Felicia: You should! It's fun, like trying to solve a puzzle ;)

Shaheen: YES!! I finally did it, not without a significant amount of hassle and hair-tearing though ;) Have you tried making them again after the DB Challenge?

Domi: I agree! I don't know when we're in Paris again (it can't come soon enough), so you'll have to have one for me the next time you're there ;)
