pozey, did you make it to see National Treasure2?

Good morning, pozey!!

Hi Donna!

It is very cold here this morning. It snowed a little bit yesterday afternoon/evening, but not too much.

 

[pozey]

pozey, did you make it to see National Treasure2?

Yes, we did.

It was good. I thought the first National Treasure was just a little better, but this one was very good as well.

Colton thought this one was better.

Chase rode the proverbial fence....both were great.

I owe Nathan a good "guy" movie; since he endured seeing "Enchanted" with me. There are a few good movies out right now.
Maybe I'll take him after Christmas, when things have slowed down a little.

btw...my 15 year-old niece loves National Treasure, too, and REALLY wants to see this one.

Good Morning!

Thanks for breakfast Donna and Pozey!

What a weird dream Lyzziesmom!

I sent Lin a text message. I hope they get to meet up with Linda and YM!

Steven wants to see National Treasure, maybe on Christmas Day.

 

[DznyFan]

A good Christmas Eve Eve morning to you!

Thanks so much for the room service and the cinnamon rolls!

Lyzziesmom - that's a strange dream you had! How bad did you get hit by the storm yesterday?

Won't that be great if everybody meets up at MGM? (for them, of course... not us. ) What a wonderful time they must be having.

So National Treasure 2 was good? I keep hearing it is. I slept through half of the first one (I was really sleepy or I didn't feel good, I can't remember) so I haven't even really seen all that one!

Well back to the stove for me - I'm making fudge, going to make those oreo truffle balls that Lesa made, and some chocolate covered cheesecake squares today. Anybody wanna guess how much MORE I'm going to weigh when I get up in the morning?????

catch ya'll later!

 

[lyzziesmom]

The storm yesterday wasn't bad, we got a lot of Frz Drizzle and an inch or two of snow mixed in. The girls wanted to go out and play in it and I had a hard time trying to explain that freezing wintry mix is NOT good to play in!

We are going to the discount theater to see Underdog in a little while. I told Emma and she said, "Oh... no. That one is not good." We'll see if she's right!

Emma wants to say hi:

[DznyFan]

Gotta love Emma!! Tell Emma I said:

eowwweiiiieeennndkkksgggghhhsiiikghh dkkkoessfftfytyty! Merry Christmas!

 

[DznyFan]

whew! That's over! The fudge is finished and cut, and I made the truffle insides and the pan of cheesecake for chocolate covered cheesecake squares. I'll dip everything tomorrow. I also have to make cinnamon rolls tomorrow afternoon for Tuesday morning. I'm pooped!

 

[lyzziesmom]

I made the truffles too! I couldn't remember the exact recipe, so I found it online and decided to make just half a batch, and make the almond variety (using almond flavoring in the middles). Well I mixed everything up and Lyzzie was happily mixing the beaters, and I realized I forgot the almond! So I snatched the beater away from her, washed 'em off and added the flavoring -- but oops! I added the full amount, in a half recipe. They are VERY almondy! But I love almond, so I think they're great. The filling was SO greasy though, I'm assuming from the almond extract, that I was afraid the chocolate wouldn't stick. I covered half with chocolate and half with white chocolate, and used the rest of each to decorate the opposite colored half. They look very pretty! There was an odd number so Lyzzie and I shared one and MAN I can't wait until tomorrow so we can eat those babies!


We went to see Underdog, it was cute. Emma loved it! There was only one other family in the whole theater besides us, it was great. We went to Burger King first but didn't have time to go inside, so we went to the drive thru. I wasn't even thinking that we might not be allowed to bring the food into the theater, I mean the place is cheap and kind of nasty so it didn't even cross my mind. The kid at the counter (they sell tickets at the concession) said, "For future reference, you're not supposed to bring in food but I don't really care." I felt bad though anyway.

Tomorrow we'll make peanut butter kiss cookies, and clean clean clean!! Normally we go to my parents house for Christmas Eve, but Mom asked me today if we wanted everyone to come here instead! It does make more sense, because I did all the baking so all the goodies are here, plus most of the gifts are mine for the kids and that way I won't have to schlep them back & forth, and when they get tired they can just poop out at home. But my house is very messy!!

 

[lyzziesmom]

I just caught myself sleeping at the keyboard. Must be bedtime.

Hoot!!

I survived yet another day at work! And no one broke anything while I was there. Shocking! A woman asked if we had a marijuana (sp?) scented candle.....ummmm, no! One guy made me so mad. He called and said he was in there a few days ago and was just now checking his bag and said we forgot to put in a few votives and 2 tart burners. That sounded strange because we would never forget that much stuff all at once. We figured he lost the bag. He comes in and it was a guy that was in there on Wednesday. I remembered him because he said I had OCD because of how I was arranging the votives. I looked at him and he quickly looked down. We have a 100 % satisfaction guarantee so my manager had to give him the stuff. My manager then questioned the other manager since she had rung him up. We both said that we had remembered him and that she did put all his stuff in the bag. My manager said that he figured she did but he had to give him the stuff. The guy was going to try to return all the stuff, get his money back and still keep all the original things he bought. He had a fit when we said we needed to keep the reciept in order for him to get his merchandise! What a jerk!

I belong to a College Program group on MySpace and found one of the girls I was at the presentation with! I sent her a message and she said we could meet up and she's show me all her stuff from her programs. (I think she's done 2 other programs and worked on DCL) I'm excited because I at least now "know" someone that will be over there.

I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas Eve! My parents are in Las Vegas so this is the first time we all will not be together for Christmas, I'm a little sad about that. We will celebrate Christmas on Saturday.

 

[pozey]

Good Morning!!! Merry Christmas Eve!!

 

[pozey]

How 'bout some pancakes??

 

[DznyFan]

Good morning, and thanks, Pozey, for the pancakes!!

So your truffles came out good, Lyzziesmom? I put mine in the freezer overnight, along with the cheesecake squares - I'm going to dip it all today after I get home. I can't wait to eat it all!

Nicole - what a jerk!! Can't stand people who try to take advantage of things. Only a month away from the college program!! Getting excited, I'll bet!

Well I imagine it'll be quiet around here today. I've got to work so I'll be hanging around - at least until I get to leave!

 

[pozey]

You are working DznyFan??

I'm so sorry!!
