AllezGirl "Now about that cute rider...I'll be there in March, think you can keep him on ice until then?"

well I mean I'm not even in contention. First of all underneath the AV gear I had the jersey that says "sorry guys, I like girls" and even if I didn't he's in Santa Rosa. Santa Rosa My gosh that's an hour away

Who on earth would date anyone that far...never mind.

But seriously when will you be here? In time for the Cinderella? Oh, you won't find him there.

Kelownagirl, many happy years of upward compatibility.

I'm coming out with another gal from here to ride Cindy...er, the Cinderella (sorry X...I couldn't resist). We meet up with 10-12 other women from Salt Lake City in Sacramento. On the first day we ride the path into Old Sacramento, day 2 we ride down to the Woodbridge winery, day 3 we are slated to go into San Fran and ride across the Golden Gate and then the last day we ride in the Cinderella. I booked my ticket last week and will be counting the days! It's my favorite trip of the year!

[Trek420]

You'll ride from Saramento to SF? Coooool.

[AllezGirl]

Yep. It's way fun. Of course, this year I'm also looking forward to meeting up with all of you crazy CA TE chicks.

For anyone who's wondering...hiker guy called

[mimitabby]

hey Allez
good news on hiker guy!

keep us posted.

My son's girlfriend is having a cookie exchange. I don't even like cookies but
i accepted the invite and i have to make 7 dozen cookies to swap with 7 other people. 7 dozen is A LOT of coookies! I'm making biscotti, made 1 batch which gave me 5 dozen cookies. grrrr.

I ran out of almost everything after making one batch so i rode to the store 38 degrees out! and bought eggs, vanilla and almonds. So now i can make batch #2.
I discovered that the store is only 0.6 miles so i went a really long way because there's still a small chance i might make my goal of 2000 miles this year, i have 92 miles to go. and yes, i am counting my basement miles!

I love biscotti. Is it difficult to make?

KG-Congrats on the upgade!

AG-Congrats on Hiker guy phoning.

not sure what you call difficult.

6 eggs
beat eggs thoroughly then add:

1/4 lb melted butter
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla

mix all liquid ingredients
then add
4-5 cups flour
4 tsp baking powder
chopped almonds 3/4 cup

mix until you get a thick dough and then knead until it has a satiny finish.

make into 3 long loaves (think french baguettes) and put into a 375 degree oven (either cover bottom of pan with parchment paper or a little flour)

bake these loaves until they are golden brown.

Pull from oven and slice

put slices back into oven until the sides are lightly golden brown (or you can
burn some like I always do because the stupid oven ... (i always blame the oven) makes about 5-6 dozen biscotti

Nice, AG. I'd opened a bag of chips and put them in a bowl for easier consumption. Ate all the chips, then dump the fragments in my mouth. Look over and read your first line. "HAAAAaccchhhhKAAAFFFFF" chips everywhere. Good one.

Well, have fun on C- er Cinderella. Send pics. ... er... or don't.

X- think nice thoughts. I'll call ya. Oh, on 2nd thought... don't pick up. It might be more fun that way.
