Thank you Cravate - You would be happy to know that Mrs. Spoo hails from the hills of Deutchland, and makes a schnitzel and rollaten just every inch as good as she fills out that Cavalli gown.

Interesting debate. I really thought long and hard about the PS, and besides a white linen TV fold, there was nothing else I could think of that would work. Red? No way. Yellow? Perhaps, but I thought it would be too over the top. Green? No. Blue? Too matchy matchy with the tie. Purple? No. I thought the orange tipped was a good choice...

Thanks Jay - they are the Milanos, good eye. I love the fit, and I think next sale Im going back to pick up the rest of the colors I missed.

You could have quoted her... she is enjoying the attention she got here. You guys are good ego boosters. And I appreciate your plug for me in a digest... Its the thought that counts. No need to go shaving your legs

Well... she does! Sauerbraten, yes, that too, but it is not my favorite. Homemade spaetzle, rouladen, and some red cabbage and I am set. You are more than welcome to stop by fritzl, and sample for yourself! Ill pour you a Franziskaner while you are here.
