The answer is... it depends. If it is just a place to crash while traveling or when visiting like our trip to AZ then no, a view isn't important. If it is an integral part of the destination and you will be spending significant time there, then yes, it is important and I would pay extra.

hey! am I being replaced by an appliance already?! ow-wich!! LOL hmmm what I eat in bed doesn't require a microwave... so I am going to say coffee maker.

I recommend a day in bed with me :-) oh, were you asking about a salad? I like a mixed spinach salad with honey mustard dressing and grilled chicken slices (plenty of veggies too including bell peppers)

hmmm, it has been a long time since I made a sandwich on bread. I have usually been using buns. If it is a fishstick sandwich, no cutting. If it is a grilled cheese, diagonal cuz it is easier to dunk in the tomato soup. If it is lunch meat, either direction or not at all is okay. I can't remember the last time I made myself one of those though. I am more likely to take lunchmeat and cheese slices and make a rollup and skip the bread all together. The exception would be a turkey breast sammich from subway and then we are back to a bun again.

I do like grapes (and grape juice). my favorite soda growing up was Jolly Good Grape (and it was the winnings from betting on Vikings games with my 8th grade English teacher). I like all varieties of grapes. What I usually see up here are red seedless and green. I am most likely to come home with a bunch of each but if I were to come home with just one.... I would have to go with green. It has been my experience up here to get fewer of the occasional sour grapes in the green variety vs the red. It is seldom that I even see deep purple grapes on the shelf up here. I would say peel me a grape but there goes all the vitamins and takes time away from us and I would rather share my bowl of grapes with you than have you peeling them for me :-)

The view isn't what is important to me. I have a problem with small rooms that have no access to outside air. I need my air. I would probably pay for a room with a balcony for that reason alone.

A coffee maker, of course. How glorious to not have to actually get up for that first cup of coffee in the morning.


Salad ~

I recommend a vodka gimlet. SO yummy!


Entrée ~

I cut my sandwiches straight up the middle.

I do like grapes. My grape of choice is red and seedless. I don't like them peeled though. Peeled grapes remind me of haunted houses when I was a child. peeled grapes = eyeballs. GROSS!

eyeballs?!? ew!

T - looks like you will have to peel your own grapes (unless you can find a cabana boy)

Usually when I travel, it's for work. I don't get time to enjoy the view so I wouldn't pay extra for it... However, thanks to all my travel, I am a platinum Marrriot member from all the stays so I generally get a decent room with a decent view... Dallas, here I come 4/20-4/22 :-)

I don't need any appliances... 'cause I'm just a love machine ;-) All I need is a decent woman, one who will stick around for a little bit longer than has been customary...

Salad ~
What do you recommend?
Fat Tire on tap, not in the bottle :-) It's SO SO SO much better that way...

Entrée ~

Depends on the sandwich and the meal and my level of laziness... usually not diagonal because while it is prettier, the halves are far LESS symmetrical that way... If it's 4 o'clock and hi tea (Hi, T - LOL!!!) then I cut into fours and no crust, unless I happen to have the requisitioned watercress sandwich bread... Usually, I'm a lazy guy and just take up my sandwich and scarf it down - it's an efficiency thing ;-)

I like green seedless grapes best, Though in wine, I perfer the Pinot Noir variety these days (yes, I'm a wine snob) :-)

IT seem that men who eat sandwiches have issues about how they eat them. Note to self - put that on "the test for the next one"
I roll my eyes...
sandwich issues next to the issues about their fathers...

I won't do the rant about the appliances... seriously....

OMGoodness T, you are SO correct about the men and their sandwich issues. That is pretty funny. Or frightening. Not sure which.

and the machines...well....They ARE men. 'nuff said. ;-)
