Had a lovely dinner out last night with our friends Kevin and Bob, to celebrate Kevin (belated) and Dean's birthdays. Cocktails at Oliver's and then dinner at Andaluca. Dean enjoyed his gifts of a cream and sugar set (to match the Denby stoneware we have), a digital cooking timer, and some extra special balsamic vinegar. Hmmmm: all food related. I guess the way to a man's heart *is* through his stomach.

Looks like Jim B has an advance copy of BAP 2007. Looking forward to the comics!

A cream and sugar set! A timer!
Well. That was way too easy.

Congratulations! This is so very cool!
Peter, I loved the Berle link. Many congratulations on your inclusion in Best American Poetry . Check out Nicky Beer's poems (she's in BAP, as well). She and her husband Brian Barker (another great poet and Tupelo award winner) live in Murray.
Congrats, Doc!
