It's the weekend!!!

I'm having a glass of f*ing merlot (Rex Goliath is the brand name...not bad, and of course I bought it for the name, which really refers to a 47 lb rooster, not my dog). Anyone want the over/under on me falling down on my way to bed (yes, I'm still dizzy )

Tomorrow - craft show. I'd better do well. I just added a side trip to my summer vacation that's going to be pricey but worth it (driving to Tybee Island).

Sunday 2 a.m. - repeat of the Daylight Saving Time weekend checkpoint call, but we'd better be off in about an hour this time. This is the weekend that we were SUPPOSED to change time, so we have to make sure we don't "spring forward" twice.

AND I scored the free tix to the Peaceful Warriors film, so unless Sunday is absolutely gorgeous or I'm dead on my feet, we'll go see it.

What are you up to this weekend?

Re It's the weekend!!!

I found mango margarita mix at World Market. Mangos are a beautiful thing.


This is going to be a long weekend, #1's gone. I'll write about it tomorrow. I am thinking about taking the remaining Horsemen to SElfridge Air Force base to see the various planes. There's an F-16 that #4 particluarly wants to see, beings as you can climb right inside of it.

Oh, and gardening. Did I mention that it's almost spring? I can garden now without needing mittens!

Re It's the weekend!!!

Church is on TV!

I should be tiling the backsplash in my kitchen tomorrow but I don't think it is going to happen. If I don't clean my bathroom child protective services will take away my children.

Hmm.....

Re It's the weekend!!!

OK, new (slightly weird-feeling) keyboard installed. Comp USA's going out of business - who knew? - and so the keyboard was practically free, yipee! Dino, however, is sitting on top of my monitor looking down at the keyboard like he has plans... maybe I should go back tomorrow and buy some more as spares.

Re It's the weekend!!!

I want to get it out, so thats not stressful.
got the kitchen segregated. I don't clean like Iris - I just lock everything not-kosher away and use only one cabinet and one section of the fridge and freezer. Need to work on menus for the week and go shopping.
Cindy - I always get confursed - I know legumes are bad, but green beans are ok, right?

My mom is bringing the charoset.
Maybe I'll make tzimmes too! Yum. What's in Israeli tzimmes? It takes hot peppers? My tzimmes is always sweet.

Re It's the weekend!!!

If you don't use legumes, then green beans are out, and so are peas.

Let me look for the tsimmes recipe - it's both sweet and hot.

I just took a nap, but I read that as "I reported it in Domestic Abuse"
OY

I knew about peas, but green beans always confused me because they're not legumes.

Re It's the weekend!!!

I love my new pink purse. I love the one I am not using either. I am such a pink freak. I tried to suppress it for so many years, but now it is out in the open. I am going to drive everyone I know crazy.

Re It's the weekend!!!

Well, Wormie, that must be why you and I are friends!! Our wedding, long ago, was completely pink. A variety of shades but pink none the less!!! When Missy was born, my husband's first words when the doc said a girl, were..."Oh no. More pink." And he was right!!!

I have always been a very pink person, from my teens. I supressed it for many years, but it is rearing its pink head again.

I am obsessed.
