Just spent most of the day helping the Canadian economy by getting a haircut $40, gas $40, a car wash at $10, more than $350 in casual clothes, some new plants and shrubs for $50, fresh fruits and veggies for $44 and a $122 kennel boarding bill.
I plan to spend a frugal weekend but the economy feels stimulated!
Ruth---that almost sounds like our take on it we refuse to participate. it may take some time to get what we want but if it is something that we really want we will end up buying it. but anyway good for you.
Well had two eye appointments this week. I get this bummed eye fixed on Sept 15. Crazy fast timing. But that is good. DH is getting tired of my lame 1/2 blind fat girl jokes. Just trying to keep the mood "lighter", you know be a visionary in to the more humourous side of things. And I have the kids a wee bit freaked as Mommy will be able to "see" everything more clearly. No more getting away with things. No use getting depressed about it. Its all in Gods hands.
I tiddled up the chili with hot sauces and it's fine now.
Damned games are pushing us off the page. I've asked twice to get them moved but to no avail. Suzanne and Jennifer are really busy with a business move right now so it may be a while.
Sunny Sunday coming up BUT I did hear geese this morning. Maybe they were just locals not the guys that commute south. Whether we like it or not, it's starting!
Saw the first geese come by here last week. They are early this year, it seems. great that the chili is chili again. Love the doggy avatar, he looks a sweety-pie!
Julia, it is better to get this sort of stuff over with asap, anticipation is worse than the procedure itself.
Drunk chili, never had that however the Corona as your beverage may contribute to that If the chili is hot enough you need lots of Corona or if you are watching your weight , Bud Lite.
once in awhile we will use beer in chili. it really is not that bad depending on the beer. we usually use a darker one. and refried beans. the first time we made with beer i could not stand it but the more we made it the better it became because we started to find the right balance of ingredients.
that is the big thing with it how much and which kind is used makes a really big difference. we have found that the darker beers are better. but that is also the kind we prefer to drink any way.
I'm not going to waste my corona by dumping it in my chili....
maybe my son in law's dark beer he leaves in my fridge, for me to keep "iced" down...the guy will do anything to save a buck so he doesn't have to get a real job.
Feeling tiddly here
