This thread is going to be very hard on my diet. ; ) That sounds fantastic.

[pollyannaish]

LOL. I've heard freepers have a way of exposing the truth. A prime example.

[Mama_Bear]

That looks more like an organ to me than piano it seems to have stops on it?

Is it an organ? See, I wouldn't know, I am basically musically illiterate. At first I wrote "organ", then I changed it to piano. I think you are probably right and I'll change it on the graphic. :-)

Help I am more confused than ever how do you buy them and what do they look like, do you cook them, make them into something?

trust me, buy a pizza instead. It is sort of like cream of wheat but NO flavor. you need to drown it in ketsup, pancake syrup, salsa.. SOMETHING for it to taste good.

Just MHO, of course

:-)

both are less than a month old. I have them now in front driveway & I will do surgery. I need to be assembling a room not fixing appliances!....sigh

[pollyannaish]

Glad I checked in. I keep intending to get my backside outside, but I go fold a load of clothes...run back to the computer...go outside for a minute...go check the computer.

Sheesh...sometimes I have NO self discipline.

I'll definitely see you later on the dose.

[DollyCali]

Hi darling.. glad you are here (come back often).. go to yesterday's thread for the part one of the california gal's trip.. (less grits there too) - that is the Ohio part

Need to get busy...

[pollyannaish]

Thanks!

Looks like you had a GREAT time. I'll take a look at yesterday's thread. I totally understand that "need to get busy part!"

Have a good one.

(respond if you wish to this thread.. i Posted it on wrong thread.. duh/dolly)

borrowed from "the raven" (pretty good for a stud muffin)

@@@

A man was sitting on the edge of the bed, observing his wife turning back and forth, looking at herself in the mirror. Since her birthday was not far off he asked what she'd like to have for her Birthday.

I'd like to be six again, she replied, still looking in the mirror.

On the morning of her Birthday, he arose early, made her a nice big bowl of Lucky Charms, and then took her to the local theme park.

What a day! He put her on every ride in the park; the Death Slide, the Wall of Fear, the Screaming Monster Roller Coaster, everything there was.

Five hour later they staggered out of the theme park. Her head was reeling and her stomach felt upside down. He then took her to a McDonald's where he ordered her a Happy Meal with extra fries and a chocolate shake Then it was off to a movie, popcorn, a soda pop, and her favorite candy, M&M's.. What a fabulous adventure! Finally she wobbled home with her husband and collapsed into bed exhausted. He leaned over his wife with a big smile and lovingly asked, 'Well Dear, what was it like being six again?' Her eyes slowly opened and her expression suddenly changed.

I meant my dress size, you dummy!

The moral of the story: Even when a man is listening, he is gonna get it wrong.

LOL!!! Great reply, Dolly. And I concur!

Hi sistahs and finest friends. You did an awesome job putting everything together AGAIN sistah lori. Nan, Amy, PrissyMissy and babychick...LOVE your writeups too! And...yum, am having a "sliders" craving! (Nan and Aqua...you can have my grits :o) !

Busy day, hope to stop back later and see what Mama_Bear sez!!!!

[Mama_Bear]

I've heard freepers have a way of exposing the truth.

Indeed, we do! It may be stretching things just a bit, but I would like to think this ranks right up there with the FReeper exposé on Dan Rather, Mary Mapes and the fraudulent Texas Air National Guard documents! ;-)

[Mama_Bear]

We might be a blue state but we do have some great places to visit.

Oh, I am sure of that! I lived for several years in DC, less than a mile from the Maryland border (near Oxon Hill/Indian Head). I know that there is much to see and do in Maryland. God willing, I will get back out there - and I won't miss you the next time. :-)

[pollyannaish]

Nah. Not stretching it all. Not one bit. Nope. LOL.

[snugs]

Thanks Dolly reading about them I think I will stick with Quaker's Oats rather than try these LOL

[snugs]

Sorry culinary ignorance again what is a slider?

[Mama_Bear]

You did an awesome job putting everything together AGAIN sistah lori.

Awww.......thanks, dutchess.

And...yum, am having a "sliders" craving!

They were sure good. I can see why Mr.WVNan would be willing to drive all the way to LA to get some. But, alas, we don't have White Castles out here. We DO have "In N' Out" Burgers though. They are the BEST burgers on the planet! I admit....White Castle burgers come in a very close second. :-)

[snugs]

I am not really a music expert but it looks just like a older version of the organs that I grew up with at church basically the same layout but not so ornate as that one.

[snugs]

If they are only a month old can't you take them back to the store or will they reckon that you have caused the problem?

[Mama_Bear]

It's a slang name for a very greasy hamburger. I think it may have started in the military chow halls where the burgers would be sitting in trays floating in grease. (BTW, White Castle burgers are greasy, but not THAT greasy, LOL).
