[JustAmy]

LOL

Did you ask me a question or did I ask you one? Oh yeah, maybe I'll get to it tomorrow. : )

[ST.LOUIE1]

Mom said for us to clean up that s dog stuff. I'm going to try your tactic and just say "No!" this time.

It only works for me. : )

I may have to run away with Spike. : ( I'll bet you're gonna miss me.)

Maybe, maybe not. LOL

Nah....Of course I'd miss you. : )

[JustAmy]

Good afternoon, Dave.

Hope you are having a wonderful Wednesday!!

[ST.LOUIE1]

LOL! You are sooooo cute!

[JustAmy]

Compared to your cat, my mouser is a pussy cat!



That mouse is safe until you get here with your cat.

LOL

That mouse is safe until you get here with your cat.

Yeah, she's a mean one. Maybe we should use her for Amy's Place. LOL

TTYL, doll. Got some hockey and a Dodger game to watch tonight.

Ladies, ladies ladies, let me tell ya! Pecan Pie is Chads favorite dessert in the whole world! (I am the real chocolate freak)!!!! He already spotted this recipe and is whining because he is afraid he won't get any!

[chadsworth]

Let's tell Chadsworth the rally starts at 6:45. : )

If Mama Bear is going to bring somethng like that, THE RALLY STARTS WHENEVER MAMA-BEAR ARRIVES.

Now that we have that straightened out, Mama-Bear, what time do think you will arrive.

Forget the chocolate stuff (for now);>0

[chadsworth]

From LIR herself-(I am the real chocolate freak)!!!!

And all this time you thought that the brownie and chocolate act ( trying to get brownies) was for ole Chads. Well I guess the truth had to surface eventually.

LIR is the admitted chocolate freak.

You know, I bet all thsoe brownies were really good, at least that is what LIR tells me. I will have to try one sometime.;>)

[JustAmy]

"THE RALLY STARTS WHENEVER MAMA-BEAR ARRIVES."

I think she should bring two and we can rally for half hour before we get down to the business of eating.

Happy Texas Pecan Pie Day!

[JustAmy]

I agree ..... I was thinking this pecan pie with cream cheese if something I should try. Cream cheese is good in or on anything. With pecans and cream cheese, this should be yummy!!

[JustAmy]

Mom always liked you best!!! : (

Evening friends.

To A Terrier (Part I)

Hail to thee, blithe spirit!
Dog thou never wert--
That from my door or near it
Pourest thy full heart
In profuse strains of unpremeditated art.

Louder still and louder
From thy throat it sparkest,
Like a clap of thunder;
Outside my home thou parkest,
And barking still dost stay, and staying ever barkest.

In the golden light'ning
Of the sunken sun,
O'er which clouds are bright'ning,
Thou dost woof and run,
Like an unbodied joy whose race is just begun.

The pale purple even
Sets off your terrier white;
Thank God there aren't seven
In the broad daylight.
Thou art unseen, but yet I hear thy shrill delight:

Keen as are the arrows
Of that silver sphere
Whose intense lamp narrows
In the white dawn clear,
Although we cannot see, we hear that you are there.

All the earth and air
With thy voice is loud,
As when night is bare,
From one lonely cloud
The moon rains out her beams, and heaven is overflow'd.

What thou art we know not;
Thou art not a hound.
From thunderheads there flows not
Such a boisterous sound,
As from thy presence showers-a nuisance all around.

-- From "To a Skylark" by Percy Bysshe Shelley

When you make that pecan pie with cream cheese for Chads, let me know. I think I will just stop by. :)

[Victoria Delsoul]

Great post Oesy, thank you. Kerry looks like a loser for sure.

[chadsworth]

I don't think you have a full grasp of the program.

The rally protocol requires that we eat first, that applies to anytime someone brings something to eat - oh things like Layered Pecan Pie and brownies for LIR just for a start.

Mamabear will have to set the trend, her being the Central Valley Chapter President and all ( and fully realizes that this function and activity cannot be appointed to someone else.) That is a mandantory duty of the president you know. I saw it in my chapter bylaws.

[ladyinred]

I will bring you the entire pie after reading what Chads wrote! I am the chocolate lover yes, but not the Brownie lover! That is Chads! I am more into HERSHEY Bars and Fudge, etc. NOT BROWNIES! LOL!

[chadsworth]

I think I will just stop by.

I gots an idea, just tell her that you are stopping by tommorrow for a piece of that skrumptous sounding pie - just maybe she will have one ready.

Well, it's worth a try!!

[OESY]

Thank you muchly! I like tracking down these gems, but I've learned to leave finding the songs, Golden Oldies and Others to you.

You light up our lives with music, if you don't mind the mixed metaphor, if you know what I mean, like you can't really sound wave up our lives or blast us up, you know.

I think it's time for bed...err, sleep, or whatever.

[JustAmy]

That is a cute poem, Victoria.Thank you for sharing it with us.

How was your day? I just got back from my walk. Phewwww .... need to catch my breath. : )
