Ok ... I got #8900. Kikipug you're on your own now. Time for me to leave work & go get the girls. I'm sure y'all will have hit #9000 by the time I reach home at 4:45.

Kiki, I've been wanting to try Bluezoo. But the prices scared me. Let us know how you like it, maybe we'll put it on the splurge list!

Ok, kids want to swim and must do so soon so we can leave for VBS around 5:00....

so I'm forfeiting my chance to snag the next milestone post which should be in about 12 posts or so....

Ok, before reading any posts that have been posted since I left, YES, I know, I'm a moron! 8900 is NOT a milestone post!!

Yes, I homeschool.

And yes, for simple math I need a calculator!

 

[ohiominnie]

Well, if she get her wish Matt, Lisa and I will be in a "foreign" country in a few weeks. We are very much looking forward to spending a week in Michigan

Have your passports ready!

You're flying, right?? Not driving? If you're driving, I smell a post and pre cruise meet!

 

[ohiominnie]

I have lived in the Southwest all my adult life, and Kevin has lived in Albuquerque all his life. So the OU/Michigan thing goes right over our heads.

ACK! No...OSU.....THE Ohio State University.

OU is Ohio University

It definitely wouldn't be an everyday dinner... our anniversary isn't til Oct... so I've got a ways to go... can't think of a better excuse for a pricey dinner between now and then... I was so glad to see that he has a place here now, too... his place in Boston is great. (Food is one of the few things we miss about New England!!)

I'm sure we'd never get to actually eat at his restaurant while he was cooking there, however, I had the opportunity to watch him cook at our convention back in March... he was making my absolute FAVORITE... paella. He is the only person I've found who makes it as good as my grandmother.

I guess I deleted the picture of me with him... this is DH with him...

And THIS from a woman who has Victoria & Alberts at the TOP of her list????

If I offer to pay for it, would that make it more appealing?

I LOVE paella!! So these guys are good, huh??
Sounds like it's a reservation for next trip!!

 

[scuba diver]

Thanks to both of you!!

Looks like there may be Port in my future. So Jim, which Port do you like or drink the most?

I am sitting here looking at a bottle of 20 year old Tawny Porto bottled in 2003 by Sandeman. I got this one in Costa Rica. I'm about ready to open it to make sure it is good so I can decide if I need to pick up another bottle next week.

I like tawny port and Sandeman is just fine with me. I also like Cockburn. Bin 27 is good too. Basically, I never had a tawny port that I did not like.

 

[scuba diver]

I've been waiting for a special occasion to open this 20 year old port and decided that Summer is reason enough. Summer is a special treat and so is this port.

A top with just me and 20 year old port. Now I won't have to share!

 

[mickeymo]

I fixed my earlier post, adding 'little blue lines' for your benefit...

Thanks!!!

Do I just not get the whole wine thing? How was a "bottle of 20 year old Tawny Porto bottled in 2003"????

[dzneprincess]

Good question Ang....

 

[CajunGirl2]

Or does it sit in a cask (or whatever you call it) for 20 years then it's bottled?

[CajunGirl2]

Good question Ang....

Maybe I should just sign my siggie that way ... that's what all of my friends call me.

 

[CajunGirl2]

Looks like scuba is gone. Must be drinking his port. Guess I won't get my answer until tomorrow. As for me, I had a Mike Hard Raspberry tonight. Almost time to see about putting the girls to bed. DH rented Spanglish last weekend & we haven't gotten around to watching it yet. Guess we'll be watching a movie tonight.

Overload, overload, overload. To many questions at one time. Remember, we are drinking wine here and need the questions to be simple.

If there were two trains, one come ing for Seattle, one from Brunswick, Ny, and the one is going 15mph and the other 25mph and they both have delays of 1 hour.........

 

[MarkRG]

Ouch! That hurt!

MMMMMMMMMMOOOOMMMMMM, Jim is poking me with a stick!!!

(figures the little smilies being mean to one another are colored "maize and blue.") !!

Maybe you can tell me what these two are doing then....

 

[dzneprincess]

OUCH I just took a major tumble!! I got tangled up in some clothes that my son left on the floor, and took a very HARD dive...landed a crashing blow on my left knee and now I have a knot in the spot along with some throbbing.....
