lighttech--good trip report by the way!!

 

[D&DDisney]

Okay...I think I am caught up.

Thanks everyone for the wonderful anniversary wishes. Loved the anniversary smilies. And for the camping suggestions in PA. I'll look into that.

Our anniversary wasn't so happy though. We took the kids w/ us out for a dinner. (Had a great waiter and were able to tip him nicely cause the kids meals were free. Anyway, when we got home I developed a real bad pain in my right side and had to go to the ER late last night. (Poor kids were up w/ us til almost 3am ) Everything turned out okay and they couldn't figure out why I had so much pain. It's better today but I'll have to check in w/ my doctor on Monday. Haven't seen her in a few years so I hope I don't get the lecture.

I am all for a NASCAR event at Disney. That would be great. They sell packages for the Daytona 500 w/ a stay at WDW, ride to Daytona, race tickets and party. Unfortunately though, it is VERY expensive. Hope to do that someday. We've only been to a real NASCAR race at Michigan because the place I used to work got me FREE tickets. That was fun.

Well, I am going to rest up today. No strawberry picking like I had hoped.

I am working on a flat TK pic of myself, but if I don't that camping self that lighttech found will work.

Thanks. Unfortunately, I never got any farther... I keep telling myself "someday."

Well, Happy Anniversary anyway. I'm sorry it didn't turn out as planned, but I'm so glad you are feeling better.

And, really, I'm leaving now... I'm gonna log off and everything... I swear.

I am almost afraid to post this since I am the one messing up the posts.

lighttech-are you trying to take over the smiley job? Geez, if you do, what ever will have to do late at night? Those smileys are great.

Shmu-I really am trying to work on getting a pic to you. It's a work in progress.

D&DDisney-sorry your anniversary didn't end so well. If you decide to head out to Pa for your next vacation, search Lehigh Valley, Pa campgrounds. It's a little over an hour from Philly and about 1 1/2 hours from Hershey. I did a quick search and lots of places came up.

 

[lighttech]

Well I did leave for a while... honest.

Racetrack - Your posts do seem to have a mind of their own. Its confusing me. Although, it doesn't take much these days...

Totally random question: Does anyone else dip their french fries in ranch dressing? I do. We just had a discussion here at work about what everyone likes on their fries. We came up w/ anything from Ranch to ketchup to a Wendy's Frosty.

To add to the confusion... Your light is on in my Buddy list, but off on your posts? Are you there? Helloooooo?

 

[racetrack18kb]

Yes, I'm here but playing hide and seek with you all. Guess you're going to have to search for this post too.

Right now, the dis clock says 3:03 pm but my computer says 4:20 pm.

I like to dip french fries in mustard. I also dip potato chips in mustard too. So does my youngest DD.

 

[Pikester]

Good afternoon everyone! Just wanted to stop by really quick for a check in. I will try to stop by later this evening for responses. One quick one:

DH like to dip his fries in BBQ sauce sometimes; onion rings too!

I just finished frosting my cake for tonight's festivities. I was going to make a marble cake but ended up making Devil's Food with buttercream frosting. How come I always get crumbs in my frosting!

 

[racetrack18kb]

Everyone please disregard this post. I switched some things on my computer and want to see if it fixes my posting problems.

Really, I'm not trying to confuse anyone.

ETA-it's fixed, it's fixed. I hope.

Two tips I've found on the crumb situation...

Try refridgerating the cake before frosting. (At least be VERY certain its all the way cooled, but a few hours in the fridge will make it even more solid.)

Do a very light coating of frosting first... don't worry about full coverage. Let it sit for a little bit and then go back for a top coat. Some crumbs will get into that first coat, but probably won't break thru onto the top.

And, always put a big dollop of icing down and spread in one direction out from the big pile, if you try and go back and forth, your icing on the cake will stick to your icing on your spatula and pull up crumbs.

Hope this helps!!

That sounds good!! I have nevre tried it...

I do like to eat my hot chocolate with a spoon

 

[Shmu]

That's cool!!!

It's going to be fun.

I'm a DVC'r, I thought more of us in this group were too?

I wish I were.

OK - obviously some of us need some motivation... If our fellow TKers don't get their pics in, I think we are just going to have to have you take along representative smilies... Here's a few ideas.

(I've never gone to any of the smiley sites before... I"m very proud. And, of course, no offense intended. )

Bopsmom -

Whgrn -

D&DDisney -

Disney54us -

Racetrack -

KimluvsDisney -

Well, that's all I have time for right now... I'll have to get back to it later.

OMGosh that had me Rolling. Soooo funny.

Oh wait... I found Pikester and the kids at the beginning of summer break!

Shmu-I really am trying to work on getting a pic to you. It's a work in progress.

I'm sure your pic will look great. I can always use the one of you and M&N at Hershey's Park. Just let me know if you want me too or not. I have one of M&N but I can crop it to just have you.

I am working on a flat TK pic of myself, but if I don't that camping self that lighttech found will work.

Keep looking. There is still time.

I like to dip my french fries in BBQ sauce!! Everyone gives me evil looks all the time. Devils foodcake sounds really good!! I've never tried it though.

 

[Disney.Dreamer]

We finally got the dishwasher in and working!! Chinese food for supper was de-li-ci-ous!! There was rice with peas, pork rice with peas, bean sprouts, wontons, egg rolls, chicken balls (they were HUGE so I said: "I have two big balls" there were two on my plate) oh and some veggie mixes. Very yummy.

BUT

My fortune cookie had no fortune

I hope you feel better soon. Tell us what the

says. Has the pain gone away yet? No fever?

I love the one about the Wendy's Frosty. We loved doing that when we were kids. I was just talking to DD about that the other day when a wendy's shake commercial came on-I said, "I hope they don't screw up the shakes they're great to dip your fries into." She looked at me like I had lobsters coming out of my ears. I also like to put vinegar on my fries and dip them in mayo (not a low calorie option)mmmmmmm cake

We finally got the dishwasher in and working!!

Good job.

I avoid doing DIY with DH. I usually have to do it myself. Bless his heart, he can cross-thread a lightbulb.

I always wondered about chicken balls. Not really knowing if you are a or a dreamer, than I am not sure what to say-
I just keep hearing my DM's voice saying, "That's nice dear"

BUT

My fortune cookie had no fortune :

no news is good news.


Wanted to share:
This smiley was funny-reminds me of DD

Oh My!! I'm sorry but that's hilarious. Sorry about the fortune cookie though. They're my favorite part.

My parents just looked at me, my dad started laughing.

 

[racetrack18kb]

I would have been laughing too. Except I would have been the one in my family to say something like that.

Mind if I ask you a question? You don't have to answer if you don't want to or anything. Did you ever post on this thread before? Maybe last month or so?
