Default What is a "TOAD HOLLOW"
I've noticed that some of you don't have where you are from on your posts, but I see Mary Ann is from "TOAD HOLLOW". Is there really such a place, or is this some kind of place from an American fairy tale? I'm just curious (no, Curious is still herself). I'm inquisitive.

Where is everyone from?

Right now we live in a suburb of Atlanta, GA. I am originally from Richmond Hill, England. I came over the pond to go to Graduate School in NYC and met my husband. We were married and then lived in Central Fla. until we moved here about a year ago.

Here's the story of "Toad Hollow"

About a year ago, AMN and I paid DM a surprise visit. We were drinking a bottle of "Toad Hollow" wine. That's how DM came to call where she lives "Toad Hollow." In honor of AMN and FG!

I live two hours east of Toad Hollow.

Hint: That would put me in Somonauk IL

'Tis true, we were, in fact sitting in a hotel drinking a bottle and posting pics of DM's very own home online... She kept asking me where I was (for FG was the mystery guest) and I saw the wine label, and replied, "I'm in Toad Hollow"! All true! I like to think of TH as a state of mind (lessness).

*holding up flat hand & pointing at pinky knuckle*

I live right chere.

Here's the actual bottle at the actual moment:

I've never seen "Toad Hollow" wine. Is it any good?

This tale has me splitting my sides. I was going to google the city of Toad Hollow before I inquired. Thank you, Cheryl and Cindy!

It was a freakin riot what they did to me. I even got to be Princess for a day!
Toad Hollow COULD be a place of your imagination, IF you want it to!

Surprise is so inadequate to describe this very well plotted stalking.

Ah yes, has the Country Club gang recovered from our "dining experience?"
