AUBREEVISION - Observations from the far side of the dial

It's planting day! It's planting day! Bought me some impatiens and it's planting day. While I've generally gone with a yellow/orange medley in years past, this summer's window-box theme is a profusion of pink -- loud, in-your-face, slap-you-happy pink. I'm far from being a green thumb, but my annual window-box planting excites me. It's confirmation that summer is here, complete with long nights and front-porch sits. Because like Monty Burns says, "Who doesn't enjoy a good sit?"

Post-planting, the gang is coming over for chocolate fondue -- front-porch style, of course. I need help eating my phone company chocolate (see previous entry). And what better way than with tiny pitchforks, open flame and a smorgas-frickin'-bord of summer fruits? Oh, and wine. Don't forget the wine.

Hee hee!

Question: why is one of every three recently-born celebrity babies called Lola?
