Ten, are you sure you didn't go to Texas A&M?

I used to fantasize about her coming over to my house to play Space Invaders with me on my Atari 2600:

I loved your comment but that pic has got to go.

That is not Tiffani!

Ten, are you sure you didn't go to Texas A&M?

Very Funny!

Yeah, that was me rocking the mic with my fraternity brothers.

What do you think?

We really knew how to party and entertain.

I'd put Phoebe up against Tiffani in a Pepsi challenge any day. Phoebe was the definitive early 80s jr. high school kid's imaginary girlfriend.

Dude, you know you were one of these guys:

Took my high maintenance aunt to South Coast Plaza last week, went to Vie De France, where the line is always ridiculously long for the onion soup. What do you know, there was no line at noon time! For the 1 1/2 hours we were there, there was no line ever, so we took advantage of the situation and rested our feet!

They’ve got the best chocolate croissants there.

No line?

Did you go on a weekend, that place gets jammed.

I usually wait as well, no fan of the Corner Bakery which seldom gets busy.

They moved to a new location that is not as convenient. I used to have to buy something when I'm in South Coast plaza but not anymore. The Corner Bakery in Irvine is always busy because of the UCI students.

Sorry, I mean’t the Corner bakery at South Coast Plaza adjacent to the Macy’s Men store.

Your aunt must be Asian. She completely falls into the shopper demographic who like French Onion at Vie De France and Chanel.

Where did Vie De France move to?

Aren’t they on the first floor next to the Armani store.

Vie De France is now outside Saks. I was there Friday, but still...

And while my high maintenance aunt was at Chanel in Bloomingdale's, they told her there's a special. (Imagine a special deal at Chanel!!) Each $250 you spend, you get $50 gift card. That's like 20% off!

Your aunt must be Asian. French Onion at VDF, Mimi Cafe and Chanel are the indicators of an Asian shopper. Many often mistaken Dooney and Burke and Coach. Both are popular frugal Asian handbags. Vie De France is not by Coach. Allison is right it is outside of Saks. Mr. GQ Magnet, Vie De France has relocated to its location for almost 2 years. It is obviously that you haven't been updating your Armani attire. Have you been hanging around by Sears for the last two years?

 

[tenmagnet_IHB]

Haha. :red:

I also like being serenaded to.

I also likes strolls under the moonlight by the beach.

I also like to read a poem left on my pillow every morning.

I also like surprise blue boxes with white ribbons.

I also like reading mystery novels on a Gulfstream.

I also like ....

HAHA.

Are you the same Allison C. that was in the Hearbreak Kid movie?

Hey Bk,

No I haven't been hanging out at Sears.

I get most of my stuff at Bloomingdales now.

Since they opened around that time, stay primarily in that section of the mall

Brooks Brothers on the second floor from time to time.

Once in a while I venture to those other areas.

A few weeks back I went to the Macy’s men store to get more Prada Infusion D’Homme since Bloomingdales doesn’t carry it.

I have not been there for a while. Now that I remember D&K, my kid bought the handbag there. I did not know why she wanted to advertise for them free. I personally would not do it.

No, not Asian.

Just a proud brunette.

[AllisonC_IHB]

Yes, with Ben Stiller/ and this blond got all sunburned and couldn't leave the hotel room? Is that right?

Long walks on the beach

Candlelight dinners

The resort was very nice.

I loved the beach, scenic with the water being crystal clear.

Great place to do yoga at or just go for a run.

Cuddling is optional

Hey Bk,

Brooks Brothers on the second floor from time to time.

What!? You have been shopping at Sears. In fact, this is the same jacket you were sporting at the book signing.

Just call me the fashion maven.

I even purchased a matching red ascot at Brooks Brothers to go with the jacket.

The ladies sure do seem to like it.

Profette whispered soooo hott in my ear.

I'm thinking about buying a matching one for Bk as a Christmas gift.
