Have you ever had rhubarb pie? Or rhubarb anything? It sounds disgusting to me, especially since I strongly dislike celery. Vegetable pie?? Okay, I like carrot cakes, but that's completely different - you can't even taste the carrots. I'm thinking I should try rhubarb one of these days. Anyone want to vouch for it?(Untitled)
I almost got run over by an old lady two days ago while crossing the street in Vacaville. It was a green light for me, so I stepped off the curb and was walking when this car came speeding down. I backed up and the old lady braked hard so she wouldn't run me over. I was like "what the hell?!" But whatever... crazy lady. But after I walked past her ( Read more... )Dr. Oprah?
