Ideal Rock Status, WOOOOO WOOOOO!!!! So excited.

[diamondfan]

Mojitos are so refreshing. I have had good ones, I think it is mint, rum, sugar and sparkling water...I really love them when it is hot out. Sort of like a Pimm''s cup or mint julep if I can recall...

sorry yours was vile, Ellen, make sure to try one again somewhere else...they might have used cheap rum or something...

df, as I recall, the mint seemed, somewhat chopped up? I remember thinking, this isn''t very pretty...And there was a bitter taste (too much mint?). Maybe the bartender just didn''t know how to make them, I''ll try again.

Lorelei, maybe that is why her drink had a funny taste!!!!!

I love red wine, but now and then love a neat flavored cosmo, or a mojito...but tend to stick with wine and champagne, or kir royales...but if someone is bartending, here I come!

[Sundial]

Congratulations on your Ideal Rock status Suzy!!!

 

[SuzyQZ]

Skippy/Ellen/Sundial:

Thanks for the congrats. Woo Hoo, I've finally joined the club!! I'm so excited

My apologies for not getting back to you sooner, I've been working so hard, even had to work Superbowl weekend too (ugh!). Getting ready for a huge business meeting and presentation this coming weekend so I just popped in to say.

THANKS FOR THINKING OF ME

!!!!

 

[SuzyQZ]

And my favorite drink to celebrate....

Like James Bond, I like them shaken not stirred!!!

 

[Skippy123]

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooo, you are bond girl!!!
hee hee.
Congrats. I would like mine shaken. Cheers, pullin out a glass to celebrate Suzy''s Ideal status

 

[Maisie]

I need comforting. I just realised that I will never be an Ideal Rock.

To get that status you have to be like this..... (and I quote from a past thread):

...... Ideal Rock has nothing to do with the number of posts but whether they are helpful to the new members and have interesting educational information to everybody........

I find the technical diamond stuff very difficult to understand so it looks like I shall remain a Cut Rock. I wouldn''t dare try to advise anyone if I don''t fully ''get it'' myself.

I don''t mind really, I am grateful that I got moved up from Rough Rock!

 

[belle]

i don''t know how i missed this!

congrats skippy! we must celebrate! how about garduno''s?

maisie, i have no doubt you will be an ideal rock soon! it is not your specific diamond knowledge that gets you there but helpfullness in general ....and you have plenty of that!

we''ll be celebrating you soon too!
