It is wonderful the way you are about your home state... most people have "the grass is greener" syndrome and wish they were anywhere but where they are.

I must admit to that syndrome too, but for entirely different reasons.

Nice 13 :)

Phoenix-

My biggest gripe is that the good concerts that I love more than anything are few and far between, and usually are meticulously scheduled for when I'm broke! I just found out that one of my faves will be here next week, though. YAY!

Paula-

I need to get up extra early someday soon, get over to my favorite panaderia (bakery) and get some empanadas! It's been to long.

You must have gotten around, Nat, to know what empanadas are! I never heard of them until I moved here..... now I'm addicted. The best ones are about half a block from where I USED to live. I miss that neighborhood for that very reason.

Joe, thanks so much for the "bitchin cookbook" link!

The only thing is, you've got a teensy error in the code. It's "htm" at the end, not "htp"?

:-)

Hugs to you. (Yes, I can hug a troll)
