I got a dutch oven for my birthday and am terrified of cooking with it, but that sounds delish!! I'd be willing to break it in over baby back pork ribs!

Elphaba Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 After several months, we are now going to have an addition to the family for next year.What a wonderful, wonderful Christmas gift. I am so incredibly excited for you! First Dr. T, and now you. I love to hear when people are going to have babies! Actually, I also had a new baby for Christmas. He is a Miniature Pinscher, or a Min Pin, and he is just a puppy, only seven weeks old. He plays hard for half an hour, then sleeps for three. He also sleeps all night long already!If he's feeling a little afraid, he crawls up my shoulder, then onto my back under my hair and stays there until he feels safe enough to come back down. His name is Alexander, "Xander" for short, and I am smitten. Again, a, congratulations. I can't think of a better present!Elphaba Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mightynancy Posted December 25, 2007 Report Share Posted December 25, 2007 I'm calling him Canute the Great. Yes, he's a Viking. Okay, okay, so the Viking company calls him the "Platinum 730", but I'm calling him Canute. (For the clueless, it's an ab fab sewing machine!). Me luv got a hand-knit scarf, a blanket, and a gift card toward a coat that he's got his eye on. The chillens got a Nano (the older chile) and American Girl Bitty Twins (the younger chile), and about 50 pounds of books. Warmest congratulations to the a-train family!! It's the gift that keeps on giving! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
