F2F 2: Is there anybody here that hasn't slept together?  

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Some stuff in Golden Gate Park. See Map

Here's the Conservatory of Flowers

Which has big lilly pads.

And the Japanese Tea Gardens

There's lawn bowling

And Lindy Hopping (swing dancing) in the park.

And the Sharon Art Studio (where you can study stained glass)

Or you can go boating on Stow Lake (one of Emmett's favorite activities)

Plus an AIDS Memorial Grove, a Shakespeare Garden and a Bison paddock.

Thrive to spite them

Deb, is the chocolate dessert anything like what you made when I was there?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I have wine (although more is always welcomed!)

I full well realize it's coals to Newcastle, but I'm going to bring a bottle of Cincy wine that wins national awards year after year. (Full disclosure: the grapes are from Mendocino county, so I realize its origin is not Cincy. However, the winemaker IS in Cincy, and it's produced here.)

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I'd be happy to go in on alcohol purchases, but I don't think Georgia makes any alcohol that's worth the effort to cart it across the country. Cheese, maybe, but definitely not wine.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Lee, can you send it to me too? I don't seem to be on the LAisitas list anymore and I'm afraid I'm gonna miss something.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I will send it to you both, but I won't be able to until tonight.

Robin, there is a new list, which I am not sure you are on, but there have not been any Nilly emails sent. Allyson and others aren't on the list, so most of the planning has been done in this thread.

Speaking of which, Allyson, insent.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

askye, I'm trying to remember what I amde when you were there! I think it might have been a decadence - did I serve with with an offer of vanilla ice cream and sour cherry jam?

David, you should point out that the Conservatory, in your first picture, can basically be hit with a rock from my back porch, it's that close.

No it was a cold dessert, like ice cream kind of but not...part of it was ganache I think. Very wonderful.
