ArchivesRe: What's Behind "Sarah Jeanne Duchek"?
in reply to a message by sarah
Sarah, I gotta agree with Nan that I wouldn't use "Andersen" for a girl, for the reason she cited. It's okay for a boy, tho. Actually, she suggested "Ander", but I believe the correct Scandinavian (Swedish?) version of Andrew is "Anders" (with the "s").
By the way, back in Cleveland we finally had Calvin bring the chips, I brought a watermelon (on the bus!), and we laughed about it afterwards.

@@@@ You're right, of course, Daividh. I guess I must've still been thinking "Andersen" and visualizing "Ander's" instead of "Anders". Should've been thinking "Anagrams!", then I would've remembered that name correctly. :)

Believe me, the largest per capita consumtion of watermelon has gotta be in Greece during summer. Incredible how we've so far avoided being stereotyped as such. You should try it with feta cheese, an unlikely yet tasty combination.

"Feta makes it bettah!"
That's the slogan that I predict will become the new catchphrase of the year, when PriaposLovs realizes his true calling as Spokesman for the Feta Cheese Industry. :)

Gotta try this, but where does one find a watermelon in New York in February?

Pavlos 3:16 would be a natural as a feta cheese spokesman. I know there are many times when he really gets MY goat. :>
So Pav, 'Ol Olive Pit, how does one eat feta cheese with watermelon? A bite of melon, then a bite of feta? Or do you rub the feta around the rim of the watermelon slice to make a festive Fetarita?

thanks. I still really like it, though. I'm gonna have to pass on the feta cheese on my watermelon!
