    Pre Vacation Nerves/Jitters?

    Yup. Last night my dream was that there was an earthquake and our hotel leaned way over across the sea. But we had to get back to our room to retrieve our passports. Not an easy deal. lol :scared1:

    Pre Vacation Nerves/Jitters?

    Yes, indeed. I laughed when I saw this thread -- it's so timely. I'm like a total basket case with a trip coming up. I've gotta get moving or I'll implode. But I think it's just way worse because it's our first "major" trip since pandemic, and it makes me realize the pandemic really left a...

    Any Idaho folks out there? Trying to decide between Sandpoint and Couer d'Alene

    It’s been awhile since we were there, so can’t recommend accommodations+ but we found Sand Point to be much more charming than Couer.d’Alene, which seemed overbuilt to us.

    Fun and silly fads, please share

    Is anyone old enough to remember Creepy Crawlers and Fright Factory? You put liquid gel stuff in molds, cooked until solid, and traded them at school. Somehow we never burned our fingers using the hot oven thing to cook them. Loved ‘em.

    Best taco recipe?

    Same here. Just salt and pepper for a ground beef taco. When we make them at home, it's just a good freshly fried corn tortilla -- then fill with cooked ground beef and fresh toppings. Grated cheese, shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, chopped white onion. Taco night is very popular at our...

    slo’s TUESDAY 4/2 poll - Breakfast Meats 🥓

    On the rare occasion I have a meat with breakfast, it's a sausage patty. I like them all, but can't have often, so gotta pick a favorite.

    slo’s THURSDAY 3/28 poll - Easter Lilies

    They are lovely, but like others, too strongly scented to have in our house. I get allergies and migraine.

    slo’s FRIDAY 3/22 poll - Seafood Tacos 🌮

    We eat a lot of fish and shrimp tacos in our family. I have made them. I mix malt vinegar, like they serve with fish and chips, with either some mayo or sour cream to get a white sauce to drizzle over. Then just other stuff like cabbage and salsa. Mostly green salsa.

    slo’s WEDNESDAY 3/20 poll - Disney Parks Snacks 🥨 🍦🍗

    Our day usually includes a popcorn and some kind of baked good -- a brownie or something like that. I've tried all of the ones on the list, though.

    Princess Kate Picture "Kill Notice "

    Is anyone here old enough to remember the Beatles "Paul is dead" hysteria? "Listen to the record backwards. There's a secret message!" This totally reminds me of that. 🤣😂🤣

    homemade cornded beef without nitrate

    Many years ago I read that it's much better to boil a hot dog rather than grilling or broiling because a lot of the nitrates boil out. Not sure if this is true, but I tell myself it is when I eat corned beef on St. Patrick's Day. Hopefully not too much of that stuff remains in the meat after...

    Princess Kate Picture "Kill Notice "

    I simply don't buy into infidelity rumors. There are too many photos out there of them before the holidays making really good eye contact and showing warm body language. That is very hard to fake. More likely a mommy makeover, an amateurish photo shoot, and a lot of mean internet trolls...

    Princess Kate Picture "Kill Notice "

    It seems strange to me that the photo would be pulled from news because to me the news story IS that this is the photo that was provided by Katherine and William. And that would hold true of any photo -- perfect or amateurish.

    slo’s FRIDAY 3/8 poll - Artichokes

    I think of artichokes as a seasonal vegetable -- although they may be in the market year 'round now. We buy them in the summer. They are very easy to cook. Pull off a few outer tough leaves, use kitchen scissors to cut off sharp tips if you want to, but you don't have to, boil them until they...

    slo’s MONDAY 3/4 poll - Orange Bird Merch 🍊

    We Disneybounded as Orange Birds one day at WDW, so there must be some stuff around here that went into that theme. It was a fun and easy Bound -- lightweight, comfortable clothes of the right colors. I remember there being some feathers involved...
