You have yet to sample their gastronomic creations. I do not like guacamole, but the guacamole Rosie created was so good that I could not stop eating it.
jfe, if you are preparing fajitas again this year, you must overcook and almost burn a small portion of the beef. The flavor was so good that it literally disappeared in minutes!
I will further bet that their leftovers would be superior to certain foods that are freshly prepared...

Well, it looks like I may be in on the game. Superbowl Weekend works best for me, I think. I'm leaning towards earlier dates since it'll be exam time for me in March and I should get some studying done before then, but I think there'll be no harm in taking a weekend off in early February.
Fares from ZRH are shockingly high, as usual, but fares from Germany look OK. Looks like you'll have another European on hand for the CBP to hassle if there's a repeat of that Juarez trip.
Are *A options really limited to UA CRJs from DEN?

Another Edit: Bad news jfe - US has downgraded PHX-ELP to a Mesa CRJ... Even more reason for me not to touch them with a ten-foot pole.
