Actually one of the first products to be recalled, if not the first, was end-user peanut butter. Not the brand I have in my pantry. But still. I don't plan to throw it away, it'll keep until I know for sure if it's safe.

No, there are some actual peanut butters being recalled:Quote:

We should avoid ALL peanut products temporarily until all suspect products have been identified. The 'bad' list is growing every day. Best to not take a chance until it's all been figured out. People have died, after all. :(

I remember when Clinton was elected and poor Chelsea was picked on for being awkward. Don't see the Obama girls having that problem since they are ridiculously cute and meticulously dressed.
Both Mrs. Obama and Mrs. Biden have fun styles. I really should notice something else but what the heck. I only liked Obama's dress because it was SO DIFFERENT, really it looked like a horrible wedding dress to me but it was just so unexpected. Kind of fun since it wasn't safe. Great, now I have to go find Aretha's hat. :p

Just so she doesn't sit in front of me at the movies.Quote:

I hate to even say it, but did the quartet seem kind of contrived to anyone else?
I didn't get to see the whole show :(
I was at my fave cafe today talking to the owner chick about Pres Obama & she loved the speech. BOth of us admit we still get teary eyed when we listen to his final election thank you speech. I need to go & listen to the Yes we can speech. I have to admit when you ladies were discussing this moons ago I didn't pay much attention!
I slept in today...I was supposed to go swimming but i think i pushed meself too hard on tues am biking with Ian & yesterday morning. I might get to sleep in on Monday as it's a long weekend here. Biking on tuesday morning should be interesting..how much glass can the Australia day revelers break?:rolleyes:
Miss Aretha is wearing her black ladies church hat and she is rockin' it.
She sounded damned good, too.
I thought the quartet was fantastic and especially liked how happy Yo looked.
Michelle's swearing-in ensemble was so classy.
And that first dance?
Mymymy. I want to make a remark about that but I'll practice some self-restraint. Rare, I know.
And there you have my Inauguration review.
Is is just me or does Bernie Madoff look like George Washington?
Oakleaf, I love yo yo ma AND Perlman. I also loved the clarinetist. so no, i didn't think they sounded contrived.
I thought they were thrilled to pull that gig, even if it was 28 degrees out.
I definitely dug the quartet. Simple Gifts is such a powerful melody, especially solo on the clarinet rising from the moment. Aaron Copeland used it in Appalachian Spring, which is in my top five favorite pieces of music ever.
And Aretha's hat is beyond wonderful! When I lived in DC my bus route (not my bike route--too much traffic) would pass by a famous and sought-after Ladies' Hat Shop on Rhode Island Avenue. Made me wish I was church-going just so I could justify buying a hat for myself. Never did.
If I was still living in DC I definitely would have braved the cold and gone down there, as close as I could get, on Sunday and Tuesday. As it was, I was happy to be warm and watching it on MSNBC.
I have been tempted by some very lovely hats at a shop in the French Quarter. Will be happy to point it out to any visitor - they make their own hats (WHAT is the word???). Came very close to handing over my credit card for a $500 hat, before my good sense gene FINALLY kicked in. No I didn't have an "occasion", it was just SO pretty.
