This is our favorite for best dressed from Ginny Spoon! Perky falls with the wind-blown look that would make Marilyn jealous with a whipped dollop apricot standards. The colors of photographing a canyon at sunset are stunning. Bravo, Ginny!

Fireballs. A favorite as a kid and a big bucket was on my desk as a treat for the well behaved student, until that became frowned upon. I can taste the sweetness and watch the red dissolve to white.
