Glad to know it wasn't just me who thought that. My funeral experience is pretty limited, and my mother HAD asked us to put her 2 secret recipes (poppyseed bread and seasoning salt) in the booklet for the funeral so she could keep her promise to everyone that they could have the recipes when she moved or died, but I didn't think that opened up the hotline for recipe requests. But it's nice to know that someone else views it as inappropriate, too.

Yeah, I guess she must have figured it was OK since those recipes were in the booklet, but like you said, it's not like she was at a wedding and the band was taking song requests!

I'm sorry...better luck next time! Darn postal service!!

You must have sent them Pony Express via @Wrangler-Rick.

If you can get it, the best way to watch the Godfather saga is to get the one that was edited and put in real time sequence when it aired on TV years ago. It started before the place where the original Godfather began and through to the end. It's easier to follow and is, in my opinion, much more enjoyable then the piece meal way. It does, however, take about 6 or 7 hours if I remember correctly.

Apparently it was aired on AMC in 2012 in HD, so I just missed it by a few years.

I make those pies, and over sugar the dickens out of the fruit.

Darn it, you're right. That's exactly what I did. Is that not reliable? Perhaps they were eaten on the way.

I wouldn't be surprised if he did!

I bet he'd deny it though!

It depends on if we get the package or not. If it's not booked and we can do the deal with the free dining, etc, then we'll stay at Caribbean beach. If not, then probably All-Star music resort.

We've stayed in a family suite at ASMusic twice, and loved it...!

She did. They were warm and smelled so good that I couldn't help myself.... slurp.

I mean, my horse ate them. Yeah that's right, I stopped at the roadside oasis and the horse ate them. Bad, bad, Horse!!!

That's where we were originally intending to stay. My daughter and I are really into music and my son loves it, too, though he's not really involved in MAKING music the way we are. But the deal I found is only for moderates and deluxes so I picked the cheapest of those. If it's already full for the dates we want, then we revert to plan A, ASM.

It's been shown, on and off, for a number of years. It'll be back! You might even be able to get it on Netflix or some like supplier or just get 2 & 3. Don't buy 3 though because you will never want to see it again.

I wear flip flop and never worry about my feet getting wet

Funny, I'm well-known here for being a flip flop guy, but, when we're comandoing the parks I wear tennis shoes. So much walking.
I actually hate all shoes and clothing.

Not me! Pickled stuff…yuck.

I'm with you there!

I quite agree, though one person came at me at my mother's funeral to ask for the recipe for the zucchini pickels. She wanted to be sure to get that recipe while she could, since we were planning to move here and she didn't want to miss out. I hardly thought my mother's funeral was the place to be asking me for recipes, but apparently they are REALLY good pickles. Then, because I ignored the request, (I found it a bit...inappropriate timing which did not make me want to help her out) she tracked down my aunt in another town to write to me to get the recipe. She was very determined, so I can only assume they were very good pickles.

Did you ever give her the recipe? You should make some and take a picture to taunt her. Just kidding.

So my hammock of about 4 years ripped the other day to the point I was afraid it was unsafe so hubby ordered me new one with next day delivery. Even though it is cloudy I'm trying to enjoy it. It has a different fit than my old one. I guess the dog and I will just have to adjust.
