Yes, and I have this very eerie feeling that we're going to have one of those "It's a very small world moments." Could this have something to do with say quilting????

No, I was just thinking we could ask her in the right circumstances, "Where's the nut, Meg?"

Just trying to spice things up a little.

Could this be the first sighting on the board of a ginger tom?

Now remember, Bingley, you started this, and I was mint to finish it. We sage types find this a savory prospect, of course, and we don't see it as a cinnamon the virtues. In fact, we bay at the moon even on chili nights to find the thyme to caper through wordplay. I got some of these from a list and parsley drew some from memory, and my friend Basil came up with a few. I had to pay him a celery, since he's out of a job. He was working in a bar and tried to cardamom and she pulled a large borage on him. But that's ok 'cause he was cumin out from oregano anyway.

I mustard stop this or someone will mace me! I get carawayed sometimes :)
