I’m over there. I won’t bother to start on a debate, cuz frankly I’m tired of it all.
Ooohhh… You are bad and should feel bad! That burger sounds DELICIOUS, and I want one, but I’m trying to get in shape! tempted I may start looking to that recipe as an alternative to my usual cheddar/bacon/fried onion/honey barbecue sauce burger… Om nom nom!
Crap, I wasn’t hungy, but now I am. I knew I shoulda taken Adderol today.
All of a sudden, I’m craving burgers. How the hell did that happen?
Pear and ginger muffins pulled from the oven and they smell divine. Recipe shall be blogged shortly, assuming the results are edible.
Burgers.
Yes.
Wait, I already have two casseroles in the oven. Dammit.
Those sound tasty. I want the recipe.
Last load in the washer. I should probably thaw something for supper - gotta find out if the kids will be dining with us.
Want chocolate. NOW!!!
Back to knitting…
I just realized I went to work wearing two different dangly earrings. D’oh.
Got my hair bobbed yesterday. Will post pictures once it’s calmed down and the dye’s settled a bit.
Muffins are blogged. I just woofed one down with a little leftover blue cheese from last night… omnomnomnom.
I’m just realised that this is my last day for Thing-A-Day, and I’m going to miss it terribly… I’m a terrible procrastinator, so it was the perfect excuse to get off my bum and start blogging regularly. Hopefully I can keep the momentum going now that I’ve gotten into the habit of doing it regular-like, but I’ll still miss getting to share it with a community the way I did this month (plus I really loved seeing all the amazing things everyone else was creating).
Sniff. 
ETA: Can’t wait to see the new hair, Spaz. Promise to wear the mismatched earrings for the pic? 
Miss Becky is doing a lot better today it seems. I checked on her briefly and am now at da cave (duh!). Gonna get dindin readied soon. Pork loin, garlic smashed N.O.T., peas and carrots, frozen rolls (thawed and baked cause I’m all considerate and stuff) and I’ll throw together a peach cobbler. It won’t take long and will be nummy!
Ok, off to prepare the feast.
Later Y’all!
I’m glad to read Miss Becky is doing better today, Swampy.
I just read your muffin recipe, Mahna. It looks so very tasty, although when I try it, I think I’ll leave out the walnuts. I’m just not a fan of nuts in my baked goods or chocolate. Call me weird, but that’s the way I am.
Hubby is off to the dump and I’m supposed to be fixing my hair. I hate my hair right now. I’m waaaay overdue for a cut, color and foil. It’s not cooperating at all, and it looks like shite.
Sigh, I suppose I should get back to fighting with the unruly mess on top of my head.
Spring must not be far off! When I went to get lunch the swans that live in the pond right in front of the hotel were out of the water and when I tried to walk past them the male chased me! First swan-chase of the year!
I went around the long way after he made it clear he was going to kick my ass. I simply can’t convince him that I only want the best for him and his mate and any babies they have. Silly bird.
I wanna have supper with swampy. Dang, that all sounds good. Tho I’m still kinda stuffed from lunch - it was a big burger. I cooked up some onions and peppers and sausage and N.O.T. for my sweetie, but I wasn’t hungry when I made it. Now I’m starting to think I might want a little something. Maybe just a sammich.
Laundry is done. I’ve finished knitting one dishcloth and I’m more than halfway thru another.
It’s cold and rainy and generally uck here. Glad I’m in for the night, hoping against hope that it’ll be nice tomorrow. Not expecting it, but still hoping.
That’s all I’ve got. Still no chocolate. Sucks to be me, I guess… <insert deep, sad, pathetic sigh>
Well, I’ve gotten half of one assignment done and started on the second half. It shouldn’t take too long, I hope. And I ordered my textbook - spent less than $10 on it. =^_^= I’m finally getting stuff done this weekend.
Since is rarely, or even less frequently, go anywhere other than the MMP, would someone explain in two or three sentances why the splinter board was created, and why we should move there?
thank you
Well, I’ve got the laundry almost all done, and I cleaned out my closet! It has a tile floor, and you should have seen the dustbunnies. They’ve all been vacuumed away, and I have a big pile for Goodwill. It made me sad to see all my cute old skinny clothes, that I had when Mr Rebo and I first met. I kept a few of them, for keepsakes, but gave most everything away. And I got rid of maybe 6-7 pairs of shoes. I saw this one key-uute pair in the back and thought, “Why haven’t you worn those? They are the kyute!” I tried them on and remembered why. They hurt like hell, but I bought them because they were only $5. <le sigh>
I got stuff to make veggie soup, and it’s smells, to quote a fine philosopher, “yummerific!”
And I took the aminals to the PARK! It cleared up, and even though it was very windy and a bit cool, it was sunny and beautiful! Ernie almost got into it with a German Shepherd mix who would.not.leave.him.alone. I had to pick him up and walk away. Lucy was one of the few who was swimming, o’course. 
FarmerBabe - you must have me cornfused with someone else. I didn’t have a birthday last week! Don’t rush me… (I turned 50 in October.) Mr Rebo had to go to Florida because his brother was in hospice. He went to take care of his trailer and his stuff, because his Sis wasn’t physically able - plus she’s a hoarder and wouldnt have been able to at all. :rolleyes: (Long story, and I shouldn’t be so cold.) I couldn’t go because my 84-yr-old Dad lives with us, and has had some recent medical issues, so I can’t leave him alone.
Dang - we’re just full of drama here in the MMP! Sorry to bring the happy factor down a notch. Actually, I am happy 'cuz Mr Rebo is home! I lurves me some Mr Rebo. Heh.
Gotta get back in the kitchen.
“Rosie’s sig” to everyone! MWAH!
ETA: Rosie: Because Ed Zotti sucks, is all I’ve been able to decipher.
rosie, apparently some people are getting their knickers in a twist about some new Pit rules, so they’re taking their crayons and leaving. Or something like that. I don’t know for positive.
Off to find some cookies…
Because it looks like Ed is trying his darned best to pick the Dope to death and we’d rather already have a place established when he does.
Taters, you’re a weirdo… but then again, I do sort of agree with your philosophy, in that brownies with nuts are an abomination that should be wiped from the face of this earth.
swampus, please send leftovers. kthx.
Morgan is all curled up on the chair next to me, looking very very very cute. I think she’s all tuckered out from spending the afternoon trying to hide from the vacuum cleaner.
And since I’m not holding out much hope for leftovers from our resident bahr, I guess I’ll shuffle off to the kitchen to see what I can scrounge up for din-din. I’m all by my lonesome again, since The Boy is stuck at work (hopefully this is the last weekend of this silliness… it’s been ages since we’ve been able to spend more than a couple of hours of awake-time together on any given day)
:p:D
The smooth, velvety sensation that is chocolate should NEVER, NEVER, NEVER be ruined by nuts. I have spoken.
BioRosie it boils down to the biennial, as MOOOOOOM said, “gettin’ yer knickers in a knot, I hate this place, I’m leavin’, and I’m not comin’ back. So There! :p” meltdown this board is just infamous for. Some will leave, some will leave and come back, and new people will show up. So, just life as usual on The Dope.
Howzat for a summary?
Dindin was yummerific! Even if’n I do say so myself. JoeDawg’s Daddy’s (henceforth JDD cause I’m tired of typin’ that out) Father was ever so appreciative. JDD is takin’ his father home, followed by JDD’s partner cause JDD is drivin’ his father’s car. We don’t want Mr. Frank drivin’ at night. I think both of ‘em (JDD and partner) have earned big gold *****s for doin’ that cause that makes for a sixty mile round trip for both of 'em. JDD’s sis, who had to work today and couldn’t be here, will be at Mr. Frank’s house tonight and drive Mr. Frank down and back tomorrow and Monday. Hopefully Miss Becky will go home Tuesday morning.
In other news…
We might have some snow flurries mid through late afternoon tomorrow. :eek: Note I said flurries, as in, there might be a couple dozen or so snowflakes.
Right now it’s pourin’ rain and probably gonna be tstormin’ shortly. A cold front is comin’ in tonight and temps might get cold enough that the flurries could happen. Of course by midweek, temps will be near 80 Amurrkin with Spring on the way. Then I’ll be up in here rantin’ and ravin’ about the neighbor’s pine trees spreadin’ yellow pine pollen all over my deck and porch. Lucky y’all have that to look forward too.
