Of course you'd be fine... you're not my age!

Our age!

 

[betty rose]

No, actually. Unless someone, somewhere considers any of the following a salad...
We had a few monster hot dogs after the walk (I don't know where they got these things from, but they were huge), then we had some cheese, crackers and meat (sorry, forgot to get a pic ) at the winery, then homemade chicken pot pie for dinner...!

Great minds think alike, we had homemade chicken pot pie for lunch. One of my favorite's when the weather gets cool.

No problem, I am always up for a party. I am a Bartender so I can officially serve the drinks.

I'm ordering a margarita, with a good tequila. Can you recommend one?

Edit:

Good grief!
I'm so far behind, I am, yet again, answering posts I already have...!!!!!

As long as it's like's we don't care!

Wow!

 

[betty rose]

I honestly CANT.
I have my grandmah to worry about, now my mother? then you enter the mess with my 2 jobs x_x
Aint easy!
I do not have eyes nor time to be behind her all the time x_x
Plus she randomly goes to work on crafts when she cant sleep. Thus I cant be checking on her 24/7

Can she knit or do crafts without super glue? That might be safer. I watch T.V. when I can't sleep, it's so boring I go right back to sleep.

 

[betty rose]

She is way better today, she still complains of feeling "stuff". Which is no surprise. The glue kinda scratched her eyeball delicate skin.
Its going to take up to 48 hours for that to stop, then she needs to keep putting drops to prevent infection.

Again, I'm so sorry.

Will do, we're leaving tomorrow to drive to a bigger town to take the plane.
No idea why this week the direct planes from my town are 2X the price.

But c'est la vie!

5 hours of driving in very sinuous and mountain roads with huge cliffs with single lanes.. not a fan.
At least its way better.. before we used to take 9 hours as there was no highways on most of the road. (imagine having to drive 600Km of pure turns over high mountains along with heavy trucks/buses in single lane roads(1/1 roads).

I do not like driving! :O

Colorado was like this 40 years ago. Hubby pulled a tent camper behind the car. It was crazy when we met a car coming toward's us.

Have a fun evening everyone. I hope I didn't run everyone off. I'm off to watch food shows. It will make me hungry...so I'll need a snack. The joy's of senior days, until the Dr. chimes in.....

We have fiber optics. It's regulated, who can use it...it's shared between Comcast, AT@T, and Century Link.

I dont mean backbones.. I mean any service provider can provide you with a direct fiber optic access?
Not cable or DSL, I mean real fiber to your home.

her crafts involve wood and fancy paper which cant glue well unless its super glue.
She still does knit but not much anymore.
And she actually cant sleep if she is watching TV.

We had our own close encounters too.
Including when my dad's car suddenly lost all power and drifted a bit.. then there was this giant double trailer truck coming our way.
The truck could barely miss us (more to the right and he would have gone to the abysm of the mountain side, a little more to the left, would have hit us square ).
The truck was heavily damaged on the axes and gears (lost 3 giant wrench-like axes that hold the trailer tires together in pairs.

huge nope nope nope!!!

Sounds good (but I substituted chicken for tofu in my head when I thought about eating it). I don't know if I have ever had hot and sour soup. I was looking at a review for the Dim Sum brunch at Morimoto's yesterday and that was one of the items featured and it looked good and like something I would eat.

psst-it has tofu in it there

by the way...the Peking Duck is beyond awesome. Quack! Quack!

We had the Peking Duck when we went in June, it was hubby's birthday meal. The brunch is new, and I was hoping to sneak it in but it just won't work. The duck was good, but I really liked the ribs and the pork belly tacos.

Even though we aren't doing a fish extender for the cruise I thought it would be fun to have a decoration outside our door, so I decorated these stockings. They will have our names on them when I find the puffy paint. I may have bought a few little treats to put in them for hubby.

Good morning I think I'm finally down to 2 craft/sewing projects to get done before the holidays get here. With any luck I'll have time to make my Christmas and NYE outfits But then again it will involve luck

Do you mean dim sum as in American steamed or fried dumplings or traditional small plates? Either way

A number of times (although not recently) we've had Dim Sum in the restaurants in our city's Chinatown area. It's the delicious little dumplings that they have on rolling steam carts--that's the Dim Sum I'm referring to.
