Tour de Fleece

In: fiber

31 Jul 2008

Gonzo, Camilla, and the Chickies present “Free Range Strauss“
Beeker (and himself) bring you “Ode to Joy“
The Swedish Chef and Beeker sing “Habanera” from Carmen
Sam the Eagle with (what else) “Stars and Stripes Forever“

Many thanks to Adam for showing [...]

  • Anna: @Wai - Ahahahahaha. I wish, right?! [...]
  • Wai Wurrie: Step 14) Profit? Ahem, sorry. Couldn't resist! *grins* [...]
  • Angelya: Hi Anna, I just wanted to thank you for putting this recipe up - I tried it recently and it was so [...]
  • Shorty: Rosemary and pork is a match made in heaven. And garlic, but I like garlic in about 90% of the food [...]
  • Amber: 1) Start to write. 2) Get interrupted. 3) Resume writing. 4) Repeat steps 1-3 any number of times [...]
