Ah. fresh, fragrant, and crisp--just like a repurposed onion ring should be! I enjoyed it every bit as much as when I first read the column. Thanks, Mr B!
This is so very dear. I still remember a day spent with the two of you when Barbara casually mentioned the engravings in your wedding rings. "What does it say?" I asked, thoroughly charmed. Barbara opened her mouth to tell me. "That's private," you snapped. I am glad you've now shared and warmed at least one other heart.
I did read this before, but the re-read was just as sweet!

It's nice to know you get a chance to eat something besides poutine now and then...
Ahh.That was so sweet. Congratulations to you and Barbara.
Your stories that I enjoyed when they were originally published are even better the second time around.
I like it - very romantic, cockroaches and all!
❤️❤️
Ah. Love enough and friends. You two have it all.

that was back in my asshole days....
Also, I have used the Dorothy Parker quote too many times to count!
I love reading my first installment of your work and look forward to reading more!
Groan. Andrew should have anticipated spell-check when he named himself... Nice catch, Graham.
Yes, what a pain it is. Anyway, grest stuff. Thanks and good luck with it. I see you've got a lot of readers coming aboard.
That Andrew...was he the guy from Marvel Comics? Or the English poet -- Andrew Marvell?
Just read “…Quote…”. So good. Whoda thunk the under that curmudgeon/contrarian shell would beat the heart of a hopeless romantic.
Wasn’t expecting the tack you took when I started reading.
You said that would be the case. Sure hope you gain a growing followership.
You certainly are offering a special read, if the first two installments are any indication.
Well done, sir!!
Many thanks, Marty. Means a lot...
Just beautiful. Romantic with a lining of that Basler wit. So good.
