Thanks Donna! I love tonga toast! I think I'll have a banana to go with mine!

Oh thank you Donna, your so sweet! By the way, what do you mean by "frost"?

ETA: Thank you Donna!

 

[DonnaLeah]

Oh thank you Donna, your so sweet! By the way, what do you mean by "frost"?

ETA: Thank you Donna!

I think everyone is calling the bouncing Mickey, getting "frosted". Like the bouncing Halloween Mickey was getting "booed".
You're very welcome!!!

Good Morning Everyone!

Ashley, Rachel Ray cooked turkey breasts last year and this year. They sounded pretty good. Here's the links http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_34926,00.html?rsrc=search and http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_29088,00.html?rsrc=search I went to foodtv.com and did a search for Rachel Ray Thanksgiving. It brings up those recipes, plus her sides. (I don't cook, Mike does, so I don't know how easy these are). Good Luck!


I am so tired. We went to Walmart last night to get some last minute things. I hate that place. I still can't find a head cleaner for my camcorder. I have looked everywhere. I did finish most of the packing. I think I need to pack another suitcase (Mike and I each have three ) We are supposed to pick up our rental car this evening and then we leave tomorrow!

Good morning everyone!

Hope all is well with you!

Lizziesmom- glad your first day went well. That first day is always the hardest.

Lesa- Hope you're not too sore today from your fall! I had a beagle growing up, great dog!

Lesa & Linzybrooke and anyone else- should we try and set a day for the the cookie recipe exchange? Do we want to do it online or through snail mail? I'm always up for good new recipe's. Just let me know.

Pozey-- That is a lot of leaves!

Donna- thanks so much for breakfast. Can I be frosted ?

Well, Gotta get the kiddo fed and off to school, then work for me. Have a great day!

0h-- for those who watch Heroes00 they saved the cheerleader

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

Good Morning!

Thanks for the Tonga toast Donna!

Lyzziesmom- I'm glad you had a good first day of work!

Ashley- The nerve of Jeremiah's aunt! I'm glad his grandpa made it back safely.

Amber- Have fun!

 

[DznyFan]

Good morning, all!

We counted and we filled 125 bags (55 gallon size) over the course of a week or so.

Thats a LOT of leaves!

Ashley - I can't believe his aunt went thru your cabinets and everything. That's just so completely rude and inappropriate. And to have his grandfather drive the uhaul back?

Linda - YAY for Palo reservations!! I really love Palo. Now you're cruising the Wonder this time, right?? Oh, I'm really yearning to be back on that ship. I have a feeling once we're empty-nesters in a few more years, I'm going to spend a lot of time on that boat. Depending, of course, on how much scholarship money the darling child can get.....

Lyzziesmom - It was good to hear that your first day at the new job went well, not so good to hear that your back was screaming at the end of the day.

Oh, Lesa - your ladder incident sounds like something I would do! thankfully you're OK, and only suffered a little painted Grace. She wanted to get in the tub with you so she could clean up!

YM -have a safe trip!


Mmmm.... Godiva Chocolate Cheescake = free valet parking? Where do I go??? How do I get there???

I concur with Lyzziesmom and Ashley - I am SO sick of "TomKat" and also that whinebag Anna Nicole Smith.

Amber - have a wonderful trip!!

Later, everyone!

Hi guys----

Trying to catch up but have a feeling I don't have enough time this morning.

My doctors appointment didn't go very well yesterday---but I already knew it wouldn't, so I'm not suprised. We are still waiting for approval for the new treatments. Hopefully---with fingers and toes crossed---we will know something by next week. I begged and pleaded with her not to raise prednisone anymore because I already feel like Violet in The Chocolate Factory----ready to be sent to the juicer. That's sounds gross, I know, sorry. Anyway, I'm waiting, I'm waiting-----sung to the tune of SW's "I'm Wishing".



Lyzziesmom----I was thinking of you yesterday alot wondering how your first day went. Glad to hear it was good. I'm sure you'll have that office in tip-top shape soon. And now, thanks to you and Donna, I must go to Applebees and get some bricky chicken. Hope your back feels better today. Take it easy when you're at home. I know, easier said than done.



Donna----thanks so much for the Italian pastries yesterday. Brought back lots of memories. I could go right now and get some, but I won't allow myself. I love them though----which not many people do because of their blandness and flavorings (anise, etc.)-------whhoooo, am I on a ramble, or what??
Thanks too, for the Tonga Toast-----I had to take a second look, though-----the one piece that is sitting on it's side looks like a piece of salmon. I thought to myself-----with a perplexed look----oh, for sure Donna is not serving salmon this morning----Lyzziesmom will have to get a new keyboard. ick.



Lesa-----please be careful, my dear!!!!!! Those stepladders ----ugh----nuff said.


Who's serving up Godiva Cheesecake???? My absolute favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


LINDA!!!!!!! That's it!!!!! That's it!!!!!

That's the third story!!!!! Soup, fritters and Godiva!!!!
I think?? ------if not, add that to the list.


Amber-----have a WONDERFUL TRIP!!!!!!!!!!! Be safe and have a great Thanksgiving in WDW!!!!!!!!!
And happy belated b-day to Mike.


Ash----good to hear everyone got home safely and that grandpa could have a night off. He sounds like my grandpa---doesn't know the meaning of retirement.
I must agree with Lyzziesmom and the rest-----Auntie Poo has a lot of you know whats.
Good luck with the turkey. I would look online or a cookbook----it's too detailed, I think, to try to explain here. It's not hard, though, just detailed. Oh, you know what works well and is really simple-----one of those cooking bags----a friend of mine just does a turkey breast and she uses one of those and it always comes out really good. They should have instructions on the box too. Just get a roasting pan, rinse the turkey, pat dry. You can rub it with a little melted butter and season with a little salt and pepper. Some people add garlic, etc., but I don't----personal taste. Sprinkle the inside of the bag with a little flour, add the meat, put in the roasting pan and follow the cooking time on the bag box. Just a suggestion, but they do work nicely.

YM----have a great visit with your brother and drive safely!!!! Talk to you soon.


Lin----take 'er easy cluck, cluck!!! And watch out for those zombies!!!!



To anyone I have missed-----A BIG HELLO!!!!!!!

I must go do some laundry and make some phone calls.

Have a good day.

Morning everyone!!

DznyFan - Colton's schoold did not go to the High School yesterday. So, he didn't get to see Erin's performance. I guess the permission slip I signed for him the other day is for next Monday and Tuesday. The 5th graders are going to the High School to practice for their play.

Also......unfortunately, I will NOT get to see his play. A MAJOR scheduling conflict.....Next Tuesday just happens to be the day of both Colton's play and the Winter Swim Meet Championships. I have to take Chase to the Swim Meet. DW is going to take Colton to the Play. We are going to have our neighbor's daughter watch Courtney, so that DW can videotape Colton's play for me. I'm very disappointed that I won't get to see it live.

 

[Tinkerbell_Girl]

Ashley I saw this thread on the community board and thought of you-
http://www.disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1282143

Pozey- That's too bad you won't be able to see Colton's play.

2X- I hope you get the approval for your treatments.

 

[lindakmonty]

Lesa awww... that sounds like something that would happen to me too! At least Gracie doesn't mind baths Hope you feel better today. I think sometimes its the embarassment that hurts me worse ... I have to do the jump up and look...ok..who saw that

Donna...ahhh thanks for the Tonga Toast...ok, so when are the plans for Kona breakfast? I've never been there yet. Sounds very tasty!!! Can you please refresh my memory of our itinerary for Feb...

Dznyfan..yes we're going on the Wonder for the first time I'm so excited...this is my 5th Disney cruise and only the 2nd time to go to Palo Mike and I went the last time and we loved it! This time its the dinner AND the brunch after I saw the pix of all the king crab legs all stacked up all cut in 1/2 bring it on!!! I'm sure Erin will get some great scholarships and you'll get to go more often !!! The only bad thing was I was looking at the on shore excursions and we can't do the dolphin swim Kenny won't be 6 until the 19th...we'll be a few weeks early so we'll have to settle for the encounter ... or wait til next year I'll have to talk to Mike about that one. I know Kenny would still love the encounter...and he really can't swim yet so it would just be us adults swimming anyway... decisions decisions...

2x Soup, fritter, AND Godiva...GOT IT So sorry your treatment didn't go well yesterday lots of hugs, prayers and pixy dust for you. Hopefully you'll hear a positive response from the insurance soon!
Mike meets w/the back surgeon 12/12 we'll see how that goes.

Pozey... you're superdad...what happened to those super powers that enabled you to be in two places at the same time??? j/k... glad your DW can at least go and tape it. That is one thing that makes it very easy w/only one child. Just think...when Courtney get a little bigger... you'll be going three directions..that makes me tired thinking about it. Good luck Colton and Chase.

ym... be careful and have a great visit w/the family!!

Amber and Angela... have lots of fun for us!!! be careful and play your hearts out

note to self...don't forget disney dollars for Kennys stocking

Yesterday went fine when Jeremiah's Aunt and Grandfather came. They got here unexpectedly early and I was still sleeping. They had driven most of the night. Then his Aunt proceeded to go through my entire house, opening cabinets, opening the washing machine, going through my outside storage. When I got up though, she put on the fakest smile I've ever seen in my life and all was well. They were outside most of the time trying to put the Explorer on the trailer, and then I almost had a heartattack when I found out his Grandfather is driving that huge UHAUL back to Florida. If they get in in time he is even going to work at the gas station tonight from 9-8am. I feel really bad for him.

I cannot even fathom why she would need to be going through your entire house!! Some nerve!! At least the visit was short.

 

[pozey]

The first day of work went well. They are a bit disorganized and I could already feel my gears turning with ways to streamline things. My new boss works in the IL office and she is in town today & tomorrow to help me get settled, she took me to lunch at Applebee's today. I had the Crispy Brick Chicken, I heard it was good and it was! I didn't realize though that it would be so much, I thought it was just a chicken breast. The office is bigger than I originally thought, but everyone seems nice so far. Even though I get off at 4:30, it still seemed like a long day and my back is screaming.

Glad to hear that your first day at your new job went well!

I had to throw my dinner away... I made a quick pasta dish and my tap water is so musty-tasting that it was really bad. Usually cooking will get the bad taste out but I don't know why it didn't this time. I'm going to have to get a filter to put on the tap, it's really gross!! I have kind of lost my appetite now.

Sorry to hear about your dinner...

Well, I just now realized I forgot to bring my lunch to work.....again. We went to Ted's (where else) this weekend and I have leftovers. Then on Sunday, I made chicken spaghetti. And there is a bunch left over. And stupid me.....I keep forgetting to bring something.

 

[MI mom of 3]

Quick hello...I forgot to bring my lunch to work today so I ran home. I had left over turkey from the weekend.

Lesa, You take good care of Mom, Daddy and Nick. It felt so weird this morning sending him off.

Gotta get back to work. TTFN

 

[DznyFan]

Oh, Linda you're making me want to cruise SO bad....
we haven't done the Palo brunch, but it sounds like a plan for the next cruise. I didn't realize the dolphin swim had a minimum age, but it makes sense. The encounter is OK, but it's pricey - of course you were planning on the swim, so you know.

Pozey - sorry you are going to miss the 5th grade play! You can tell Colton that the backstage area of the old auditorium (it's behind North Intermediate) is one of the most haunted places in Oklahoma! At least that's the fable. I don't know if there's any truth to it or not, but although I can't recall exactly what, Erin has spoke of strange occurences. Too bad neither of your kids got to go, I don't know what all schools went, but elementaries all the way up thru North and South were there. She was a little disappointed - they had a question and answer session after the show, but they didn't let the HS kids go out into the auditorium lobby and mingle with the kids!

Oh Colton will absolutely LOVE that!! Wait till I tell him about it!! And I am sure he is going to go tell all of his classmates!

I wish Colton's school would have gone to the HS yesterday. He would have enjoyed it.
