lakegran walks the beach again

[chefk]

I just discovered books on tape are downloadable through my library. I don't even have to stop there. I've been sinking myself into tales and adventures every day on the way back and forth to work. Love it! (Just another way to "read" your favorites)

You are hilarious.
Get a spirooli! Or give in and just grab a 20% off coupon and go down to Bed, Bath & Beyond and get one there, they have one in the kitchen section...or go in on the $50 one with a few health conscious friends and share it? I'm trying here, buddy, I'm trying!

Your tummy is probably happy because of your wonderful yogurt! I've been reading your T-Day menu and it looks good. Can I come? I'm doing the feast on Thursday, along with dinner Wed night and leftovers on Friday. Everyone will clear out of the house on Saturday. Good for you for ditching the green bean casserole. I make it under protest every year ever since my SIL got my kids hooked on it. I don't mind eating it some other time (although those fried onion things don't make my stomach happy!), but not for T-Day.

I picked up my special T-Day farm share yesterday and have lots of orange things - yams, squash, carrots. My sister will bring broccoli and asparagus so that will balance out the colors. Not sure how many of the orange things I'm making, though. All of them would be a little overkill.

You are welcome anytime.......
When I moved back to Michigan my son did a makeover on a cottage for me and I have a little B&B like set up at one end of the house.
Not the optimal time to spend on the lake in Mi, but still enjoyable.
Yes I think my tummy was missing that ativia.
