    Maybe the same person who didn't expect a cup of hot coffee to be hot.

    Ian wasn't one to ignore opportunities, and his approach was thought
    out. After their first night together, she asked him about the Cinnamon
    Buns scented body wash she'd showered with, and he'd told her that it
    served several purposes. "Above all, it cleans, and it also works well
    as a shampoo. Also, it reminds me of Lauren, which is bittersweet, but mostly sweet. It was her favorite. Then there's the fact that it
    smells great, and I can afford it. Finally, and this is important
    Winter, it reminds me to live my life in a certain way. See, I used to
    be overweight, and when I decided that I'd rather be hungry than fat, I
    had to give up many things, mostly carbohydrates. Of course, that meant
    that cinnamon buns were pretty much out of the question. One day, in
    the shower, where so many profound epiphanies are reached, I thought
    about my desire for the cinnamon rolls, which had been brought to mind
    by the fragrance, and something clicked. There were two ways one could
    feel. One was that the scent was frustrating, because it reminded me of
    what I couldn't have, but on the other hand, if I gave up the soap, then
    I'd not only be losing the pleasure of tasting, but also the pleasure of smelling. My mind flooded with the knowledge that so much in life was
    that way, and so often the choice made was, 'all or nothing'. I
    promised myself to always go for the smell of cinnamon buns, and as a
    symbol, to never take another bite of one."

    Hehe, Bryan...

    The chapter is called, "Cinnamon Buns." I'm tempted to post the whole
    thing. Here's another tiny excerpt from the chapter.

    *****
    Meanwhile, she had started to whisk eggs for the ravioli. She and Ian
    worked well as a team in breading the frozen squares, something that Ann called attention to. They nearly filled a baking sheet, and let them
    sit to thaw before frying them. "So, they're fried?" asked Ann. "How
    come they're called toasted? Toasted isn't fried."

    "It's a St. Louis thing, Ann." Winter was being silly. "Something a Chicagolander can't be expected to understand."
    *****


    I liked yer story of the old guy neighbor with the horse named "General"...

    IIRC didn't Jill's husband do something similar to *her* at 5AM on Saturday mornings...???

    IMWTK...!!!

    And I remember toasted raviolis from my visits to STL years ago...

    perhaps it didn't say hot on the menu...
