Great to see you today, Majie.
I’m playing catch-up again. ;^ )
Have a relaxing, lovely weekend.
Palin sure sounded and looked great today. I enjoy her spark and determination.
As Diver Dave said, it will sure make voting for McCain much easier.
I’m among those who never heard of grape-nuts custard. but since grape-nuts is my standard breakfast staple, I think I’ll give it a shot. :)
Thanks, Majie.
He is a cutie.
I don't do RED hi-heels, but I'm wearin' my RED t-shirt while cruisin' around the living room on the old Hoover...
Had the opportunity to shake hands with a few fellow Vets while on vacation and again last weekend at the grocery store. The latter was a WWII submariner like my FIL. He told me he has a big reunion coming up with fellow Submariners.
I thanked each one for their service to this great country... I like to believe my words of "Thanks" come from everyone here on FR.
I love Grapenuts too. You’ll love it. It’s the best custard there is in my opinion.
