Introduce Yourself Here

Mmmm, choux pastry - you devil! G is just cooking pasta and I'm drinking white wine (no calories in white wine, right?) But seriously, next time I see Haraki-san I have to able to wear my super-black bootcuts they shortened for me in about 30 seconds flat in Japan… Ain't life tough sometimes when you have an efficient body (low metabolic rate)? Great to meet you
-
Lovely to meet you, too Shooba-Dooba! What a hideous photo! I'm probably not that much better in the flesh (but I hope slightly so). G talks about you ALL the time, feel like I know you already. So sorry about all the probs you had with Eurostar on recent trip. Hope to meet you in San Francisco soon or your next visit to Europe. Thanks for being in touch and for being such an great and influential part of our lives!

Mrs. Giles…C'mon ! You don't look hideous at all in that photo. When I first saw you sporting that orange IH parka, I myself wanted one. G mentioned that you may be in San Francisco @ around Christmastime this year -- and if so, I would love to meet you for coffee/lunch/dinner/whatever ! I'm thankful for the denim community I've met on this forum...you've all become a part of my life !
-
Welcome Mrs. P!!! Glad to see you on here. It has been some time since your first post. Hope to see you in LA or SF sometime soon. ANd by the way, you look lovely.

Shubs and Landocal - you are both too kind! Yes, we will definitely get back to California this year - it's been too long. Feels like you are family - Giles is thriving on your friendship, and I have been enjoying the IH Forum life vicariously so decided to throw myself into the mix - I think I could easily become addicted! Look forward to seeing you in US or England, and will soon post some pics of our recent trip to South Africa (mainly photos of birds - sunbirds, sugarbirds, owls, and a few random critters like meercats), just hope I don't get thrown off Forum for going off topic… whew, there's a challenge...! Night, night!

Paula - so nice to have you here - and you know what they say..winter is the time for good food , lazy nights in front of a fire place. And watching the Olympics

Catch you both in the Bay one day. Toodles!

Thank you all for your very warm welcomes! I'm just trying to scheme another short skiing break with one of my sisters over Easter - trying to justify it to G by saying that I need to get more wear from my IH down jacket, it's just too warm for everyday use so I need to go to the snow…! (Think he'll fall for it...?)
-
He might…lol...perfect time for skiing, too..sunny glacier , I start crying thinking about it..not sure if we can fit it in this year. Watching the Olympics makes it extra tough...

what is it with this board and counting the calories…white wine actually helps you burn calories - you should´nt drink a whole bottle - but enjoying the good things in life makes sense.

Interesting article about alcohol and burning calories, I really didn't know that. Another calorie-burning effect of white wine for me is when I become increasingly animated and end up dancing around the room! Glug, glug….

Not everyone has your metabolism Beats. If I didn't exercise like a maniac and neurotically watch my diet…I would not be lean -- trust me on that. Your DNA has a lot to do with what you can get away with. As for wine or any type of booze -- as you know, I don't prefer it. But I also don't need "the help" if you know what I mean...I'm rather uninhibited by default.
