A love for cookbooks: An Epicurean MMP

Say… You look familiar. Possibly like someone I know on Facebook?:wink:

No! That’s someone I know on Facebook! :wink:

Whomps you both with a pillow.

What do you call it when it’s a Jewish rooster?

Boneless, Skinless Chicken!

You’re welcome…

It’s been a less than wonderful day for several reasons that I don’t feel like going into right now so I won’t… I’m gonna hang up the laptop and read for a while–I have a whole buncha holds at the library I need to pick up so I should git giddlin’ on finishing what I already have!

Sorry I’ve been absent. I was sick, I worked 95 hours last week, and Nelly ran away Wednesday night.:frowning:

{{{{Shadow and mousie}}}}

Oh no, doggio, that’s terrible! How did it happen, have you heard any word, do you have a Craig’s List ad up for her? She has tags and/or a license, right?

Poor Nellie pup, she must be so scared… :frowning: I will keep all my extra puppeh type happy thoughts bent on improving her sense of direction so she comes back home soon. Maybe you should put Thrak on a leash and tell him to go find her…

{{{doggio, Nelly and Thrak}}}

Stuff involving minced meat. Veggies (but not on the wok, damn I want me a wok). Beans. Lentil soup is de yum and doesn’t need to be scalding hot to be de yum.
Hands some more {} to Shadow and Aleq and fresh ones to doggio

:eek::(:(:frowning:

Holy guacamole it’s warm out this morning!! Over 60F at the moment! And wet. And there are a gazillion leaves on the ground that I had de-leafed earlier this week. But I did manage to sleep in till almost 7, so there’s that! And I know the warm won’t last - a front is due thru today, then temps plummet, possibly to the 20s for lows in a few nights. :eek:

Daughter and I are going grocery shopping today for most of what we’ll need for Thanksgiving and the after party. I need to check one recipe while I’m on line to be sure I have everything required. Then I’ll shower and poke the kid with a pointy stick to get her buns in gear. We’ll run to the store first thing, then come home and get back to work in the basement. These final details are taking forever!!

Speaking of the after party, I might see **BibKitty **- she sent a tentative positive RSVP… <fingers crossed>

**doggio **- so sorry about Nelly! :frowning:

Assorted hugs all around, with a few pinches and gropes added for variety. :wink:

Glad to see Doggio back in the MMP, but so sad to hear about Nellie. Sending good thoughts and hope that she comes back to you.

FCM is right, it’s quite warm for mid-November indeed. That’s okay, though, because the cold is coming in tonight. It’s going to rain all day today, unfortunately; I’ve got several errands to do which will probably get pushed to tomorrow. And yes, I’m going to start Thanksgiving shopping tomorrow too.

Wee! :slight_smile:

Poor Nelly…

Morning all- windy, humid day here. Where is my late fall/winter??? :smiley:

ETA: Hey first on ____. What page are we on?

ETA2 8. We are on page 8. Carry on.

Hi doggio! We missed you. So sorry about Nellie. :frowning: Hope you’e getting a day off now.

It is never a good thing for the boss to call you at 8:08 on a Saturday morning. Especially when he’s not a morning person.

Power outage last night at work is delaying a major release that was supposed to go in this weekend. Now I get to go into work to make sure that everyone who needs to know is informed and that we’ve thought of everything. (We have a bunch of external groups who were affected by this change.)

Hope everyone else is having a better weekend than I am…

{{{Doggio}}} I’m so sorry.

Yay Swampy for graduating! I’m sure you were completely sick of training.

It’s our monthly dinner out tonight. Dad wants Red Lobster, which I’m thoroughly sick of, but what the hey. It’s his dime, and I don’t have to cook or wash dishes!

Off to take the mutts to the park. Even though it’s freezing out there, with 15-20 mph winds! Ok - 49°. But it’s beautiful and sunny, and they are so insistent.

Later!

I confess.

I’m a puppy cam addict.

Aww. Do you want me to send you chocolates? I will.

{{{doggio}}} here’s hopin’ Nelly returns safe.

I just reupped Country Woman and Birds and Blooms subscriptions for mom. She lurves those magazines! Anywho… her bday is in December so those are her birthday present from me for the past several years. I’m such a good son! :smiley:

SmartiePants HEE! I liked that.

It’s cooler than yesterday. Yesterday it rained almost four inches and was warm all day. Today it’ll be mid 60s. Good weather to dig up and transplant palm trees.

Ok, need to go get cleaned up. I need to make a Wally*World run this mornin’.

Later Y’all!

The MMP is invading my Facebook page, so I figure that’s a sign for me to get my ass back in here and say hi.
Hi!

Up and off to work. I put up posters, and did Craigslist, but no Nelly for a week and a half.

Hi LOUNE!

Yo.
