Dinner with a blogging legend

This is what I looked like as I sat at a table in a wonderful restaurant with EL, bb (and B the lurker, naturally). Lurkers.are.always.with.us.

I only took a break from smiling and laughing so as to eat, that goes without saying though, doesn't it?

Here I am again, smiling and laughing. At one point, bb&EL&B took part in what can only be described as a Funny Competition in which each competed "in the round" with each other, coming up with one-liners in at attempt to outdo each other. Soon, EL had folded (I know. Stamina. She had it not) and oh my but how well did B do against the hysterically funny bb!!! I cannot even begin to imagine what the other diners thought of us. Some very good wine may have been consumed as well, so, you know, it was a very very good night.



Sitting with bb, the wonderfully petite blogging legend who introduced me to EL, and of course to each and every one of you, was indeed a true highlight of my trip.
Ah yes, the miracle of blogging. If blogging was a religion, I'd convert, because it has brought me so much happiness.
I'm now off to the airport to return home.
See you back home.

I have a cupcake hangover.

I wish we could've stayed longer, but I don't think I could've done one more cupcake shop without exploding. Rest assured, I will be in training for Cupcake 2011.

Eleanor!!! You are so lovely and serene, just like your picture. Only lovelier. And more serene.

Eurolush and I had such an amazing time. We kept pinching ourselves -and each other - on the plane home. Until the other passengers complained and the flight attendants asked us to stop.

By the time you read this, you'll be home with Blue! Mattie sends her regards.

ANONYMOUS AND PROUD,
B.

Blogging has brought happiness to me too and a clarity to my life. I think it may be the cessation of forward motion, the pause in the stream of movement that brings the focus. It is good. I like all of the community as well. Actually, Maybe that is the best of all.
