No. If you have your mind in the gutter of Texas Street, move on to another thread.

Last night I went out to eat with �� and a couple of other teachers. �� is an interesting person. He's written four books, two of them travel books. He has three homes, as far as I can tell. The wife and kid live in the one he visits least often. We ate �ѹ��, chicken boiled with 'traditional herbs' (I saw a ��, a long white root and a stick--the stick is good for your back and keeping ghosts away). Anyway, it was tastier than ��. The location was pretty nifty, too. Up a long one lane mountain road with a village on up at the top. The restaurant couldn't possibly have more than two or three customers a week.

When I got home I decided to make some banana bread because I wanted some and the last time I took some in to school to snack on, �� , �� and the new teacher's aide ate almost all of it. I also pulled a loaf of gingerbread out of the freezer.

Well, the faculty scarffed all the bread down. Got several compliments.

I figure I've bought their love for the week.

What do you do to buy your co-workers love?

personally I could've used more info on the herb used to scare away ghosts..

anyway, I find that bringing 10 or so little brown bottles of Bacchus-F of Vita-100 makes me popular. "Dweji bar" ice-creams have a similar effect

I asked �� about the stick in the chicken. It's called ��....He said it is an 'anti-ghost tree'. I'm not clear if it comes with a written warranty or not. I'll work on that.

Some fruit and �� every now and then. Always goes down very well.

Where do you get the makings for banana bread?

I keep mine very simple, but the co workers asked for the recipe, so it went over well.

Do you mean those dried blueberries at costco, or something more like real blueberries?

They sell dried blueberries at costco here, but for a second there I thought you might have used fresh ones. I'm used to going and picking blueberries fresh from the bog, so dried ones just don't cut it for me.
