Well, I'm flattered, both at the idea that Del-Norm feels inspired--and at the idea of being seduced by food talk, Slip. I know P4B and Skink can both cook, too. I'm not sure about Geonagual, but we'd have hiking and nature walks even if he couldn't, and he likes rocks and geological things. What about a plural marriage? And Slip, you can cook to your heart's content in my kitchen. It's nice. Viking commercial-style range. My new Shun knives. Calphalon and All-Clad cookware. A big Sub-Zero fridge. Plenty of chopping blocks, sinks, and nice dishes. I think you could be very happy here, and I could be very happy with over-salted food. I'm a salt-aholic. Seriously.

That does it. Who's going to break the news to Dave Byrd? Frankly, with food in the picture, he's quite likely to throw this marriage wide open and look the other way. He likes me pretty well. But he loves food.
