Easter Your Father is coming to visit us in Florida on Sat. We are going to have our Easter dinner on Sunday 3/30/08. We went to Sunrise Service on Lake Jackon at 7 AM on Easter Sunday. It was cloudy and sprinkles but warm. 67 Degrees. France is sure different from the US. NO EASTER BUNNIES.

few things... 1) the haircut is HOT
2) you beat me to London by about 6 months... I'm going on the UK trip next fall with Margaret, Dr. Menzer, and Dr. Barrington :D London and Dublin aren't going to know what hit them once Ben, Ingle, Aly, John, and I get there...
3) every time you describe the desserts you make for your students I am jealous of them.
4) I MISS YOU AND I LOVE YOU!
London?! For the record, when I saw the "O Rare Ben Johnson" marker at Westminster, I jumped up and down, squealing and doing Jimmy's seal impression. I also had about the same reaction when I realized that I could touch Dickens and Handel at the same time.
Also, your hair is super hot. You look like an awesome french flapper---but a cute respectable one, not a sketchy bootlegging one. :)
I'm so glad the drugs did the trick! I'd hate for you to have been all miserable. And it was absolutely wonderful to talk to you last week!!!!!! Of course, all of your flying around probably got you in the sick condition. Hope you're 100% soon!
Valentine Day You didn't mention anything about Valentine Day in France. I sent your valentine to your home in US. It will be there for you when you come home. Happy Valentine Day.

Mardi Gras... if that's not what you're referring to as "getting crazy" then i don't know what is! i'm so jealous that you'll have loads of fun stuff to do for mardi gras. live it up!!! :)
oh that all sounds like too much fun! i loved the part about your singing to the class. the futons would be proud! also, my frist thought when you started talking about English Christmas songs was the Billy Mack hit in Love, Actually, and then you mentioned that... too funny! miss you and love you!
Oh, it makes me so nostalgic to read about Corsica! I have such fond memories of the train putt-putting over the rugged landscape, stopping occasionally to let the cows move from the tracks.
TURKEY... or chicken... day It sounds/looks like you had a fun thanksgiving! and that you have at least exposed if not converted the foreigners to the good side of the south: FOOD AND FUN! Sweet potatoes are my FAVORITE so I don't blame you for the double dosage.
favorite quotes from this post... "I hissed back at him."
"Will Hamilton and I die out in the Corsican wilderness?"
Love the chess picture, very nice. The others are great too! Post more soon!
Picnic food It's ok with me if you want to prepare your picnic food for me when you get home. Glad you are having fun and keeping your hand in on baking, cause we consider you the baker of our family
Love Bimbi
