Build a Snowman Thursday #347!

**RICHARD** · 12-16-2009, 05:10 PM

Since the weather has been 'Christmas-y' for the last few weeks, I thought a little outdoor fun would be in order.

Remember it's virtual snow.

I'll be back with a DOTD and some chow ideas?

Let me put my snow tires and we are off!

DONE!

You c-c-c-c-c-c-called it, k-k-k-k-k-k-kiddo!

I have been sick the last few days. Last night I woke up on the couch when my brother and nephew came in and they yelled at me because the house was so cold.

With that in mind?

I got fire wood lined up and it's veggie soup and home made garlic mashed potatoes.

LOL, I ran out of yeast, so we having warm tortillas instead of bread! Kalifornia Kwuisine?

DOTD?

Snowplow recipe
8 oz hot chocolate
1 oz Bailey's® Irish cream
1 oz Malibu® coconut rum
1/2 oz creme de cacao
1 dash cinnamon
1 1/2 oz whipped cream
In a coffee mug!

DONE?

Barkeep, I've been sick, too, but it's throat/chest/ears type thing. I'll take some soup, please, with a DOTD afterwards. I'm really getting tired of my couch!

LOL,

Do you wake up with a cat on top of you and wonder why you can't breathe?

The couch has caused me some problems, I cannot stretch out all the way, so If I fall asleep on it, sometime during the night I wake up and stretch then get the worst cramp, I literally fall out to the floor and scream!

One bowl of soup and a snowplow.

------

I hate being sick, I have had a bowl of top ramen, an orange and two small bottles of lemon lime soda and a cup of tea, in two days

I was so pumped up for some potatoes and now I am not in the mood.

Feel better, more firewood and a Snowplow.
DONE!

No, Richard, Pinot doesn't position herself that way.

She has to be glued to my hip, the backs of my knees, my thighs...not my chest, thank goodness, because it would be very difficult right now!

I'm sorry you're sick, and hope you feel better, too. Sucky diet, eh?

Thanks, back at you.

The thing I hate is wanting to eat, cooking, then being turned off by the whole idea.

No sickness here. Just a total meltdown. We're having a Chinook of sorts, no wind but warm temps. It was +2 today and everything is M E L T I N G!! Driving is a challenge in all the slop, windshield washer just can't keep up. Getting my H1N1 shot tomorrow.

That snowplow sounds really yummy though, I'd take one please.

Richard, you've got to keep warm, put on some socks!!

**Catherinedana** · 12-16-2009, 09:16 PM

Oh the weather outside is frightful
But Florida is delightful
There are lizards and bugs you know
but no snow, but no snow, noooo snow

I'm giving a bad hair warning
It's a humid foggy morning
there's a mosquito bite on my toe
but no snow, but no snow, noooo snow!

But I'll have the DOTD anyway!!

RICHARD, I'm afraid I'm on the sick list, too. Right now I have a sore throat that's hurting. Could I have a BIG cup of coffee with Bailey's. Tell Orc I'm too hoarse to yell at him!

**Karen** · 12-17-2009, 08:34 AM

Of Catherdana, I don't think I could "do" Christmas in Florida! Some years we don't have snow for the actual day - but there's always the possibility!

I think with all these sore throats we should turn that DOTD into a slushie!!

Hope you feel better, David!

Boy, do YOU have the right idea! A slushie would be perfect!

No virtual snow here, we got the real stuff last night - and quite a bit. A pity they ruin it by sprinkling salt on. I'd prefer they just cleared a path to walk on.

Every now and again, I would surely like to spend Christmas Eve in a bathing suit on the beach, drinking Pina Coladas (like we did in Dom. Rep. one time).
