"Getting ready to do some breakfast now!"


May I suggest the German Puff Pancake, with brown sugar sauteed apples?

OMG, they are SO good! (And so rich, that I only make them twice a year!)

That looks so DELICIOUS.
Pillsbury and I fixed some cinnamon buns
yesterday and you know what??? They were
very good. There’s 2 left and I may have
those since I can’t have the German Puff
Pancake!!!

They ARE "yummie" plus 100! It takes a lot of butter, but DANG they melt in your mouth!

(I'll send you one through cyber-space, Conor!)

(Or would you rather I FAX it to you?) LOL

Ha Ha Ha! Although I do have a nano iPod, I do not own any other item that the “Trustafarian” is sporting.

(My Jeans ARE “distressed”, but they came by it naturally!)

Yesterday, a woman was on tv saying that they are doing drugs, pooping, urinating and vomiting all over the streets!

(Yet, 500,000 Glenn Beck supporters (NOT DEMOCRATS) went to the Washington Monument to hear him speak, and did not leave ONE speck of trash!)

I guess that's the big difference between the parties.....one shows respect for others, and other's property.....the other could care less about others - it's all about entitlement...GIMMEE, GIMMEE, GIMMEE!

The Tea Party (2 million) left Washington cleaner than when they arrived.

The Inauguration of the Lyin’ King was a different matter:

What a disgusting mess they left! For the likes of me, I can’t understand how ANYONE in their right mind could endorse liberalism.

Happy Lovely Autumn Monday To Amy's Place


~Rural Resurrection~
By WayzaJOHNN

Along a cottonwood tree lined road
dusty from the breeze so soft
where the cattails climb to loft
their tips of pollen weighted load

A tricolor black bird sings its song
in a voice as clear as the early dawn
another answers from the miller’s lawn
in a sweet voiced tune that echoes long

The covered bridge creaks in the passing
in counterpoint to the stream below
and in that moment of connection I know
all the feelings in my heart massing

A whisper of the zephyr touches my soul
a caress, soft as watered silk in the night
and I’m transfixed by a beam of morning light
washed by a peace that leaves me gently whole

Conor, I use two 23 oz. (small) Corningware casserole dishes,
as this recipe makes two puff pancakes.

I sautee cored, pared and sliced apples
In brown sugar and butter while the pancakes are baking.

They must be served immediately,
Because once they cool, they lose their puffiness.

GOOD MILITARY MONDAY TO AMY’S PLACE!



The Soldier’s Code

1) I am an American fighting man. I serve in the forces which guard my country and our way of life. I am prepared to give my life in their defense.

2) I will never surrender of my own free will. If in command, I will never surrender my men while they still have the means to resist.

3) If I am captured, I will continue to resist by all means available. I will make every effort to escape and aid others to escape. I will accept neither parole nor special favors from the enemy.

4) If I become a prisoner of war, I will keep faith with my fellow prisoners. I will give no information or take part in any action which might be harmful to my comrades. If I am senior, I will take command. If not, I will obey the lawful orders of those appointed over me, and will back them up in every way.

5) When questioned, should I become a prisoner of war, I am bound to give only name, rank, service number, and date of birth. I will evade answering further questions to the utmost of my ability. I will make no oral or written statements disloyal to my country and its allies, or harmful to their cause.

6) I will never forget that I am an American fighting man, responsible for my actions, and dedicated to the principles which made my country free. I will trust in my God and in the United States of America.

President Dwight D. Eisenhower, August, 1955.
