Herckleperckle | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 08:52 pm     Right now, I want to thank Pamy so much for indulging my bad son, the beastie, Matt. You were very kind and sweet to him! And I want to thank Eggie for sending beautiful, sincere wishes to my family and everyone else's! I feel very lucky to be basking in the warmth of my family and that this crescent-moon night has been tranquil so far. And right now, I want to tell you all that Solifelike's Moroccan recipes were fantabulous! I made her "Chicken Tagine with Prunes and Honey" for our Christmas dinner. Everyone loved it!!!!! I served it American style, however, with rice AND accommodated everyone with silverware. I had bread of every kind for dipping into the terrific sauce, and we served champagne and (!!) red wine (not white--no one likes it!) with dinner. Right now, I am warming up some Crosse and Blackwell plum pudding and hard sauce now. MY dh is snoring away on the overstuffed living room chair, my ds is talking on his cell phone, and my dd and I are the only ones contemplating getting into the plum pudding right now--with Earl Grey tea! Solifelike, my ds especially loved your recipe, so I offer many, many thanks, as he is a really picky eater. When he asked what the brown things were (prunes), I simply answered, "special fruit" so he'd give it a try. Of course, he and my dh -picked up on those code words and never touched the prunes. But the honey and cinnamon and prunes really flavored the recipe beautifully. I have never seen my son eat so much!!! Right now, I want to assure everyone that Herc had lots of extras today--bacon and sausage leftovers this morning--and chicken leftovers this evening. Tomorrow at 10 am, his sutures come out! I had a terrific Christmas day evening with my family. Hope you all had wonderful holidays, as well! |
Herckleperckle | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 09:13 pm     OMG, right now I caught up on that discussion. Lordy, lordy, am I glad this thread was in view of my ds, and not the other. He is a beastie and I know I would never have survived whatever he would have said! |
Juju2bigdog | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 09:16 pm     Hey!!! Who is he calling woosey Moms???? Doesn't he know some of us are seriously mentally ill axe murderers? The nerve! <stomps off>

Pamy | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 09:37 pm     LOL!! |
Tess | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 09:39 pm     <can post some photos as proof!> |
Egbok | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 09:40 pm     Right now I just want those who peek in here to know that I survived the day...and oh yeah, I ate my fair share to gain those 5 extra pounds! (Hi Sire & Herckleperckle!!) |
Pamy | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 09:48 pm     LOL Tess. Ms. Eggie, you would still be beautiful with 5 extra pounds! |
Grannie | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 10:09 pm     Grannie is home now. Had a wonderful day with the family and even the Grand Dogs. My sons always bring their dog to the other son's home so that they can play together. Ms. Eggie, the gift exchange went well. But everyone still gave me gifts. Go figure. Drove thru heavy wind, heavy rain and fog to get there and the wind and rain kept up all day and into the evening. But it stopped raining for my drive home. We must have had heavy wind and rain here while I was gone. I stepped inside the enclosed patio and it was all squishy carpet. The wind had blown some leaves into some rain drainage pipes and clogged up the works. That pushed the rain right into my patio. Carpet is soaked. Can't do anything about it tonight but I did unclog (is that a word?) the pipes. Herckle, that was nice of Sire to give us all a shoutout. |
Grannie | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 10:33 pm     P.S. When my kids starting teasing me today I told them to watch it because I would go online and tell all of my TVCH friends everything that they did today. They got a kick out of that. But now they know how much time I am spending at this site. Oops. |
Hippyt | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 10:56 pm     Right now, I am gonna send Mocha an e-mail. |
Hippyt | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 11:07 pm     eh,nevermind,this puter is sooooo freaking whack I can't even get to my email. |
Tess | Thursday, December 25, 2003 - 11:22 pm     Right now I'm thinking that's a sign for Hippyt to head home. |
Reader234 | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 06:51 am     Right now I'm eating apple pie for breakfast. MY homemade pie crusts dont taste as good as the refrigerator kind! I had planned on eggs and leftover ham, but DS swim coach called, and turns out swim practice was at 8AM TODAY! sheesh, he said "where's Ryan?" I said "I have on my calendar practice starts at 10:30" he says (and I quote) "I dont know how that rumor got started" I'm thinking I screwed up Tuesday, but the calendar had it right, I just read it wrong, TODAY IT SAYS 10:30 - HE ScREWED up!! For once ds was up AND he had eaten breakfast, so he was there at 8:30... So, of course that means I get apple pie for breakfast - right?!!! |
Mocha | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 09:06 am     Right now I'm sad that Hippy wasn't able to send that email. |
Gidget | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 11:38 am     Tater*Tater*Tater For all you friends and fans of Ms. Tater... just spoke with her. Her operation was a great success... she has very high hopes for her hand and arm now. Her pain has been largely eliminated and she already appears to have much improved function. She is in very good spirits... not terribly uncomfortable but taking advantage of the opportunity to catch up on some sleep. She misses everyone but is being a good girl and staying off the keyboard for now. |
Egbok | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 11:49 am     Right now I'm thanking Gidget for the TaterTot update! (((TaterTot))))...I miss you!! |
Mocha | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 12:11 pm     Right now thanks Gidget for the Tater update and I'm glad she's doing good. Tell her we miss her and hello. |
Reader234 | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 02:02 pm     Yeah Gidget!! Thanks for the update!! Tomorrow is Saturday!! WTG Tater, been thinking, and sending + + + + thoughts your way!!! May your sense of humor continue to get you thru! |
Sillycalimomma | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 03:33 pm     Right now I am happy to hear that Tater is doing well! Yay! I just woke up from a much needed nap. The Auntie in law dragged me out to some morning bird sales this am at the mall! I can't believe I am alive still! Those people are crazy! But I picked up some REALLY great deals. Managed to get my daughter 3 pairs of nice designer jeans, 4 shirts and a knit sweater all for under $80! I also picked up two nice polo shirts for DH, two pairs of gold earings and a new pair of shoes for myself! Just another $45 for that! Can you believe it? I sure couldn't. Anyway, between that adventure and our Disneyland adventure I can not walk to save my life now! My back and legs are killing me! Right now I think I have rambled long enough... |
Dipo | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 03:42 pm     Right now I just spilled some cola on my laptop!!A!A!! As you can sdee, it is now typing weirdly. I only got a little bit on the left side of the keyboar d. Is there anything I shoulss sso??? I am getting weird combinations of letters. Help if syou have ideas. |
Reader234 | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 04:29 pm     Dipo, I'll bet you'll need to try and take off the top to get to the sticky mess... I think there is a thread for computer questions, or ask Draheid in his personal folder... (why I can never remember the other competent wonderful computer geeks I do not know!) |
Hippyt | Friday, December 26, 2003 - 06:15 pm     Next day,still can't get to my email. It's time to go home! |
Herckleperckle | Saturday, December 27, 2003 - 12:04 am     Right now, I am happy to report that: Herc's sutures came out in record time this morning--accompanied only by shaking and shivering during the 'operation' and no attempts at eating the vet. Later in the day, I was able to convince Herc to wear his Santa hat for 2 pictures. His left ear may never sit up straight again, but . . . we still think he is the cutest dog ever! My ds made it back to DE safely--left after a big breakfast. I packed a goodie bag for him that included the homemade lemon bread he had requested ( . . . and that I finished baking for him in the wee hours of Friday morning). My dd decided to spend another night. YAY!! Dh and I will be driving her back to Brooklyn Saturday right after dinner. |
Mygetaway | Saturday, December 27, 2003 - 12:48 am     Right now I'm making my second and final round of new messages and then I'm hitting the hay!! YEY.(I hope I can sleep... ) Right then I will be fighting the dogs and the cat "with an attitude" for pillows and covers....lol |
Grannie | Saturday, December 27, 2003 - 06:37 am     Tess, thanks for the great update. Sarah will like Elf. Took my grands to see it and we all enjoyed the movie. Herckle, so glad that Herc is agreeable to trying on a red hat. |
