Thursday 158 - GONE FISHIN'

[lbaker]

I wonder whose job it is to chop the heads and tails off the clams Aiah, sea's a bit choppy, best be coming in by the fire to study our realing and writhing. For what porpoise you ask? Mario, please stop giggling, it's hard to keep a straight face in front of you Kay, that picture is beautiful!

[slick]

Well, I guess everyone has gone fishin', including Lady. Come on Mario, let's get this place ready for the "tea". I'll get the pans out and the grill warmed up. We'll be cooking up a storm when they get back. Oh the silver and good china almost looks too good to eat from. Do we have to hold out our pinkies???

Hi Slick! I'm here! I hid when they were leaving, just couldn't face that cold, windy weather on a fishing boat. Wouldn't have minded if the weather had been like it was in Kay's picture, of course. I'll help with the tea. Do we have to eat cucumber sandwiches with that?

Sorry, slick!
I wasn't fishing I was dodging tornadoes!!!
We had two seperate tornado warnings this afternoon. Luckily, they both went south of our town. Double good for me because I slept through the first one!!!

We used to have a restaurant here that served catfish fresh from the muddy Marmaton river. They always served them with their heads on!! Yuckie Yuck Yuck!!!

When Dad would order catfish, I would cover the head up with a napkin so it wouldn't stare at us while it was eaten.

Oh MOFF, you really must move up here....no tornadoes, no storms, no earthquakes....oh yeah, you just got finished moving, sorry. At least rest those weary bones before you start packing up again.

Kay, Lady says there ain't nuttin wrong with a "dawg fish".

Smokey: I had to laugh as I spotted the line under your name. I have Alice's Restaurant on CD and listen to it quite often. Group W....**snicker**
"Kid, I want you to go and sit down on that bench that says Group W .... NOW kid!!"

You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant
You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant
Walk right in it's around the back
Just a half a mile from the railroad track
You can get anything you want at Alice's Restaurant

[momoffuzzyfaces]

Sorry, slick. NO MORE MOVES FOR ME!!!

THIS ONE BOUT KILLED ME!!!

(unless a tornado delivers me to your door, that is)

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

Cucumber samiches? No thanks. And toast points....never understood the point of toast points. I understand it's "tea" and all, but give me some real food. Food where my pinkie is put to work holding it instead of being stuck out like it's spastic or something. Sit with my ankles crossed? Bah! Flopped down in an easy chair is way more like it. Yeah....I'm a real classy lady.

So, what's for breakfast. English breakfast tea I would assume, but what kind of FOOD goes with the tea? .......can anyone tell I'm hungry? Don't know why, just had a nice big bowl of cheerios and it's only 9:30 am here, so I've got a few hours to go before lunch time.

Maybe another Coke with tide me over........

MOFF, glad you dodged another bullet. I sure hope all those nasty storms clear out though. Terry is headed back from Denver today in and tomorrow in the motorhome. He'll be going through Nebraska instead of Kansas, but still......motorhomes and tornados aren't a good combination.

[Killearn Kitties]

Oh I'm glad there's a taker for the cucumber sandwiches! I'll get slicing then.

Even little Jonah has some posh silverware to bring to the table! How sweet. Oh we are just so civilised this week!!

Slick, one can't make a proper tea with "pans" and a grill!! [silly woman]

Ha! You haven't seen me in the kitchen. Oh yeah, you have, but you haven't seen me in my kitchen. Pots, pans, grills, tea kettles all over the place. I really am a very messy cook....even when it comes to making cucumber sammies. MMMMMM, good job KK.

Since we are having tea, I think we should fit the part. I am quite peckish, right? How 'bout we sit and have a cuppa. Any chance of getting a fry up?? Beans on toast....or would that be toast points?? Hee, I feel so "Royal". OK Mario, out with the pinkie, now lift the teacup and take a sip and daintily put the cup back on the saucer. That's it, good boy. We're rocking now!!!

Oh excuse me, when sitting, a lady must cross her ankles at all times.

Edit: Whoa Richard......I think Gini has your glove back at her place if you want to give it a try!!!

[smokey the elder]

Well, since we were going to have tea, how about a Long Island iced tea?

Here's something of a fishy theme:

Fish heads, fish heads, roly-poly fish heads
Fish heads, fish heads, eat them up, yum!

I took a fish head out to see a movie, Didn't have to pay to get him in!

[Kfamr]

Just got back from fishing again...

Caught one fish... a DOG fish! No good, thrown back.
I'm thinking fast food for dinner tonight.
