What great taste in music and profanity you have, my dear. I always knew I liked you.

Have you tried the Haagen Dazs Rocky Road version? First, almonds instead of walnuts. Second, marshmallow creme instead of regular marshmallows. Rocky Road was always a favorite; now, however, I am addicted.

Thanks for sharing. I love your list. Tracy

I just finished watching the first season of Supernatural and am enjoying it. Two cute boys, spirits and otherworldly creatures, and a cheesy plot. What's not to like? :-)

80s hair metal may actually be my most surprising guilty pleasure, too!

Why archeology? It is an interesting and off the beaten path choice. Rocky Road is right up there with Mocha Almond Fudge.

Good Gravy! You are TOO hot girl. I can't say it enough.
