mmm I love octopus. We had a really good lettuce and orzo salad with edamame, carrots and sautéed sweet corn for dinner, and a New Belgium brewing Rampant IPA to drink

Now I had to look up "Orzo".

so you claim to be vegan?

I can claim to be anything... I'm good at claiming. I convinced someone that I was a Shetland pony once.

Looks like Mauer's streak is ovah.

Next Summer... It's a date. I'm doing a road trip to the east coast and since I can't drive through Lake Michigan.. It'll funnel me right into your neck of the woods.

Well, you actually can drive through Lake Michigan.  It's called a ferry.

No offense... You know I love ya... But if I had to choose between dinner at your house or at JB's... I'm going to JB's... Even if she puts Nuts in her brownies and raisins in her stuffing.

and now I'm picturing RB in the national lampoons family truckster with the wood panel stickers on the side, driving in really tight circles on the ferry so he can say he once drove across Lake Michigan.

Yeah... But then I'd have to drive West to get to your restaurant. It would be counter productive.

LOL... It's a Dodge Dart... And yep... If I could... I would. Just for the story.

In my new commitment to add a M*A*S*H reference to every thread,  I'll quote Charles Emerson Winchester:

 

"Have you ever sampled the delights of fresh octopus?"

Well, I do believe that they are now doing better than last year's record!

Nice win!
