2. I'm qualified to cook potatoes.
The Irish leveraged the potato.

14. As an Irish woman

You did well! :D

26. What is your opinion of the following joke?
"What is an Irish seven course meal?"
"A six pack and a potato."

19. I don't color my beer or my potatoes.
Both are homemade and unadulterated.

6. Nice to put some more faces with names!
And, dearest Peggy, your hair is so long! I'm envious. I try to grow mine out, but get impatient & cut it off just as it reaches my shoulders each time.

9. My dear KC2!
Ah, getting it longer has been easy...

I mostly wear it up...and so don't see it this way too often! It's a treat for me to have it down!

We are having a very good time, indeed!

10. Damn! I didn't realize there was a meetup :-(
I drove all the way here from Austin, Texas. The only hotel I was able to find is in Baltimore though. Great city, just not easy to get to DC because the train tickets are all taken already.

17. It wasn't really planned as much as it just happened
I've know evl for a few plus years now. After Obama won, we invited him and a few friends out here. evl and Peggy were talking and my husband and I ended up inviting Peggy. Until a couple of days ago we thought liberaltrucker was going to be able to drop by. So, it just sort of happened and has grown and shrunk over the past few weeks depending on people's schedules. fwiw, most of the people will be here until Thursday if you want to drop by on your way back, we'll be here. Just PM me.
