Here's another article I found on the original link: http://www.cbsnews.com/2300-204_162-10008285-22.html?tag=contentBody;mGalleryBottom And I've noticed much of this deep-fried stuff will have some cutesy icing drizzle or dainty powdered sugar sprinkled over top...as if to disguise the…

  • Here's a wild and crazy idea, but is this such a drop-dead awesome event that is necessary to attend in the 1st place? I'm not condoning shutting your life off due to ex factors, but if the ex-pressence is going to affect the experence of the event to the point where an out of the norm dress code (it was said this is not a…

  • Aw Taneil! I don't see flaws, I see someone who is taking courageous steps! This is the hard part; starting again. I'm starting too.
