Mute Monday~ "Food and Drink"
For "She": Food and Drink in my life... The carved Ostrich egg came from South Africa~ The weird food halfway down was in China. The "Corazon" has not been opened, I bought it because it had my name on it! LOL
Thank you Bace man... Now, shall we talk about the pot roast lunch I made- and you left uneaten in the fridge at work all week? :) No...I'll let it go- but please bring the tupperware home (empty!) ;)
grrherhahaha! great to see K9 presiding over the cookie baking. (what kind of ornament can i make this year? "she" wont work) ohhhh is that fudge youre making? wheres the damn pork chop biscuits????nice egg. maybe i will get a red and dovey egg and paint on it for ya. grrherhaha glad youre in the GAME!!! love to you grrrrrrrrrrrrl. xoxo Happy Mute monday!
Artfulslub- thanks :) And if one eats too many of the cookies- one will also blow up! But they were good!
She- Thought of you often yesterday- I roasted pork ribs slowly for 5 hours, then made black beans with a ham hock- served over rice, and green beans (got to have something green!). Oh- I think T and I hurt ourselves...but dang it- I didn't take a pic! Yeah- the food in China varied from place to place, but I was a good soldier and tried mostly everything. And mostly everything was good. But not the fried grub worms- lol :D
Aunty- perhaps this year you will get a batch of cookies too! :) I'm on my way to your porch~
Bace man, I've had a taste of one of those pictures myself. I'll say you're lucky.
Mayden, this brings back a lot of good memories, seeing some of those pictures, as I have, before. I haven't seen the birthday cake photo before, but it brings back good memories of the person blowing out the candles.
Hey Leelee-♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ I saw that someone else had used a heart and I copied it- and it pasted :) All the other symbols I've tried to use just come out like little squares...
/t- in whatever form you send a hug/kiss, it's always welcome, and returned :) ¤¤¤¤ :x
SJ- If you make it to the Southestern US- you have a standing invite to dinner- seriously :)
X- Hugs. I'm feeling kind of blue that I don't have a trip to NYC to see you this fall! Cookies will come in the mail again though! (Nov/Dec :)
Libby- I swear- it's the one on the back of the Nestle Toll House package :) But, I do use REAL butter- and it makes a huge difference. I also made chocolate cookies with p-butter chips (I called those the Black and Tan for K9/She) And I made them the regular way with choc. chips and with p.butter chips. I also LOVE them with Heath Bar bits inside. The fudge is the recipe from the marshmellow fluff in a jar...oh good heavens...I can hardly wait for the fall! :) I only make cookies during the holidays. losing weight is hard enough as it is! :)
Phos~ The little girl is me and I am pretty sure I was kissing the calf~ :) However, since I do like steak...who knows if I ate that one later or not. (ewwwwwww :)
Aunty Belle- I wish I knew when I was coming your way :) But when it gets cooler all I need is a mailing address (PO Box is fine if Uncle is uncomfortable with you giving me the real thing ;) and I will mail them to you~ So far my cookies have been to Alberta Canada, NYC, and Atlanta. I'd send some to Japan and India, but I'm not sure how fresh they would be upon arrival :)
Foam- Me too! And I'm going to skip dinner tonight and go for a walk instead. Ugh...I'm so out of shape :(
Bone- Yes...the fat little baby is me! (lord, eating butter for goodness sake!) My kids looked much the same (but I never let them eat a stick of butter!)-ugh...it all seems like such a long time ago~ :D
