Since I've been dieting the Redneck Sangria works well.I just use more Sprite than wine.
Have you tried the sprite with vodka? That's good and refreshing too...

Good morning everyone!
WFD - Some of my boy's favorites, a roast cooked medium rare (Becky & Laura's Mom's recipe), smothered potatoes & onions and prosciutto wrapped asparagus. Can't wait to see my son!!![]()
the egplant casserole...my Mom made this and it was excellent.
Kyle just called, their journey has ended. They lost 8-6 and are headed home tomorrow morning. He said he is so tired and ready to come home and y'all know I'm ready for him to come home so all is good. They had a great week and he had a week he'll never forget!![]()
Lord, please don't EVER give me twins.
What a nice Mom...sure he missed you too! Congrats on his win!
I keep thinking of all the experiences he is getting this summer. I don't know if you have seen the thread on sports commitments but every time I read it or post (yes, I have been like a toothache on that one) I have to wonder about those folks who begrudge kids this opportunity. Your boy is the responsible considerate young man in part because of the lessons he learned while playing ball. Anyway, I am so happy for him.
Nan - ITA, sports and being part of a "team" has played such a huge role in shaping Kyle and his teammates into the young men they are today. I haven't seen that thread, do I want to go there?![]()
No. It is back and forth and I know that I need to stay away. It is not nasty or anything but I am finding out that I am not a tolerant person, best that only one of us has that revelation today![]()

Does anyone know if I can pick the peppermint I have growing and freeze it.....I can't use it as quickly as it's growing this year.
The other question is what do I do with all of it?![]()

Nancy, I'm still giggling about your poor hubby! Can't a guy just have some plain old bread & butter?!![]()
Kathy, Tell me more about these diet cocktails y'all are fixing? Red or white wine with diet sprite?
They're on different nap schedules?? Do parents of twins do that intentionally?
Marisa brought me over to visit Jeff's sister whose twins were about 2 months old. OMG! One cried....the other cried. One wet.....the other wet. and then cried. I guess my stamina went down as my age when up because I was exhausted and all I did was hold them
Mom's of twins.....![]()
I don't know about freezing it, although you can freeze basil.
That's what he said
I wish I knew about the buses from All Stars. It would be a shame to miss AP because of the travel time.
We do use the buses and I generally had no problem with the time but my clock is shut off while on vacation. I know that it sure was easy when Dan drove us to WL from the Poly and the bus was way longer IIFC.
Lauren & I were talking about Sangria and she said to try Fresca & Wine (I think). All I had was Diet Sprite so I used that with red wine. I really like it! Now that I'm dieting instead of wine with a splash of Sprite I'm doing Sprite with a splash of white or red wine, whatever I have on hand, there you have Redneck Sangria!![]()
I am doing so much better today!!! No dizziness, no icky feeling. Nada!!!
DH left the A/C going all night long, so I kept really cool. He also got Sunday dinner going in the crockpot. Lucky for all of us that my pot roast recipe is easy and foolproof. It smells so good! I'm starving. Luckily, he keeps bringing me cheese sticks and water. I've got me a good man! I'm living it up today. Don't know what tomorrow will bring once he goes back to work!
Dessert tonight will be raspberry sherbet. Nice and cool!!!
Twins aren't so bad.....when they are your own twins!
It was actually kind of fun, once I got used to them.

So I'm now thinking maybe we should forego AP this time & do something at one of the monorail resorts that night. I know a lot of people will do cabs for resort dining but that's not an option for us (with Bob's WC) either.
