I have a friend who is also not a Swiss miss. She is a Miss Wiss.

I would love to have flocktails in Chicago! Never been there.

Ringers. Not floaters.

I may have to muster up some ringers, Amanda Mae.

Juneteenth. Indeed.

Drinks in Chicago on Juneteenth. Would that I could be there!

Sheila! Let us see one another next Friday, the 19th. Is this amenable? I will tell you all my Swiss stories, although I am mostly out. Anyone else for Chicago clusterflocktails?

Of course not. Nobody will ever confuse Sheila Ryan or Amanda Mae Meynke with a Swiss Miss.

Ditto, Cindy, re: Amanda Mae’s way with a story.

If I can make my way to Chicago to see her later this month, I will stamp my feet and whirl about and chant, “More stories! Amanda Mae! More stories! Amanda Mae! More stories! Amanda Mae!”

(Can you even imagine a Swiss person doing such a thing?)

I love the way you tell stories, Amanda Mae. I could listen to you all day. (Another good thing from clusterflockstock–I can now hear what’s written.)

Amanda Mae, I am just glad that you did not wind up an indentured servant to some cold and calculating family of Swiss innkeepers. Hell, you might still be there.
