I don't think I've ever stopped in Rawlins, although I think I did pass through Wyoming on a road trip many moons ago.

Oh, I love a good espresso, or even a mediocre latte. And espresso martinis are fantastic. I also love a nice, brewed, medium-roast coffee.

Re: The person below me
Oh dear god, no. I love children's fantasy, but that one is so damn English, with everything that implies about the class system... I didn't read it as a child, but I read some of it as an adult, I couldn't even figure it out what it was about except the class system.
the person below me can list 5 children's fantasy books read and enjoyed as an adult...

I do, but I also feel bewildered. It seemed like there was a pattern there, but it was eluding me. Hmmm... Google tells me it's a finger-battle iPhone app. I have no idea what that means, but I guess there's some interactivity I was missing. I liked the pretty moving lights...

Re: The person below me
Nope. I'm not very dexterous. My extent of "decorating" anything like that would be to apply a huge dollop of whipped cream. More likely, I'd just serve cupcakes with whipped cream and berries on the side, and let guests dollop to their hearts' content.

Re: The person below me
I work at home & don't get up until 11 or so, so I have a decent sized breakfast & my "lunch" is usually around 5. Dinner's at 10ish.
TPBM hates me for being able to sleep until 11am every day.

Re: The person below me
It's true. I used to get up at 10:00am, work 11:00am-7:00pm and go to bed @ 2:00am . . . those were happy days. I'm not lazy, but my body clock has always been off-set.

I would tell you guys that I want sunflowers - bright, cheery yellow with the darkest brown disc florets. I will make this easy though. I don't even want a bouquet, just a single flower with a long stem.
