Re: herbs and spices; OT

got some wonderful memories of drinking grand marnier around a campfire at the strawberry [yosemite] bluegrass festival. they broadcast the whole thing on fm so you didn't even have to go down to stage unless you really wanted to see a particular performer. air was so blue you could get a contact high just walking around. wonderful time. it lasted a week.
