Savory: I used a touch of vanilla (bit of cocoa too)in a beef stew. Sort of a mole inspired idea. It didn't suck.

She is a beautiful woman, a free spirit, colorful, and with a melodious voice. I am glad to see all the organic vanilla beans on eBay. This deserves trumpeting. Thank you.

I am soooo jealous! Are you going to make vanilla...ahem, <i>appendages</i> for your lewd ginger-people? The drop in vanilla prices has been very nice, hasn't it? My standard perfume has been vanilla oil for a couple of decades and between that and my cooking it's been stupidly expensive. But even with the price drops, I've seen nothing like your ebay deal--I shall have to go shopping. ~km oh.my.gawd. I am soooo jealous!
