Did Ya sneak some cake out for Us? Wishing the new couple much happiness and joy in thier union and may god bless them both. twi

Oh Reci, I remember when DD#2 had her tonsills out at age 15, ewwwww.. She lived on ice cream, poached eggs, cream of wheat and jello for 2 months. As an adult she will eat none of those things now! Hope you're feeling better soon, and I have a BIG NJ Texas Weiner for ya when ya can eat it, right down to the chili and onions! twi

OH Pam, I've wondered so often how you have been and how you are doing! ICQ # is 102560278... Have you heard from LindaG or her son Rob? I miss you all so much! twi

I am working on the last bird now Grace... it is almost done and i am not ignoring you.

When my kids were little I used to give them a quart jar of cream and milk and let them roll it back and forth between them while they watched tv... they loved to see the flecks of butter forming and knew next morning the butter would be on their toast.

Glad you and Ole Pine are ok... twi

May the love of the lord bless one and all and may the spirit of loving encompass all of you... twi

Merry Christmas everyone! The little guys grandpa just came and picked him up and will bring him home tomorrow... they wanted him for Christmas dinner , but with the sleet and all that we are getting right now I told them to keep him overnight.. stay inside where it is safe.

Snow is due to start heavy around noon or so here and we are expecting upwards to a foot.. TheGiant will be out plowing if that is the case so I will enjoy a quiet Christmas day or two by myself.

The Hams' baking in the oven right now and I will be making scalloped cheesy potatoes to go with it, baked beans and a green salad. Just took my homemade bread outta the oven and it will be a nice addition to the meal.

Propane tank to the grill is filled incase we lose power here... I can cook on the side burner. Have plenty of blankets and a down comforter to keep warm with.

Have a safe and happy holiday... luv twi

Chuga, chuga, boom! Out pop's a large Pinion Pine tree with the most beautiful golden star at the top. Now how did that machine know I've been missing my pinion opine trees from back home for Christmas?

hmmmm no ornaments! Twila digs out some crochet lace snowflakes from the shelf in the closet and pretty glass bulbs... sure hope the others bring something to put on the tree.

Oh and Look! Outside the window is a wreath decorated with sea shells and gifts from the sea!
