The first thing R did when we sat down was clutch the menu and say “I can order everything!!!!!” Thanks to the DeCadence recent history party, It’sgeoerbirthdaygorgergorb (flyingbear) and maybe Alan: 1. Two peanuts were walking down the street. One was assaulted… peanut. 2. Two marshmallows were… Continue reading i like my cashews a-salted and a-roasted.
