Oh, JenEllen, make the margaritas already! No blender needed! I always keep a bottle made up in the fridge. (Ya know, to ward off scurvy and the like -- it's fruit juice, right?!?) Although I'm still trying to figure out how to make, uh, hot buttered margaritas for snowstorms and the like. It started snowing here yesterday, then turned to freezing rain. Then it warmed up and turned to just plain rain. Then the sun came out. Then it snowed. Then it rained again and the sun came out -- sort of. Then it got windy. Then it got dark. Boy, do we need a holiday!!!

I've got a job interview tomorrow -- and THEN I'm going for a walk on the beach!

So, when are we going to put the perfect dinner party together? And where? Did I tell you Tom just got a new concertina?

And I WILL find the "Warts and All" tape to copy for you. Have a great holiday!
