My life is running away from me it seems! <BR/><BR/>I actually kind of wondered if you were near the Rose Parade route as I lolled on the couch watching it on TV. I love (LOVE!) the rose parade, not so much for the floats but for the honor they give the equestrian teams. Some year I'll make it out there to see it!<BR/>It used to be my dream to be in it as a member of the USET, but now I'd just be happy to see it in person.<BR/><BR/>I'm totally tucking this recipe away, btw. It sounds <I>wonderful</I>.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30498647.post-46667810216533033702008-01-10T20:49:00.000-08:002008-01-10T20:49:00.000-08:00christina,i live right next to the thursday night ...christina,<BR/>i live right next to the thursday night farmers market in so pas. i plan on visiting nichole's cheeses this weekend. tapas at dragonfly's or coffee anywhere sounds great. as much as i hate to use the phone, i will call you sometimes soon. and yes, the letters never end. i still have 13 to do. after all is said and done, i would have written letters for over 65 students this year, not fun. especially since i had to do some of them over winter break. <BR/>talk to you soon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30498647.post-87670454175105080912008-01-10T20:20:00.000-08:002008-01-10T20:20:00.000-08:00Typical College Graduate: Sorry lady, I'm a chees...Typical College Graduate: Sorry lady, I'm a cheeseball. You know me. School is good, thank you for asking. I'm fighting a sore throat, but I'm always fighting a sore throat, so that's nothing new. How's school for you?<BR/><BR/>Winlor: Hey buddy. Good to hear from you. Those letters never end, do they? Let's get together for coffee, or tapas at Dragonfly some night SOON. Do you hit the South Pas farmers' market? It's such a sweet market. And, don't you just drool at Nicole's cheeses every time you drop in there? <BR/><BR/>Oh For the Love of Food: Yes, I do know they're edible. They're delicious! I've been stir frying them with green garlic, fava bean greens, and minced preserved lemon lately and loving them.

It made me sigh. :)<BR/>There's a Scottish New Year's tradition which involves visiting the homes of friends and families after the bells (midnight on the 31st Dec) and bringing a lump of coal. It's called "first-footing". Does this happen in the states? Moreoften than not, folk don't bring coal anymore: just some beer or wine!<BR/>Gorgeous dogs and cats, btw!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07157804056370219398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30498647.post-77549290738369344862008-01-03T23:32:00.000-08:002008-01-03T23:32:00.000-08:00You had me at the part where your fiance was singi...You had me at the part where your fiance was singing to your cats. It was like a delightful little skip in my heart to read that. But boy would I love to see how you would transform my empty plot in the back!<BR/><BR/>I've got a lot of cardamom powder so this bread is most definitely a go!Rowenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15335673619430109527noreply@blogger.com
