she's decided she's never going to grow up. In addition to science and sex and the science of sex, you'll find quite a bit of politics here, some economics, a regular short fiction feature, and the occasional bit of concentrated weird.
Oh, and arguments. She sometimes indulges in those as well. But I'm sure everything will be just fine. Nothing to worry about. Nothing at all.
Stephanie, would it do any good to send you some of The Mother of All Decongestants? (Homegrown, home-smoke-dried chili powder.) Although five-star Thai soups work nicely too.
No worries, D. C. It made me laugh, which I haven’t done much of this week. 🙂 Also, I’m a hot pepper wimp, though I can eat nearly unlimited ginger.
The stuff I make is so smoky that you have to lay it on pretty heavily before the heat is an issue.
Also: this spring I’m experimenting with a new variety of peppers, called (I kid you not) “Holy Mole,” which is a mild variety of chilaca (aka “chile negro”) and smoky-tasting even before I do the mesquite magic. We’ll see, but it has the potential to make some very non-picante chipotles.
Let’s not forget Cows With Guns.
and Cows & Cows & Cows

Anyway, just ask.
Joven: CYRIAK!!!
Though I prefer “Meow Mix.”
D. C., I appreciate the offer, but between my throat and the canker sores, I’m already in quite enough pain. 🙂
@Joven
that was definitely worth 2 minutes of my life.
I think I’ll crawl off and hide under one of the pepper bushes now, Stephanie.
But the offer stands for better days.
