As for weird habits...did I mention that I am a freezie addict? I have to have at least 1 full freezee every day lol it makes me so happy!
Also...I have to check the mailbox every time I go into my house or come out of it (pass by it) no matter what!
aiiiieee
Hi everybody! How are you all doing? Hope youare are feeling good this day!
A cup of coffee sounds good this morning.
Willie:)
Oooh, good brunch, good coffee and Baileys, good company - heaven!!
Oh, Laurie! Salmon and eggs is making my mouth water. My boss does have a little bit of a heart. He let most of us go home early after our jobs were finished to beat the heat and humidity. BTW, any more Bailey's left?
Loads left, David! Did you think I had finished it all? :eek: Would you like some ice with yours?
Karen, I'll have some ice with it! Today in Pittsburgh it will be 90 degrees F. with the humidity at 88% That's HOT!Quote:

Just make sure it's not any of Richards lime ice. :eek: Let's save that for the slushies ;) Or iced CNT, I bet that would be gud :cool:
Poor thing! It was sticky and roasting here up until yesterday morning, but not any more. I'll put ice in yours, but have mine neat!
So you have an unexpected holiday this afternoon?
Iced catnip tea! Good idea. I will take three of those and give the girls a treat.
Nikki & Daisy are feeling it too! I'll take two iced CNTs for them!
Happy Thursday all!
My kitties are begging for iced cat nip tea too. It was 79 when I got up at 5:30 this morning. That was our low. They do say we should get a small cool down and maybe some rain later today. I'm ready!
By the way, where is miss gini?
Too hot to eat. I'll just fix a lime sherbet float. I'll share!:D
Anyone remember where we stashed the ice cream maker last summer? NO, don't try to tell me it's in the L&F... I ain't gonna fall for THAT one again ;) I love sherbet MOFF! Lime, orange, raspberry.... all flavors :cool: oooooo I know! Remember we had Creamsickles as DOTD once last year. They were YUMMMY!!
MMMmmm Ice cream sounds good!
Howdy all, just stopping in and taking a break from a busy day. You'd think right before a holiday people would be winding down!!
Two CNTs and good ale for me :D
Oh btw, there is absolutely nothing wrong with being a trekkie ;)
Hey there, just checking in for a bit before carrying on with my busy day.
Can I please get a double BM??? Got a very important phone call to make. ;) :D
I'm like Slick yesterday...I need alcohol! I am so bored out of my mind it's ridiculous! I have plenty of work to do, but I don't want to do any of it! I have so much to do at home and here I sit wasting my time at work. :rolleyes: Not to mention that it's a be-u-tee-ful day outside!
Anyway, I'll just take this pitcher of slushies and go mope in the corner so I don't ruin anyone else's day. :rolleyes:
*runs over to sit by phone* ;)
I have been lurking here for a LONG time, and finally found an appropriate "cover" being a chemist and all:
Two hydrogen atoms meet. One says "I've lost my electron," The other
says, "Are you sure?" The first replies "Yes, I'm positive."
:p
Aaaaaaaaargh!!! :D :D :D ... or would a GROAN be more appropriate? :D
Are you back Laurie, or are you still waiting for the phone to ring? MINE RANG!!!!!!! :D :D :D :D :D
:mad: no call, well.. there could have been :o I just walked in the door *sheepishly* OMD I mentioned sheep again didn't I :eek: ennywho Karen, I have a devious plan.. heh heh heh Also, it occured to me that two weeks from RIGHT NOW I will have "Lauries" Chesapeake Bay crab cake fixin's sitting on a platter in Gini's fridge..setting up, just waiting to be cooked up! EEE DOGGIES! BRING IT ON PILGRIMS :D
edit here..
Gee Karen, aren't you the one that said I "talk funny"? Dahling, you ain't seen nothin' yet;)
Now THAT is humor! :DQuote:

I feel your pain T & P...it was like that yesterday. Today I've been busier than a one legged man in a sack race *sighs* I am glad it is quitting time around here.
One more slushie please, and can you pass some crab cakes this way?
bartender? One of everything you got.....
I guess I better get pouring.
I'll get it for you Richard. DONE!
After all....I just have to rub it in.....my holidays officially start right NOW! :D :D
...but if that's the case, why do I need to work tomorrow on a stat???? :confused: They always pile it on when they know your leaving for vacation....
EFF WORK......LOOK AT ME!! At 5:30 tomorrow I go on vacation.
The Tour de France starts on saturday, the Nascar race is on sat night...the space probe is set for 10:50 on sunday night...BASEBALL ALL WEEKEND.....I have money, health and some fun to be had.....
DRink up everyone!!!!:D
Whoa, Richard....that's quite a weekend. Have you been to Costco to buy the booze yet?? ;) :D
A little late - but it is still Thursday here in sunny CA.
Weird habits - my first thought was no, none that I can think of, but then I read about the way you put your money in your wallet and it was Oh Oh - I do that too. But the Big Bills go in the Back!!
I also never throw money into my purse loose. It always has to be neatly put away - even the change. Ever see people who wad up their money and pull it out of their pocket or purse?
How do they ever know how much they have?
There was another weird one too - guess it was parking in a space straight. Funny - I never thought about it until you mentioned it.
Now - got that off my chest - can I have a large pitcher of slushies.
Mario - why are you tugging on my arm? Oh, you want me to go swimming with you - o.k.
Looks like Richard is set for the weekend.:D
That salmon sounds soooo good. But I guess I'm a tad late for breaky.:( No worries though, I'll just make up some spicy salmon cutlets for everyone.:D
Spicy Australian Salmon Cutlets -
Ingredients:
6 Australian Salmon cutlets 3-4cm thick
2 tablespoons virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons white flour
3 tablespoons curry powder
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespsoon tumeric
1 tablespoon paprika
chopped parsley
lemon wedges
soy sauce
· Mix flour, currypower, brown sugar, tumeric, and paprika.
· Pat dry cutlets with towelling and coat with mixture until covered.
· Heat pan on high and add oil. When oil starts smoking, reduce heat to medium.
· Fry cutlets, turning after 5 min.
· Cook until golden brown.
· Serve with soy sauce, and lemon wedges and a bed of steamed jasmine rice.
A bottle of semillion or even a traminer will go down with this a treat.
:D
Smokey, you sound suspiciously like my old science teacher from high school:rolleyes:
"Live long & prosper";)
Wow - are you making those for us Trev?
You have my mouth watering!
Absolutely.:) Done on a BBQ, with a tossed salad, they are just the best.
That sounds perfect for our Independence Day cookout. You won't be upset if I leave out the curry on my cutlet will you? Can't abide the smell. Maybe instead of paprika I'll use Old Bay. As you can see, my cooking is haphazardly based on ideas. I have a feeling you can "get down" with that Trev :D Stellar year for crabs on the Chesapeake! YEAAAAA!
edit: today musical program will be in honor of our dearly beloved Canooks - HAPPY CANADA DAY! Canada Oh Canada! I hope Joni Mitchell is OK with everyone. Isn't Van Morrison from Canada? Oh well, he's good to listen to today anyway. HAPPY DAY SLICK!
Don't know if he's from Canada, but doesn't he sing Gloria?Quote:

Gloooooria G-L-O-R-I-A Gloo-oooria
Not one of my favorite songs, but it is one of Terry's and everytime it comes he blasts it and sings at the top of his lungs! :rolleyes: :D I know the Doors do a version too, but his favorite version is done by Van Morrison.
'Morning everybody! Congratulations to you lucky bums who are on vacation - I'm so jealous! But I'm not going to let it get me down becacause today is Friday and we do have a 3 day weekend ahead of us - yipee!!!! 3 whole days to bond with the new motorhome. ;)
So, how 'bout we start off the Independence Day weekend with some red, white and blue? Pancakes made with blueberries and strawberries topped with whipped cream? Sounds rather decadent....but yummy. :D
My favorite Red, White and Blue treat is Angel Food cake topped with blueberries, strawberries and whipped cream! RW&B pancakes this morning and RW&B treats all day! OH MY, Mario just swooned in rapture :D
Oh Debbie, you just cracked me up mentioning pancakes.
I think Slick will laugh hard too...........................
I think this calls for a p/m.
BWAAAAHHHAAAAAHAAAA Are we now returning to the original subject matter? "Weird Habits" :D :D :D
slick,
I don't belong to Costco......after the fun I had in the checkout line they won't let me in anymore.
I am the kinda guy that buys everything at once....
THAT make for interesing conversations in the store..
Didi I mention that Pink Floyd is tomorrow too?
Laurie....
Stellar year for CRABS???
THat must mean there is an upward trend in the employment numbers.....especially the working gals....:rolleyes: :D
No crab quiche for you Mr Smarty Pants :p
AHHHHH!!!
We had rain last night!!! Can you believe it? It's almost 30 degrees cooler today than yesterday. You can bet I'm enjoying myself!!!! I almost feel cold!!! :D
Got the fixins for chili cheese dogs for the weekend. Wouldn't be the 4th without them. (plenty of antacid too!)
Hey, why is Mario passed out on the floor? :eek:
I have a Costco card. I haven't been kicked out yet.
Debbie - I'd love some of those pancakes.
Hmm, weird habits...other than the usual general anal-ness from being an analytical chemist...here's one from work. I can't run samples if someone else's samples are in the tray. I need to put them aside! (How dorky can you get??:p )
Pancakes, yay!! I'll take some!
Remus get out of my blueberries! *Remus actually likes fruit...how's that for wierd?*
So long as we're on the subject of wierd habits, how about sharing some wierd habits your furkids have?
My kitty kats have no weird habits, just like their meowmy. ;) :p :D
STE - congratulations on the full-time status! I think that calls for a round of slushies. How about some red, white and blue slushies? Sounds yummy! :D
MOFF, we got rain two nights ago and it's first cooling off now. Yes, stepping out the door this morning was like taking a breath of fresh air - literally! :D Hot/humid is supposed to return on Monday though - blech. :rolleyes:
DJ, my mom's cat eats musk melon! It's the one and only thing he'll actually beg for. But he's just plain ol' weird all around. ;) :D
