- Last night, I went to Kroger and bought the store brand of Rose's lime juice, Bluebell vanilla ice cream, fixin's for s'mores, and (because I went through the self service aisle) Boones' farm melon wine. Woo hoo! When I got home, the kids made s'mores in the microwave, and I made a vanilla ice cream and melon (honeydew, not cantaloupe or watermelon) wine smoothie.
- Today, I made a limeade slush.
- Brighid also used the smoothie machine and made chocolate milkshakes.

I like THIS color best on my blogpage, I think.
What color do you like?
Is orange verdana prettier than pink trebuchet? What about red trebuchet? I like verdana, but I think trebuchet is easier to read.
What about Lucida Grande? Courier is newsprint type. And everyone uses Times Roman, only this is just called Times. The Visigoths must have gotten to it.
This font size is for the nearly blind, but it is not as large as DOOMSDAY, which takes up most of the page when you type

Funny, that type doesn't look like webdings. Once, when I went to Cisco for a few days, I visited my Uncle Bruce at his print shop. He gave me a dingbat, and said, "here, a dingbat for a dingbat." I still have that little piece of moveable type. I wonder what happened to his old linotype machine. I'd love to learn how to use it. Pappy set hot type for years, running a linotype machine for first The Press and then The Star-Telegram (aka the Startle-Gram).
Well, enough of this for now.

Hmm... looks like webdings in IE, but not in Netscape. Gotta love computers, eh?
Your Blog looks great with the new layout! Please, Please, keep the Georgia font. It is the easiest to read for large blocks of text.
- Trebuchet is kind of cool - I like the funkie g's and l's. However, it doesn't space right on the screen at smaller sizes and is hard to read for large blocks of text.
Trebuchet does look gteat if you use it for labels or subheads and make it all caps and add some letter spacing. Look at the labels for your Comment fields for username and passsword as an example.
If you want a cleaner half-sans-serify font go with the Lucida Sans Unicode. It is now my favorite font when customers want a highly readable alternative to verdana.
Oh, and by the way, never ever use Arial or you will never be taken serious as a writer. -- Well maybe it is not as bad as Comic Sans.
