Well, back from the party. BabyRio had a blast, she ended up covered head to toe in cake. 😃 I’ll be eating the leftovers for lunch all week. ---

I think I’m supposed to be all excitated about sump’n on teevee right now but I can’t remember. Plus I’m kinda tahrd. It was all I could do to haul the biiiiiiiiiiiiiiig trash can all the way down the driveway to the road. WOE! Really, I feel like I could go to sleep right now, but I won’t. **CupCakes** glad the presentation went well. You did a lot better than me. I think I woulda just said, go to google, search Episcopal church history and knock yourselves out. 😃 Or check out some you tube videos. I’m sure they’re out there. Then again I am a slacker. **Ruble** pish tosh! A Luterun won the chili cook off today. It was good chill. So were the other two bowls of chili I had. _URP_ **flytrap** I will readily admit I buy a cornbread mix which is different from a corn muffin mix. Cornbread mix is not sweet but corn muffin mix is sweet. Cornbread mix is just corn meal with the stuff that makes the bread rise mixed in with the meal. ETA: Glad **riokid** had a blast at her party. ---

Nothing worse than a mix snob! 😛 What’s the difference between me measuring dry ingredients or buying pre-measured ingredients in a box? Similarly with pie crusts. I know I can make crusts. I’ve made crusts. I choose to buy frozen crusts because I don’t like making my own crusts. Big Fat Hairy Deal!! 😛 \*\*FCD \*\*is watching football. I’m in the same room but obviously not paying attention. Just don’t care. I did get the ironing done. It’s been a productive weekend. ---

I did a load of laundry, vacuumed, cleaned the kitchen, fridge, and litter box, and napped. I’m watching curling on NBCSN, instead of the Super Bowl(But Go Falcons!) **Flytrap** , Kitten Bowl is like the Puppy Bowl. A bunch of kittens on a field with toys, and if they move a toy into the endzone, their team scores.🙂 Saw Brady threw a pick 6. that must be deflating to his ego.😃 ---

I am havin’ a hard time stayin’ awake. Yawnin’ my haid off I am! **flytrap** Martha White and White Lily make a perfectly acceptable self-risin’ corn bread mix. No worse than usin’ self-risin’ flour. ---

No worse than usin’ self-risin’ flour. _Grandmother_ never used a corn bread mix! Neither does Mrs. Plant (v.3.0) Mrs. Plant (v.2.0) put sugar in a cornbread mix. She wasn’t from around here. I rest my case. ---

A Luterun won the chili cook off today. It was good chill. So were the other two bowls of chili I had. _URP_ Must be someone who turned Lutheran from somewhere else. 😉 And while I have you on the line ---- watching the BIG GAME? Just think of it ---- red-covered tight ends bringing pride to Georgia! It makes a man’s heart beat just a little bit faster. ---

Now y’all are just being silly. 42 is the score, I’m guessing? Last I looked the Falcons were handing the Cheatriots their rumps. FTR, I usually make corn bread from scratch, but I occasionally use the Marie Calendar mix, because the boy likes it. I add a few things while he’s not looking (it’s a little too sweet). I also make my own biscuits, but I usually use a store bought pie crust. I wasn’t raised that way mind, but what my mother doesn’t know won’t hurt her. 😛 ---

Nah – silly would have been to point out we’re both Protestant, in Full Communion, and residents of coastal states that formed the original Thirteen Colonies. But my fall-back whenever I want to duck a silly question is the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything. And if it bugs **Flytrap** all the better. 😃 ---
