Beastman would be a good name for the baby that "Make Me Babies" site spat out when I plugged in my photo and DH''s.

Quinoa is super yummy! Very high in fiber and protein. It can taste odd sometimes, so make sure you rinse it before cooking unless you buy pre-rinsed. It looks like couscous when it''s dry and cooks up to be super fluffy and yummy. I love it cooked in stock and then served with butter and spinach mixed in. YUMM!

I just decimated an avocado

Top five fav foods!

Londonderry...I honestly have no clue where that is!!!



I guess you just need a few days where you''re not planning to leave the house, before you embark on a ''cleanse.'' Maybe that''ll be my spring break!

Spring break in the sh!tter. Sounds great to me!

HA!



OK, gross but funny story. So for some reason broccoli always makes me a little gassy. So last night, we were in bed and I (quietly) let one rip. About 30 seconds later, K goes ''WHAT THE F***??? That is beyond stinky...it''s....sulFURIOIUS!''



Best. Word. Ever.

SHIRT!

 

[hisdiamondgirl]

Sorry...posting from my phone, don''t know what happened. I was tryin to say I''m going to Londonderry.

Ok, so this diamond seems so much more included (see sketch on AGS report) than this diamond yet they're both SI1s. Hmmm

ETA: I guess I should call WF and ask someone to actually look at the diamonds...

Yup.

I mean, looking at the photographs I really don''t see anything by way of inclusions (although I''m no trained eye)...and those are at 40x, so that''s gotta be good, right?

I would need better pictures to really decide. Can they send you some?

Sorry to bombard the SmallTalk thread, but I need some advice pronto from people who love jewelry and have experience with it. My boyfriend had talked about getting a ring soon, and I''ve been looking around and narrowing it down. Last night I was at the jeweler and narrowed it down to two choices. I also got the timeline for how long it would take them to make the ring and this morning my boyfriend was like, "let''s hit the store today!" I suspect there''s a time-sensitive proposal he has in mind, so now I really need to make a final decision about my e-ring.

Ok, so the prologue is done. Has anyone seen a prong-set or shared-prong set band with a bezeled stone on top? If you haven''t, do you think it would even look good?

I have a SMTR thread going on about it, but it hasn''t produced any results yet. So, opinions????

Yeah, I don''t really see them on their pictures either. The only thing I see on the 1.21 is a feather at the bottom edge but the sketch on the report shows a sh*tload of them!!!!

I will call them and see if they can send me more pics.

Hi, AN! I can''t think of anyone''s ring off the bat that fits that spec...let me see if I can find anything for you ASAP.

VC - You around?

http://i2.lyfe.net/media/images/2010/1/20100115154649_25CE.jpg

J just sent this pic up - this is the view from his office.

Someone just jumped from the Wash/4th structure and killed themselves.

If J had not been in a meeting, he may have seen it.

 

[AustenNut]

Thanks, Vc.

And as far as those Whiteflash diamonds go, I''d definitely talk to them about them. But maybe was is at closer to the VS2 border while the other is really close to an SI2 border? Or maybe it''s because in the AGS report it looks as though the light return of the 1.21 is a bit better than the 1.20? But then again I might totally be reading the report wrong as diamonds are not exactly my area of expertise.

Funny, I''m not sure if I have any jewelry expertise.

Oh. Em. Gee.

That''s horrific.

...but I''ve never seen downtown from that view before...

 

[Hudson_Hawk]

I think Ritanti did this a few years back, but the center stones were halo''d within the bezel....

 

[AustenNut]

Wow, Elle. That really stinks. Thoughts go out to the person''s family, though. I think that having a friend/family member die of suicide is probably one of the worst ways for them to go as far as the survivors go.
