TOTALLY GEEKED!

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

Tear free Tuesday

karl271 · Guru

Sunny, beautiful here. Washed, but the clothes simply refuse to dry. Must be the humidity, although I do not notice it as the temperature is low.

I know what to do_sometimes · Frozen Sucks!

I am feeling so much better. Must have been a short lived bug. I will be working long hours the rest of the week and probably next week. 3 big projects going on at the same time. But within a few weeks it will all be done and I will be able to sit back and relax a bit.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Good morning.

Wonder if Dona could pass me her cattle prod? I got two boys who can't seem to get moving this morning.

37 and mostly clear.

Glad you feel better IKWTDS.

Happy Tuesday ya'll.

Ok, made a white chicken pizza last night. Pretty much set the oven on fire. Ugh! Stupid recipe!

Morning all! #1's cold is breaking up. Waiting for #2 to get it now, just in time for Halloween. Baking pears right now for this week's breakfast.

Mmmm.... baked pears...

I'm working the day shift, which has me confuzzled already!

Confuzzled must be the new catch word.. confuse

Good morning!

FNW, glad one is better and hope the other doesn't get the crud.

IKWTDS, glad you are feeling better. How was your weekend?

Lily, I could have used Dona's cattle prod this morning as well. Darn kids.

Trudy, you were brave to make white chicken pizza. Will the oven survive?

Good morning Karl and NJN!

Another beautiful morning here. I am hoping it rains here soon. The dust is killing me.

Ripped out a seam on the quilt, re-seamed it and gosh, it fit! I think the time-out corner works. wink

Pretty decent day here although the temp is still only 40, it's sunny, and that always helps. Hope I'm not coming down with something, I am FREEZING! It's always cold in our office, but I seem particularly chilled today.
Quiet day at work so far.

They both finally rolled out of bed 15 minutes before we had to leave.

Then Jesse is saying how we need to get going, he has to meet someone in the school library.

Isn't it amazing how you can only be in a hurry when they say so?

DGS did this to me this morning. DH was not happy.

My guess is overpriced burgers on fancy buns served on trendy wooden platters or something like that. I will report back later.

Morning everyone. It is wonderful weather here. My very favorite time of year.

I am completely out of cheese. That is unacceptable so I decided to start a grocery order. I wasn't sure I had enough on my list to meet the $100 minimum but somehow managed to easily get to $215. Progresso soup was on sale for $1.25 a can. That is half the regular price so I bought a bunch. I like soup for lunch when it is cold out plus the Boy Scout food drive is coming up. I also bought my Halloween candy. That was at least $25.

I'm lucky DH knows how to MAKE coffee! I will not complain, because he DOES make coffee. smile

Cleaning, I'm not sure he has a clue.

He can do dishes though. smile

And he cooks!

Lexxy · My dog name is Sasha, too!

I am making beef stroganoff this weekend. I love it but haven't had it since I moved out of my parents home. My coworker had some for lunch yesterday & I had serious food envy. I've never made it before but I bought a packet of McCormick mix & it sounds easy enough.

To clean your oven don't you just turn it to the clean setting & let it bake everything to ash & hope it doesn't set of the smoke alarm? That's how I do it. Not very often though.

That packet make really good Stroganoff. I used to eat it a lot in my past life...

My oven needs cleaned SOOO bad. But I'm getting another one in a couple of weeks and I just cannot bring myself to clean it. It would be a wasteful way to spend my time... wink

No sense wasting time cleaning it if you are getting a new one. Make sure the new one has the self cleaning setting smile

Oh, the new one most definitely has a self cleaning setting. I know what I'm getting, I just need for the remodel to be done before I buy it...

My past life...that's what I call my life with the Ex. I live a completely and totally different life than the one I had with him. It's like two different lives...

I set off the alarm last night! It was bad. So I won't do that.

Bonny - I don't even understand that menu. Bleh give me plain old American bar food without too many toppings & that I know what they are. I don't have a very sophisticated pallet.

TrudyML · Guru

Mmm, Lamp dip! Those cords could zap ya!

Tignanello · My dog name is, Sasha!

mmmm ..... West coast 1/2 shell oysters with lemon! Also good with a tiny bit of raspberry sauce, but almost nobody does that . . .

Riding · Guru

that is quite the menu....I am really not sure if I would enjoy anything on it.
