I will let you all have your room when you come visit me.
This sounds open-ended. I'll just have my daughter stay with you and you can provide college for her. Her dream colleges are the University of Chicago and Harvard but I'm sure she'd be perfectly content at Coe.

Is the Coe motto still, "If you can't go, go to Coe"?

That's pretty good willpower when you live in the same community in which Valley Pastries is located.

Probably helps that i never heard of this bakery thingy, had to google it.

Easier to resist donuts and pastries now that I am home in the mornings and not at work having to grab a late breakfast of whatever is sold in the quick shop downstairs.

Maybe checking in to see if I am still alive and willing to work as a crewmember on the yacht that her and her hubby own and charter out on occasion. :oops:

It's a small place in a really old strip mall on the west side of Golden Valley and it really is that good. I guess it's not particularly close to where you are so that's good news for your health.

I have heard that a time or two. My wife's uncle is a biology professor there and every two years he leads a May Term class that spends two weeks in Belize "studying" (snorkeling, jungle stuff etc.) that I suggest.

Doing some spring cleaning/dusting. Opened front door to shake out hand duster and was startled by several large wood rats no more than 12 feet from me. Behind them were another half dozen of the giant white tailed woodrats. Banged the plastic shovel on the porch to chase them off and than gave the yews another dose of Liquid Fence.

I really ******* hate urban deer.

Spawn of the devil creatures along with bunny rats and tree rats.

Welcome in my yard are cardinals, black capped chickadees, juncos, finches (even the house finches) and the specter of Spooner the wayfaring beagle.

We also accept cardinals, nuthatches, and orioles (in early May, anyway. After that they head north).
 
Hawkeye basketball legend Bobby Hansen was in our lumber yard today. (Luckily, I was at lunch.) We got some sort of award from the Better Business Bureau, and he is apparently one of their spokespeople.

Too bad I didn't get to talk to him - I wanted to ask him if Zabel was really as legendary a drunk as I have always heard.
 
If we had managed to make a baby of our own, we would have been rich (from suing doctors). I have no oven and he shoots blanks. Makes it a little difficult...

Had a dream once that my parents had another baby, and the above conditions were also in play. (Not to mention they would have been 50+ at the time) I remember asking in the dream "But...how..." And my mom says "Oh, the doctor's can reverse things," and my reaction was "Okay!" (I know you can reverse on a male...little bit harder on a female)
