The Chit Chat Chit Chat Thread

I settled for a peanut buster parfait and it was tasty, but while I was eating it I could see the sign for the truffle blizzard. It was mocking me.

So sorry.

DD put that on list of things to do over the next few days. Yum. Never had any ice cream salted yet.

Who says I don't cook?
I can fry an egg with the best of them!

With ketchup.

And milk, of course.

One sandwich is not quite enough.
One and a half, is three bites too many.

Yep, if I ate all those carbs and then chocolate milk I wouldn't be fitting in my shorts if summer ever comes.

 

[Gabe1]

Not just milk. Chocolate milk.

I'm not a big milk fan but chocolate milk, egg and ketchup. Not so much.

Remember to make sure they hold the blizzard upside down to show you how thick it is. If they dont, they are supposed to give you a free blizzard. At least that's what the national commercial said.

I hadn't heard this about the blizzard. I will have to remember it though as I plan to try for the salted caramel truffle blizzard again next week.

Believe it or not this started in Canadian Dairy Queens. It caught on in some Dairy Queens in the US and others not at all. Gotta remember some are Corporate owned and others like mine are tiny little franchises that don't have to comply with the oddities.

Anchovies?! Is it really good? My brother always ate his pizza with them.

I love fish. Anchovies not so much. I love pizza, not doing that to my pizza.

Not putting a stinky fish on this lovely.

I know we are all aging but you are a tad young for senior moments woman.

Ergo, the answer is: JenniferS says she doesn't cook.

 

[Gabe1]

I love them!
I always save a few on the side to finish the meal.

Well that is two now, you and my Mom.

We had so much fun but it was crowded North of the Boarder today, Good Friday and Spring Break, bonus we didn't get any snow or rain. Woot.

Thanks for the cheese, haven't had any from there in almost a year.

Who is this Boarder of whom you speak?

 

[Gabe1]

We have a LOT of microbreweries and wineries down here (yes, wineries here in Texas). Many of both, that have produced award-winning product.

Not familiar with what a 2-4 is...?

I have two friends that have opened Micro's here. One much better than the other. One the cheaper one (and not cheap) has won awards of best of class in the region. To me it is all the same, ick.

My DD loves these. Last year they didn't have as much caramel in them though-nor was the chocolate as creamy.
Hope they fixed that this year.

Based on the two bags Hubby and I polished off (without sharing with the kids), I'd say they did.
They were mighty fine.

Thankfully they are gone - as I have a projected back to work date.

 

[JenniferS]

I love that your Dad stays so active.

Yup.

 

[Gabe1]

Was this you tonight?

And you again?

Ha!

I just saw the upside down salted caramel Blizzard ad for the first time, about an hour ago.
I thought, "Dang, it's a good thing DQ is closed right now".

 

[JenniferS]

I'm not a big milk fan but chocolate milk, egg and ketchup. Not so much.

It's a Canadian thing.

Ahh the auto correct wizard strikes again. Well done.

 

[JenniferS]

I love fish. Anchovies not so much. I love pizza, not doing that to my pizza.

Not putting a stinky fish on this lovely.

Not overly crazy about fish. Not at all crazy about anchovies. Not so crazy about pizza either. You can have my share of all three.

Which is when?

 

[JenniferS]

Yowza, I just noticed that this thread will soon be hitting 1,000 pages!
Probably some time early tomorrow, presumably before I am even up if the Early Birds are active!

Whoever rolls us over, please make it epic!

 

[JenniferS]

Which is when?

Hubby's site (which I will help open) is set for May 9th.
My site is set for the 23rd.

Do not record these dates in pen! Trust me.

 

[JenniferS]

Okay, the water for my tea has boiled, and I've got a hot date with Dame Agatha.
Good night @Gabe1 and any other Peeps who may wander through.

P.S. - Don't forget about Post #20,000/Page 1,000 being EPIC!

ETA - Just did some math in my head - Post #20,000 and rolling over to Page 1,000 will not be the same post. Duh! Ergo - two chances to be epic. Don't let us down!
