The heck with the olive oil, it's all about the boots. :-)   Bob was the one to 
first hail the beginning of boot season 
this year. My particular weakness is these UGG style boots.

Kristen Bell wore a pair, tan, with shorts, in a scene in Veronica Mars. Did 
strange things to me and still emblazoned 
in memory. :-)

We buy Greek olive oil from a local importer who has a picture of his 
grandmother in the orchard on the label. Meets our 
taste/price criteria.
