. with a combination of beer and chocolate. I may have to adapt this recipe. .

Exhausted. Cooking is hard work. This chili is amazing, though. I didn't realize what depth of flavor you could get. .

@Douglas_Bass> Hi Doug. For some reason, twitter does not update with messages you send me. Saw your posts, found the aspie answer. .

Making chili. with chocolate, dark beer, cinnamon, cumin, and coriander. Kitchen smells like a souk! Hope it comes out ok. .

Umm, Debra. is that little girl. err, crying? She doesn't look like the Mel!.

Thinking how fortunate I am to know a Twittering genius like Debra Hamel. I am in awe.

@Doulas_Bass> Ok, finally saw the Chuck E. Cheese post. Got that off my mind. Now, what's an "Aspie", Douglas?.

Looks like stock market high 'could' be in. For the next two years. China looks much worse than the US market.

Wow. so much pressure. must conform. .

@Susan_Vicotria, Debra is remarkably perceptive, Susan. Quite nice!.

Looks like Venice, as well as Rome this fall. Got an email from the Contessa, and she has concluded arrangements to tour the Arsenale.

Ok, broccoli with the crowns dusted with a bit of sugar, and roasted with olive oil and kosher salt.

But why worry? I'm a conflicted soul no matter what relationship I'm in.

Yes, its definitely a problem. But the evidence, while stereotypical and circumstantial, is still compelling. (nods head sagely).

Trying to figure out how to earn frequent flyer points for buying eyeglasses. Deep thoughts.

@susan. you need to try *my* version of booze! And homemade hollandaise sauce. And lemon caper sauteed scallops. Or red wine reduction.

Had eggs benedict with Salmon. Pretty good. I like hollondaise alot, so this is a cheap way to live rich.

And don't forget the chambord, at least. Susan will be the latest in a long line of women I have seduced using this recipe.

I hate these massacres. Shouldn't these people be in the military instead of college? I need a peach ice cream soda with rum and chambord.

Roasted prime rib with fresh horseradish, from the large end. eggs benedict. pan fried oysters. Spaghetti pancetta with capers. .
