[Cynthia]

::cheers::

Pass me a cranberry scone, would you?

[Susan]

Javier? Be a sweet and get our dear Cynthia a scone.

Coming right up, Cynthia.

[Cynthia]

That Javier. Such a love.

[Susan]

Isn't he?

Poor thing is always so hot and sweaty from helping out. He almost always has to take off his shirt. I feel bad but what can you do?

I think his accent is probably fake. His real name is Bubba.

[Cynthia]

It is not! He was born in Tuscany! I met his mama just the other day.

[Susan]

We do have a Bubba. He helps with the animals. A real cowboy. He is always asking me if I need a ride on the back of his horse to here or there.

[Félix]

Oh my.

[Susan]

It is almost too hard to live here.

[Félix]

TWSS

[Cynthia]

So much beauty. It hurts the eyes. I'm going to go and lie by the pool now. Pass me a nice tall lemonade, someone.

And PLEASE tell Javier to stop borrowing my shoes, Susan. He's out of control.

[Félix]

Love you guys.

[Susan]

So that's where my knee-high boots went!

[Sally, la reina]

Javier/Bubba stole susan's boots?

[Susan]

Javier.

[evie]

He's peeling a grape for Cynthia.

[Susan]

He looks good in my boots. Fucker.

[Cynthia]

Oh, Javier. Those boots make your backside even lovlier. More wine, Susan?

[Susan]

Oh, yes please!

Those boots do have a great heel. They are hell to get off though, so I will never get to wear them again.

[Cynthia]

Get off

Heh.

[Susan]

Heh, heh.

[Sally, la reina]

Is he wearing nothing but those boots? Javier Bardem?
really, guys?

[Cynthia]

Oh he is wearing clothes. He keeps taking his shirt off, though, he gets so hot and sweaty doing all of those chores for Susan and me. No relation to Mr. Bardem.

[Sally, la reina]

Oh, so he's just a spanish pool boy of your imagination?

[Cynthia]

Susan and I have wonderful imaginations. It helps us get through the day. I think his father is Spanish, his mother is Italian. His eyes are simply dreamy.

[Susan]

Yes, they are.

Quit stomping through the beautiful world we have created, Sally.

(You can even drink here. The babe will never know.)

[Cynthia]

Come on and have a seat, Sally. Javier gives amazing foot rubs. You look like you could use a foot rub. He does a mean pedicure, if you ask him nicely.

[Susan]

Where is Jean-Luc? Sally needs a shoulder/neck rub during her pedicure.

[Cynthia]

Oh he is in town. We ran out of Prosseco.

[Susan]

Good thinking. We cannot have that!

We need more Limoncello, too. I will text him.

[Cynthia]

Tell him to bring an armload of peonies for my punch bowl. He knows how to arrange flowers, doesn't he?

[Susan]

Yes, he is fantastic with arrangements! He taught me a wonderful trick for a homemade frog to keep any size stem in place.

Hmmm. I feel we need a nice little luncheon today. Shall we do finger sandwiches and caprese salads or something else?

[Cynthia]

Oh Good Lord that sounds good. We can have some of my lemon tart for dessert. You are just full of great ideas!

[Susan]

Oh, yes! Your lemon tart for dessert sounds positively divine!

We are slightly dangerous together, my dear Cynthia. I quite love it.

::snaps fingers::

Boys, we need the shade cabana ready for lunch.

[Susan]

And for our cocktail party this evening, we will light up the water feature:

[Cynthia]

Oh, YES.

We really shouldn't be the only ones chatting here, Susan. Where did the rest of our guests go to? Sally, come on over! We've got plenty of delicious sammiches for our favorite pregnant gal!

Oh, I think she's moving to a new house. Should we send the boys over to help?

[janine]

Did someone say lemon tart?

[Susan]

I sent the boys to help Sally. What else can we do for her? Should we ready a lovely nap area?

J9! So wonderful of you to join us! Anything special you would like? What shall we do for entertainment today?

[Susan]

It is impossible to spoil the land of Susynthia.

Besides, we have a GETOFFAMYLAWN sign out front.

Now come and have some lemon tart with us, Barbalina.

Barb I made it the other day for my daughter's orphan pal. I can post the recipe. It is kind of a shortbread crust with lemon curd filling. Lemon curd: lemon juice, lemon zest, sugar, butter, five eggs, cooked slowly and whisked then cooled.

[Susan]

D. Rool.

Post recipe!!

[Cynthia]

OK, I will.

[Susan]

Yay!

[Cynthia]

Posted it in the TC Recipe Box.

[Susan]

Thank you!

[Sally, la reina]

I love lemon anything. Lemon yogurt certainly. And I go through about a quart a day of lemonade right now.

[Susan]

Woooo!

Thread name changymaroo!

::gets Sally some lemonade::

[janine]

I'm looking through recipes of cakes to make. I think I want to make three. I have a cheesecake that is to be served with red berries, the second cake is rich and chocolate-y, now I just need something fresh that incorporates lemon. That way everyone should be able to find a cake they like. Maybe you can have your lemon recipes audition for me?

[Susan]

This looks simple which might be good since you plan on making three desserts:
