If I could figure how to handle such a long flight, I would Patsy. I just can't sit still long enough, the trip to Orlando is bad enough.

Heidi, I think it is time for you to take a trip to somewhere where it is warm like Hawaii .

Forget the snow, it was 12* here this morning. Then there were the 30mph winds. I think they said -8 with wind chill.

So not something that helped me get out of bed this morning. And now they say there is snow coming.

How is it that is was 60* on Saturday and todays HIGH was 19*?

Where oh where is Springtime?

 

[mommytotwo]

I don't like long plane rides either, especially when I have to worry about my kids crying and keeping them occupied .
I hope that everyone has alot of nice weather by the time that Easter is here. I am so ready to have our Easter get together and see the smile on my daughters face.

all the above information is on the USPS website.

Thanks for the tip!

James got his first ticket Sunday on his way back to school.

On a lighter side, Carol has orientation this Sunday for her first job! Where has the time gone?

What type of job is Carol going for?
I remember when I had gotten my first ticket. I was so scared and even now I get parinoid with the police and seeing that blue light.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Yup we had that wind too, I thought for sure we were going to wake up in OZ.

It's called Bahama Bucks. They make shaved ice snowcones, smoothies and fruit cups. It's a good place for a first job. And they're closed on Sunday. My favorite snowcone is blue raspberry. It turns my lips and tongue blue!

Now you know what it's like to live here.

That sounds like a fun job to have . Hope she enjoys it.

Say that today was the first day of Spring. The weather outside is 80 degrees and there is a nice breeze. Everyone in your family wants to go out to enjoy a day in the park, so you decide that you will have a picnic. What food and drinks would you bring with you? Would you do any other activities while you are there-(bike riding, kite flying....)?

 

[Pooh67_68]

Patsy, its hard to pretend when we got an inch of snow last night and it is still snowing this morning, but OK.


I would need a cooler instead of a basket.

Chicken Salad w/a nice thick white bread (Paula Dean recipe)
Macaroni Salad
Deviled Eggs
Iced Tea (John would want soda)
Cupcakes
I would put the chicken in a container and make the sandwiches once we got there.

I would love to give kite flying a try, its something I have never done. But other then that no, all we would do is enjoy the meal and then go for a walk.

I'll have what she's having! Sounds good. Actually, I AM having chicken salad on a thick bread today for lunch, and it will be about 74 degrees today. I just finished putting the sandwich together. And on my picnic I'd add some relaxing bike riding to the mix.

Although today I'll be inside testing -- NRT's at school. Last week were the dreaded FCAT tests. No fresh air for me until late afternoon.

 

[Pooh67_68]

Good luck with the testing.

 

[mommytotwo]

I would make musubis-rice balls. My husband is not a big sandwich person, and I would make chicken and other sides to take along. And for dessert brownies, and some cut fresh fruit.

If the day was nice we would fly a kite, if not then we would play some board games.

The chicken salad sounds yummy-do you have the recipe for it?

I make a very easy chicken salad. A few of my friends and I used to celebrate each other's birthdays at this tea house for lunch. We all loved it there, and we usually always ordered the same thing -- chicken salad on a croissant. They also had an "afternoon tea" meal, which consisted of a three tiered silver server, one level filled with mini sandwiches -- cucumber, chicken salad, lobster salad. The middle level had scones and cream, and the top plate had the mini desserts. How I miss that place since it closed!

Anyhow, I tried to copy what they made. I sprinkle white meat chicken breasts (no skin or bones) with fresh ground pepper and bake them in a glass dish with some water at the bottom and cover it in foil. This sounds odd, but the chicken comes out so moist. Then I cut it up very small, mix in a handful of slivered almonds, 1 minced up slice of spanish onion (only 1 slice of a med. onion) and mayonnaise to taste. Mix it all together and refrigerate. It comes out practically identical to my tea house version!

Thank you for the recipe.
I will have to try it sometime.
Before there was this one resturant that used to have these great ham and cream cheese tea sandwiches-yum I miss those.

Hmm, a picnic sounds so nice! If we were going on a picnic, we would just grab stuff that we had, no preparation at all. We'd take bread, lunchmeat and condiments. A bag or two of chips and what cookies we had on hand. And pickles! Must not forget the pickles!

Then for activities, we'd take a walk, fly a kite or throw a ball or frisbee. Or maybe we'd just sit and enjoy the sunshine.
