Seriously, folks. . .
I met a perfectly marvelous girl this afternoon, HHW's own DR Danise.
We met outside of Borders in The Pittsburgh Mills, that humongous shopping mall, a few miles from my home.
After a couple of quick photos outside, we ventured into the cafe, with DR Danise's niece, Debbie, where we drank coffe, chai lattes and caramel lattes while devouring asiogo pretzels, EggNog loaf cake and GingerBread Cheesecake - my hips are wider already!
Then we perused the aisles, where I found a copy of Terry Pratchett's novel MASKERADE, which I think she will love, since she is a big POTO fan - and Pratchett nails POTO, LES MIZ and many other stage musicals.
Then off to the cookbook aisle to peruse many, many cookbooks - enough cookbooks to get Da Niece down onto the floor to read.
Then we took an amazing journey through the mall itself, stopping in various an sundry stores - San Francisco Music Box, i.e - and along the way found a brand new store which will only be open for the season selling used dvds $6.99 each or 3 @ $18.00 - so many dvds were purchased. DR Danise bought me a copy of DR Charles Pogue's HERCULES, and I (and DR Danise) also bough THE THORN BIRDS, and two French & Saunders dvds.
I truly enjoyed being with these lovely ladies and I sincerely hope that DR Danise will return to the burgh, soon, and that we can really get together and paint the town!
