Just heard on CNN Headline News - St Croix had A LOT of damage thanks to Omar - millions of $.

Hope they can get things back into some shape before those cruises next year.

I wonder if we could get Mimi's to send a case of muffins to the ship? Hmmmm.....maybe I'll have lunch at Mimi's today and choke down another pumpkin spice muffin!

Love love love those muffins!

WHEN WILL WE GET TO SEE TORTOLA EXCURSIONS....I'm in a planning mode today.

Probably shopping! Have to get sister Dianne on the DCL sit to have a look around, but my guess is shopping! Expect Peg and Paul will haul their spouses to the beach for snorkel/scuba/jet ski adventures.

.
See you later Marilyn


.....somebody make me hit the show and go do my errands

DH -snorkeling, now THAT will be interesting. I guess I must force the man to learn to swim!!!! Paul and I will be talking about scuba in Tortola... not sure about St. Thomas yet.

And now.....fully groomed and dressed!

Must check in with sister to see if she wants to 'do lunch' and them....

Sister was cleaning the water scum from the shower and steam cleaning another spot on the carpet... a LOT OCD... also cleaned the toaster oven but now wishing I was with sister having lunch all this talk of chocolate and muffins has me hungry!

No pumpkin pie (I know, it's an American thing), no pumpkin soup?
Actually, I'm not really a pumpkin pie fan, but those spice muffins..
BTW, I didn't have one.

I've only eatten Pumpkin seeds.. Dry Roasted & Salted.. Yummy..

Pumpkin seeds always remind my of my gandfather and my dad. Grampy had this little mom and pop store by his house and he would walk us over there for a 'treat', we always got pumpkin seeds. Dad saved the seeds from our Halloween pumpkin(s) and after soaking them in salt water for what seemds like days (but was probably just overnight) he roasted them in the oven...yummy is right!

No, we don't have pumpkins over here. We do have pumpkin seeds though.

How can you have pumpkin seeds and not have pumpkins?

Marilyn ... do I have to have that chat with you about the birds and the bees and the pumpkins?

 

[CustardTart]

They are yummy!!! I had one last October in Orlando somewhere - oh and a delicious Pumpkin Latte in Starbucks!!!

That's a shame - fingers crossed for them...

Maybe it's a regional thing, Marilyn as we have 'em down sarf! When I'm back from WDW, I shall be getting a couple to carve out and put in the window with tealights and my DD always makes a delish pumpkin pie...

Hmmmm. Sainsbury has pumpkins.

 

[iankh]

Do all of us North American have to start sending Marilyn pumpkins?

Sort of a Pumpkins for Britain campaign?

 

[iankh]

(Marilyn's going to hate me, by the time I leave to lead my WW meetings this morning)

 

[CustardTart]

Hmmmm. Sainsbury has pumpkins.

Yes they do! And they're a £1 each in Tesco's...

 

[iankh]

There are 4 things that you will find I am an expert about:

1. Edwardian England
2. England
3. Catholicism
4. Macrame

(well, perhaps not macrame)

Perhaps I am.

I'm going to go practice my received pronunciation now.
