Back in action. Good! Descriptor of the day: "Swaggering."
More typically applied to wine fora.
Did someone send a message???
Welcome home oh silent one.
P.S. one or two titles left a lot to be desired, but because of the good punning overall, we forgive.
Ahh, there you are. Looking forward to some insights into snacking and sipping in the city of brotherly love.
I'm already cutting a fair swath. The postprandial walks are saving me from more corpulence than a Central Coast pinot noir.
Last week I got a copy of my medical records. In it, one doctor gave me a scorecard that included these frightening words: "distended stomach."
He went onto say that it wasn't distended enough for concern--yet.
Have since cut my wine quantity in half...almost.
