This card wasn't signed. Is this from you Dean Marks? There is something about these banana people that makes me laugh. Maybe the guy in front needs another glass of wine. Thanks to whoever sent it.

Munster ... noted

OK Dean, let's say that I'm buying your flambé story :-)) only because it's early morning and I'm not quite sure if those fried barcodes were in my dream or if I've seen them in real life...

And, oh, all of the above (or of the below, rather) makes me home sick. Maybe only the word "munster" could make me more homesick :-))

Lucky Mim & Chuck!

ahh ahh. when the sun shines at a precise angle there is glow on the 'Artist in Seine' circle that shows remnants of a signature. One little smudge on my glasses is all it took to miss it. On further examination, your sig can be felt where it indented the card.  ;--)  Still smiling.

My then boyfriend and i took my mother skiing years ago, her first attempt. That's her in the front out of control on the slope.  My boyfriend and i giggling behind her. She told this story for years.

Marie,

Bananas are never home sick because they are always in a bunch!  Bananas are not human, they are fruit and can be flambée.  Have you ever seen flambée bar codes?

Mim & Chuck were over for lunch and I made them Crepe Suzette.  Does that make you home sick?

The dish was created out of a mistake made by a fourteen year-old assistant waiter Henri Carpentier (1880-1961) in 1895 at the Maitre at Monte Carlo's Café de Paris. He was preparing a dessert for the Prince of Wales, the future King Edward VII (1841-1910) of England. 

My dish was also a mistake as I started out making a Mousse au Chocolat, (Homesick yet?) and it somehow turned out to be Crepe Suzette.

OK last try; Camembert, there, I bet I got you home sick on that one !

but then how do you know the bananas are not home sick? They might be. If barcodes are human too, bananas are human too.

Yep, that looks like a Dean if you ask me.  Are you sure I didn't sign it on the back?  I never put a return address, because basically, I don't want them to come back to me.  Would you?

Can't wait to get my first banana card, love them!

Yes, Alicia, this is definitely the "Artist in Seine", Dean Marks.

He may have signed it as it looks smeared on his stamp.

The banana bunch is great1 hee, hee, hee!
