I love my tongs, and I only started using them so much after seeing so many people on the Food Network using them all the time.
Emily must have meant kefir, I guess? But, on the topic, I always wonder if kaffir limes got their name from something else or if that's some really weird combination of derogatory terms and citrus taht I just don't understand.
Brendon's kindergarten teacher sounds like a sweetie. How great that he made such an impression!
I have simple spring loaded tongs and I love them.
Oh Laura, that's lovely!
Anyone seen erinaceous around? Apparently she's giving a seminar at a conference I'm going to in March.
Happy Birthday, Windsparrow!
Laura, I didn't find that stalkerish. And Suzi, I imagine that any teacher would like to know that they made a difference; from what I hear, so many of them often feel like they're working at something that's necessary but aren't appreciated.
In a related story, years ago I read in the news about a man who'd made his career in the fire department (New York, if I remember correctly) and got an invitation to a high school graduation. Turned out that when the graduating student was a baby, he'd saved her life and she wanted him to know that not only had he saved her, but that she was making something of that life. It struck me as a nice story.
It's WindSparrow's birthday? Happy WindSparrow Day!
Happy birthday, Andi!
When you've got a moment, I fully expect a report on whatever adorkably cool birthday thing Daniel is even now plotting on your behalf (or has possibly already carried out).

If there had been other out-of and post-school contact, I guess it's not so odd. I still twinge a little when people from the past suddenly say, "Hi, I remembered you and spent a fair amount of effort to find out where you are now!" Your willingness to be pleased when people suddenly appear from out of your past may vary.
