It's been a little slow around here today. I imagine everyone has been busy on the Bernie & Bear threads.

I just hate that they're going through such hard times. Don't you?

Let's all drink a "Get Well" toast to them.

Here, Gus. I think there's still a little left in this one.

Anyone else want more wine?

Why, hello there, labmouse! It's good to see you here! I hope you enjoy yourself here at A2K.

The Wine Cellar is a cozy place where you can go to be among friends. There's always good food, good drinks and a soft shoulder here when you need one. My customers are simply the best. That's why I hardly ever charge them!

Jacques and Sophie are staff. Sophie is Jacques' assistant and a fine cook as well. Just let her know if you get hungry. And here's Jacques now, with your glass of wine. I do hope champagne is acceptable.

If you'll excuse me, I think I'm going upstairs to bed. It is late, and it has been a full day. The Wine Cellar is in the basement of a hotel where I keep a suite. I'll be back to see all of you in the morning, and if you need anything, please...just ask J or S. Or help yourself!

Stay as long as you like!

Sweet dreams, Eva. This thread is dangerous for someone like me who is almost a junkie where sweets are concerned.

Walter, was that Ulla in the picture? It made me miss you both. Wish I could beam myself over to Germany!

Good morning all, or good evening as the case may be.

Osso looks around for a comfy chair near the buffet table, hopes more people drop in.

Good morning! Welcome to Eva's. I'm Sophie, Jacque's assistant. Eva will be with you shortly. She's in conference with Jacques at the moment.

May I offer you something from the bar?

So, Jacques, what is this I hear about a new bistro opening up nearby?

"Well, dear, it seems that one of our customers, Stray Cat, has been giving us a run for our money lately. While we've been busy sampling recipes for our new Chocolate Menu, she's been hosting many of our regulars."

No! You don't mean it!

"Ah...but, yes."

Y-y-you mean....while we just thought she was passing the time among friends, she was actually...

"Yes, ma'am. Taking notes."

But...

"I think it would be a good idea if you checked out the new place. See for yourself what we're up against."

(Sigh.) Very well, if I must.

"But first, ma'am, I believe we have some customers up front who are asking for you."

<brightening up> Oh! Good! That's just what I need to see today! Friendly faces!
<rushing off to greet friends>

Francis!!!

<kiss, kiss>

How good to see you again! A daiquiri, you say? Of course! But...how would you like yours? Regular or frozen? Plain...or perhaps one of Jacques' special peach-mango concoctions? He's also experimenting with banana and blueberry daiquiris. He found some beautiful fresh fruit at the farmer's market this morning.

Ahh, "Eva's Wine Cellar." Often imitated ... never duplicated.

Oh, about the daiquiri, can I have one with kiwifruit and frozen?

Shewolf! Osso!

Two more of my favorites!

<hugs & kisses>

I see that Sophie has brought you your champagne, Shewolf. Good! And Osso, what would you like? Sophie is back in the kitchen now.

Did I tell you that we're going to have a special Chocolate Menu here soon? Do you have any particular favorites you'd like for us to prepare? I'm looking for suggestions and sampling recipes at the moment.
