    Show us your most precious vintage item .

    I was finally able to take a picture of my most precious vintage item - my great grandmother's necklace. I tried to take a closer picture of just the necklace, but my camera wouldn't focus that close. I think my great grandmother must have received the necklace in the 1910s, although the pearl...

    DFW washing away?

    I flew back to the U.S. from London on Tuesday, and unfortunately I had to change flights at the DFW airport. My flight was cancelled due to the weather and I ended up spending a not so fun night on the airport floor. Luckily I managed to get a seat on a Wednesday morning flight - I have a lot...

    Candy Cigarettes?

    I loved candy cigarettes as a kid. I can still vividly remember one trip to an amusement park where my cousin and I "smoked" dozens of candy cigarettes over a few hours. They were tasty sticks of sugar, how could I not like them? I haven't turned into a smoker now though, and the sugar sticks...

    Your most non-vintage preference or attributes ...

    I love jeans, especially low rise. I wear a lot of t-shirts and I own a small colony of flip flops. DVDs are one of my favorite inventions.

    The Single & Ridiculously Good-Lookin' Room

    I wouldn't call myself a beer hater, but I'm not a beer liker either. We're on neutral terms. One of my favorite things about England is the abundance of cider. I LOVE cider and drink it instead of beer. Sign me up for the cider IV.

    Foods I can't find in my present location and regional specialties.

    Aw, thanks! I usually have pretty good luck at Cost Plus stores with finding digestives and that kind of thing though - just usually at highway robbery prices. That is the truth! I guess some food has not only a place to be eaten at, but also a time. I'm formerly of the 6800 blocks...

    Best-restored classic films on DVD: a list

    The Adventures of Robin Hood has a beautiful, bright picture. I'd like to see Hitchcock's silent The Lodger cleaned up.

    Foods I can't find in my present location and regional specialties.

    From California - good sourdough bread, Freebirds nachos, Woodstocks pizza, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf tea lattes, Bagel Cafe, Trader Joe's (especially english muffin bread), and sandwiches from a little German deli in Fremont From Colorado - Tokyo Joe's, cream filled individual angel food...

    Paris

    I like Paris, I've only been once for two days so I'd really like to go back. It has a nice atmosphere, the food really is delicious, and I love the Musee d'Orsay. But the city that I pine for is Berlin. When I think of all the places I've visited, it is Berlin that calls for my return.

    Foods that shouldn't be allowed in your house because you will eat it all

    It was pretty good, but not great. It was a very subtle flavor, mostly just sweet, with a hint of floral. The color was exciting though - bright purple! For delicious lavender flavor you should try Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf's lavender mint tea latte. It was a limited edition type of flavor...

    Your Top 10 TV Shows

    Wow, someone else who likes that show! Very cool. It's sort of cheesy, but in the best way. Always some great quoteables and at least one shoot out per episode! Everyone in the cast does such a good job in their roles, I think that's part of the charm of it. The second season just came out...

    Nutrition and exercise!

    ShooShooBaby's suggestion of looking for a short term/trial gym membership is a good one. I'm a gym membership kind of gal. If I make going to the gym part of my weekly routine I have no problem going. Once I get to the gym there's nothing to do there but exercise, but at home when I plan on...

    Foods that shouldn't be allowed in your house because you will eat it all

    I do the same thing! Just today I bought three macaroons and a giant lavender meringue from a bakery. Suppose to last me at least two days - but they might not keep overnight so I *had* to eat them all today. Plain digestives and Hobnobs are my weaknesses. So much so that I'm having to go...
