Comments: Everything went fine.....very sore, but am sitting up in a chair. Glad it is over!
Comments: Hope we hear something from Ada's family soon. Has anyone heard about her surgery? Richard, thanks so much for the recipe. Sounds as though it was worth the wait! Ronney, I thought of you recently as Bruce was chopping a snake in half! We seem to have a small problem in our yard - snakes!!
Comments: McKee, you're right about that. I noticed you started your post with the "H" word... Did you ever notice that "he**" is the true universal word with all meanings....you can use it for anything. Examples would be:
Comments: Avery rich man ordered an exotic and almost extinct roval from Africa. The cost was of no concern to him. He took the roval to his West Texas ranch. He noticed all day the roval ate nothing. The man thought it may have been traumatized from the trip to the USA and this would soon pass. Three days went by the roval still had not eaten and malnutrition was taking it's toll. Despondent, he went for a walk and sat on a park bench pondering his predicament. A man walked by and noticed him. "Say friend why so gloomy?" The rich man told his sad story and how he felt like he had lost is most pride possession. "Well, what do you feed him?" "Fruit and a little protein, but he just won't eat" "Well said the stranger, have you tried $100.00 bills?" What, why would I want to feed him that? "Good grief" said the stranger. "Don't you know money is the eat of all rovals?" Good night Smiley.
Comments: Richard - thanks a lot - now if you could just go ahead and make the dessert for us we could just sit back and "pig-out". I will try it as soon as possible.
Comments: Well all. it's good to see one of our own local Q.B.'S make it big in the NFL. I'll be the first to agree that Matthew Stafford was not the best Q.B. in college; however let me give you some pretty impressive little known facts about his senior year perfromance at H.P. I went to all 15 games when they won state in 2005. Matthew threw 38 touchdown passes and over 4,000 yards. Ran for 7. He missed the first 2 preseason games and first regular season game due to a knee injury. He never played the fourth quarter of the remaining 9 regular season and 4 of the playoffs. When a team is leading by 38-40 points at the end of the third quarter your Q.B. needs to be taken out. Can you imagine what his stats would have been had he played all every quarter in all 15 games? Proud to know a local kid make it big.
Comments: Hell, Nance: I gained more than 6 lbs. just reading that recipe. I can feel my hips, thighs, and gut expanding as I write. But, it does sound good. I will have to try that when my daughter comes home.
Comments: No problemo. Smiley, I noticed you & Rick conversing in a bi-lingual manner. Try this: owhya isya ouryya ovelyya ifewya uvonneYay? See, I can be multi-lingual as well.
Comments: Richard -- thanks for the recipe.
Comments: ...don't forget to remove the plastic wrap before serving & eating. The plastic really takes away a lot of the flavors.
Comments: JD, I don't get upset...I thought it was funny as well. Okie, dokie, here's the chocolate sundae recipe I talked about. NM released this on their Silver Anniversary (I think of the tea room), prior to that, the chef was quite secretive about his recipes, though they publish most of them now. Neiman-Marcus Chocolate Fudge Sauce & Sundae
Sauce ½ cup butter 2/3 cup evaporated milk 2-1/4 cups confectioner sugar 6 squares bitter chocolate
In a double boiler, mix butter & sugar & add evaporated milk & chocolate. Cook over very hot water for 30 minutes…DON’T STIR THE MIXTURE WHILE IT IS COOKING. Remove from the heat & beat well. Can be stored in refrigerator & reheated (but, don’t microwave it as it will crystallize the sugar), it’ll last 2-3 weeks.
Sundae Coarsely chop a cup of pecans Scoop VANILLA ice cream into ~3” balls and roll them in the pecans until covered. Wrap each ice cream ball in plastic wrap & freeze. Pour the warm fudge sauce over, eat it and gain about 6 lbs.
The Ice Cream – Use a good vanilla brand (chocolate ice cream seems to over-whelm the sauce, but that’s your call). Don’t go using some low-cost Breyer’s or Dreyer’s…kick it up to Haggan Daz or Ben & Jerry’s. If you use a cheap ice cream with this sauce, you get put in double-secret-probation.
Comments: J.D., personally, I thought your posting was funny as hell. Your doctor should love it. He will now probably prescribe all of those activities for you.....especially the drinking, eating lots of red meat, and SEX. If you aren't outside playing golf and such, try nude sunbathing. .....uh.....on second thought, scratch that idea. Your neighbors might complain. Ronney
Comments: Rick, Got a call late yesterday from Arista Ponce, our fence builder. He says he is finished with the fencing and would appreciate it if we would come pay him. We had him put a better fence around the house and barn also. They were working when we left 11 days ago but we are very surprised that they have finished. Doesn't mean we can't have that party on JD's tab. We are leaving today to check on things (and pay Ponce) I would advise you guys to follow my lead and be good while Sandy is away. Ada, Von and I both have you at the top of our prayer list. I agree with that second place speller that you are going to be fine. Hasta Luego
Comments: Thanks for the invitation to your ranch Dale. Why don't you have a fence building party, Our whole SOC group can put up those fences in a day and party that night. You can use JDs credit card for the materials, and Food and drinks.
Comments: Ada, you are in my prayers also as well as the medical team that will be ministering to you. Love you! Thursday, May the 7th is National Prayer Day! |
