In the past lit...Yes, you got it spelled correctly. In the past little bit I finally got a local supplier to finally stock this item for me. It took them several weeks to finally commit to stocking and finding the item but I promised them I would purchase. They even keep one specially tucked under the front counter just for me, ah, this is Texas at its finest level of hospitality! While messing around with my iPad keyboard one day I accidentally hovered on a vowel too long and a popup menu of fancy O's showed up! So I tried all of the keyboard and found the Fancy Frenchy French E's for Bénédictine, 2 out of 3. Now Ernest can do É's with ease. Then I thought I should gussie up my name as well, so Érnést, but I have no idea how the French would promounce me. (Hah, I love my m typo, so I left it in place so you could see 'promounce'. )<br /><br />Tamie and I went on a big date to On The Border last night while we ran to Amarillo for some business items. She was ready for a slightly fancier meal, but of course I wound up getting 1 and 1/2 meals, so now I won't eat for about 24 hrs to compensate. They make a wonderful fajita meat with bacon and cheese, mmm. I have started walking more on nice days so I am getting in shape a little more than normal.<br /><br />My younger son and his wife will make it home on Sunday evening for a few weeks so that will be a blessing for everyone, especially Cooper. I have been prepping him as usual by talking about my son and showing Cooper his photo, so I now he has less than 48 hours until his former master comes home for awhile.esbbostonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09946279220170973147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069358376031242104.post-33551833561872678782011-12-17T02:44:05.202-05:002011-12-17T02:44:05.202-05:00Or I could get one of those strange containers tha...Or I could get one of those strange containers that everyone carries about and fill it with Benedictine, did I spell that right, and tell them it is medicine. I think that might stymie my attempt to stay sober however. And I have no idea where you would find that here. Maybe Campari and call it cough medicine.fmcgmccllchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00184250774341700041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069358376031242104.post-10526679200501730722011-12-17T01:23:19.690-05:002011-12-17T01:23:19.690-05:00Oooh, pizza denial, how evil of them.
