Hey y'all...
Back from Oz,
My temp job is over......I have an upper resp infection....and I think I will make it.
I had a nice talk with the Scarecrow- we have so much in common! ;)
Anyway....I'll stoke up the fire and get things rolling here.....
Why is this place a mess....where is the cleaning crew? :eek:
I want to start with a ginger ale and a shot of something....anyone?
Ginger ale with orange juice - that's what Dad always fixed or us when we were feeling under the weather!
Me - after shovelling 4 + inches of "no accumulation" and coming home to a couple more, I'll take some warm mulled cider, please!
Welcome back! I hope you feel better. I heard of a neat drink on another web site called "Mein Gott's Blessing": coffee with a little chocolate, peppermint schnappes, and a dusting of cinnamon. That might be good for what ails ya!
Good to see you found your way back to the bar, Richard!!!
Just cherry vanilla coke for me and catnip tea for the kitties. :D
Has anyone seen the orc lately? :confused: :D
Richard, it's so good to see you back!!!! Were you easily amused???:D Sorry you are feeling under the weather and I think it's about time you sat down by the fire and sipped on something strong. How about hot rum....with emphasis on the rum. That should kill all those germs.
What's this about not liking fruitcake??? Now what would the Fruitcake Lady say about that??
Cheers to Gini who is vacationing in Boston for two weeks. Brrrrr!!!
Hi Momo!! Hi Karen!! Hi Smokey!!
Richard, may I please have a shot of Grand Marnier.....warmed up??? It's chilly here too but we sure don't have the snow that Karen has.
Cheers!!
Hi, Slick!!! (moff waves)
Fruitcake!!! Who doesn't like fruitcake. I love the stuff!!! I have ever since I worked in a bakery and got to kill the bottle of rum that was used on the cakes!!! :D

you again.
Fruitcake, no thanks. Anybody ever see "hard candy" being sold anywhere?
Used to be a holiday staple.
I don't think you got that from us, but don't send it our way (at least not yet) LH is suppose to come home tomorrow from OK and I have to be able to go pick him up at the airport.Quote:

As soon as I can get new batteries for Orc's remote he can tend the fire. RICHARD, when Orc comes over, I want you to just sit by the not taking care of it! Want me to play bartender for a while?Quote:

:D They have it in a special aisle with Christmas candy. It's in a can and called "Old Fashioned" candy. Guess they figured the PC police would get them if they called it Christmas candy any more! :rolleyes: :DQuote:
