Hi Colleen
Read my post to Gail on the dinner- it will not be made again….LOL Too bad, because it looked so good when they did it, and I thought it would be good.
I want to ty that chicken dish too. As the vegie is separate, it woud work over here.
Gary loves murder She Wrote. We are watching all the Post office. dead letter shows- cannot remember the name of the show….LOL We love that series. In the summer they have a nice one too that we watch every Sat night.
I saw that mother on YV here, when she grabbed her son, and took him home. I wish more mothers would do that. It is so hard to hear of all the violence every day. I get so worried for the grands growing up in this world.
How is Aliza doing? Are you going this week to see her?
Are you getting that awful storm they are talking about?
Hope you are having a good day!
AdeleGail, and everyone……..
You are going to love this one!
Bobby put the meatloaf together, and caramelized the onions. I hid the cheese, under the recipe, until he put it on. When the meatloaf was served, Gary promptly, tore his apart, and pulled out all the onions. he only ate the meat, with that miserable scowl on his face. I have to say, if the rest of us liked the meatloaf, he would not be walking today…..LOL
It was a little dry- Bobby thinks he cooked it a little too much, because he uses the meat thermometer, and it was not registering properly because of the onions inside. Now you would have thought it was delicious, with the beef, sausage and onion together. I think the onions absorbed the jute from the meat- they got juicy, and the meat got dry. Had that not happened, we may have liked it more. On the other hand, maybe the onions needed to be even more crispy….who knows. It will not be made again, and Gary will live to see another dinner…..LOL
I got so disgusted, I am not going to make the Quiche. Not worth the food fight.
I was the opposite. I had such a good time in school. I always had everyone laughing, even the Nuns. They laughed, as they sent me to the Monsignor’s. As an only child, school was socialization for me. I HATED snow days, as I had way more fun in school. I was a cheerleader. We had only one team, as our school was so small, we only had enough boys for hockey. All the boys played, because the team was so small. We NEVER won a game. I would try to make them all laugh, sometimes it worked, and sometimes it did not. The poor boys were demoralized. they always got creamed. It was kind of sad, but they tried their hardest. Our school had 32 kids to a class, so we had a total of about 126 for the entire high school. There was nothing you could do, that was not seen by the Nuns….LOL
One night my Dad went to the parent teacher meeting. he came home very red. he said he was embarrassed, because Sister Margaret said because of me, the entire Geometry classes grade point average dropped 10 points. So, I said……”Dad, you should be proud, I am a leader.” THAT did not go over too well. It was also the year that Sister Margaret stopped talking to the entire class- she only wrote on the board. She was on strike. Of course, that made me chuckle even more. I honestly do not remember how her strike ended. Then, in college I got straight A’s. Once in a great while, I would beget a B+Oh….forgot to tell everyone this……Marissa was on the Dean’s list for her second term in school. It was in the local paper. God bless her, she did not know. She said, “I was wondering about that”. Their grades are all sent via emails, so nobody but Marissa sees them. I told her to check the emails better, it should be on them if she makes the Dean’s list again, which I hope she does. I am so proud of her.
Hope everyone is having a good day! It is going to be 50 here today.
AdeleLove those graphics, Gailster- I am here!!!!

Hi Colleen
That is funny! I am doing the meatloaf today. I had to pass Bobby a note, saying to keep Gary in the living room when I put the meatloaf together, so he doe snot see the provolone cheese. Instead of layering in some arugalla, we are doing a little parsley. If he sees the cheese, that is it. What he does not see, he does not reject. Also, instead of layering the cheese, so you see it when you cut it, I am going to break it up a little- he will think it is the caramelized onions….LOL LOL
that is awful about that mother and child. How devastating for them, and the entire community. I cannot stand when those things happen. Children have the right to feel safe in their homes, and communities. That makes me sick. I swear, if I were younger, and could walk better, I would start a committee of people to go into these areas, and stand there while the kids play in the street, and go to school, to give them all a message that people have had enough, and these families need to be protected. I wish I had the physical ability to do that.
We watched Hallmark last night. We both love those movies. They all end with a good ending, and with all going on around us, we all need that. The Hallmark channel is like Quacker to watch….LOL
I hope that guy does not make you and Ron crazy. Maybe Gail can send her crazy bird to torture him!
It is warm here today. I went to get my hair cut this morning, before it gets colder again. It was so nice, it made you think it was time to go to the nursery for plants….LOL
AdeleGail and Colleen
That is awful about the lots being sold off next to your property line. Something like that happened to us, after we got this house. We are at the end of a cul de sac. Across it was a huge farm, and the Town said nobody could build there for 100 years. Well, the farmer died, the kids didn’t pay the taxes, and the Town sold the farm as buildable lots. We have pretty big hoses on this street, and the ones over there are huge- they go for around 800,000, and up. All are built on the 1/2 acre requirement for this Town. Not a lot of space for a house that size.
Gail you are hysterical. Have you ever run into your teachers, when you got older? I was a riot in high school. I was always sent to the Monsignor’s office. We had Dominican Nuns. We got to know each other really well. LOL
AdeleHi colleen
Oh- I thought you were going to watch Aliza this weekend. But, it is something to look forward to.
What a shame about McDonalds. I love their oatmeal, and the yogurt parfait. Not to mention the McFlurry’s….LOL
the Chew was really good this week. I copied 4 recipes. The 2 for meatloaf- one you will see form the Friday show that Mario did, and the chicken schnitzel, and the quiche. I will try the meatloaf one first, as long as Bobby can get the sausage meat this week at the store.
I do not like the CNN or Fox news either. I hate all the doom and gloom, and everyone is out to get us way of thinking. It gets depressing. The regular news channels are enough. I get so sad when I see people get killed. the level of violence is going through the roof. I feel very bad t for all the unfortunate people who have to live in areas where there are daily shooting, etc. Kids an mothers should not have to live like that. That is the most important problem I feel we face as Americans. The level of poverty and violence in the cities and towns.
In the final election, I will vote for the best person for President, not necessarily my party of choice. You have to use your head in those elections. My mother said I always vote for the losers….LOL
Gary loves bacon. Of course, it would have to go with eggs and at least toast. You know all his food rules.
I hope you are not listening to the news again…….maybe you need to get a set of ear plugs. God help us, with what these men do every day.
Hetaher is coming over for a visit later, and we will have tea. So, I better get moving and do the floor swiffering…..LOL
AdeleHi Gail
Oh yes, Gary is a challenge, to say the least. God rest my MIL’s soul. I wish she were alive, so I could get the low down on how this all started. I have a funny feeling she may have been allergic to cheese, and cooked without it. that is the only thing I can think of because my BIL is the same way.
here is a good one……..saw the fabulous idea of doing a Quiche with a hash brown potato crust. Convinced Gary I was making one for him with no vegies, just eggs and bacon. Of course it will have cheese- I will do Swiss, because it has the least bite. We will see how this one works out….LOL I will make the one with spinach for us, that they did on the show. So, this is what I said to him…..”you love hash browns, eggs, and bacon, so lets try them together!” This one is going to be epic. One can only imagine the post I will do after this ruse.
Hetaher broke the entire pair of glasses- frame split, and I think she said the glass part broke from the impact, not sure- just know her new glasses are dead. She is wearing her old pair, when she doe snot wear the contacts. She has not worn the contacts at all since, as the glasses hide a little of her bruising. A lot of people do not believe how it happened- everyone is thinking she got hit, or had an accident. She is constantly explaining, and getting a little ticked about it. I told her it will pass, or make up a better story……” I was skiing on Mount Washington, and ran into a tree”.
The Chew just came on- they had a lady eat spaghetti with chocolate….yuck.
Gotta go watch the Chew…hope I answered everything….LOL
AdeleHi Colleen
I forgot to ask in my other post, if any of the people who were flooded are friends of yours. Not that it matters, but it is always worst when you know them. I always feel so bad when I see tragedy on TV. I start to say a little prayer for the people. As they say, there but for the grace of God, go you and I. The weather has been making such a mess out of everyone’s lives.
It is hard to figure out what she hit when she fell, accept the nose is quite clear. She had her good glasses on, and broke them completely. I think they took the brunt of the fall, which could have saved her. It could have been worst. It was really weird. the first day, there was red, and a little blue around her nose, and the edges of her eyes. As the days went on, the bruising became darker, and spread. the last spot that appeared was that round bruise that seemed to settle near her mouth, and then the day after it showed up, that area swelled a little- that one is almost gone. That is also the day she went to the doctor and discovered the ear infection. It was the size of a dime.. It is disappearing, the same way it came- the eye area is the darkest still, and the rest is getting lighter, and disappearing little by little. She is embarrassed, as she looks like someone beat her up.
I copied that recipe form the Chew. It looked so good. I love what he did with the vegies, but I would have to modify the sauces, or you-knw-who would not eat any of it. I would have to do a different vegie for Gary. Everyone else would love the vegie.
I agree with you. fox news is very depressing. they are always yelling about something. I do not put them on. So, Tillie’s absentee ballot came today, (so did mine and Gary’s) and I asked her who she was voting for, and she said Trump. I told her you cannot, as you are a Democrat- this is the primary. Too funny.
I have noticed that too- no hair on the legs, or under our arms. No need for a bikini wax either…..LOL LOL So weird. I pluck the little hairs on my lip. I get 2 hairs on my chin- grey, to boot! Nobody ever told us all this stuff about aging. So, how come the guys do not lose the back hair????? LOL LOL I am pretty funny tonight.
that makeup you are talking about sounds like the tinted foundation I use when I go out. It is just enough, without looking weird on me. I hate that older woman with too much makeup look. It looks awful. This aging thing is strange. I make a lot of fun about it. That is the way I deal. If I tell Hetaher about it, she freaks out. I do not think she will “age gracefully”. Not that I look graceful at all…..LOL
I bet you will have a great time when you babysit for Aliza. Is that tomorrow? I hope the weather cooperates for all of you. Dying to see a picture!!! Have a great time, if you are going tomorrow.
you need to get ear plugs to block out Ron and the Fox news. I honestly think that news can make people nuts.
Have a good night- the Blacklist and Shades of blue are on. I love those 2 shows.
Adelehi Gail
the dinner was a success, when the hubby takes more, and them some for lunch, for sure.
here are some more Gary food rules: never eats left overs, no cheese at all, no chicken wings, no cold cuts, accept for bologna and turkey, never ate a piece of pizza, definitely no mozzarella sticks as they are definitely cheese, salad consists of lettuce only, and cucumber, no dressing, only vegetables allowed are corn, peas, and green beans. He does eat baked beans, and carrots and celery only in a soup, or crock pot dish. Oh……celery is eaten, only ice cold, and you have to cut it up for him…..as well as apples. he will not eat the skin of apples, and will not cut them up himself.
So, now you know why I am a crazy loon…..LOL LOL Too many rules on food. He wanted to gout to dinner for my birthday, and I was in a snit (remember I hate my birthday since I turned 60), so I told him I was not in the mood for his food issues at the only restaurant he will go to- the 99, and that I was going out with Nancy instead, who will eat at the places I like. So, he looks back at me sad, with that little boy face on, and says,”I will try Applebees with you.” Which, translated means……..I will try not to make “the face”, when I am not happy with my meal. So, that night, he got his fried clams (I cannot believe he eats them- they are gross), and me and Tillie had the fish and chips form the local take out. Everyone was happy, no “food faces”.
So, for the big game, I may make chili. He eats that reluctantly, with the food face on. Or, I may give up, and do take out. I, however, would love chicken wings, and spinach squares, or home made pizza. Yum, yum! We will see if Bobby will be home, as he likes just about everything. Accept zucchini.
I bet Greg is out buying up all the fake snakes. You will have to video the look on the birds face.
Hope your day is going good, and I age you a good laugh about Gary and his food. My 2 best friends are afraid to have us over for dinner, because of the food critic…..LOL
