  10. I thought that's what that poor waitress had to wear to work at first!

    I don't know what's wrong with my links. I copy and paste the code from sites explaining it and then fill in the rest. How do you do yours?

    Ok. I was starting to wonder what kind of "Thai Place" you were frequenting til I saw the caption. Good save.

    I LOVE fresh air too. Must have windows open!

  22. Crust on the apple pie is a crumb crust:

    1 cup flour
    1/2 cup brown sugar
    1/2 cup of butter

    It is so much better than a double crust!

  33. your son is soooo cute!! look how intent he is playing the game!

    to answer your question: years ago i read the book 'the hiding place' a non-fiction book based on corrie ten boom (a dutch citizen) and her life. her family helped hide jews during wwII and also she and her sister went to a concentration camp as a result. she is just inspiring. over the years i have become more and more impressed with her... :)

    anyhow - cheers to organization, cute kids, and great quotes!

  47. Specifically, what it was that set them off throughout the bedroom. Naturally, the specific situation of penis sizegenetics was broached more than once, and these ladies were not shy with their opinions. However, what they said surprised me kind of additionally it will probably surprise a great number of guys. The true problem is truth about penis sizegenetics from two women who have experienced their share.sizegenetics matters, but bigger has not been always better. One in the girls pointed out the fact that very female orgasms in sizegenetics films (where they're generally having sex with guys who have been massively endowed) are very obviously faked.
