Shamelessly Brag About Your Significant Other!
My wife is still 2nd in her class and the last two terms she was pregnant!
To paraphrase the Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers quote.
My wife has done the same while pregnant and @ times in heels.

The only Peet's I knew about not on the West Coast was in CO, IL & MA. I just checked their site and Ohio is also listed.
Apparently, Peet's doesn't even know they have a place in the Show Me State.

Clint: We discussed Chicago steaks on FB a couple weeks back. Hit up David Burke's last night. Had the 75-day dry aged bone-in ribeye. 20 ounces of carnivore heaven. If you go and like red velvet cake...I recommend their cake in the can, which you have to pre-order. http://www.davidburkesprimehouse....

Re: If you could eat only one food.
I felt for sure thelil would say buffet. It's a desert island kind of query and some of you are straying into box set territory. Sushi is an interesting question. I could go for that too. I said pizza yet a lot of things can go on top. We may need a mediator. I'm surprised no one said 'bread'. If w...

Re: If you could eat only one food.
If I didn't have to worry about my health....steak. Preferably either a ribeye, or porterhouse.
If I had to worry about my health. A ruling from the Judges is needed....
Can I just say fish, or do I need to proclaim a certain kind?
Follow-up question....can I just say sushi?
