Include me too. I’ll be the one wearing a very fetching red and white striped life jacket. What can I bring to add to the food table? Sweet or savory? Will you have non-carbonated drinks, or should I bring my own? ---

Could you get the cute pool boy to bring me one? I’ll be over here on the lounge chair under the umbrella in my new bathing suit. - ::: spies the stereo, turns it up - Sheryl Crow’s 'Soak Up The Sun" starts blasting out ::: \* Now it’s a party!

**quiltguy154,** All snacks are welcome. Did you want a non-carbonated drink or a non-_alcoholic_ drink? We’ve got some sweet tea. **Bibliocat,** Here’s a photo of the [pool boy.](http://img.epinions.com/images/opti/c5/88/hmgdPool_and_PatioPool_EquipmentCleaning_SuppliesAllPolaris_360_Pool_Cleaner-resized200.jpg) His name is Willie, and he’s perky and talented (and talk about cute swishy tail!). If you had something else in mind, you’ll have to bring it yourself. And to whom it may concern: the age of consent in Mississippi is 16. ---

> [@BiblioCat](#): > > Oooh, what’s in an Italian Margarita? That sounds good. > Could you get the cute pool boy to bring me one? I’ll be over here on the lounge chair under the umbrella in my new bathing suit. Just make a regular margarita and add 1 oz of Amaretto. Take an orange slice and rub the rim of your glass and dip in sugar. Garnish with the orange slice. There are other variations, but that is the one I like best. Love it when it’s Sopranos night and we cook Italian and drink Italian Margaritas. That’s how I got started on them. 🙂 ---
