Weekends are Cool!

That's right after my long holiday week in the world of food i finally can put up my feet if i want too! So this what it's like to have the weekend off... I say it's nice. Sleep in do a little laundry, watch a little PBS, and whtever i want.
Here's a little run down of the day. Me and the Mr. jumped in his car and went to hang out with Karen and Joe. When we arrived they had just finished putting up there Christmas lights. They were very very excited, and are making the best preparations for their First Christmas in Casa de Nicholas. After that Karen started on the inside while the rest of us washed and waxed Gregs car. It's so purdy, and shiny ... Then after that we were hungary and all had different ideas where we wanted to go... So we all wrote down one place and pulled it out of a hat. So we went to our little Southwest joint that always welcomes us at the door. Took in a dvd The da vinci Code, it was pretty good.Then we headed home... we had a nice fun day.

Here comes the holidays!!!

Wow doesn’t it seem that their coming at us with lighting speed. I just put in my food order for our Thanksgiving Buffet. I can’t BELIEVE it’s next week. I freaked out at this one radio station I listen to at work, they decided to do a Christmas music marathon. I had to listen to it for several hours because my associate at work loves the stuff. So we made a deal that we would listen to it tell we did break time. Then after that I switched as fast as I could. On the other hand the decorate she decorates their house right after thanksgiving. I say it’s WAY too early for that stuff. Don’t they know Thanksgiving hasn’t even happened yet? I prefer the one Holiday at a time mentality. Then before all that Christmas cheer comes my Birthday first and most importantly. So for all you folks out there keep an eye on my counter, it’s on the side bar below to the left. Don’t worry there’s still plenty of time to plan. So here’s the order to go by… It’s time to get ready for Turkey day 1st , then don’t forget my Birthday, then on to Christmas.

HOW YOU EAT YOUR SALAD TELLS A LOT ABOUT YOUR PERSONALITY
Part one…
Are you a dipper, topper, or a mixer? When it comes to salad dressings, a recent Market Facts survey for the Association for Dressings & Sauces says, the way you use salad dressing says a lot about your personality. For example, people who dip their greens into their salad dressing, "dippers," rate themselves as being more spontaneous and outgoing than "mixers," those who mix their dressing throughout their salad. Mixers see themselves as more sociable than "toppers," people who simply dump their dressing on top of their greens and go at it. Toppers, however, tend to be more shy than their mixing and dipping counterparts. The Market Facts survey shows that a whopping 49.5 percent of those surveyed are mixers, 37 percent are toppers, and only 10.9 percent are dippers.
Part 2 soon...

tat for now folks...see you next time

“oh blah de..oh blah da live goes on bro.. la la la life goes on..”

Just like the song says….
Well how’s everyone’s week going so far? Well between being in a car accident last Friday, a runny nose over the weekend and my husbands car going a ka blooie, (kinda sounds like the lyrics to a bad country song) it’s been pretty okay if you ask me. At least I can’t complain that I’m bored, but a little less excitement would be okay with me…

So without further adieu… To bring to everyone and myself I must give out some food humor…


CORNED BEEF DIP RECIPE
( I know you have never seen this one before)
Day 1: Combine one 12 ounce can of corned beef with mayonnaise. Make husband a corned beef sandwich for lunch. Refrigerate leftovers.Day 2: Leave corned beef mix in fridge and ignore because husband does not like it.Day 3: Host a makeup party. Search fridge for a unique hors d'oeuvre. Drag out aged corned beef mixture. Add more mayonnaise, chopped onions to taste, and minced parsley for color. Shape and let stand at room temperature for a few hours. Serve with stale Hi-Ho Crackers. Tell everyone it's a secret recipe. They'll love it!

And yes for your reading pleasure… and I bet you didn’t know..

PEPSI AND COCA COLA in China
--A Little Humor!
PEPSI'S "Come Alive With the PEPSI Generation" Slogan, when translated into Chinese, means "PEPSI Brings Your Ancestors Back From the Grave." The COCA COLA name in China was first read as "Kekoukela," meaning "Bite the wax tadpole" or "female horse stuffed with was," depending on the dialect. COKE then researched 40,000 characters to find a phonetic equivalent. The new name is KOKOU KOLE, which means "happiness in the mouth

I hope you got a little laugh from all this..I did.
