    I read a really great article about Obama in Vibe magazine a few issues back. My respoct for him has really grown in the last few months! :)

    Now Sioux, I've liked you so far. Don't make me change my opinion of you. :P:sparklygrin:

    hee hee! hey..we can still like each other plenty fine. my mom's a very liberal democrat and my daddy's a very straight-laced republican and they get along famously! and plus they made me! :sparklygrin:

  2. My son has turned 13.

    He is beginning to experience all of the expected physical changes.

    We were talking about some of the changes he is going through and some that are yet to come.

    He understands that all of these are part and parcel of becoming a man.

    Being manly is very important to him.

    He proudly showed me his arm pits to illustrate his new found manliness.

    I looked very hard....strained my eyes in fact.

    Sure enough I spotted a very sparse scattering of tiny blonde hairs.

    There amongst these questionable manly hairs was one single, long black hair.

    My son said to me:

    "He's my big one mum, and I'm very proud of him!"

    Yes,... I kept a very straight face.

    Nodded my head in great awe and wonderment.

    Then said "He's a beauty son."

    taaahahahahaha!! :rofl: I can't see how you kept a straight face! That's always my down fall... I just start cracking up!

    A couple of nights ago I was cooking dinner with my 16 yo daughter who likes her pasta with butter not sauce. So she pulls out a stick of butter and says with pure confusion in her voice... "mom. where's the real butter i say..."it's in your hand." she says "no, the REAL butter. you know...the I Can't Believe It's Not Butter.." (it's a margarine/spread here in the US) I say.."that's NOT butter, that's margarine. What you have in your hand is the butter." she's still full of confusion and is all.."but it IS butter." I again lovingly say... "No, it's NOT butter that's why it's called I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. Because it tastes so much like butter, people can't believe it. see?" She then gets that omygoshigetit look and says "ooooooh". I couldn't help but laugh! and then I called my mom to tell her the story :)

    SF.. Old Bay is a seasoning you can find at the grocery store. Super yummy on all types of seafood. :)

    Guess what you guys?! I made Funeral Potatoes for the the first time ever in my 34 years last night for dinner. My little daughter said "I thought they only made these at church!" hee hee! They were really yummy with the pork chops, salad and brides biscuits!

    We're on the 11:30 am start time right now for church so usually make a big brunch to last us through the block.

    Eggs

    Bacon/Sausage/Chorizo

    Muffins of some sort..this is where i experiment..blueberry. poppy seed. chocolate/chocolate chip.

    Fruit- I usually chop it up in to bite size chunks and make a topping/dip that's 1/2 a tub of cool whip lite and 1 container of whichever yogurt flavor sounds good. Last time it was blackberry and a huge hit! you can work out whatever coolwhip to yogurt ratio is yummiest for you. :)

    And always, always potatoes of some sort! :)

    Okay so what time is YOUR brunch so I can make sure I'm on time next week?

    9:30 am ! be there or be L7! :) I would love to have you!

  5. but I thought this would be a nice topic to have here!

    Ok basically this is how it goes.I say something for example cat or dog then you have to say which one you prefer or if neither you can say why then you have to add your own this or that.

    I'll start:

    Cake or ice-cream?

    ice-cream! :lol:

    Fort or Tree-House?
