5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 5

[scuba diver]

gotta post again and make this an "all girls" page.....

Don't know what that says about Virgil.

 

[scuba diver]

Haven't heard anything about the dinner last night. Kevin is in conferences all day, so I don't call him. Where's Sue?

That explains why Kevin did not post yesterday about OH and her panty. It was to good for him to just let it go unnoticed.

 

[WVMD]

Don't know what that says about Virgil.

My thoughts exactly....

Hi All - Sorry I have absent. Dinner was GREAT! Kevin is as charming, interesting, delightful, etc as I remembered him. Met Stewart or Stuart and Mark also. We had fun, it was codyj aka my sister, Jeanne aka Meme aka Mom, and bil John.

I may not be posting much, work on house and stuff. HH would not come out and do it, drat.




Sue

 

[Dancind]

HI Sue, glad you guys had fun! I can't get him to work on my house either.

There are movies out there that are "just ok" for me, man. Which used to be a 3 star,...but I hesitate giving them 3 stars now b/c I don't want ppl to think I "liked it"....when it was really "just ok"

I wish they had an o.k. - rating too....

Just picked up the 1st season of the Partridge Family oh yeah!!!

Didn't finish 3rd season of ER - couldn't renew it at the library...John thinks I'm crazy, combining my Netflix and Library hold lists...

Sunday is my "new release" night - they release the list of what's being released during the week on DVD - then they get added to the que...Then I periodically check to see if the library has obtained them...

still waiting for 3rd season of 24 at the library - I'm doing the 1st season of Murphy Brown through Netflix right now...I forgot how funny it was...Kids just finished the 3rd season of Gillian's Island - they really got hooked on it...

 

[Dancind]

Wow, slow posting afternoon. Unusual for us. I just got done with running, at least for the next hour. I get to watch the beginning of Survivor! But only the beginning.

Did school pick-up, new pointe shoe pick-up, dinner pick-up, then sat in the studio parking lot for an hour sewing elastic and ribbons on the pointe shoes. New record for me, got it done in an hour, and didn't stab myself once! I usually bleed all over the new shoes. I'll go back at 7:30 for one final pick-up for the night.

I just love it when Kevin is out of town. Of course, I will be getting even next September!!! She will be a couple of months shy of being able to get her provisional permit then (and thus able to drive alone). Otherwise, I'm sure he would just let her use my car!

I know the feeling... between Ray and I, one of us is gone for part of every week until after Thanksgiving... and never together... I go to Sarasota this weekend, then I go to Dallas, then to Tampa, then he goes to Miami, then NH... I guess we'll see each other some time around Christmas!!!

It makes everything so much harder for the one who's left at home with the kids, and so peaceful for the one who's gone...

 

[Hedgie]

Scoopie - I hear you made it ok. Take care of yourself with all those kids.

What did you finally decide for BookAWeen???

 

[ohiominnie]

wow. thought i'd come home to a ton of posts, but it was very quiet in here today....

kids had piano, then had to run errands...bank, dance store, trader joes (nope, they don't have the wine although i was too rushed to ask---didn't see it in the sparkling wine section or the endcaps) then we went to see charlie and the chocolate factory at the dollar theater...that's definitely one we will buy.

out to dinner at flyzoli's and then finally home.....

kids are tucked into bed reading. survivor will have to wait until tomorrow.

i've got about 100 stitches left on the penguin snow globe i'm making for nick (mr. penguin lover---march of the penguins was DEVESTATING for him!)

here's what he'll look like done:

 

[Scoopie]

Made it to Tampa today! WHEW! First Lake Worth, now Tampa. You guys know how to pick some hot places to live!!!!!

No school today or tomorrow. Guess I'll have to wait until Monday to meet the kids. Kelly did mention taking me to the gym with her..........

Still thinking about Book-A-Ween. I still have a few days for that.

No one told me tchrmom has a DOG!!!!! I hear he likes stuffed animals. Good thing Fran put me up high!

Time for Day Two Part 2 of Food and Wine.

My plan for the evening was to try the seafood and red wines….As you will see, I partially completed this task. First to CANADA for the Maple Glazed Salmon with pecans. Another one in the running for best of show. I wanted to save the Inniskillin Ice for later. (Hint – never save until later.).

Then, just to show willing and tried the Sauteed Shrimp with lime and ginger chutney but no florida wine (made that mistake last year. The shrimp was ok. We really need better entrees from Florida.

The Smoked Salmon with Irish Soda bread and Kerrygold Butter from IRELAND came followed by the Peppered Mackerel with Cucumber Salad from SCANDINAVIA. (DH had the chocolate cake from Ireland and the Rice Cream from Scandinavia, and cheese soup from Canada).

The Shrimp Seafood Stew from Singapore was wonderful and the best thus far. I think I paired that with a Shiraz. Sam wanted the Aussie Beef Tenderloin on a skewer and I was ready for desserts. But the Chocolate Macadamia Nut Dream from Australia was (not so good)….The Reisling was quite nice, but I did not lie the dessert tort format. I was expecting a “cake”. That sorta ended my dessert experiments.

So off to Italy where Sam sampled the Sicilian Pepperoni Pizza with Olive Crust and the Placido Pinto Grigio.

Where was I – need you ask – at the CHAMPAGNE Booth for Fairy Tale. The perfect way to end the day….our Anniversary at that....

How adorable! I love penquins as well!

 

[chip&dale&fun]

nighty-night!

Glad Scoopie made it - nice and fine and has cooled off. Maybe he needs one of those snowglobes for his own.

 

[DVCcruise]

Okay, not like it's too early or anything, but we decided to stay at Ron Jon's Resort on Thursday and Friday before the cruise. We stayed at the Radisson last cruise, but wanted to try the resort. We also got a really good deal on a one-bedroom suite. So, can we convince anyone else to stay? We should at least do a meet somewhere on Friday.

 

[Dancind]

Possibly, depends on how far it is from Daytona Beach. We've decided that the night before the cruise, we need to try the place with the rock shrimp that Jim is always talking about. So we need a place to stay up that way. I could check a map, I guess.

That rocks shrimp!!!

Today we go and pick up Lisa from Camp Harmony. This is a camp put on by her school and she has been there all week.

Even Sharon will admit it has been really nice not having to do any running all week. Sharon has been working a little late and then curling up with a book. It's like a little vacation. To bad it ends today.

Guess we will have to continue the mini-vacation at WDW this weekend. We start at All Stars Cafe to watch the MSU vs OS game Saturday afternoon. Followed by dinner with Mike and Joan at the Yachtsman. Spending the night at PO. The kids will have free run of the parks Saturday night while we eat.

Sunday is F&W.

To bad we won't have our Video Ipod to watch TV shows while standing in line for Soaring.
