Blink discussion revisited

Laughing - a lot.

Yummy food - a lot of that, too.

Surprising stories:

Queenie told how she refused to give a gunman the money from the cash register when she was a freshman and lived to tell the tale. What a "frisky frosh"!

Beau Cheveaux told how she sent home flyers to all the students at the elementary school with a misprint of the word "public." (Use your imagination if you were not there.)

Moab did a great job leading the discussion and, Ambi, it's too bad you weren't able to come. She passed around the frontal view of the kouros.

We had so much to say that we stayed, and stayed and stayed.

And laughed and laughed and laughed.

And ate a lot too.

Many mentioned how they wanted recipes. Here's mine:

1. Drive to Allen's.

2. Buy a bag of chip and the fresh salsa in the refrigerated box by the deli.

3. Open the chip bag and the salsa container.

4. Serve.
