Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for September 28, 2022

Elroy, on the other hand, is the designated wet blanket.

Elroy is the yin to her yang. Personally I find her yang a bit Yangy.

Well, Francine does tend to gush over something as simple as a well-poured cup of coffee…. Then again, the coffee server is quite handsome.

As a guest, Francine takes the burden of gushing off the other guests.

TMI, Francine.

And in the back, Frank, the designated curmudgeon.

{"If she squeezes my cheeks again, I’m gonna lose it!"}

Nope

Please note her husband’s reaction to her gushing!

Every family of any standing must have one. It’s right in the Ballard St code of ethics, chapter 2 page 3.

One lump or two? OY

Yet with all the things she says are “To die for.”She is still alive .

It’s good to have a gusher welcoming relatives and guests. Just steer them away from the wine and caffeine. :)

She scares me!!!!!! :)

A really good gusher is contagious. Spreading happiness to 2 out of 3 is a pretty good rating.

Francine’s family is in the oil business, so it’s understandable she would be a gusher.
