My wife and I have been out of town on business. We left a business dinner early so we could get back to the hotel room in time for the live show Wednesday night. She only watches on TV, doesn't do the clubhouse thing. When they announced "by a vote of 6-2".... I was jumping up saying "YES,,, YES,, 5 PTS FOR ME!!!!"

I think she was ready to call the guys in the white coats to come get me.

Changing the PC clock does wonders for adjusting to Pacific time! (I am now going to bed at 5am Eastern and waking up at 1pm:-)

I'm thinking of trying a PB&J diet for a week, since it seems to work so well.

Bastable, we're on the same page. I hear the hamsters talk about having to eat PB&J and they're wasting away to nothing. I'm thinking I'll start a PB&J diet and give up on the South Beach Diet.

Yeah, I have a friend who's been eating "fish kebabs" all week on the SoBe Diet and she's about to skewer everyone she meets. I'll try the Skippy Diet and see what shakes loose. Or should I call it the BB Diet?

You KNOW there are certain names that are ruined forever for you -- you could never name a child of yours by that name! ~R~

People at work know not to ask you to work certain shifts because they know when BB is on....even if they know nothing about the show.

I've seen recipes for bellinis posted around here, and wanted to share mine.

First of all, the "official" bellini is made with white peaches. Which are not available all year 'round (and nope, they are usually not available in the frozen section). If you want an authentic bellini, puree white peaches until smooth and add to champagne.

An alternative bellini is made with peach schnapps. Here's the recipe for that type of bellini:

Peach Bellini

Ingredients

125 Ml (4 oz) Champagne
60 Ml (2 oz) Peach schnapps
Method

Combine, stir, serve over ice. This recipe yields 1 serving.

Recipe Source: TASTE with David Rosengarten From the TV FOOD NETWORK - (Show # TS-1G20 broadcast 05-20-1998) Downloaded from their Web-Site - http://www.foodtv.com


Note that many bars do not stock peaches in any form, so that if you decide that a bellini is your drink of choice, you'll need to use the one with peach schnapps. BOTH versions are good, though!

The BB4 show becomes two hours long because the hour before a show is spent reviewing the live feeds from the most recent days. ~R~

Rouguescollar- Don't forget on the night of the live show it is even longer, at least for me. I have to watch the aftereffects of eviction/HOH competition.

OK, I need to share our Bellini recipe too, for the sake of debate. Up here in Vancouver Canada, Bellinis are HUGE. The recipe at every restaurant chain is:

White Rum, Peach Schnapps, Sparkling Wine, and slurpee mix blended together and frozen into a slurpee consistency. Then it is served in a martini glass, and it is drizzled with sangria, so it's an orange thick slurpee, with red liquid on top...very pretty.

My teen daughters and I love BB and have been fans since the first season. All we have to say is "he's a Will" and we know they are talking about a good looking but not honest man. Or she is doing a "Robert" wich means picking the nose. Or could that be a Bunky? Etc. very fun cause unless they a BB fan, others have no idea what we are talking about.

Costacat, I can't wait to try this!!! I had my first ever white peach last year and fell in love with them! For now I'll be using the Schnapps since apparently it's not white peach season (haven't seen them around)...sigh...

Thanks for the recipe!

Was at the state fair this week and over head there was a banner plane flying around. Thought to myself "wow I feel like the hampsters" then I realized it had no stratigic info on it :(

Then later in the car my boyfriend told me he was gonna flick a booger on me (was joking with the kids) and I said "OK Robert" even though he is semi into BB he didn't get it and gave me a blank look. So had to laugh at that.

I understand Spunky- I was wanting someone to check to see if Ice posted a new question- since it cost me $1 to use dial-up from the hotel- but I figured it would take too long to explain to that person how to get to ice's game. So- I paid $1 Friday- to see who won POV- and Saturday- to make sure Ice did not post a new question. SAD. (dh wanted to take the laptop- so that was not an issue)
