A Gardeners Forum Forums General Discussion The Banter Hall Coffee House 2519

I guess from now on I will close out and come back when things are missing for me---perhaps somehow it is my computer---it was NOT there when I came back in last night---oh well, as you say, it is there now---

It is very cold outside, but the sun is shining--so that is good.

Thanks for adding us to the list, Sunny....

I wish everyone a good day.

Good morning. It's cold and I didn't want to leave my bed. But coffee will fix that.
I would like the basic recipe for your rolls, please, Sunny. I can figure out the fillings.
I plan on getting a little shopping done today. For Christmas. There is a mild love/hate relationship with that. I love gifting, I hate trying to figure out what will excite my son. Teddy is so difficult to figure out.
I hope everyone has a good day.

Well my brother-sitter flaked on me so I ended up staying home. Another day.

Sorry to hear that Tina--but yes there is time yet....

I got my living room decorated today, the bills paid, and I now have a plan on how I should finish Christmas.

Rod has tomorrow off & we are going to spend the day (well hopefully the whole day) together.
Every year we like to go to a small town that is known for it's craft stores, and then do a small bit of Christmas shopping.

Tomorrow is the day. So I will likely not be back in until tomorrow evening.

I wish you all a very Good Night ! Sweet Dreams !

Sounds like fun, Carol
Sweet dreams all.

Good morning. I've been up awhile. Just waiting on my store to open and the post office too.
It's cold here also, 56* inside, 48* outdoors. And we're to get a bit of rain this weekend. Every drop counts.
I hope everyone has a great day.

It's cold here too. Around 40°.

Maybe we should all order the spring water I'm hearing about on TV right now. One lady ordered it and received a surprise check for $14,000.00. Another lady says she got "a hundred G's" right after ordering it and another got her house paid off. I don't know about you but I believe them. :)

where do I sign up?? I could use that kind of cash...

Today we went shopping. I got my Brighton Beds for my bracelet--now all of my grands are represented on it.

found the trucks I needed for my 2 Grandsons but one they already had & the other was a garbage truck...They are twice as much online.

I am back to wrapping gifts...and washing clothes.

I have been drinking spring water for years and I don't have that kind of luck. But I don't drink the right brand probably.

yes, what brand is that that does that Sheri ??

Goodnight--sleep tight---

sweet dreams !

And good night from me too. Sweet dreams.

I'll take some off that spring water please.

I made my post office and grocery run yesterday...then came home to a full day and evening of Xmas baking. The only thing left to do is hand deliver cards.

It is minus 4 degrees F today, brrrr.

Tina, the basic roll recipe is ~Homemade Wonton Wrappers: 1 egg, 1/3 c. water, 2 c. all-purpose flour and 1/2 tsp. salt. Mix by hand, knead a few times...rest 30 min...and roll very thin and cut into small squares.

Good Morning ! I was up far too early again this morning. BUt on the good side of that now I can get more done today .

Off today to Rural King (a farm store) to see about some toys for the Grands.

I wish you all a good day.

Good morning. I think I will take my 49* and be happy with it.
Keep warm, my friends.
I have no great plans for today. My legs are feeling yesterday's efforts so I'll take it easy on them today.
Thank you for the recipe, Sunny. I'm pretty lazy. I think I'd buy my wonton wrappers. I have a bunch of organic ones in my freezer right now.

I too vote with Tina for store-bought wrappers.

I am way tired tonight--I was looking for an easy pasta salad recipe, but I think I will stop & go to sleep now--G'nite.

Sleep tight & keep warm everyone...

Good night, Carol. I am going to bed soon myself. Sweet dreams all.

Tina , store bought is the way to go...they are hard to get here so sometimes I have to make them.

We lost power for a few hours again yesterday...it's getting ridiculous. I am going to have to start pricing and saving for a small generator after all. I can do without power for most
things but my fridge and freezer cannot.

I did get all my cards hand delivered yesterday....another thing off the list.

Junie, this is my favorite recipe for pasta salad.

1/2 box Fusili, boxed pasta
Few pieces of diced tomato, green pepper and grated carrot.
1/2 cup Italian Dressing
1/2 cup French Dressing
1/4 cup Salad Dressing~mayo
2 tsp sugar
1 tsp parsley
sprinkle pepper and dash of salt

Cook pasta, rinse and chill.
Combine Zesty Italian Dressing, French Dressing, Mayo, sugar, parsley, pepper and and in separate container. Mix well.

Combine dressing mixture with veggies and then add cold pasta. Refrigerate before serving.

Thank you so very much, Sunny--I will try it.

Good morning..Church, & visiting my MIL today is on the agenda. The I am going to trim my tree...finally.

I wish you all a great day

Good morning.
That sounds like a lovely way to spend the day, Carol. Have fun.
I hope you can get a generator soon, Sunny. It's a very good thing to have.
Today I am going to change bedding and things. It's my regular thing to do. I love the routine.
I hope everyone has a great day.

Glad that you mentioned that, Tina--I need to do that as well. Thanks for the reminder. I have a set of sheets that are not flannel, but they are never cool, so I think they will be perfect for winter. I will try them this time.
'
'After the the current sheets are in the wash machine, I will go get the tree. (ornaments are already in the LR)

I got most of my list done today. My list is much shorter than it used to be.
I will say good night. But I think I'll putter here for awhile before I go.
Sweet dreams.

Somehow the night got away from me..

2 loads of clothes are washed, the tree is up an decorated, many more of my cards are written out & stamped, etc. & ready to go, and Rod's lunch is made. I now I REALLY need to go to sleep...
sweet dreams

Good Morning. Well here I am again...awake for the day.

Today's plan is to go to town & finish my Christmas shopping. But first...Coffee is the order of the day.

Good morning. I've been up a couple hours but just coming in.
I don't know what my plans are today. Beyond a trip to the dumpster. But I'll get something done.
I hope you all have a great day.

Hi all, yesterday GG and I went to my niece's house to help her decorate her tree and such...she is only 13 years old...I've been doing it with her since she has been born.

I also cashed in the rest of my points everywhere and treated myself to a few ornaments and a poinsettia plant. GG also got a 'big girl' pink shovel. Free is good

It is storming out at the moment...and GG is making a small gingerbread house. Apparently Dec.12 is National Gingerbread house Day...thankfully I had enough notice I can't keep up with all these new things that come out.

I can't keep up with it all either, Sunny. And I have a book.

I can't keep up with it either...but oh well...

a Book, Tina ? --how interesting....

Yes, it is something like 365 things to do with kids. It has a list of what things happen on different days, like national pancake day and suggestions on what to do for it as well as games to play, etc. It is geared towards teachers but fun pictures too.
I am going off now. Sweet dreams.

thanks for the explanation, Tina.

I too am headed to bed...sweet dreams.

And this one is closed...and a new one is open for your posting pleasure !!
