Something About Nothing ... #12

[schumigirl]

Carole...it's supposed to be 97 tomorrow and 98 on Thursday. Just remember what happened last HHN when we met that night with the temps.

Oh my lord that was hotter than hades that night! But so much fun!

Even so, I'm jealous........up until an hour ago I had the heating on.........now, it's like a different country.......but still cool.

I need some decent summer weather............

 

[Monykalyn]

Ah Mac hope the next test goes better for you! and 11 days no coffee??
Dd's friend who is like another daughter arrived from Florida last evening. DD won't be home til Friday. DS was so excited to see friend-it was cute.
Last night the chicks all went to sleep pretty well (Sunday night i had to hold the brat baby as she wouldn't stop crying when I put her in coop-even though she had wormed her way up to big girls the previous night!). Roof on new coop, frame assembled, need to build coop box and nesting boxes now.

Very warm here too-80 degrees, humidity up this am as rain coming in next couple days, then back to 80's/sun for weekend.
Beef roast in crockpot for dinner-potatoes and carrots tossed in too. Love not having to "make" dinner when I get home!

Happy (*achoo) Tuesday! Allergies are killing me right now!

This past weekend was heavenly...upper 70s and a nice breeze...all weekend. I don't know if I turned on the heat this past winter. You'll have decent summer weather during HHN again...I guarantee it.

That sounds so nice........gosh no heat on in winter........we can only dream of that!

Oh I'm sure it will be lovely......you know me, hotter the better......and I'd like to request no rain please........

Thinking of us getting drenched waiting together for the Halloween house couple of years ago........we must have been mad! We were all soaked...........



Monyk, hope the allergies ease up........its bad over here too. Experts say it'll be one of the worst years for allergy sufferers...........I love my crockpot too! Wouldn't be without it..........

 

[Chuckers]

Not counting Chuckers? LOL When vacation nears time slows down.

Hope you have a great time!

This one is extra special as it's my first stay at Universal.

Big strange yellow thing has appeared in the sky again........

Skies are blue again too...........bit different from the dull grey we have had recently..........

Got some baking due out soon..........all the talk of clotted cream on the other threads made me want scones......so I've made some cherry scones and a ginger cake.........just need to go buy clotted cream!

Can you make a scone with chocolate? No fruit or anything.. fruit is gross. Chocolate is awesome. Cinnamon isn't bad either... but chocolate rocks.

I very rarely eat chocolate, don't really like it much.

Scones need fruit, especially cherries........lush! But I do like fruit and don't find it gross.

I do make chocolate cakes and cookies for husband and son who are both chocoholics........I make a mean flourless chocolate cake! Rich and gooey......not for me though........


Must go and start preparing dinner.......been sat chatting to DH since he's come home.......making cola chicken with Chinese noodles........ be about another hour and a half or so till we eat though........having some grapes to keep me going till then.....

I've tried flourless chocolate cake.. It feel it's like eating mud. Yuck. Cinnamon scones don't need fruit! I guess I won't put in a request for you to bring me real scones in September then...

 

[schumigirl]

Cinnamon scones aren't a thing over here.

Though I have no English blood in my as far as I know, I love tea and scones. Strawberry or cherry with a scone is my favorite. Long ago, took my mum to Harrods, for tea service. Enjoyed every part of it. I actually like clotted cream too.

Ah, with that, my lunch was not as good as a warm scone with fruit, and a nice cup of English tea.

Sun is bright, and sky is clearing, but that's only dropping the temperature and the wind is just cool enough, I can't believe I'm wearing a heavier jacket today. May? Ah, summer is coming. I hope.

And yay! Chuckers doing the dark side. Have an awesome time in the parks. Like to see some pictures, and food porn is appreciated as well.

I found out too smoky mts and Internet tick me off

No power that long would have me screaming
I scream already when it rains and no dish signals

Can't go wrong with Mexican food
Hope it is good in Kentucky
I stick with BBQ when there

I love it when all my kids drop on here

The Mexican was very good! Back to work today. 170 orders waiting and a lawn that needs mowed. The kitties are very happy that we're home.

Had a couple of different careers when I worked

Did teach high school for 15 years
Now I know how bad they felt when they failed a test

Warm day here in mid 80's
Open up the windows as getting a nice breeze

If temps rise much more, ac time
Rest of week will be hot which I enjoy

Living in the north most of my life makes me thrilled to have 79 at Christmas time

Only months were we are cold was late January and most of February

 

[Robo56]

And Will and Grace too.......two

If Jack and Karen are back on the show I'am watching. They were my favorites on the show

You should try one when you come here, they're really good

 

[Robo56]

For Mac

Are they rebooting it with the same actors?

 

[Chuckers]

Are they rebooting it with the same actors?

Yes, same cast.

 

[schumigirl]

Are they rebooting it with the same actors?

They are........can't wait to watch it.



Robo.......Jack and Karen were my favourites too.......my friends say I have a few things in common with Karen's character......cannot imagine what they are...........

We met Eric McCormack in 2007 in MK. He wished me a happy birthday and did an excellent Scottish accent .......it was a brief conversation but nice, one I won't forget.

Thanks, I know I will have a blast. I have never been the type to take pictures of my food... but I may do that for the boards I think I'll probably do some character pictures because they're characters I don't see often.

 

[pcstang]

Great! That show was hilarious! When does it come back on? Guess I'll head over to google. Can't stand all this bs reality junk these days. Big Bang is about all I watch.
ETA I see it says fall for 12 episodes
