Awesome, Nan! Breathtaking!

[WVNan]

Thank you for posting the WV thread, Billie. (You don’t have to keep posting that thread about me. Embarrassing.)

[WVNan]

I have a bread machine, but it doesn’t do a good job for me. My “hand made” efforts turn out better.

[luvie]

LOL! I just gained a pound looking at the picture!

YUM!

[Billie]

Your pots of mums are so pretty - I'm really, really ready for fall weather to kick in and STAY!

[WVNan]

Lori! Jack will kill you for bringing that picture up again. He chastized me when I put it up originally. He won't let anyone see his tatoos, and as for smoking...........well, he broke that habit after 35 years of chain smoking. That move saved his live in 85 when his appendix ruptured and it was five hours before they operated on him. He almost met his maker, but the fact that he had stopped smoking 2 years before that, gave him healthy lungs to prevent Pneumonia from setting in. We've always known that he would not have made it if he had still been smoking.

BTW, that couple were seriously in love.

[Billie]

Thanks for those links, Billie. I was scanning the comments on the "Nan in the Spotlight" thread and looky what I found! Isn't this just the cutest couple??? I don't remember seeing this when it was posted on her thread way back in '02.

Fun reading through the comments on these old threads - bittersweet seeing posts by Freepers who are no longer with us.

Ok, Nan - don't want to embarrass you - I won't link it again. :)

[Billie]

Well, to be honest, I like all those shoes better than all those diamonds, too!

[Billie]

Such a pretty graphic!

[WVNan]

Thank you sweetie. I love tooting the WV horn, and sharing her history, but I'm not one to seek the spotlight for myself.

Now, I must get off the computer and start a two day cleaning frenzy for company. I've procrastinated as long as possible. Have fun everyone. Maybe I can make a quick check back late tonight.

[Billie]

I’ve never mastered the art of making bread - but then, I never really had the desire! I do enjoy my bread machine once in a while though. I’m a cookie, pie, and cake baker - will leave the kneading to those who do it better. :)

[Lady Jag]

Yes, it’s classy and, especially being purple, it says a lot. It would also make a nice brooch.

[Billie]

I could eat two of them right now, but guess I'd better eat something a little more like - uh - lunch! :)

Back later.

[jaycee]

I love shoes but not as much as I once did. I am a more casual, comfortable person now! Have several nicer ones for church but those high, high heels aren’t for me anymore!

[Mama_Bear]

Lori! Jack will kill you for bringing that picture up again.

Uh oh. Sorry. But I know that Jack does not lurk here, so maybe this can just be a case of what he doesn't know won't hurt him? ;-)

I brought that photo over here because I just think it is so doggone cute. It's obvious that couple is seriously in love!

Jack and I have a few things in common. I also hate photos of me with a cigarette in hand. But that was yesterday, and it was what it was. I also quit (chain) smoking after 32 years (8 years ago), but not before developing C.O.P.D. As for my tattoo, if I had it to do over again, I might have gotten it in a less conspicuous place than my ankle, but I probably still would do it again. That's just me, I guess. :-)

Today I go over and have lunch with my MIL and the ladies at her table. Gotta run and get ready.

Love ya, Nan! TTYL

[Billie]

I still like to wear the high heels and ankle straps, and high-heeled boots in the fall and winter. I love shoes. :)

[LadyPilgrim]

Sorry to take so long getting back.
Just got home from Bible Study, in Joshua!
I love Joshua!!!

Anyway, yes almonds are there and yum! Yummy!

While I love icing...I can eat the cinnamon bread plain!!! ;-)))

[luvie]

Lunch is a good thing...especially when I got a call from a
friend who wants me to go with her! Yay. I haven’t seen her
for a while, either!

See ya!

[LadyPilgrim]

Oh my heavens....shoes! Oh I just love shoes and the higher the better.
But I do have a limit on what height I CAN wear, which is not much over 3 inches....
And ankle straps...yes!!! ;-)))
I love boots and wear those a lot too! With jeans and skirts and dresses.....

[jaycee]

Bless your heart....you have been to a good place! Joshua is very good.

That recipe makes three loaves. Don’t know if I could work me out a recipe for one loaf or not. Of course, I could surprise two friends and maybe they would always remember me...LOL~~~!
