5 days until Friendship Day.

Cool, there is a God. I haven't stepped foot in a McDonalds in over 20 years now. It amazes me how they're so popular when their food is so c.r.a.p.p.y.

But their french fries are to die for, sometimes literally.

 

[Gabe1]

Darn. I missed it...

Well there is still a few minutes left for today, it is National Scotch Day!

A little Laphroaig for you??? I'll pour one for you for a night cap!

Some of my favorite hummus is Basil Pesto Hummus and Sun Dried Tomato Hummus.

The roasted garlic is good too just plan to stay away from people for the rest of the day as a courteous gesture.

 

[seahawk7]

Must be something wrong with me--I rather like lumpy potatoes!!

Me too. I also like lumpy cream of wheat.

 

[seahawk7]

Well, I did like the fries (until I found out they used oil with beef flavoring) and apple pies, but never liked any of their burgers.

I did not know that about their oil. Thanks, maybe that will keep me away. I need to be deterred.

If there is another thunderstorm in the middle of the night that wakes my almost 2 year old baby boy and scares him I think I am going to lose my mind.

I used to buy the original Rayban Wayfarers back in the day for $40.
Last time I checked they were $140...$180 for the polarized version.
The cheapies have been doin' me just fine for years now, but, I'd sure like another pair of those Wayfarers again, someday...!

I have two pairs of RayBan, one in my car and one that I walk Wally with. I take good care of them both and they were gifts, one from my Dad and one from my Sis. I really can tell the difference. Good polarized glasses really to cut the glare which is great while driving. I have a pair of polarized transitional glasses too that I take to the pool and other places 'cause they have a bifocal built into them. They are great for that but they don't really get dark enough for my liking. I tend not to wear them much cause they take to dang long to transition back to clear.

Waterboy was the first movie my ex took me to.

Sympathy like

 

[seahawk7]

Well, I dont know about that.. but the only thing I order from McDonalds is their McNuggets.
Kentucky no longer sell theirs and their popcorn is mostly skin :O

I loved their nuggets back in the day.

 

[seahawk7]

You'll miss these days. Trust me.

Lady you are speaking the truth

Oh I remember those days. Sympathy. My kids rarely woke to thunder but one of my two golden retrievers, well she wasn't a fan. One particular bad storm during the night was horrid, the house was rattling. One kid, two kid, dog one, then dog two all jumped in bed with us and stayed. I never allowed my kids to stay in bed with us, never wanted to start that but I'd go stay with them on the rare occasion they were scared. That night there were 6 heartbeats in our bed all night. Squishy.

Same response from my dog! (He acts all tough, except when there's a thunder and lightening storm!)

Where Walt, well he just snores right on through the storms. He ain't got time for that.

 

[catmom46]

Yep, watched tons of H-B back in the day, as well...!

Hong Kong Phooey! I used to love that one. Sort of the dog version of Pink Panther.

What's the one with the pink car, just right of Hanna-Barbera? I don't recognize it.

 

[catmom46]

Well, you could also buy a Grey alien mask.

If that doesnt work.. there is always the Twilight movies "vampire" look.

Nothing better than scare them with your magical brightly paleness

I laughed at that part of the movie. Yes, I admit I've seen it. Maybe multiple times now. If Jennifer can like Titanic, then I can have this.

 

[Gabe1]

Seems your doggy has some DNA from Garfield.

Ha! My DD works from home half of her day and half in her office. Today she worked from home all day as she has to be on the road tomorrow. When she is at home she'll sometimes call Walt and toss him a pillow. She often talks to people on phone (head set computer) well apparently today Walt objected.

This article should deter both of you: http://www.collective-evolution.com...ds-chicken-mcnuggets-sparks-a-massive-recall/

I know, but the only ones I've seen over here.. are restaurant sized processors.. and they still require squeezing via a palette. (I trained and worked as cook and have a Diploma in french food from Le Cordon Bleu)

They don't sell Cuisinarts where you are?

I love Christmas, but in July is a bit much for me.

It's a bit much for me anytime before Thanksgiving!
