Oh wow. That sounds interesting. I would never have thought of that but I can see how it would work. How did it turn out?

I hope Ok he took the whole batch to work LOL

I like unwrapped on the Cooking Channel. I loved going into different factories and learning how they made various popular foods.

I like that a lot too. Haven't watched it in a long time though.

Oh dear, sorry to hear that. I know what you mean--everything breaks at once.

We had number three, the electric knife broke while hubby was carving the turkey. I'm done now!

We are leaving tomorrow morning. We are actually spending the night in Minneapolis tonight so we don't have to wake up and drive super early since our flight leaves at 7am.

Hope you are arriving soon. Have lots of fun.

I plan to take a mental health day on Monday and go to Disneyland! So I'll post pics along with @ajrwdwgirl!

Two vacations, at once. I'm in!

Robert Irvine works on my last nerve. I'm not a fan of his blunt as it is scripted to be demeaning. We all say things here and there that could have been crafted to be direct but nicer but generally it is off the cuff. Script is just that, meditated nasty. I find his bluntness more important to ratings than to being a concerned with the people he has decided to help. How they ever overcome and recover from what he exposes publically is beyond me.

Giadia de Laurentis, gets on my nerves. Her smile seems so fake, along with a couple other things. Did I just say that?

When my kids were little we ended every trip, weather permitting riding the carousel in the MK. We took in the sights around us, walked through the castle and out the gate.

I love that tradition. Disney has a very beautiful carousel.

I'm pretty sure that T is for Tofu

You just reminded me of Everybody loves Raymond. The episode where they had a tofu turkey for Thanksgiving. So funny! Thanks @figmentfan423.

And you'd feel safer if they werent exposed?
some of the thing that Gordon Ramsay exposed in the restaurants he "helped" was terrifying.

I had to quit watching Gordon Ramsay, made me not want to eat out!

careful, polka dots might be involved too!

I thought about what I posted. I was hoping no one would put 2 and 2 together. Slip of the tongue!

One of my friends had a contract like that when he first graduated from college good first job in the field but they owned you. 24/7 It's amazing what some companies get away with

It was like that for hubby's whole career. He mostly retired early, from burn out.

Happy pot luck Friday. Yep today's the day all the guys my dh works with have to bring in a healthier version of whatever they bring in and they have to make it themselves. My dh made his coleslaw last night and he only bothered me 10 or 12 times about how to do it. It would have been faster and easier just to have done it myself I'm armed with antacid, pepto, and other assorted tummy meds. LOL BTW my dining room is a disaster Have a great day and has anybody heard from @MR FERRET?

No, I haven't heard anything. I'm really getting worried.

Good Friday morning to you all. Does anyone have any big weekend plans? I'm going to finish up Santa's shopping this afternoon when I'm done at the office. Then we are all going to go to a craft show this evening. Looking forward to it. Tomorrow should be a more relaxed day. One of the kids has a birthday party to attend but that's about it. Might go to the Farmer's Market in the morning and then just hang out.

TGIF!

Hubby and I are going out to eat with the kids and grandkids. Then starting our Christmas shopping. Buying cards to send. I'm hoping to get inspired about Christmas. It's coming faster than I want. Maybe it's because advertising for Christmas started so early this year.

You know me so well. We have had two snows and I'm done already.

You'd be hard pressed to find a television show that doesn't do what it does to get ratings, though. We all have different tastes when it comes to entertainment. That's why there's such a variety of shows.

That is so true. Thankfully though the overwhelming majority don't capitalize on ratings at the expense of others misfortunes. I put him in the same categories as Dr. Phil, Judge Judy and Maury Povich type of 'helping people.'

My opinion of those who promote themselves and do real good in helping people are folks like, Sam Simon, Jerry Seinfeld, Meryl Streep, Jami Gertz, Mel Gibson and George Lucas type of people who help themselves professionally all the while helping others.They help people without parading them before cameras and calling them out for their hardships or poor judgement.

I hope that's the last thing to go!
