Something About Nothing ... #12

[macraven]

sunday is easter.
i think that means no restaurants will be open in town.

someone remind me to grocery shop friday so i have grub to fix on sunday.


it has poured down rain here since this afternoon.
went out for a late lunch and then to grocery store as it sounded like a good place to get cat food and donuts for us.

did buy a frozen pizza for a late dinner as i'm not in the mood to cook.

Hehe Mac. My DS made frozen pizza and salad for dinner tonight.

And Mac, tomorrow is Friday. The stores were not too crowded today. It feels odd being off today. Usually, on a weekday, the mall is mostly retirees and little kid families. Then I feel odd. However, today, since there is no school for most kids, there was teen packs roaming too. I guess that is why it felt like a Saturday.




Just do not forget it is Friday when you wake up tomorrow Mac.

i'll bookmark this so when i do wake up on friday, it will be grocery store day.

thanks for the giggle.

Easter Weekend is finally here........and the sun is shining and skies are blue!!!! yay.........

No plans though this weekend........going to visit a friend tomorrow as it`s her wedding anniversary.......Sunday is just us this year......quiet for a change. Got a fresh turkey.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend..........

carole i'll trade you 2 frozen birds for a fresh. cooking #1 today and its egg dying day. don't think i'll start my baking until tomorrow. It's just the immediate family, no snooty in-laws - hip, hip hooray!

turned rainy & cold, supposed to rebound, better or will have wet eggs in the yard come Easter.

have a great weekend all

 

[Lynne G]

Against my better judgement, we will, or should I say DD, will be dying eggs. I hope the weather rebounds too, as I want the dying to be outside also. DD only thinks she is crafty. I will hard boil the eggs today. Yay! It is looking like Easter.

Happy Friday homies


For some reason I did remember it was Friday
Lynne drilled it into my head on Thursday and schumi reinforced it today !!!

What a hoot those smilies are today !!!
I'm still laughing over all of them the past 2 days

Going back to store as I forgot to buy eggs

 

[schumigirl]

I have eggs but I'm making flourless chocolate cake with mine.......lol......we don't do the egg thingy.......

Janet, my fresh turkey might be a bit small for your family........we always have a huge one at Christmas and lots of leftovers for freezing usually.......this one isn't as big as normal will last two days if we're lucky........we adore turkey and nibble rest of the day on it........


Just helped DS cut grass after our new gardener couldn't make it.........he's a handyman really but does all the odd jobs.........really nice guy trying hard to start a new business. But illness happens. Sun still shining but it's getting cool and wind is getting up......

Supposed to be horrible all weekend..........

Making Cheese sauce for lasagne tonight now .......and a cup of tea.........

 

[Monykalyn]

Dropping in with a TGIF-off to lunch with a couple friends. Gotta work tomorrow, off Sunday- you guys got me thinking about turkey-may pick one up after lunch today to roast Sunday.

Have TONS of eggs now-but have to steam fresh eggs or they don't peel-will skip the whole dyeing thing and just make deviled eggs

My peach, pear and plum trees all bloomed out and had a hard freeze last night-hoping I still get fruit this year and that dang freeze didn't hurt them...

 

[Lynne G]

The eggs have been boiled, the rain has come, and DD is now getting the colors ready. Man, traffic was much more busy today. Later, time for a nice cup of tea.



Hope Mac and Robo and all you homie coffee drinkers have had your fix this morning. Hang in there, as Mac said, It's FRIDAY! Wahoo and good wishes to ya all!

Love a turkey at Easter too.........lush!!!

Wow your fruit trees bloomed out early!! My pear trees just have buds right now, apple trees don't even look as though they've woke up yet.......and we lost one plum tree last year due to hover flies......but the others survived........but no blooms yet from any of them. Walked through them all today checking.......not sure what I was checking for as I haven't a clue really.........I leave it to the experts!


Made a little appetiser of antipasti........olives, spicy chorizo, Parma ham, little cheese and spicy stuffed little pepperoncini's...........no breads though as its too filling.........lasagne later......maybe a little glass of red.......

Cloud is coming in now..........

Lovely lunch with a couple of old friends- just love that even though long periods of time may go by before we can talk face-to face we pick up like no time has gone by.

Did get that turkey. Sunny (although cool when breeze hit) afternoon on porch with glass(es) of Pinot Grigio -& chickens. Facebook group of "drinking with chickens" has pic of one of our lil monsters today in one of the posts.

Pizza tonight along with (the zillionth) rewatching of Guardians of the Galaxy

I was going to make turkey chilli tonight...but I forgot that we were out of onions oh well guess we'll have sandwiches instead.

All my fruit trees are blooming now. It's strange that some of my apples bloomed before the pears. Hope we don't have anymore freezing weather this year.

Carole...what the check are hover flies? They sound nasty.

I have to work on Easter again this year so no egg hunts for me.

Time for a sandwich and whatever cocktail I can make with peach vodka

Hope everyone has a great weekend and Happy Easter

 

[Lynne G]

No fowls for us, just a spiral ham. Yum.

Chilling on a cooling Friday night.

Oh, Tink, we call Hover Flies, our name for them, Flower Flies, and they look a lot like a wasp. They go after nectar of fruit trees and they and their larvae can be really destructive. I bet you have seen them hovering over a flower.

Hehe, that was my PSA, since Keisha must be keeping busy with the grandkid.

I need more caffeine. Feeling sleepy, but that could be as there is nothing good on the tube.

Enjoy this Friday night.



Hmmmm, Schumi?

I got a call while at work today around 4pm from the medical manager at the clinic I went to yesterday (it's a long story), and she said I needed to call at me earliest convenience and that she really needed to talk to me. Sooooooooo, I'm probably dying.

Needless to say they were closed when I went on my last break at 5

 

[tink1957]

Oh Robbie...I hate it when they do that but hopefully it's just something to do with insurance or something minor stinks that it was at the end of the day so now you probably won't get any sleep wondering ...hang in there.

 

[tinydancer09]

We have basic pics but would like more
Pics of your room, lobby, grounds that can show what all can see when there
I don't have pics of the stationary scooters that many sit on for posing for pics
Different angles of boat dock and signs that show the way
I'll ask Carole if I have overlooked anything

I would like to have pics in all 3 hotel stickies that give everyone a view of what they are missing by not staying there or by not visiting the place and their restaurants and pool

Just work with pbh so your friend will stay your friend....... Lol

Can do! I'll make a list in my phone so I can check it off. You're welcome to Facebook friend me and steal anything I might have uploaded.

This gem is my ex and I at my last stay at Portofino I'll try to get one without the goofy people this trip

Did you remember to grocery shop? If not stop what we're doing and go now!

Also it's raining here. We called all our vacation guests to warn them about a very scary looking storm... Turned out to be nothing much and they probably all think we're nuts. Oh well... We're expected to get over 4 inches this weekend
