She doesn't have a tent...she has a DOG CAGE! aw: aw:

Sorry for the late posts, but some of these are just TOO good!!

"Brachetto Sparkling Wine" that is quite decent for $5.99 a bottle. Who has a Trader Joe's that is willing to make the sacrifice and test this claim? We don't have one yet. Jim? Stacey?

We have one "by" us...ok, not by us, but in the same strip as the dance store I'll be going to on Thursday. I'll try to remember to pick some up.

And you want me to buy wine from the place that sells "two buck chuck??"

 

[tinksdad]

Time to go....heading out to the gym with Jordan. There goes the rest of my day. Yet another thing no one mentioned about having kids....the running.

Kids are a lot like puppies and kittens, don't you think? They're cute when they're little.

Are you running with Jordan?? Good job!! Getting in shape for that upcoming cruise I see

 

[tinksdad]

I wish Kevin would come home so we could hijack this thread back to something fun like diving. All the talk about kids, 504 plans, homework, motiviation, is depressing me.

I guess the good part is knowing that there are others having the same issues.

Now back to something fun, like a new dive light or maybe an Ipod Mini....

Lets do it!!

Have you and Red firmed up the December Key Largo dive plans yet?

I'm thinking maybe we could get a better deal with all the same operator. But, then again, it might be nice to try out new charters and different locations as long as it's not the huge cattle boat type.

Gotta catch up Jim - the new thing is the iPod Nano... 2 or 4 gig flash memory with a color screen, really cool... and really small.

We were sitting next to a young guy in the airport on Friday with one of those. He really liked it, it does the slide shows and music. He had the smaller 2G version. I think I want the larger 60G Ipod so I can store digital pictures taken on trips without taking the laptop! (Christmas gift alert!!!)

 

[tinksdad]

You know you would think it would be something that simple. It was definately on a cruise ship but as we were sailing away armed guards with machine guns took over the ship. I got separated from Mark and never saw him again. It was very strange and I woke up shaking. Not your usual "I missed the ship" nightmare. I think this is one cruise I would have been happy missing!

Sounds like a Celebrity cruise......

 

[tinksdad]

Kevin & Alicia will be back this afternoon, sounds like they had a great time. Kevin's new name, feel free to use it: Pop-pop.

You! My darling are just EVIL!!

 

[tinksdad]

Mary....that IS awful! Yikes! Did you just reach over and touch Mark...to be certain he was there??

My "worst" cruise dream is that I am in the stateroom unpacking. The whole time. By the time I finished unpacking, the cruise was over and I missed all the fun.
I'm telling you...Freud....he woulda loved me!!

Talking to a lady in the boarding line at the airport this afternoon. Got to talking about cruises. She mentioned that the had been on one of the older Princess cruises to the Eastern US and she had been sick with high seas. When to the bathroom and the door knob fell off! She was stuck in the teeny-weeny bathroom for a couple of hours!! Not fun!!

 

[tinksdad]

By now, time has past and I am repast with enjoyable tastes. A piece of Flourless Chocolate Cake with Irish Whiskey Sauce was procured for the trip back to the Champagne Booth for another Fairy Tale, before the fireworks started.

Ah, food….glorious food…. Tomorrow is another day.

Sounds wonderful!! We MISS IT!!
Next time try the chocolate cake with Banfi!! YUMMY!!

 

[tinksdad]

Well Heck!! I almost filled a whole page with all the catch up for the weekend. Just to TOP it off with a TOP!!

 

[justmestace]

Just telling Kevin, I was reading a thread on the Restaurant board, something like "3 best things to try at Food & Wine". The discussion turned to Banfi, as discussions will, and someone posted that Trader Joe's has a Banfi knockoff called "Brachetto Sparkling Wine" that is quite decent for $5.99 a bottle. Who has a Trader Joe's that is willing to make the sacrifice and test this claim? We don't have one yet. Jim? Stacey?

I DO I DO ME ME ME ME!!!! I am willing to make this great sacrifice for my friends.

 

[justmestace]

Welcome home, Pop-Pop!!!

 

[tinksdad]

Welcome home, Pop-Pop!!!

Thanks! I think.......

 

[dzneprincess]

Hey POP POP congrats on that TOP and welcome home!

 

[justmestace]

Thanks! I think.......

Pictures?? Got any pictures??

 

[dzneprincess]

I DO I DO ME ME ME ME!!!! I am willing to make this great sacrifice for my friends.

If I were able to make the purchase, I too would throw myself on the sword and take one for the team on this one! But alas I do not have this store.

 

[dzneprincess]

Pictures?? Got any pictures??

yeah...huhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuh??????????????

 

[justmestace]

Congratulations KT and Nick

 

[dzneprincess]

OK, so far I have only received one person who would be interestes in a swap/exchange. Is anyone else interested in doing this? I think it could be fun??
