**run run** **pant pant**
Ah Ha!!! You took a shortcut....that's not fair. I see Catland and the gang got a good headstart on the cleaning last week so I'll go tidy up the BR's and mop the floor and bar again.
What the special this morning Laurie???
hmmmm, lemme think about it. I was at a meeting in Houston a few years back and had a Sunday brunch where they served eggs benedict but made with crab meat instead of Canadian bacon. I make great poached eggs. Maybe you could supply the Canadian bacon and I'll supply the Chesapeake Bay crab meat and we can offer a choice. Might be a bit heavy for you West Coasters this early so I think I'll fix up some mixed berries and fruit for starters. Oh wait. Did you mean special as in food or drink :o :eek: Suppose I just mix up some Bloodies while we decide. :cool:
*pant* *gasp* - no one told me this was a race today.
no reason why we can't toss some dungeness crab into the mix... and some tillamook cheese. OK, I've done my part.
Now we just need someone to come up with a DOTD and we'll be set. In the meantime we can get started on this pitcher of bloodie's. Slick, did you get all of your stuff out of lost & found from last week?
He-he-he, I'm thirsty too :)
I would love a summer drink, winter is not my favorite season, so whatever drink is DOTD, if it's a summer drink, fill in my glass.
One of my friends' wife was diagnosed with colon cancer yesterday, I am still in shock - she's only 39. I'll drink for her to get well.
Special as in "drink" :D :D but I'll take food as well. I'll just run to the butcher and get some real lean Canadian bacon...be right back. In the meantime save a Bloody for me.
Good Morning Catland: I see it didn't take you long to figure out the bar was open. (It's all my fault.....). Crab and cheese sounds good.
YOOOOOOO HOOOOOOO....RICHARD....WHERE ARE YOU........????? Put that axe down and get over here and have a BM. Are you still on vacation???
V&J: so sorry to hear about your friend's wife. Maybe you could start a thread in General section and get all the PT prayers started for a recovery. 39 is too young to be plagued with such a disgusting disease.
Laurie, I LOVE Eggs Benedict made with crab meat! It is a Charleston specialty!!!! :)
I just ate breakfast, but I'm a little thirsty. Any recommendations?
Logan, I can just picture us sitting at an outside cafe in Charleston having crab eggs benedict while sipping a mimosa at Sunday brunch. V&J, that mimosa sounds rather summery, how about joining us? Also, Slick may be right about posting about your friend in General. Never underestimate the power of PTalkPrayers, just ask my D-inLaw Jenny. Speaking of Slick... boy, she will go to any lengths to get out of BR cleaning duty - bacon shopping indeed (maybe for Kevin Bacon :rolleyes: )
Mmmm....those eggs benedict sound wonderful! Please, please please pass some this way! (can you tell I'm starving, and it's only 11:25 am here, 'nother 1/2 hour until lunch.)
I'm going to suggest Teguila be added to the DOTD this week. Read on to see why. :D
Tequilla Christmas Cookies
Christmas Cookie Ingredients:
1 cup water
1 tsp baking soda
1 cup sugar
1tsp salt
1 cup brown sugar
lemon juice
4 large eggs
1 cup nuts
2 cups dried fruit
1 bottle Jose Cuervo Tequilla
Directions:
Sample the Cuervo to check quality Take a large bowl, check the Cuervo again, to be sure it is of the highest quality, pour 1 level cup and drink. Turn on the electric mixer.....Beat one cup of butter in a large fluffy bowl. Add 1 tsp of sugar......Beat again. At this point its best to make sure the Cuervo is still OK , try another cup....just in case
Turn off the mixerer thingy. Break 2 leggs and add to the boel and chuck in the cup of dried fruit. Pick the frigging fruit off the floor...Mix on the turner. If the fried fruit gets stuck in the beaterers just pry it loose with a drewscriver. Sample the Cuervo to check for tonsistticity.
Next, sift two cups of salt, or something. Who giveshz a sheet. Check the Jose Cuervo. Now shift the lemon juice and strain your nuts. Add one table. Add a spoon of sugar, or somsfink. Whatever you can find. Greash the oven. Turn the cake tin 360 degrees and try not to fall over. Finally throw the bowl through the window, finish the Jose Cuervo and make sure to put the stove in the dishwasher.
Cherry Mistmas!!
*jumps up, slams door shut so people wont freak out because Laurie's getting wiggy again* OMG T&P that's priceless :D :D :D
I've decided on some goooood egg nog. Time to get into the Christmas spirit! Who'll join me?

Hi everyone.....I am back.....:eek:
vacations never last long enough and they do not give you enough.....
Let's start with the BM's and eggs benedict..
Wolf,
Egg nog for you!!
Done...
Just gonna get back into the swing of things here....
It's good to be back.
V&J,
Best wishes to your friend.
Laurie, when you're ready to join me in Charleston, say the word! I love any excuse to visit that beautiful city (about 3 1/2 hours from here). :)
I'm going to "tell" on my husband a bit here, but this past weekend, my brother was married, and my mother (bless her heart), suggested that her 3 grandchildren spend the night at her house and she wanted the adults in a hotel, so she and my dad paid for rooms for Scott and me, and my sister and her husband. Scott snuck in a bottle of champagne for us, but by the time we had a chance to drink it on Friday night, we were so sleepy!!!! :o He got orange juice on Saturday morning and made Mimosas. I thought that was the sweetest thing!!! :) Of course, I love him dearly anyway, but anytime he does something special like that, I love him even more!!!! :)
Mimosas and Eggs Benedict with crab sound marvelous to me!!! :)
As long as you're here Richard can you make the next pitcher of Bloodies? My hands are a mess from picking crabs. Look at this attachment thing. I've seen some similiar ones but especially like this one. (hope it works, I'm not very good at this stuff)

Someone look in the lost & found for Gini :rolleyes:
Could I have an Eggnog? Yummy! :D
Richard, we missed you last week!
Lets get the party started!:D
I brought brownies!:D
Hey, where are you Slick?:cool:
Hello everyone! Just tell me what to do and I'll help clean up.
T & P - that is soooo funny! I laughed out loud sitting here at my desk. In fact I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes. People are looking at me strangely.
I think I'll have an eggnog, too. But add just a touch of brandy to mine. If I going to be festive - I'll be really festive.
T&P - that's great. Good ol' Jose. he was a friend of mine.
WELCOME BACK RICHARD - hope the place isn't in too much disarray. We've got the papers for the puppy - don't worry about lost and found or what happened to the ceiling fan and the knickers.
Time to start a fire in the fireplace?
Slick's bringing home the Bacon (or so she says ;) ) Logan, your hubby definately sounds like a "keeper" :D does he have an older brother? That's single? hmmmmm? ;)
Could I have one? :D Must taste great with egg nog!Quote:

No brother, Laurie, sorry!! :o And I'm hanging on to him for dear life!!! We'll be celebrating our first anniverary on Dec. 21. :) :)
We had our first snow of the season last night. Only 8 inches or so but with ice underneath it's enough to make a BIG MESS!
Could I have a hot chocolate with 3 big marshmallows. (sorry, gang, I tried the small ones, they just don't do it for me):D
Laurie,
great attachment!!
amoore,
one Eggnog.
DONE!
robin,
spiked eggnog!
DONE!
Catland....
thanks for finding the 'lost and found' I had misplaced it:eek:
Yes, a fire is in order.....Lots of wood put up last week!!
DONE!
Gini?
Gini?
Let me go look out back......
can someone check under the pool table?
Oh yes, These brownies go good with any thing.:D...... Amoore hands a brownie to wolfsoul.:cool:
I'm so glad to see my friends here. :D
Whoops! I just dicovered my frog sipoweitz is in my pocket!:eek:
You forgot my hot chocolate!
I am so ignored around here! (pout pout). Guess I'll go watch cars get stuck on the hill outside my window!:eek:
Holy Moly, you guys sure can party!!!! Here's the bacon (and not Kevin.....eeeewwwwww).
Welcome Wolfsoul, nice to see your smiling face here. :) :) Just make sure you check on the brownie ingredients. Sometimes they slip in a surprise :eek:
Hi Richard: "back into the swing of things" **snort** :D :D All that axe swinging has gotten to you.
Logan: what a lucky lady you are. Some of us are still waiting......I'd be asking the same question as Laurie..:D
Laurie: I just love that link. Thanks. As far as the BR's are concerned, this Porcelain Princess won't stand for anything less than spotless....I thought I did a good job :p
Amoore: Good morning - at least it is for me. Where's your husband?? Was last week's dancing too much for him??:D
Robinh: Solution is to close the office door. I've had to do that plenty of times when reading Richard's posts.
Hi MOFF: here's your hot chocolate.
T&P: you sound as if you've made those cookies before
:eek: :eek:
Not me...I'll take Uncle Jack or Cousin Jim anytime.
She's not here Richard. Maybe she took the puppy for a walk. Can I please have a Spanish Coffee???Quote:

BTW I'd like to toast Catland for taking over the bar duties last week when you were "otherwise occupied". She did a great job. Thanks Catland.
Speaking of brownies.....did anyone happen to see Frazier last night? Niles was going to rebel for a night. He had it all lined up where Roz would supply him with a "brownie" - you know, one of those yummy "funny" brownies we had here a few weeks ago? Well, somehow their Dad ended up eating the brownie, not knowing it was a "funny" brownie, and he ended up acting really goofy :D Niles, in the meantime, thought he had eaten the "funny" brownie and was acting weird, and the two of them together was hilarious. :D :D
Anyway, if you didn't see it, it's definitely one to watch for in the reruns. :D
So, who mentioned brownies? I'll have one, and a bit of eggnog too please. :D
I AM SORRY!Quote:

I couldn't have done it without such a great group of people to serve to. I'm still cleaning up from the spilled pitcher of Pointsettias though.:eek: and I'm so staying away from the lost and found. There's a strange smell coming from there.:rolleyes:
Thanks Richard, Yummy eggnog!
The brownies I make only have pecans in them. :cool: he,heh,he!
I missed that Frazier run! I bet that was funny! I like that show too.:(
Mahayana is still missing his shoes from dancing so much. He is having a hard time getting here in his bare feet.:p
Thanks for the tip, but if it's in there I think I'll just leave it. I've heard rumors about THAT place! YUCK! What IS in there?:eek:Quote:

Would love to shut office door, but they don't let me have one. I'm a cubicle sitter - so if I get the giggles, everyone knows! Only execs get doors here.
Brownies? Someone said brownies? Funny or not - I LOVE chocolate. May I have one please? And another egg nog? Thanks!

I thought the world of you before but you let it slip that your fancy gets tickled at work.....in a cubicle, no less....:eek:
A brownie and a nog for you!
DONE!
Believe me you don't want to know. Last week I ventured in to try to find my socks and just about passed out from the smell. I rummaged around but when I found this "unhealthy-looking" pair of boxer shorts I make a quick exit stage left.Quote:

One down, one to go....
(We really need a stressed smilie face added to our list!)
Hi Zippy: take a seat by the fire and rest your weary bones. Have you seen Gini anywhere??? She seems to be AWOL....
