-saffire

I've never tried it. I've always been too frightened.

its quite delicious...especially if youve been working into the wee hours of the night and you havent eaten anything decent in the past couple of hours except for carrots and humus

Oh, to be young again...

ffmike, I totally agree with you. To be young again! I was prematurely wise at age three. When my fourth birthday approached I wanted very badly to hide from it. I did not want to be four. I wanted to stay three. In retrospect, at age three, you've learned enough of your language to ask for what you want, but you're young enough that no one really expects you to work too hard for it. Innocence is mostly in one peice. Wetting the bed is embarassing, but by not completely shameful. My brother was not born until I was three and a half, so he was still cute and hadn't started teething yet. Seasame Street was entertainment. My father hiding under a blanket and talking in funny voices was even better. My most prized possesion -- my security blanket -- was almost literally a blanket! I could suck my thumb when I was scared, pensive, or just plain bored. In short, life was good. Oh, to be young again!

Actually, I've changed my mind. I made a TON of mistakes in getting to this age, and I have absolutely no desire to go back and repeat them again. I think I'll just coast gently down from middle age into whatever comes next.

Besides, chocolate chip cookies beat McDonalds any time...especially when the neared Mickey D's is an hour's drive away, and the chocolate chip cookies magically appeared in our kitchen tonight.

I still wish I could have stayed three. Food appeared exclusively by magic back then...

it still does.......................doesnt it?

Wish I was fluent in French.

I agree w/Saffire. McDonalds' McFlurries are the best.
But, still, Taco Bell comes out on top in general for food.
Let's face it, who wants a burger when you can have a burrito?

i have never eaten at taco bell...
i hear---however---that mcdonalds makes some pretty tasty chicken fajitas...?
