Kool-Aid, Cookies, & Fast Cars
The gals have one of those good old-fashioned & un-rushed conversations that are so hard to come by anymore. Must be the heat that sent them into lanquid territory.
Well...there were a few tense moments when Byron let loose about her love of Skype & Alicia came up with a new word....
