Low Carb Archive - Chick Chat!

L....I took your comment because it was so appropriate!

We, had a great time! We met Leens and Amazing Baby Gracie and they followed us to the diner. Rosemarie knew us right away as she drove up...she said it was the baby although perhaps it was my monster hair! :lol:

We laughed, and had a few wheepies and ate and laughed some more. And you know what? It was really really REALLY nice to spend time with members of your estrogen posse who know "stuff" about you (and love you anyway) and have been supportive and kind and gracious and just plain WONDERFUL!

So....chicklets, if you ever get an opportunity to go or even go out of your way to meet another chickie...ask 'em if they're packin and then DO IT!

I miss them all ready!
peach
ps....Sooner? I let them take a picture of me and was polite enough not to throw the napkin over my face....pretty peachie eh?

Hey,
So glad you had a good time! It must have been hard to say good bye, maybe as hard as having your pic taken! I can't wait to see it!

Peach it was great meeting you today. Your baby is just so beautiful and soooooo good. So glad to meet Juffy and leans too. We had a short but fun meet. Ruth and Nora are just so special. We had a great week end. They had a different picture of NJ and quite surprise how nice it is here. We did some sight seeing on Sat. They plan on coming back next year for the grand tour.

If you ever have a chance to go to a meet, don't hesitate. Its a blast.

rose... did those canadians addle your brain with too many carbs??? baby gracie belongs to leens... peachie has no little girls. just two boys.. very cute ones, but no way can they be mistaken for sweet baby gracie.. all decked out in pink with that big smile and those blue BLUE eyes, just like her mom's

yes, it was a fabulous fabulous visit... many hugs, a tear or two. it really did feel as if we've known each other forever.

and i have to give these ladies credit: no one dived into my plate to grab the forbidden home fries!!!!!

leens is a sweetheart. with blue eyes that ruth said look like they're lit from the inside...

nora didn't want to give gracie to her mom. and we didn't want ruth and nora to head home!!!!

and the chicken purse is alive and well... ruth was hanging it out of the car when they all drove up!!! and no one tried to steal it!! [you know how jersey girls can be!!!!] or maybe you don't]

and do you know... they brought a STRANGER along.. from california!!! but she was lovely, and for better or worse, she fit right in. maybe it's her garden, or maybe it's the fact that she has rottweilers, but carolyn was just terrific. she at least acted as if we weren't crazy!!!

and rubirose... well, peachie and i were talking on the way home, and we agreed that rose was just like some of our relatives, and we loved her immediately. the italian thing, ya know.

so, i'm ready for another visit. there seem to be rumblings about events in south carolina later this summer...

a wonderful wonderful time!!!!!

That wasn't quite how the song went, was it?

Anyway, please do come see me down here in Lonesome-ville, ya'll!! I miss out on all the good stuff! Hope you can stand the heat, it's only about 115 in the shade on a hot day.

Seriously, I am jealous of ya'll! I hope you enjoyed your day immensely!!!!!!

:D

I am so glad you guys had such a great time! It is so fun to meet cyber friends. I swear that my cyber friends know things about me that my real life friends don't!

Kel

Scouth Carolina is much closer to Tennessee, I might make that one!!!!!!:D

Good Morning,

I could not wait to get to my computer this morning to tell you guys what a blast I had yesterday. You ladies are so much fun, I was smiling all the way home and even when I got up this morning.

I'm telling you, what a beautiful, sweet bunch of women and even Grace thought so, she just LOVED sitting on Nora's lap in the mall and let me tell you Grace doens't go by just anybody. Nora I think she's adopted you as her 3rd Grandma. How was your cookie :lol: Nora you are a pistol. The next time you come to NJ I'M BUYING !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks again.

The day started out a riot, there were Peach and Jiffy standing in the middle of the road (almost) flagging me down, like I could drive by and miss them two crazies. I don't care what Jiffy says, she is sweet and she's got one of the best sisters in the world. There's a lot of family love there, you can tell bye the way they look at each other.

Rosie I feel like I've know you forever, she is just the most darling person you'd want to meet. I felt like I was at home with her especially when she asked, how do you put your bra on :lol: Hope I see you again.

And then there's Ruthie, sweet, sweet, sweet Ruthie, after all these years FINALLY I got to look at your beautiful face and hug you.....and NO Tippy, I didn't fart :lol: Ruthie even came bearing gifts..what a sweetheart....What can I say Ruth, I'm lost for words....MOVE TO NJ !!!!!! :cry:

Carolyn if your reading this, it was so nice to meet you, I hope you had a safe trip home.

Ladies 1,000 HUGGS AND KISSES
I really hope we can do this again, how about next weekend at my house ?????????? :lol:

Peach and Jiffy, you have my #'s... All Of Them :lol: please call me if you need anything or if you just wanna go to Wallmart :lol:

LOVE, HUGGS, & KISSES.... Leens :dizzy:

Ladies, I am so glad your meeting went well. I thought about you all yesterday, wondering what you were doing. Sounds like you had a blast.

So tell me about this South Carolina get together. When, where???? I'll try and be there.

Debbie

What a wonderful opportunity. I hope that I can someday meet with some of you.

Hoping for a meeting picture!

It was such a blast to meet you wonderful women!!! I'm still reeling!! Each of you are so special, I am so honoured to have met you. Jiff, you seem so wise and courageous. It's like you're a general in the army and you've fought all these tremendous battles that would have finished off a lesser person. I think of quiet dignity when I think of you.

Peachy, I could tell right away how totally tied you are to your family, the bonds that you guys share are so obvious. The way you speak of your boys and how proud you are of Jiff... You are an amazing woman in your own right, Peachy. I feel like I've known you forever. :)))))

Leens, not only are you incredibly beautiful on the surface but it goes all the way through you. I'm sure that's what Ruth meant when she said that she could see the lights behind your eyes. If I had a daughter, I would have prayed for one like you. And Gracie!! Wowwww!! What a sweetie pie!!!

Ruthxxx, well, you know.

I have pics of everybody except Leens and Gracie. Can you beweeve that??? Geez. If anybody could send me pics of these lovely lasses, I'd be happy to include them on the web page that I created this morning.


Drop me a line, if you approve of your pics, I'll post the URL here in 3FC. :))))Email me! :) (norastevens@sprint.ca)

I think we were all thinking of you all yesterday! Glad it was so great! Liz

Nora, you posted exactly how I feel about meeting the chicks.
there isn't anything else to add cause you said it all.

Ruth and Noraand Carolyn are very special too. They are the best house guests. So generous and fun to be with. We just laughed so much.

Jiffy, Peach, Leans, the NJ gals have to get together again, we live so close to each other. I am so glad I met you all.

I've been smiling ever since! Harry remarked that I must have had a great weekend since I'm in such a great sp[ace this morning!
That was sooooo much fun! I love you chicks so much! And Gracie too - our little Chick-let!
We are going to do this again!

Nora I'd love to see the pictures, let us know where they are. I do not have your email addy but I PM'd you and gave you mine.

Can't wait to see them.

Girlies, when I get my pictures back in a day or two, I will send them to you but I need your email addy's.

Huggs, Leens :dizzy:

P.S...You and Ruthie must be exhausted after that long drive.

Wow what excitment...I feel like I was there. That must of been so cool. I hope I get the chance some day to meet up with some of the lovely people here.

I think there is something to be said about this comfort zone we are in. (3fatchicks) Thanks Suzanne and Jennifer for giving us this opportunity.

Have a glorious day~~~~~~Meg

I sure wish I was there! I want pics! pics! pics!

South Carolina? I'm in! When?

How so very cool that friends can get together. Leens, I picture you with reddish brown hair and blue eyes. Tell me, how was Peachie's monster hair? ;) And did Ruthie wear her studded metal bra? And is Jane just as gorgeous as I imagine? I'm sure Nora is the June Cleaver of grandma's! Come on, I want scoop! What did you guys talk about? US???? :s:

Details!!!

J

not jiff...

and we did talk about everyone... and that's how the south carolina thing came up, janice. someone said that you were considering it, and how could we pass up such an event????? a texan on the east coast!!!!! we could do a barbecue tour!!!!

but not in joisy. there is very little barbecue in joisy, and most of it isn't very good. of course, some folks are real pros at it, but ya can't get good stuff at a restaurant.

well, there IS a good mexican restaurant a couple of towns over, but they're from GALVESTON!!!! and smoke the meat as they did in texas.

why am i so food obsessed today????

we talked about food, gardens, dogs, food, family, food, babies, food, diets, food, tourist stuff, food, earrings, food, how we all put our bras on, food, hair colors, food, husbands and other men, food, cars, food.

does that about cover it?????

i hope someone else remembers stuff too...

Didn't you even talk about food?????????

Proud (?) to boast a barbeque joint on every other street corner here in SC. Ever hear of Maurice Bessinger? That's another story.

The main argument here is whether you like ketchup based, mustard based, or vinegar based. For really good vinegar based we have to go to NC, as most of the places here do mustard. I personally HATE ketchup based!

Now that I've talked about food, I'll probably have dreams about little piggies chasing me through town!

Thats funny, I don't remember talking about food ?

:s: :s: :s: :s: :s: :s:

Me neither! Except when the waitress tried to explain Canadian Bacon to Ruth!!! ROFLMAO....done brought to my eyes it did!

Oh! and maybe the smell of mrs fields cookies while that very strange and bizzar lady sat on me...how weird was that? I have been having night mares of that wacko!

So, noranora WERE the cookies good?

Janice.....WE TALKED ABOUT EVERY SINGLE DARN ONE OF YOU!!!!! :D

peach

Peach I don't understand why that lady parked her rump on you like that. She wasn't no skinny thing either, I mean her rumble seat was bigger than mine for crying out loud.

I don't get it, when I'm looking for somewhere to sit, I don't zoom in on the teeniest spot and try to back it in. I look for the biggest seat and charge !! - thank you !


:D

What did I miss when I went for a pee in Macy's? And are there pictures?

Looking forward to a South Carolina meet!!!

And peachie, who sat on you??

If anyone is interested in a wonderful bbq recipe, I have one. I don't eat bbq, but I make it for my family and they fight over it, they all say it is wonderful. Oh, it's a vinegar based recipe.

Debbie

Ruthie, Peach and I were chatting away in the mall and this rather large lady decided to sit next to.... or shall I say ON Peach. Peaches eyes almost bugged out of her head :eek: and when I looked over I could understand why. There was only a teeny spot open next to Peach and this woman decided to back her trailer right in on her, I wonder if she even felt Peach under her :lol: .

ROFLMFFFAO !!

Poor Peach !

Deb Lady, lay that recipe on me :)

NO PICTURES TODAY WAAAAAAH, MAYBE TOMORROW ??

Leens, will do, I have to go find it, but as soon as I do I'll post it.

Thanks for the explanation on how peachie was sat upon, LOL

Debbie

but did anyone notice that woman's strange hair???? it looked awful on her!!!!

of course, i'm not sure there was much hope for her anyway.

it was buzzed in the back and sides, and about a 2-inch bob along the top. and she had a strange little barrette on one side.

did nothing for her.

Oh Jiff, your as bad as me haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa :lol:
