I figured since we just squeezed by GHD that we could celebrate some more winter weather, THERE is suppose to be a winter storm coming thru the area - so maybe we can light up the fireplace, make some hot drinks and sit a spell?


I have some red velvet cake mix and frosting, How's about cupcakes and coffee to start off with?


DONE!:D

Sounds good, I will bring some chai and warm spiced cookies.

And is there ground hog - a.k.a. pork sausage perhaps available? ;)

Sounds good on a night like this.
Perhaps a little Buddy Holly on the jukebox for the anniversary?

We can also celebrate that I finally have high speed Internet access!!! :D:D

Of course, my email is messed up right now. But heading in the right direction.

A cherry vanilla coke for me please? It's supposed to be in the 70s by this weekend. :eek:

Ooooo, do you indeed? It seems that no email is the price you have to pay for high speed access. I never did get my email to work again after we got broadband. I am used to the hotmail account now anyway.

Might you give us more pictures of the furries now? :D

YES, :( Darn-It!! :mad:

I wish they'd remember to put his Dark Glasses on before they pull him out
of his den into all the TV lights!
He can't help but see his shadow!

:p

Indeed I might! I put 3 pics of Chester on Photobucket today. It only took about a minute (or less) per picture compared to the 20 minute wait per picture it usually took. :D

Good grief Charlie Brown, it seems like forever since I've been here. No wonder I'm stressed. :confused: I need to make myself take some time for the bar.

Moff, congrats and make sure you hold your hat down when you surf.:D Look out furries, that flashy box will be shining in your eyes all the time now. ;)

Wolflady? That confoozles me. Our West Coast groundhog saw his shadow, durn it.

KYS - that sucks big time. So sorry. :(

What's on tap? I'll take whatever it is please. I wonder how Mz Gini is holding up? We need to send some speshal vibes down/over there.

Happy February everyone! :love::love::love:

No snow here yet, but I hear KK will be sending it this way in a few days. Ugh!

How about some B.B. King next?

RICHARD
02-05-2009, 04:15 PM
B.B. King!

Yes!

How's about a Peppermint Patty and a cup cake?

STE,
Coffee?

Over here Richard....over here *waves madly**

I'm parched. I'd love an ice cold beer in a frosted glass. And since this is cyber I'd love some "Paula" food.....mmmmm everything tastes better with butter and bacon grease. :cool::D Maybe some deep fried shrimp with hot sauce or some onion rings. Now that would go down good right now.

Oh yes, the heater in my truck is gone. Think you can fix it? :)

It's not quite so cold out tonight - 8 PM and we're still at 20 degrees. My ankle hurts (the one I broke at the end of September). Instead of a Peppermint Patty, could I please have decaf coffee? Here, I brought shortbread cookies -- who would like one with me?

Karen

Just looked at the current temperature for here - it is 8 degrees Fahrenheit, but "feel like" -2F!

So large hot chocolate, please. extra strong. And I'll ask the Orc to thow some more wood on the fire.

Lady? C'mere, girl and I'll give you a good snuggle.
(For those who have never met Lady in person, her coat look like a Lab's coat, but feels like velvet. Think of a large kinda bony velvet hot-water bottle next to ya - or on you!)

Hence the Velvet Cupcake theme for the week!

I wish I had a huge doggie to snuggle with here on the 'farm'!

As of now I have to put up with a weight on my chest and cat snoring!:p

One hot choco and extra wood.
Done!

The new flavor of MD is awesome! Right now I have Live wire, which is the orange variety :)

My kitties remind me that they are here too, and want something in the food department. Whatever is on special is fine with them!

DONE!

OML, Do you have a Toyota? As my truck got older the lower speeds on the heater fan went away......It was 'fool' speed ahead or nothing!

I pray for you and send you some deep fried food!
.
DONE!

DJ, I have Whiska packets? Does that work?


DONE?:confused:

Redd- I was laughing at the Mexican station weather report.
They call an umbrella a "para aguas" or "parra aguas" - "stops the water" or "for the water".
Your choice?

Ice Tea with the proper foul weather gear?
DONE!

Your choice?:D

Thanks for the offer of Peppermint Patty and a cup cake, Richard! I do wonder what they are, but I'm never afraid of trying something new. ;) If I don't like them, then I'd LOVE one of Cassiesmom's shortbread, please! Ohh, and a Cafe au lait would be nice too! :p

I met a bunch of catlovers the other day, for the first time, they're part of a Meet-Up group who exchange cat sitting - isn't that neat! If any of them join PT, do make sure to welcome them! :D

Oh, goodness! Maybe you call them something different over there?

Cupcakes are just small cakes - you take cake batter, and pour it into individual-sized "cups" and bake and frost!

And then eat, of course!

Karen forgot to mention that they are Red Velvet cup cakes!

They come out red and are so moist they really melt in your mouth!

If you don't like them, Can I have your share?:D

A peppermint pattie is a hot chocolate with a shot of peppermint schnapps!:D

NO, because there is no way to get to your house in time!


They are WHISKERS!

When I first say them on the food channel I thought it was some kind of dumb fad. Then I had one and ZOOM! I prefer them with the cream cheese frosting.
Not too sweet but perfect!

Please be careful driving?

DONE!:D

Stopping in before work...I love relaxing for a bit before I have to hit the ol grind. The kitties are quite happy with their treats, and orc seems to have found a cat toy and is now keeping them occupied :)

If you guys can, please click on that internet thingy in my signature. Its for a game...to see how many "internets" I am worth. Supposedly if you visit enough websites with people that will actually click on the banner you are worth more internet space :rolleyes:

Edit: I notice it says you shouldn't have been asked to give me internets. I don't think explaining myself is expressly "asking" but if you feel cohersed I guess you can give me negative points too lol.

Just another silly game :D I really spend too much time online...

You can see the footprints in the butter!

You can smell the peanuts on their breathe!

Would you believe it's still 53 degrees in Chicago at 8:15 PM on a February night? Could I have iced tea, please? A toast to the spring that's on the way! And a prayer for those affected by fires in Australia and storms in the U.S. too.
