Comments: Those were big raisin & walnut cookies, and they were delicious! Unlike Sharon, I didn't take mine home!
Comments: Sharon, a belated happy anniversary! That was one gorgeous cookie.
Comments: A little snow can't keep me from shopping...That was still very much in tact.. ha! Yes, HAPPY ANNIVERSARY SHARON!
Comments: Happy Anniversary Sharon and Steve. I thought you had been married longer than that.
Comments:  And the shopping? Is it still intact?
Comments: Sharon, I just went up to check on things...yep the mountains are still there...ha! I can think of plenty of excuses to go. 
Comments: Charlotte, you are absolutely right, it was a huuuuge cookie, but I didn't eat it! By that time I was so full that I took it home to Steve (he had to work) who really enjoyed it. Have you decided to take up full-time residency in CO? Steve and I are celebrating our 25th anniversary today. I really can't quite believe where all the years have gone.
Comments: Looks like a fun party! Enjoyed seeing the pics. Peaches, next year would you please plan the party around MY schedule? Strange Lady, I bet it's beautiful there! I'm envious.
Comments: Sharon, is that a giant cookie on your plate in your photo? haaaaaaaaaaa! Everyone looks so happy and festive. Peaches' house looks beautiful as usual. Looks like a wonderful time was had by all. Thank you for posting the photos Lynell. The closer I get to the number, the more I realize how early 70s deaths are. I know Don probably needed to go. I wonder if too many hits to his head caused his dementia? That is a concern these days. My mother died of a heart attack at 73....sheesh...that is 8 years from my age right now and Terry's father died of a heart attack at 62...WOW..hard to realize now that I am here. On a lighter note...It is snowing right now in Steamboat Springs, CO and the mountains are gorgeous!
Comments: Sorry we missed the luncheon, Gary was at the deer lease, Brenda Kemp and I had gone to Canton the day before, all that walking, we were in no shape to travel again on Sunday, ha. Glad everyone had such a great time. Sharon, I read that about Dandy Don too, I worked with him in 1971 and 1972, right when he married Susan who he met in New York at the time, they were married for 38 years. He was such a great guy to work with at the McKenzie Baer Law Firm, was just as he was on TV with that great personality and smile. He will be sorely missed by so many of us.
Comments: Thanks to all for the great party. Everything was wonderful, as usual. I just saw that Dandy Don passed away last night at the age of 72. Brings back lots of memories of the early Cowboys at the Cotton Bowl and, of course, Monday Night Football.
Comments: Peaches, Thank You for the wonderful party!! It was great to see so many friends I haven't seen in a while. The food was very good & as always, your home was gorgeous!! And Thank You to each of the other committee members who helped bring the food & did the clean-up. All of you are appreciated & it was a great party!!
Comments: Thanks to Cynthia, we now have pictures from yesterday's Christmas luncheon on the Images page. If you weren't there, you were missed! Many thank yous, Cynthia. Great pictures!
Comments: Well Lynell hit all the highlights. What a great day with great folks. Thank you to all the people that brought the wonderful food - boy spinach salads this week! It was a great afternoon in lovely surrounds - thank you again to Peaches for opening her house for this event every year. Mary Kay - praying for you to get better and fully restored strength and health. We missed you. It feels a little like Christmas - Merry Christmas all and to all a good night.
Comments: Did I mention that the food and beverages were all outstanding? A big note of gratitude to all who helped make this possible.
Comments: Peaches and the Hostesses/Host put on the best-ever Christmas party today. Seeing old, dear friends is the greatest present! I was not fast enough to snag one of Joanne Lachnitt's chocolate treats, but I heard yummy sounds from those who did. Everyone who brought food and helped put on this great shindig, THANK YOU!! Peaches' house looks beautiful. It needs to be in a design magazine in a story called How It's Done!
Comments: 60 have rsvp for the SOC Annual Christmas luncheon tomorrow. We have been doing these since 2004. We will have a few new faces. Christmas music is on, started to prepare salads, will be setting up tables in the garage with heaters to keep us semi warm, Christmas plates out, house decorated. We have such SPECIAL friendships. Come prepared for lots of fellowship, LAUGHTER, walking down MEMORY LANE, good food and creating new memories. I love this time of the year.....but let us remember the Real Reason for the Season is Jesus Christ. Happy Birthday Jesus!
Comments:  Jud came back with that fashion description so quickly, one might think that vision was already in his head.
Comments: What was that poor fashion-challenged young lady thinking? Daisy Dukes simply scream for a red bra and thigh high stilettos!
Comments: I am blown back in my chair by the fact that Geo J found that disturbing liberry book. Any book like that that I ever saw either contained a flask, a pearl-handled small revolver, or money. You go, Geo-J! For the second time in 24 hours, I was blown back when I watched a TV show last night about female Dallas Police Department officers. The officer busted a 19-year-old strolling along Marsalis in Daisy Dukes and a black brassiere. (I know I'm the only one who calls them that.) The young lady's mama approached and sided with the cop. The officer asked where they lived. "Up by the second Frio," the mother responded. That mayl be the house I grew up in. My mother, BTW, would have done more than side with the police had I been that stoopid. She would have rightfully beheaded me on the spot. P.S. A black bra?? Daisy Dukes??? I think NOT. At least our alma mater was shown on TV. We are so lucky we grew up when we did.
Comments: Well, sorry to report that Dru and I won't be in Dallas for the party Sunday. She is wrapped up in an arts & crafts show in Huntsville. I continue to search for the elusive geocaches ... from the teeny to the absurd. My pal Rudolph has been helping me lately and he has a "nose" for the chase. We found this one near the local Chic-Filet restaurant: http://people.consolidated.net/swsw/chick2.jpg And this one took us 4 attempts at Ridgewood Park: http://people.consolidated.net/swsw/ridgewood1.jpg The most unusual cache was this one hidden 260 ft. back in the woods south of The Woodlands: http://people.consolidated.net/swsw/pig3.jpg While the most recent find was this one hidden in the Geography section of the Conroe Library. Rudy and I were the first ones to discover it!: http://people.consolidated.net/swsw/moco_lib_1.jpg
Comments: Thanks, Michael. Can't wait to try this. We're going to a friend's house for Christmas dinner, and this will be my contribution.
Comments: Lynel, I just read my post and I forgot to say the cool whip topping is to be mixed in with the puree, spice and pudding mix to form the mousse like consistency.
Comments: Michael, your Pumpkin Surprise sounds great! El Centro has a wonderful chef training program. I made a boatload of your great dressing recipe. We just polished off the last of the turkey-and-dressing sammiches. I hope you and Monica rally soon!
Comments: Lynel, sorry to hear about David, and right at Hannahkuh at that. Monica and I are not through coughing sniffling and wheezing but we are coming out of it ever so slowly...sniffle...sniffle...well the truth is at my age wheezing is expected. I have a new recipe to share, straight from the culinary class at El Centro...it is a really really good and simple pumpkin mousse. chill one 15 oz can of pumpkin puree (not the pumpkin pie mix) one teaspoon pumpkin pie spice one 3 1/2 oz pkg of instant vanilla pudding mix (just the mix) Mix these throughly and then add 3 to 5 cups of cool whip cream topping depending on taste. It is sooo easy and absolutely delishhhhuuus and I don't really care for pumpkin pie but this is outrageous.
Comments: They are both such world travelers, live in Houston and avid tennis players....it is easy to get confused when thinking about them. Thanks Bill, I need someone to watch out for me.
Comments: Sure thing, Jud. I'll just need your bank account and routing number.
Comments: Thanks, Bill! You sure did...and with only minimal spanking. Lynell, just in case, you can go ahead and send me the money now.
Comments: Actually Martha, that was Phil. I raised Jud better than that!
Comments: If you hear about that happening in Crockett, go ahead and send the money. Jud, funny that you were in NY with all the great restaurants and a memory from the past calls you to White Castle. Sounds good and the price is still right. |
