lyrics are especially tough

B: I LOVE ROCK N' ROLL! So put another diamond in the juicebox, baby!

*****
B: (muttering: Paint your smile) ON YOUR LIPS!
(muttering again: Blood red nails) ON YOUR BAG OF CHIPS!
Shot through the heart and you're to blame!
You give love A BAD NAME!

*****
A: You know, for the longest time I thought "Rock the Casbah" was actually "Rock the Cats Paw," and I thought it was an unusually sleepy bar to gain such reknown.
R: You're kidding.
A: I wish I was.

*****
B: Mom, can I have Eggo waffles for breakfast?
A: Sure!
B: And can I have raspberry compost on top?

*****
Raspberry Compote (no, Aubie, I'm not sending any - the ugly jars are THAT ugly!)
1 cup melted butter
2 cups powdered sugar
3 cups crushed raspberries

Stir together until well blended. Use immediately or freeze (stir regularly while cooling so the butter doesn't separate). We like it on waffles or French toast, but it can also top cakes or go in hot cereals.

You know that song by the Fray from 2 summers ago, "You Found Me"? Well, when he was saying "Just a little late," I realized I kept singing to the radio, "Truck stop lemonade." I had never really stopped to think about why that made no sense, it's just what I thought they were singing...(turns out "just a little late" makes much more sense.)
