See, now aren't you glad I was a responsible pie-sitter? A lesser pie-sitter would have violated the pie.
:nervous:

Ew!!!

If loving a pie is wrong, I don't want to be right. :P

Dave, I beg to differ on the refusal to accept food gifts thing. I gave Al and Suzanne a big chocolate kiss and I gave Al his own personAL chocolate Al! And I've given dark chocolate goodies to Jon twice, and gave Jon about 7 of my chocolate Al's in '01, one of which wound up in the Gallery. So, Al will accept food gifts. I think he did so because I made 50 of those chocolate Als for the fans to purchase for Comic Relief charity, so he figured they were safe. :)

This is what I heard (I believe it was from Bermuda) regarding food gifts. Packaged commercial stuff is okay - like chocolate candies. Homemade stuff will probably be accepted, but won't be eaten unless the giver is known.

Yes, what Carole said is what I meant.

At the Virgin Records signing, I gave Al a stuffed squirrel for Nina(stuffed as in "toy", not "taxidermy" :lookround: ) and a sweater with a sequined collar that read "attack poodle", which was, obviously, meant for Bela.



They were both very spur of the moment gifts, though. I don't imagine

Nina is exactly deprived of toys.

Well, thank heaven for that. I was worried about just random stuff being eaten. These days you can't be too careful.



Hey, Rubén? Have you tried this yet? How do you feel?

It would be cool if the sweater was for the stuffed squirrel. Wait... :huh:

Al tried on the sweater first, but it was just a wee bit too snug for him. :nervous:



Ju-u-u-u-st kidding :)

Ok, Dave. I can see your point. But I'm sure Al and Jon have eaten my stuff. They know I wouldn't have made all those candies for the people at AlCon with anything but the best ingredients and under the most sanitary conditions. *I believe 35 out of the 50 candy Als did get sold, so that's not too bad. And lots of my Al fan friends have been recipients of Al candies/cookies, and have loved them. :) I fully intend to give Al some cookies if I see him next time. I'm sure he knows he can trust me. :)
