SO ABOUT A MONTH ago, when I had first gotten home for semester break, I tweeted about a very sisterly moment between my mother and me, in which we gorged ourselves on pistachios and talked about Alec Baldwin’s undying handsomeness. Lo and behold, the Wonderful Pistachio company (twitter.com/@getcrackin) contacted me several days later and said that they chose my tweet as one of their recent favorites about pistachios. And furthermore, that they would like to send me some free nuts! I was a bit skeptical at first.
But sure enough, just around the new year I got an envelope stuffed with coupons for free pistachios. I think the moral of the story here is that it pays to be sisterly. In the meantime, I’ll be nursing my raw fingers back to health before I start chowing down on my next batch of nuts.

Anastasia – I am writing a book about sisterless women. Would you be interested in letting me interview you? It is a casual interview, as short or long as you are comfortable, and the book is a series of case studies, not statistics. The premise is that sisterless women make their way through life in a much different way than do women who have sisters. I have found some amazing insights into femaleness through my interviews with these women. Hope to hear from you.
as one NUT to another i can tell you a few things about PISTACHIOS .. i have dropped endless amounts of coins in those machines that seem to offer you only 3 or 4 nuts for every paid for crank … i tried every trick know to man from shaking the shit out of the machine to turning it upside down .. a trick i learned from my brother NEIL … but never was i awarded with enough NUTS… never anything close to how hard i had worked for those precious coins
