Something About Nothing ... #12

[macraven]

you are up late tonight.....
glad you dropped in

i was about to start talking to myself here.
was going to make it a Dear Diary but then if someone quoted me, my secrets would be out...lol

yea, i had the german food too growing up.
so bland tasting.....
paternal unit came from luxembourg so.....

i never put egg in german potatoe salad, only the american version.
i learned the mayo version during college days.
since my family did not have decent cooks, my college friends showed me the way to cook.
and one of them was a mayo freak so i have lots of recipes using mayo.

be sure to wear 'a flower in your hair' tomorrow for the flower show.
and have fun there with the young one.


i just love the minionions you all post here!

Just have to watch Fallon.
Then, to bed for sure.

End of diary.

For all us Mummy`s in the UK..........

 

[schumigirl]

I know, that's why I missed you guys so much! I really do think the Universal forum has the greatest community of folks. Everyone is so nice. I have been lurking occasionally on the something about nothing thread but I had nothing about much to say!!!

Melinda........don't worry, most of us haven't much to say about anything a lot of the time.......lol......but the thread works well usually...........ramble away.......you'll fit in well..........

If I can continue to get at least 10 hours each of the checks until I leave, the added "pluses" won't detract from my original budget, so there's that. lol Maybe I'll just work 4 hours on Saturday for a little extra souvenir money. Maybe I can finally get a Harry Potter school robe.

Hope so Robbie.........we need pictures if you do get one........

Enjoy flower show Lynne.........love flowers!


All this talk of potato salad...........I have relatives in Germany that used to put plain old "boiled" sausage in the potato salad........that was not nice. Not potato salad or sausage as I knew it.......My mum said my face was a picture when she plopped it on my plate......I was 4 at the time........... Most of her food was lovely though......I was lucky my mum added good flavour to everything.......

I suppose different folk have different variations of many recipes.........

Making some tonight.......but my recipe.....no one else's........nice!! Having bbq pork steaks and salad too........



Got beautiful card from DS this morning for Mothers Day and a big hug.........spoke to my mum earlier before she went to church..........think one of my sisters is taking her out for lunch today........she got the flowers we sent her yesterday........mine are flourishing this morning! Thanked my son again for yesterday.......was such a thoughtful gift.......

Lazy day I think..............well, it is Mothers Day.............

Marcie usually posts here yearly on the date the thread was created.
lately she has been more active and we hear from her about 3x's a year..

Aww, come on, I'm not THAT bad am I? I at least post a pic whenever one of you comes to visit me....so come visit me everyone!!

Heading to MK for a meetup this afternoon and then over to Epcot for ELO concert. Have 2 sets of friends here right now - one spent last night here and then headed to Uni this morning; the other is already at Uni and meeting up with them at DHS on Tuesday. Matt flies in Thursday for the weekend. Lots of fun!

How about a pic of Matt's photogenic corgi for today? And thanks for the rules reminders Mac - you know we love you!!

 

[RAPstar]

Happy Mother's Day, Carole!

I'm always over here lurking but just don't respond that often. Think of me as Roz from the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor...."I'm watching you Wazowski, always watching...!"

And yep, I'm pretty sure the same puppy we talked about - he's enjoying his first winter of snow in Boston!

 

[macraven]

Many thanks Roz......

 

[schumigirl]

Marci.........cute dog!!! Such a happy little face.......

Robbie and Mac........Thank you.........had another lovely little day..........



Very jealous that you get new WD tonight and I have to wait till tomorrow night.........

We had a light snow today..........it was off before we knew it thankfully, but it's cold again.........

Had another phone call today from "the internet" Indian sounding guy telling me he needed my details as he needed to fix my computer that had been compromised......... Do people really fall for that............

 

[ky07]

Hi there St L!

today is going fine for me.
love living where it doesn't snow much
its at 56 now but wil warm up here early next week.
could be time to use the ac then.

you are bound to start getting good warmer weather also.
hope your wife gets to find out when her vacation dates will be so you can book your room.
are you flying or driving this time?




you are going to love what the overtime money will allow you to do on your trip.
that villian thing at dhs is probably one of the treats you are giving yourself.

work more over time for drink money.......

you might be beat now with your long work hours but come vacation time, you can vacation and relax!

Yeah our weather is getting better to and it's suppose to be in the 60 and 70s this week and we have found while it's a long drive but a lot cheaper to just drive .
So the past few trips we just drive down which isn't too bad as long as DW has snacks for the drive

 

[macraven]

St L how long of a drive for you to Orlando?

I'm thinking of flying for my long vacation but doing car trips for the shorter ones

I think it will be scary the first time I drive but will get used to it
The longest drives I have done solo have been 6 hours

Did your wife get her vacation schedule yet?

 

[pcstang]

Happy Mother's Day Schumigirl. Sounds like you have had a great weekend.

Mac- you'll have an easy, boring drive down.

Spring has sprung here. 70's and 80's here. Been working outside getting the yard and pool ready. Gotta detail my truck tomorrow it's been months since I cleaned it.

Sounds like everyone is doing well. Next trip home for us is 30 days out! It's been too long! Definitely will be back in June and sometime sept/ oct. looked at rooms last night...trying to plan our stay to have the chance for the most meetups.

 

[macraven]

Pcstang you have 4 trips in the making

Someday I hope to say me too!

With it being 6 hours for you to drive to Orlando I can see why you are there a lot

 

[RAPstar]

booked the RPR Luau for the second Saturday I'm there! Been a lazy Sunday. Went to go have breakfast late, so ended up at Red Lobster instead lol

 

[macraven]

I like red lobster
Last time I went to one was 1999
Mr Mac is not fond of the place

Robbie
You'll enjoy the luau
I wanna go with!

Well drive on down, Mac. You can crash at CBay with me

Just watched The Mummy on SyFy. Makes me excited to ride the ride for the zillionth time. Imhotep!

Happy Mother's Day!

Ditto!!

And @macraven - I will claim the 'crazy chicken lady' ROFL!

No one here is terribly fond of potato salad- loaded baked potatoes OTOH...

Hope you get that robe @RAPstar! OT has gotta be good for something
