20363. SnowOwl - 10/15/2006 7:43:46 PM Arky, ignore the above. I've found the adddress in The Good Life. 20364. arkymalarky - 10/15/2006 10:00:43 PM Thanks Snow!
I'm glad y'all had such a good trip. If you haven't yet, check out Wiz's pictures of his and his wife's travels in the Escapes thread. If you show them to your husband he'll be sold on the idea. 20365. alistairConnor - 10/15/2006 10:16:07 PM Snow : a detailed narrative would be nice, if you can be bothered!
Al! I love you! (you never believe me, but it's true!) A six-way bypass - sounds like some expensive roadworks! 20366. judithathome - 10/15/2006 10:18:50 PM Arky, I'm saving the proceeds from the garage sale for our New Year's Day party...which, by the way, you and Bob need to come for...you can drive over on NY's eve and stay with us and go back after the party. ;-)
And for anyone else who is in the area on that day, you're all invited, too! 20367. poipual - 10/15/2006 10:31:49 PM alister, judith, arky
Thanks for the nice words.
Judith
What do you mean by ace's fame? I bookmarked his web site, but I haven't gone back to it. Guess I'll have to.
Alister
Do I remember rigt that you live in France? I love France and the French, so I must love you. Maybe you were the nice fellow in Nice who helped he find our hotel that I would never have found on my own.

Since I know you well, I understand that's the best you can do. 20368. judithathome - 10/15/2006 10:38:49 PM Al, Ace is now quoted on blogs like Ann Coulter's and he has even been featured on CNN in a short blurb, complete with his own self making comments...our boy has arrived! 20369. jexster - 10/15/2006 11:24:45 PM I'm jess bein me Al
Good to see ya
And best to Evie...poor long-suffering saint she is 20370. robertjayb - 10/15/2006 11:33:52 PM Suppose Al is being shaken up today?
20371. robertjayb - 10/15/2006 11:45:49 PM Probably not. Looking back I see he is on Kauai. Looks way far away from Hawaii. 20372. jexster - 10/15/2006 11:50:21 PM Oh I get it.
 20373. jexster - 10/15/2006 11:51:04 PM 
20374. jexster - 10/15/2006 11:53:22 PM Actually Al and Evie live in a little grass shack on the Forbidden Island of Niihau
 20375. arkymalarky - 10/16/2006 6:16:09 AM That sounds wonderful, Judith! 20376. prolph - 10/16/2006 7:20:56 AM

Patsy 20377. alistairconnor - 10/16/2006 10:16:13 AM Looks like a cool book, Patsy!
Drove through Maine eight years ago... That diner is exactly the sort of place you'd want to come across, but rarely do without local knowledge; 20378. Jenerator - 10/16/2006 1:11:39 PM I didn't know that about Ace - that's wonderful. He always was one of the wittiest posters around. 20379. Magoseph - 10/16/2006 1:48:34 PM See Ace here, Jen: Message # 3046 in thread 148 20380. wabbit - 10/16/2006 2:58:48 PM  A1 Diner: Real Food, Recipes, and Recollections
Someone has given the book a nice review at Amazon:
A1 Diner: Real Food, Recipes, & Recollections isn't just a straightforward cookbook; it gathers memories of the people who owned and worked for the A1 Diner, from which these time-tested favorite tastes have been gathered. Numerous anecdotes and recollections pepper such long-beloved A1 Diner recipes as Individual Cheese Souffles, Gingerbread with Lemon Sauce, Mike's Shrimp Scampi, Lime Avocado Salad with Pistachios, and a great deal more. A handful of black-and-white photographs illustrate this excellent cookbook of authentic diner delicacies. Here is Sarah Rolph's website.20381. judithathome - 10/16/2006 3:15:26 PM Really, Jen? I thought Niner was far more witty than Ace. His humor had an elegance to it and he didn't have to beat anyone over the head with...he just assumed people "got it" and moved on. 20382. judithathome - 10/16/2006 3:18:38 PM Where in Maine is that diner? We lived in Maine for a year...I wonder if it's the one we stopped at on our way to the northern part of the state?
