Morning!
I cannot remember the last time I started a thread here, but came on to read and for the first time there wasnt one for today. So here I am!
Thanks again D and Lushy (and all others who read mods and the recipe thread) for the great appetizer recipes - they were a lifesaver last night! Had the whole office over and it went fantastic and everyone was oohing and aahing over your recipes. I just didnt tell them I got them from my internet friends from a drinking site....:H
I handled myself really well in spite of lots of alcohol floating around last night. Actually, I was too busy in the kitchen to think about it. I poured a glass of wine and then a lady picked it up and took it! I thought it was funny and probably the best thing. Hubby and I did sit down outside and have a glass of wine after everyone left, but then was so exhausted, we went straight to bed.
We are supposed to leave Thursday for a week in the Bahamas, but I'm getting really nervous about the weather down there.... "Noel" which has turned into a hurricane has left, but the 10 day forcast is calling for thunderstorms everyday and flight delays on the day we are leaving, so we are surfing around for a possible alternative.
OH -- I had the coolest thing happen yesterday!! We have the Blue Angels (for those who dont know about them... you can google it) here this whole weekend doing an Air and Sea show at the beach. Well they have been zooming through the skies all day yesterday practicing and flying down EXTREMELY low to the point of being scary, but I personally love it! Anyway, I was coming out of Target yesterday with both arms full of plants (Mums to decorate my front walkway) and there they came and swooped down so low I thought my eardrums were going to explode! I couldnt put my fingers in my ears because my arms were full, and I looked up and one of the Blue Angels (right above me mind you) did a hard bank and turned upside down and WAVED AT ME!!!!!! I just about dropped my plants and peed in my pants!! (I've always had a crush on all the Blue Angel pilots). I raced home and my husband and a lot of neighbors were all standing out in the road with their cameras and my husband immediately tries to impress me with what the Blue Angels did by swooping down over the houses, but his jaw fell open when I told him what happened to me! Anway... just had to share!
Beth is coming to stay with me tonight and she is doing a detailed IQ testing on my 9 y/o this afternoon (which is what she does for a living), and then we are going out to dinner and then to the Air Show tomorrow to see the Blue Angels! What a great weekend!!!
