Cottage, you're killing me...I haven't started our veggie garden...our roto-tiller broke last year and is in the shop. But our rhubarb, raspberries, oregano, and thyme are all up and growing away!
Plus we have all our seeds and plants ready to go. What are you going to plant?
Oh,
Cat that's horrible!!!
Can you talk to your school to see if they'll cover the fees? What an awful mistake!!!
Hope you have a lot of fun today to make up for it!
"Too bad I need sleep" Me too,
Ruthie, me too! What do the tent caterpillars do? I've seen them in trees 'round here, but other than finding them fascinating, I've not thought much of them... So glad you have so much help! What do you have to bake? I made a double batch of cherry almond scones last night for my party. First time I've baked with agave nectar...so I'm holding my breath!
Hi,
Mandy! Sounds like we need to do some "NO Rain dancing" for everyone, eh?
Hi,
Cyndi!
I hate it when that happens, too. I tend to highlight the whole batch and hit Ctrl and C (to copy it) before I try to post, so in case it gets lost, I have a copy. I know it's kind of obsessive, but I've lost too many posts and it drives me crazy!
Nessa, you encourage me so much...I want those weigh-ins, girl! (of course, you have to step on a scale to get a weigh-in...I'll have to keep relying on my nutritionist to tell me what's up
) Don't let other people bother you if you know what you're doing works for you. Okay? If you know you're fooling yourself or trying to sneak something in, it's helpful to have other people call you on it, but I know you're working really hard on this, so don't let it bother you, 'kay?
So sorry about the check, that's absolutely awful!!!
Schmoodle!!! The "refined flour police," eh? Too funny! You are adorable. Stop at TJ's for me too, please? I need Bing cherries.
Hi,
Gonna, simulposting! I love Piggly Wiggly too...DH's family lives a couple blocks away from one and they are truly wonderful stores, but the name is an added bonus! I remember hearing about it when my friends and I did a one-act play of Steel Magnolias, and we though the name was a joke!
Me:
I'm having a "vision board gathering" on Saturday--a chance for some friends and I to make vision boards a la The Secret, chat, get to know each other more, and eat, of course.
I'm planning on a veggie tray, fruit platter, SBD-ized fruit tart (a la Martha...great recipe made for Passover, so it doesn't have refined flour), SBD-safe scones, and SBD-safe finger sandwiches (though I'll make some on white bread for the others that I just won't eat). I haven't decided on the fillings yet, but I think at least one will be smoked turkey, smoked gouda, and apple slices. One more might be curried chicken salad, and then another may be cucumber, but we'll see. Sounds like too much poultry... I don't like eggs or seafood, so I'm just not going to do the traditional egg salad or any kind of shrimp/crab thingy. My house, my rules!
I invited a ton of people and am happy some are coming, but a little worried because it's almost like one person from each group of friends...I hope they all get along!
It's my last week at work, so today I'm going to be trying to learn Word 2007 while the students are doing their finals. We'll see...
Off to the gym after work today, then home to do more party preparation!
