Vinesh, I'll sign up for some night classes at the YWCA. I'm sure they'll teach me to say hetch.

Moby baby, we gotta do the olive sometime!

hmmm said...

NO NO!!! Not without me!!

Serendipity said...

ok then, i hereby solemnly swear never to visit olive beach in the absence of my charming, unshamedly-staring-at-firangs-at-the-next-table friend!

That list of food sounds like the menu for a wedding reception!

hmmm said...

this is why i love you extremely, runa.... [note in fine print: if you DO visit OB without me i will do to you the equivalent of chop your balls into little bits and make a patty out of it, put it in a mc donald style burger and feed them to "ugly dog" outside atikaa's house (smaller fine print for "ugly dog": no fries with burger)]

hmmm said...

Vinesh said...

hmmm said...

Vinesh said...

Serendipity said...

there's an independent conversation happening here !! first of all i totally know that < > means tags - my question actually meant "so what?!"
