Oh, I love 90s country music. So much. And I love the line about “lonely sweetness” and “quiet possibility.” So, so true.

Jamie Oliver does beets right.

I’ll still like you even if you don’t like my fave color. (blue ties with Orange, b/c I’m obnoxious, but at least they are complementary on the color wheel, and let’s be honest, ocean and sunset, blue and orange, come on!)

I saw all those country artists at every county fair in the 90’s. That’s why I moved to Seattle in 1997 and embraced other genres, b/c I knew it was downhill from there on out for country. (and I kept my country past a secret until one day going skiing in CO, when I belted out every word of a Trisha cd, good times, shocking my friend)…

Anyway, moving on. Have you eaten a Moe’s bagel yet? I heart them. And more importantly, when are you taking your runner’s booty to my state?

Blue? Seriously, Annie? What have you got against blue? OH, wait, maybe it stems from all those years of watching the FPC choir sing in robes that were the blue version of pepto bismal, while sitting in a completely different shade of blue chairs on yet a different shade of blue carpet.
I love blue. But, not pepto bismal blue.

Leslie! Pam Tillis’ “Train Without a Whistle” is FANTASTIC. It’s one of those songs that is so well-written, you know the next line before it’s ever sung – not because it’s cliche, but because each line sets up the next so perfectly, it couldn’t possibly be anything different. I love it.

Pam is one of my favorites ever. All of a sudden, I want to sing “Maybe It Was Memphis” at the top of my lungs.

I haven’t thought of Blackhawk in years… Michelle Wright? Pam Tillis? For The Wind!

Pam’s latest album “Rhinestoned” is actually pretty great. “Band In The Window” is fun, but will probably make you homesick for Nashvegas. “Train Without A Whistle” and “Someone Somewhere Tonight” rip out your heart and then they stomp on it a bit…but in a good way.

Two things: One of the items on the menu last night at Nostrana was a beet ravioli. Jenny had it, I tried it. It was amazing, and I don’t really even like beets that much.

Also, I heartily concur when it comes to 90’s country. It’s what made me move to Nashville, and what’s on the radio now is why I wasn’t the least bit sad to leave the music business. It’s a completely different world.
