Will bribe for friends

July 4, 2011 |
Annie Parsons - Mt. Elbert

By this time on Saturday, I had already climbed to the top of the highest mountain in Colorado.

Annie Parsons - Mt. Elbert

Today, I am still in my pajamas, drinking coffee, and trying to figure out how I’m going to survive today’s heat.  I think I’ll bake for the neighbors in hopes of being invited to their BBQ that I overheard them talking about through my office window when they were on their front porch.

You wish I was joking.  I kind of wish I was joking, too, but… the cake is in the oven.

    First, a question. What the pluck is a pluck? Also, can I suggest you attempt these cupcakes to make friends?:

    I would, but I eat while I bake and there would be nothing left by the time I got to assembling it all.

    You are the best looking woman on top of Mt. Elbert, maybe EVER. My baby. My daughter the mountain climber. I am so proud of you. And jealous. Kinda hard to find a peak in Austin. . .

    I wish I could have been your 4th of July buddy. :-/ I wouldn’t be able to help with the mountain climbs though.

    It totally worked. I got invited. But I didn’t go. I don’t know – by the afternoon, I just lost interest. Why am I so fickle?
