<---would like to make more time for playing
<---is sorry Liann's hummus was too garlicky
<---looooves hummus, but only if it's just "perfect" (which <--- realizes is totally subjective)
<---has had bad hummus and so-so hummus, and also amazing hummus

RE: <---it's late Sept and I really should be back at s...

<---tells Em that yes, Harry Potter is on those 2 sister's "banned" list
<---says it is really ironic, because her DM & DF LOVE Harry Potter and have all the books/movies
<---does have one sister who likes HP, and knows she would let her son dress up, but it's the other two who are muddy sticks....
<---adds that her SIL (who also lives nearby with 2 kids) is also a stick in the mud, so just cannot win!
<---is glad that her parents are not like this though and always let her decorate the house and dress up - even has picks of her parents dressed up at Halloween
<---isn't sure where we went wrong raising those other two... ;)

<--- is sorry Liann's sis's are muddy sticks but glad her parents aren't
<--- loves Halloween & seeing all the kiddies come to the house all dressed up!
<--- glad to have a fellow piano player here... Evily!

<--Says Liann is welcomed to attend <--"s Halloween extravaganza. Costumes are required.
<--'s DH wears a shirt every Halloween that says "This IS my costume."

<--LOVES Halloween and thinks it is what one makes of it
<--Wonders if Liann's stick-in-the-mud siblings also don't do Santa?

RE: <---it's late Sept and I really should be back at s...

<---tells Kel that <--- was never forced to play as a youngster
<---wanted to take lessons, but <---'s parents couldn't really afford them
<---had to teach <---'s self to play
<---thinks <--- loves the piano even more because of all the hard work involved in being self-taught
<---stinks at sight-reading sheet music (can read music, but is slow)
<---is good at playing by ear, improvisation and composing, though
<---is LOL at "Steph-in-Sweats" ;)
 
<--comes in singing "or find myself a rock 'n roll band, that needs a helping hand"
<--still isn't quite sure why there are so many posts here in the morning and so few in the evening and on weekends
<--is eating dinner when Robin is getting into bed!
<--tells Ronne that if she learns anything about improving memory, please send it this way
<--sends more healing vibes to Lorie and to Amelia's cuties too

<--says similarly the LDL went from 119 to 107 to 101 (100 is optimal)
<--was really happy that Cathe answered her question yesterday
<--should probably try to get to the office :p
 
RE: <---it's late Sept and I really should be back at s...

<--- will definitely let Stephanie know next time she plans to be in the Nashville area
<--- visits Knoxville at least once a month but it's usually during the week, for an evening meeting
<--- doesn't think that would work out
<--- is glad the tantrum is over
<--- often wonders what life would be like if we adults acted like kids & threw tantrums
<--- would rather wear my tin foil hat & make everybody wonder instead
<--- is EXTREMELY impressed with Evily teaching herself to play the piano!
<--- wishes she could play by ear too
<--- thinks that takes more talent than learning to read music
<--- tells Nancy that there are more posts during the day because some of us are avoiding "real" work;-)
<--- is glad about her cholesterol readings & glad Cathe answered her question too
