However, if I had believed all the signs (not supported by the FDA, tho) I'm sure I could have cured anything up to and including cancer with the right herb.

Yes, I was told the chrysthanthemum tea I was buying was "detoxifying." I bought it anyway, and it is yummy. In a I-like-to-drink-flowers kind of way.

Chocolate and tea, two tastes that may well work together.

I have a recipe for a Chocolate Earl Grey Cake that's wonderful.

Some wispy little thing where you can count the passengers and crew on both hands? NO NO NO.

Amy....share please?

The few times I've flown in 12-seater planes, my ears truly appreciated the lower altitude they fly at compared to jumbo jets.

I may be remembering this wrong, but i would swear there was a study awhile back that Rock Stars actually do have a higher death rate than your average bear. And almost all of the difference in the study was explained by hard drugs (including alcohol) and small planes.

Air is bumpy, yo!

The only plane I have ever flown had 2 seats. Just me and the instructor. The plane my son's friend flies is just 4 seats. They live in a tiny airstrip community where their garage is a hanger. We have tons of people here that own small planes. There is an itty bitty airport just a mile from my house. (well only for tiny planes except the Goodyear Blimp which parks there in a bigass hanger)

eta: indeed dcp!

The "little" airport near my house has lots of private jets that fly in and out, lots of them. Loud, esp near my kids' old school.

It's easy and really delicious.
