After all, I had 5 brothers and no sisters and I was one of the cabooses.... that might explain a lot.<br /><br />I, however, never leave my hairdryer in the hall.amylouwhosewshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06739231618762913689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897710562041393560.post-38291410280827678532009-09-26T06:02:33.447-06:002009-09-26T06:02:33.447-06:00There's also Fruit Fresh.

Billions of hand picked yet still expensive berries floating in their grave. I haven't stopped grieving that one.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17085720040214545180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897710562041393560.post-39508563587840301492009-09-25T23:55:40.892-06:002009-09-25T23:55:40.892-06:00Nicole, can you email me?

You can put peeled pears in a bowl with cold water and a little bit of salt to keep them from turning brown.<br />(Swedish musicians?? What am I missing?

I almost cried at the Sprint store today when they said I had to pay $18.95 to get my 'free' phone activated.
