Indulgences on board?

[Writerhall]

I love my expensive, but all-natural shampoo and conditioner. Cruising is sort of like camping, and so if you can feel that you're doing something nice for your body, it just makes it so much nicer.

I agree with the shampoo. The other nice think is gruyere cheese.
Oh, can't for get the aged rum
And ICE, but i have a machine that turns diesel into ICE at Katrina prices... but it is all for the rum.

I thought the thread was about slips of paper that get me out of purgatory faster.

A Blond...maybe a redhead.... any port in the storm as they say.... Oh, and a gps would be nice...he he he

Marine/RV toilet paper...trust me you don't want to have to deal with the 'mess' of 2 ply. Those of you saying, "What mess?" Just haven't been there yet!

Hey, they call those Cuy in the Andes (Guinea pigs, not sons), and they are considering good eating, taste just like chicken. One of my food encyclopedias says that they are kept in the window sill or in a low sided box indoors and fed grass and other plants that they favor, the book remarked on their amazing reproductive rate such that you could own a small family of Cuy and count on eating a Cuy a day.

Maybe that will put a smile on your face the next time you have to clean up after the thing.

Ahhh, yes. Between my husband and I secretly we call him "E.R." for Emergency Rations. I am fattening him up
Actually I know all about eating Cuy because I am Peruvian, it's the food of my peeps. But I have yet to try it.

Saltz, you are too cool. One of these days I hope to make my way to Copacabana, Bolivia so I can sit under a high Andean sun, chowing down on some cuy, thinking about how lucky I am and how life couldn't get any better ...
