Hi Arkie!

Update for Arkie:

I think I may have a problem. After work, I will sometimes make myself a martini and I'm starting to realise I may have an issue. At first I had just 1. Then I realised 2 or 3 was better. Now, it's like 6 or 7. I don't think that's normal. They never serve them in the bar that way.

Mr Bob laughs at me. He says I should just prepare myself a dish of olives and skip the whole martini business as it's obviously just an olive delivery system.

The real problem is that many olives start to make the whole drink taste more like olive juice. I complained last time (I think I was up to a dozen, but hey, it was Friday!) that it was like drinking olive water. I'm thinking I'll drain the jar of olives in the fridge and top it up with gin. Then I can have as MANY olives as I like.

My name is Bob and I am an oliveaholic.

You know, Monsty craved olives when she was pregnant.

Bob, anything else you might need to tell us? *grin*

If there were anything like that, I would be sadly lacking a martini to go with the olives.

Wait until I start ranting about how much I want a beer to go with a poker game before any speculation starts.

You will probably crave mushrooms, should that time ever come.

I will NEVER crave mushrooms.

And if I did crave mushrooms, it would obviously mean the child wasn't actually mine.

Yep, you will be wanting fried mushrooms, stuffed mushrooms, grilled mushrooms, and so on.

I've never tasted a martini. I have a feeling I wouldn't like it though. I haven't tried putting an olive in my after-work Southern Comfort. Could I just have them on a plate instead of putting them in the drink?

oooh. I want fried mushrooms. And a VODKA martini. Gin is ewwie.

I like Manhattans. They have cherries.

I think Carey likes cherries

Don't you miss me today?

And? We have large spicy olives in our fridge. Want one?

What I want is a drink. A big one. *sigh*

I ate a mushroom once and I died. Really, I'm not here right now.

I once ordered a martini at a bar to appear sophisticated. One of the worst drinks I've ever had.

I also ate an olive at Xmas time. BLECH!!!

Popeye, is that you?

Olives are yucky.

Alcohol is not.

I actually have a few Bob siggies on hold. I'm going to post them all at once, so I don't keep bumping my sig thread.
