Comments: Hmmm...well, I went to a 5 Star restaurant today for brunch and whatever was in that food was delicious. Mimosas, Independence, TX Coffee, Lobster bisque, tiny cinnamon french toasts with huckleberries flown in from Oregon, and a dollop of house made pumpkin ice cream to finish. I'm not thinking cooking or making any of it could have been better.
Comments: I still cook. I like to know 'what's'...in my food... I also know 'what really tastes good'.... a restaurant, now and then, I like...even 'fast food'...but cooking is best.
Comments: I figure if God intended for me to cook every day, He wouldn't have put my house so near Greenville Avenue.
Comments: My kind of dinner too, Brenda!
Comments: For dinner......I am making reservations!!!!
Comments: There is a woman at my Methodist church in Memphis, that had a stroke...after her heart doctor...put her pacemaker in 'backwards'.. Those bad ones..are out there...
Comments: Charlotte, his name Dr.Mark Dickson in Sherman, was supposed to be the best up this way, but after this with Gary, he does not do those surgeries any longer! Thank goodness. Robert Sewell, MD in Southlake, is the best of the best and teaches others his technology. He was awesome and I recommend him highly! Regarding dinner made old fashioned beef stew with honey cornbread! Yumm
Comments: Whatever's in the cupboard that seems like it would go with avocado will go into the brew.This usually turns out okay, but has been wonderful on a few occasions. Seldom has it been BAD because most home cooking is passable. I've known people who married men who were picky about their dinner. Thank God I am not one of those woman.
Comments: What's the recipe...? or is that the surprise...?
Comments: All rightie. We're having Avocado Surprise. Whatever happens from this point happens.
Comments: Who's Jay Walker...???
Comments: Crescent Dogs and Potato Salad(home made) for lunch. Don't know what's for supper..?? We had a bathtub redone, in Nashville.. No baths for several days..only showers in the other BR..
Comments: Charlotte, <sigh> you know I have the patent on double posting. Where's my character witness, Doctor Proctor??I'm glad to hear that Gary is all right. He was one tough cookie on the football field, and it looks like nothing has changed. What's everyone having for dinner tonight? I'm without inspiration. We have to eat at home because the windows are open. Had the bathtub redone today, and the house needs to air out. Maybe we'll have Avocado Surprise, because we have a couple of them ready to go. It'll be one of those "nobody else in the world is going to have this for dinner" meals. (If y'all never hear from me again, this could be why.)
Comments: Sorry about that.....posting by IPad has it's challenges. Signed Charllotte

Comments: Sharon, I received your email yesterday regarding Gary, but when I tried to reply to it, would not work. So here is the answer to your question. Gary is doing very good now. He went in for what was to be a simple re-do hernia repair as it was very large and pressing on his lungs. When the doctor got inside, it was a mess from the previous surgery in 2002. The first doctor apparently did the wrap as they call it on the wrong end of the stomach, the bottem of it, which in turn twisted his stomach and esophagus around and around, stomach was upside down and the hernia was escalating from the back side of his stomach. So it was not a simple re-do, everything was stuck to everything, the diaphragm had to be replaced, but all in all what was supposed to be a 2 hour surgery turned out to be a 4.5 hour surgery, but everything is in its place and working fine. He told us had we waited only 2 more weeks, he would not have made it, as it was cutting off everything and the pressure on his lungs would have done him in. Thank goodness for prayers of friends and family. We were very lucky to say the least and he is becoming grumpy now, so I know he is on the road to recovery! Thank you for asking and I hope this information was not too long to post and this way it has to be only one time. Thanks for carying Sharon and to all the other friends who have kept in touch. Jerry I hear is in ICU with an infection, he needs our prayers and so does Pat for strength.
Comments: Yay, Sharon! Good for you. My turn will be in a year or two, but right now I'm looking through a slight fog. Peaches, what is the latest on Jerry?
Comments: I can see again, yeah! Had laser clipping of a secondary cataract yesterday, and it's a miracle. Is Jerry still at Zale-Lipshy?
Comments: Jay Walker, are you from SOC?
Comments: good to know you are here
Comments: Peaches and all who emailed me, Gary's surgery came out great, as u know had we not done it as soon as we did he would not be here with us. Thank you for your prayers and concern, he is doing great hard to keep a Leverett down too long!
Comments: Dan, you're a brave (or something) man to eat flaming marshmallows! I had to blow mine out a time or two when they flared up. Very sanitary, of course. To my credit, I didn't drop any into the stove. I've done that before, and it's not easy to clean. Charlotte, the other three Hershey bars in my S'mores kit are calling my name loudly. I'll wolf down the rest of the graham crackers with a glass of milk. Terry has the metabolism of a teenager, unlike moi.
Comments: I did not have the s'mores tonight although I broke into the pinwheel cookies, with marshmallow, chocolate and graham cracker crust. Much easier and no burn until tomorrow when I have to burn those calories off. Just not as much fun as it used to be. Still good thigh with that glass of milk, 2% of course!
Comments: I ate more than my shares of s"mores in the scouts who met at Clara Oliver. My climb to fame was eating flaming marshmellows for my grandaughters and friends.. Then a couple of years ago I burned the roof of my mouth. I will not say how that turned out/ I no longer fire eat or cook marshmellows. I do eat peanuts and hulls whole. Everyone needs alittle roughage .I'm glad to see a few light hearted post ladies. It was getting hard to power up these past few weeks with all of the sadness everyone was enduring. I hope you are all doing well.Thank you all for your post just sorry I found you all so late in my life.
Comments: Okay...Missy...you broke into your smores kit!!! Mine is still sealed...ahem. If I open mine, Terry will eat all the Hersheys!!! He is a chocoholic!!! The stress of watching the results of the vote may drive me to open the kit and eat all the Hersheys myself!! haaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!
Comments: We rarely have dessert at home, but tonight we had S'mores. Oh, my, were they good. Marshmallows roasted on a stick over the gas range. Can you tell I'm a SOC girl?
Comments: Read in Saturday obits that Janet Melaun's mother passed away. The service is at Restland, I believe at 11:30 a.m. today.
Comments: Does anyone else hate the end of Daylight Saving Time? It's not even 7 p.m. and I am winding down. The cats have already turned in for the night.
Comments: Okay Peaches....you outdid me on that one!! |
