Hi, B! Do you have a favorite composer?

PGM - thank you! I wanted to put something in, and I misplaced it. What is an idva reader? Avid?

Tania- too many composers to list, but among my favorites are Rachmaninoff, Bach, Mahler, Golijov and Beethoven. Hope you are well.

Hi B!
Great list. I was excited to know most of the answers. The big question is...Have you tried vanilla nut creamer for your coffee? It makes your coffee 1000 times better.

Hugs to you and A!
Annie

Barb--
What great answers. Totally agree about the dog lover answer. That is how you and I initially bonded!
((Astro, Forrest, Nicki))

One time when I went to Europe they were at the height of Hoof and Mouth disease and it was such a huge deal that I would not eat red meat for 2 years--I caved for some prime rib though..and now I am once again a red meat eater. I wish I could be totally vegetarian though.
You would make a great composer.
I love Paris too.
I also clench my jaw and have to wear a nightguard. ACK. It is due to stress.
I have NO sense of direction either!
Your answers were great!
XOXO to you and Astro!

Annie-even though it was a slight sass it was still a sass--smartass! HA

Whoops I meant you would make a great conductor--not composer. You would probably make a great compser too though...or rabbi!

xoox

Annie, I have not tried vanilla nut creamer, but based upon your raves, I will definitely try it! I know you are a huge fan, and it comes with a steller recommendation.

Thank you Jen for making me raise to this challenge. LP -Einstein was indeed a great master.
