10/24/2009 Bash on the Boat Cruise (I'm with BOB) Chapter #10

[EPCOT_VA]

Sounds good to me. Shelley and Woody should come too. They are just south of there about an hour. Name the time and place.

Most definitely!! We would love to meet up before the cruise!

Great!

Is there a good restaurant that everybody would like in Fredericksburg? (Maybe Claim Jumper or Outback Steak House?)

Beth and I are both off the last weekend in September. (That doesn't happen often with our schedules.) How about Friday September 26th or Saturday September 27th?

Paige (Disgrits) - Are you guys up for a VA Dismeet?

We should start a list...

To be honest Cass, I preferred the one at Epcot. Perhaps it was because there weren't enough participants. Glad you are enjoying the blog.

I've been enjoying your blog too, Heather

I booked the Segway tour in EPCOT for Al for Dec., he love the World Showcase area so I thought he might like it better than the Ft. Wilderness one.

Good morning/afternoon all....

My baby started school yesterday!

In his classroom:

Nice pictures, Jen! Thomas sure is growing up!

Jen, how is your mom doing?

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

No back to school pictures of my kids although 3 of them are taking classes again this year. But, here's a picture of the soon-to-be bride and groom from a wedding they went to last weekend.

Nancy, what a lovely picture of the happy couple

Nice picture of Olivia Glad she did OK with her start of high school

 

[Cheryl N. WI]

Depending on how long she's there, we might go out and visit. We are definitely having "cruise withdrawal" symptoms right now!

We too are having "cruise withdrawal" symptoms Next Oct. still seems so far off. Those that go visit the Magic in dry dock please take lots of pictures of her!

Nancy,

When we were at the US Open (seeing dreamy Roger Federer ) in NYC we were sitting next to a guy from Hattiesburg, Mississippi. He works with Deanna Favre's sister. He got her on the phone when he found out we were Packer fans. She told him to tell us that we DON'T know the whole story, that Brett never wanted to leave Green Bay, and that Ted Thompson has been trying to get rid of Brett since Thompson got to Green Bay. Now, this is entirely her opinion and her side of the story. I know that Packer fans will never know what really happened. It is just really, really sad!

Hi Victoria good to see you here!!

We too have been very sad about the whole Favre situation We now not only watch the Packers but the Jets too. It is very strange to see the Favre Jets jerseys in stores.

Nice pictures, Jen! Thomas sure is growing up!

Jen, how is your mom doing?

She's doing ok. She can't put any weight on her one foot at all, so she's using a walker and hopping around on one foot. She went home Wendesday night, and a friend is staying with her now. It's going to take a long time though.

Glad to hear that she's home and hopefully she's not in too much pain

Sure, we're up for it! Not sure how many of our children, if any, will be able to make it. Unlike their parents, they have a social life.

Some chuckles from reading back....

"I would take 10 men over 2 women anyday!! "

"I'll keep my constructive criticism to a minimum to show my gratitude"

"Maybe we crashed their servers"

"Same with technology - I have absolutely no interest in anything - if its new and in a box then Neil has to get it working then just show me where the "on" button is"

"Just read Becky's as well. LOL at AFEG and Sessions.....Take no prisoners, Big Daddy!"

"I get a bit carried away when I have a camera in my hand"

I was going to make comments but decided against it......

Hmmm, one of those sounds vaguely familiar although when I read it again, it seems my Schnoogums is taking it out of context.

I would love to be able to say that I none of those quotes are from me, but I think everyone knows I'd be lying..........

Mike and Robin - congrats on the new Baby Dawg

Good morning/afternoon all....

My baby started school yesterday!

In his classroom:

Too cute

No back to school pictures of my kids although 3 of them are taking classes again this year. But, here's a picture of the soon-to-be bride and groom from a wedding they went to last weekend.

She is soooooooooo georgous.

Hiya Karen,
We are on the same plane on the saturday Mini meet on the plane. That will help pass the time, we will have to get seats together.

The pound is falling now against the dollar

Absolutey - mini meet on the plane

Olivia looks lovely in her new uniform.

I know the dollar rate is dreadfu l now. Wish I'd bought loads when it was $2 to the £ Mind you, the one time we went we were getting about 1.40

From Wet Windy England.
Not looking to good for Legoland Karen - hope it gets better.

The first day was dry and we actually saw the sun for a while. Today has bucketed down but we'd down every ride at least twice so we left early and missed the traffic.

Are you a 'Martha' (Stewart) or a 'Mother Goose' ?​

Martha: Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of an ice cream cone to prevent ice cream drips.


MG:Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete's sake! You are probably lying on the couch with your feet up eating it, anyway!

_______________

Martha :To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.


MG: Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix. Keeps in the pantry for up to a year.


_______________
Martha: When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the outside of the cake.


MG: Go to the bakery! Heck, they'll even decorate it for you!

_____________________

Martha: If you accidentally over-salt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant 'fix-me-up.'


MG: If you over-salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too bad. Please recite with me the real woman's motto: 'I made it, you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes!'

___________________-


Martha: Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.


MG: Celery? Never heard of it!

_____________________

Martha:Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield a beautiful glossy finish.


MG: The Mrs. Smith frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the crust, so I don't.

_________________

Martha: Cure for headaches: take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.


MG: Take a lime, mix it with tequila, chill and drink! All your pains go away!

_________________

Martha:If you have a problem opening jars, try using latex dish washing gloves. They give a non-slip grip that makes opening jars easy.


MG: Go ask that very cute neighbor if he can open it for you.

________________________

Martha: Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.


MG : Leftover wine??????????? HELLO!!!!!!!
