An Invasion of a "STRANGER" Kind.... NEW THREAD IS UP!! Go Thee NOW!

[glennbo123]

Yes, along with flies, mosquitoes, amoebas that cause dysentary, and bananas.

I was with you up until "bananas".

 

[All7OfUs]

Gag and puke! I'm willing to take a bite of Tonga Toast to say I"ve done it, and frozen bananas are good because it changes the texture of them, other than that- hurl city!

Speaking of Singing in the Rain... (one of our favorites too!)



Well, I can't find any of the pictures I wanted to show you! Dang! This is the only one I could find of a teensy weensy piece of the yard. You can see the river behind there. This is a side yard with a working pond with a little rock waterfall that is so sweet! In the spring and summer is it completely packed with columbine and snowdrops and all kinds of other woodland flowers

The deck I wanted to show you must be on the other computer that my DH has. It is chock full of potted flowers on iron stands. Geraniums, daisies, you name it! I doubt I can keep it up like Mom did, but I'll give it my best shot. Things are so easy to grow in Oregon. Especially compared to here.

Hey, I know I"ve been lax in updating my blog lately. Seems since DH has been gone, I've been taking advantage of the extra DISsing time, so the blog has been neglected. BUT I just updated it with the next installment of the train trip that was so awful. Take a look.

Too cute!
Your yard is so pretty! Really inspires me to do something with mine. Hmm, I still have some flower seeds from the flower and garden festival in May!

Spring is right around the corner, Barbara!! Think flowers, and warm sushine, and birds, and rainbows!!

Hate to rub it in, but we already have most of that!
Nice and warm here today! I just came back from a run around the neighborhood with DD and am now going to make chocolate chip pancakes for b-fast, special treat for us!

 

[MKBekka]

Thanks Glenn! I wish I could have found the pix of the wooden deck! There is also another yard with pears, figs, apples, plums and huckleberries. DH says he's been on the TLB all week. That's the Tree Liberation Brigade - freeing trees from ivy is a year round never ending job.

That's why he's going to get a goat....but who's going to feed, scoop, and stake and re-stake?

I was with you up until "bananas".

she hates 'em. No matter what we do, we cann't get her to eat one. so sad.

 

[that's nice]

You can always eat the outsides and leave the bananas.

But you like them frozen huh. So you don't mind the taste.


Glad you got rid of all but that 1 puppy.

That's a good question. He likes rain so much, maybe he should do it.

I'll eat a banana if you eat a big fat sushi roll.

Yeah, that would be tasty.

I like the ones at MK with lots of choco and nuts, but if they start to melt and get slimy I'd be finding PUSH pretty quick.

I like banana bread.

Me TOO. That was getting old pretty fast.

 

[jenbear123]

What's wrong with bananas?

 

[punkin413]

i was wondering why i hadn't seen your thread on my updated threads list lately. duh. i'm in....will catch up later!

 

[eandesmom]

Yay for one puppies, that happened fast after seeming to take forever!

Pizza crust.....wanna share your recipe? I don't have one and the store bought stuff was...BLEH.

Congrats Kernel's!

 

[Native NYer]

Hi Jennifer!! I've seen all around too. So great that you've come on over!! We'll try really hard to not scare you off. Nooo, totally just kidding! Hopefully, I'll have another something to share in the next day or so. Meantime, we like to yak it up and have fun!!

I just looked at your ticker... You lucky ducky! You get two trips right on top of each other!! SweeT!

Thanks for the warm welcome

Yup, two trips planed. I can't wait to go with my friend in July. She's never been and I'll get to play tourguide.

Now, I need to catch up

I guess it's a texture thing more than anything?? I just even gag though when I smell them fresh. Yucko!

HA!! Hey, I was wondering if/when you'd show up! I tried to give the regulars a head's up on their threads, but then sort of got to thinking that that might be construed as sorta rude- like I was tooting my own horn, which I occassionally do.

All kidding aside, WELCOME to the new and improved planning Fest.

Let's see: a neighbor took 2 early on, then a gal at our office took one, then 3 callers came and took them (from our ad), and my househelper is taking one. I am sad to say, that puppies/ dogs only last about 1 year if they are lucky here. It's a sad, sad thing.

Rebekah starts with 2 cups of water, 1 T yeast and a couple t. sugar. She also adds the oil (about 1/4 c.). Mix this in a big bowl and let the yeast dissolve. Stir in about 1 t. salt, 1 T crushed rosemary, and enough flour to make a not-so-stiff dough. Knead well. Let rise until doubled. Viola. It's very easy and goes together in about a half hour.

Whenever I hear Colonel, I think there should be a "Sanders" that follows.

Thanks for the warm welcome

I"m really glad you are here! 2 trips!?! So fun! LeeAnn has never been either- so I"ll definitely have to follow you along and find out how taking a Newbie goes!

2 great tags for the tag fairy! LOL

You would never toot... errrrrrrrr

1. I seem to have a knack for posting questionable one-liners.

2. Who me?? Nah, never... pfftt.. oops!

3. Right! Their coleslaw rocks.

4. Flame on my friend!

I'm not a big fan of fruit, but it's more like they don't do anything for me...I can take 'em or leave 'em. I'm a bigger fan of vegetables.

My dad used to say that: "we need to get a goat".

 

[Sleepingbooty]

Liesa, that pic of the Oregon yard is gorgeous! Are those actually real leaded windows?

Read the updated on your blog - how fascinating - and filthy! The train conditions, I mean I can't wait to hear about the rest of the journey. How often do you put yourself through - I mean, how often do you take this train?

 

[carissanboys]

So, I guess no peanut butter and banana sandwiches for you, Liesa? One of my favorites!

Thanks for posting Rebekah's pizza dough recipe. I'm going to try it tonight instead of our normal one. I just use the Better Home's Cookbook recipe. I do have a recipe for a "Boboli" crust. But, I don't think it was all that different from our usual one.

 

[carissanboys]

Oh - and I meant to ask about your blog. Could I have the link?

Just click the camel in her sig.

Oh, Liesa...this is for you:
