5/27/06 "Il pochi il fiero i blabbermouths" We *will* sail again Part 8

I'm thinking I may still color the Easter eggs before I make them into deviled eggs. Something about that doesn't seem right. It's Easter and we're making DEVILED eggs??
No more Easter bunny here, though.

My kids have ALWAYS called them "Angel Eggies" Awww, the sweetness of innocent children.

Speaking of that....there still IS an Easter bunny here, although I wish there wasn't. Mike and I are thinking of creeping the kids out though and making it sound EVIL that a bunny could get into the house overnight. ("here kids, let's leave the front door unlocked so the big bunny can get in. hope no robbers realize it's open and get here first!!!!!")

Besides, the Easter bunny has failed this year. Didn't get his bunny helpers to make enough Peeps OR Reeses' peanut butter eggs. What's the point in having a basket without those two things? Not a one of them in this town!!

Plus with the kids' braces, MOST of the Easter candy is off limits anyway....and they aren't HUGE fans of chocolate. So guess who is going to eat all of their stuff!!! !!!

Just ran by Costco & saw that they have Banfi for $16.99. I thought that was a great price since I paid $20 before at Kroger.

You've got that entire post on "copy and paste", don't you?

Nope. I do not. Honestly. I made that up SPECIAL for you!!!!

Maybe in with these? I've been looking at the swim dresses lately, instead of my usual tankini.....

Well, those might just float OFF of me. LOL I guess I'll have to go to Land's End, they have those long torso swimsuits. I'm the one with the long torso, Kevin has the long legs. We were hoping our kid would turn out "just right". She doesn't have either problem, so I guess it worked.

Costco? Really? May have to stop by there today and see if all Costcos have it!

Jim or Ray ... another prime rib question. I looked at the standing rib roasts at Costco & saw some small ones. Do I leave the bone on it or have the butcher take it off??? I'm SERIOUSLY considering doing one for Easter. Hopefully it won't be $40 down the drain.

I'm thinking of going with one of these:

besides, it will hide my HORRID farmer's tan that I get every year!!!!


Cool, a U TOP with Stacey and the "swimsuit" girls!

I finally decided on a suit. It's a tankini from Lands End. Now I've got to return the others to Sears... so glad I don't have to ship back to LE.

Oh my, no Peeps? That's a disaster! I was in Target a couple of days ago, too. I do have a green and pink vintage bead necklace I was planning to put in the basket, but the basket will be rejected without Peeps!

or, another of my options:

Hey, with some pearls, that might just be good enough for formal night!!!!!

Yes, Costco. I was quite surprised to see it there. I hope you find it at yours. I was looking for a bottle of wine that I had at dinner the other night ... I only had 2 glasses, not the whole bottle. It was Penfold's Shiraz.

Hmmm....we don't have a Costco, but my parents do. Maybe I'll send them up there for a few bottles.

I'm off to go watch Days of Our Lives then get back to cleaning.

Karen, you've posted those pics before. Are they from an Amish clothing site? LOL If it's one of those "sun-proof" clothing sites, I need to go look. We actually should be wearing something like that, all three of us. Especially the glow in the dark daughter.

But, Angie, right HERE on this thread are the REAL Days of Your Life!!!!

Just browsing Lands End. The top five sellers in the swimsuit category are swim minis (skirts) and swim shorts, all separates. Hey, we'll be right in style!

Actually, they have Outrigger water shorts with UV protection. Sounds perfect for snorkeling, doesn't it?

Are you kidding? The Amish showing that much leg? I don't think so!!!

I found the links off of this site:

I'm having trouble finding clothes for KT that #1 fit her stick figure, and #2 are age appropriate for an 11 yr old. Sorry, but we don't do words across the butt or seductive sayings on t-shirts at the ripe ol' age of 11!!

I thought about getting words on the back of my shorts, but when I realized I could fit the ENTIRE preamble to the US Constitution, I got depressed. For those of you who don't remember it (via Schoolhouse Rock) here it is:



[size=+1]We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

Although, that'd be pretty funny to include the highlighted words on the back of a pair of shorts.

ba-dum-ch...

(there, that tells you, in a nutshell, about MY short term and long term memory!)

I won't forget your name if you don't forget mine...

Funny story... one of the guys who was at the meeting with us in Philly this week has a horrible time remembering names, so his trick is always to ask someone who's name he's forgotten, "How do you spell your name again"... of course, he forgets the bartenders name, asks his question, to which the bartender responds... "I'll spell it backward for you... B...O...B"

I bumped into my friend at Walgreen's the other day, she was getting Easter goodies. They (Walgreen's) had TONS of Peeps.
As the kids got older, we were putting things like C.D.s in their baskets...they aren't candy eaters. But that's too expensive and they are just too old anyway.

Diana, I think that one swimsuit site has "normal" sizes, too.

I found one at Land's End that I really like....but maybe we should all check with eachother before we buy, or we may just end up with matching suits!
