I don't that I could have noticed that if I stared that picture all night. Which is a possibility...
Exactly the same thing I was thinking..

And although I have no official reason other than all of you being friends, I'll share a pic from tonight's gig.

Or for those of us that like our sweet and salty mixed together, I give you:
Yield: One 10-inch pie
Cook Time:1 hour, 15 minutes
INGREDIENTS
Gingersnap Crust
2 cups crushed gingersnap cookies
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
¼ cup granulated sugar
Apple Filling
4 to 5 medium Granny Smith apples--peeled, halved and cored
Juice of 1 large lemon (about 2 tablespoons)
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground cloves
½ teaspoon freshly grated or ground nutmeg
⅓ cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Bacon-Streusel Topping
6 strips applewood-smoked bacon
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup light brown sugar
1 stick unsalted butter, chilled and cut into ¼-inch cubes
DIRECTIONS
1. Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350°. In a medium bowl, fold together the crushed gingersnaps, melted butter and sugar. Press the mixture into a 10-inch pie pan until flat and even. Place in the oven and bake for 15 minutes, until the edges start to set, then remove from the oven and set aside to cool completely.
2. Make the filling: Thinly slice the apples. Place them in a large bowl and drizzle the lemon juice over the slices. In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, sugar and 2 tablespoons flour. Fold the mixture into the apples until the apples are just coated. Spoon the apples into the reserved crust.
3. Make the topping and bake the pie: Increase the oven temperature to 375°. In a medium skillet set over medium-high heat, fry the bacon until crisp, about 7 to 10 minutes. Drain the slices on paper towels and set aside to cool. In a medium bowl, combine the flour and brown sugar. Using your fingers or a pastry cutter, mix the butter into the flour and sugar mixture until pea-size clumps form. Crumble the cooled bacon and add it to the flour mixture. Sprinkle the streusel evenly over the top of the apple filling and place the pie in the oven. Bake until the top is browned and the apples are tender, about 45 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Good Girls Go To Heaven (Bad Girls Go Everywhere) - YouTube
I love this song. Jim Steinman was an amazing lyricist.

Okay - you are so totally not gonna believe this, but I just saw a pic of a bass on a dating website (yeah yeah yeah - I don't wanna hear it). Anyhow - it's in the background of the "dater," who is a sax player. Anyhoo, the PG has a mostly nekkid girl wearing red boots on it and if I'm not totally blind, I think it's some kind of bondage theme going on. Totally awesome.
Would it be something like this?

This site has a few pickguards with nekkid women for sale.
lol...you sure do travel a lot!

I don't know if that's the PG, but those are the boots, so it could be. It was in the background of someone else's picture. And being the brutally blunt kinda chick that I am, I wrote and asked him about it. Pretty sure I won't get asked on a date by that guy. LOL.
I didn't want to over-excite him too soon. His heart might give out before we get there. You don't want him keeling over when we pull in the drive now do ya?
I didn't read this thread from start to finish, but what I did read made me ponder something.......
What exactly is this thread about??
