Do not cut doll's hair.
I will not grow back
This is a lesson that took me 5 or 6 dolls to learn
It was Mussles Tuesday with my friend Robin! So, that's what we had for dinner at India Restaurant

Susan, I didn't last that long.

Lol Bedo!
And I will add, if your doll's name is Barbie, you should also not bathe with her or in any way get her lovely locks wet or she will forever be unemployable as Dr Barbie, Supermodel Barbie, Christmas Barbie or any form of gainful employment because she will look like a crazy person who stuck a metal object into an electrical socket...lol! And while putting it in a ponytail will help, everyone will know what happened...lol!0 -
Yay Bobo on your new purchase! Cinnamon....tres chic!! I'm eager to hear about all of your VM creations during all of your free time! You'll have to let me know if yours screams out in resistance when making hummus! But it sure loves making smoothies....:).
2nd, hope you are coping well after that fall. Nasty timing after a procedure....
Getting a kick out of the self-administered hair cut stories. I'm waiting to hear that DGS tries to give himself one. He has soooo much hair and it grows like a chia pet.....put that together with his school trying to get him to be able to cut with scissors (he's two!). Recipe for hairstyle disaster IMO.
Still beautiful weather here today, so DH and I took a very long walk to the polls to vote. I was ready to be carried by the last block of this five mile effort.
Laurie, this is also my first time feeling ambivalent about watching The Big C....last night was so heartbreaking and well acted...and we know that we're in for nothing short of really acute pain this season.
DH is out tonight, so I just heated up some leftover homemade pizza with ricotta, and had cuke salad with it. I have officially decided that I do not ricotta cheese on my pizza....with basil/pesto topping or with a tomato sauce variety. It just is not pizza! Too bad I still have some ricotta left in the fridge.....0 -
Seaside, that Barbie is me in the morning? I dunno, takes awhile for my eyes to focus before I look in the mirror
Hmmm planning breakfast
Milk, 2 cups with coffee
I think that that would be a good start.

My eating starts out hearty, then goes downhill throughout the day. By the time I get to dinner, it's pretty rustic.
I am back on the Paleo diet, because I was just diagnosed with Crohn's disease and cannot eat grains again. Ever.
So, breakfast was raw kale, tomatoes, eggs, backon and chicken from Whole Foods food bar.
Pint of strawberries for snack.
Lunch was beef and broccoli.
Dinner is steamed baby turnips with truffle butter, with pastured scrambled eggs.

I want steamed baby turnips!!!
Lacey -- I agree. My Vitamix is going to be tres chic. I will not make humuus in it though. I am extremely sick of humuus.
Marry me, Nancy!

bobo anxiously awaiting what will transpire from the vitamix machine!
Funny about the haircut stories. My kids never touched their own hair, but the DD did the barbie haircut thing...not to givethem good cuts but i think just a malicious side in her...she hated dolls of any type. Her grandma could never get over that and kept buying them for her.
I have found that trying to eat healthy means sooo many trips to the grocery store trying to keep the fresh veges and fruits stocked up. Our nearest store is 20min away, and I try to minimize the amount of times I go into town. Living out here in the boonies is pretty, but not practical.
Gonna try some mini quiches in muffin tins for our apps tonight on the boat.

I am making a lentil soup. Vitamix is not here yet. I have some homemade mushroom soup leftover -- I think I am going to add it to the new soup after it's done. For the kids: orzo pasta with peas and a creamy sauce. I've got cheesecake and blueberry cobbler leftover for dessert.

Went to the famer's stand and got some cherry tomatoes, sweet potatoes, apples, and marinated mushrooms. Can't wait for the CSA to start. Getting a box of vegetables every week is a good way to learn to eat in season and locally.
Also got some strawerreis and bananas to put through the Vitamix. THose things rock!

I love the combination of bananas and strawberries!!!!!

Introducing Lilyana Regina:
My great-granddaughter born yesterday, 7 lbs 14 oz and 20" long
Precious if I do say so myself.
Chemo today - relatively uneventful but blood counts are low. It's a good thing I've got two weeks to recover. We're going out for steak tonight so that will help the iron/protein levels.
I like strawberries and bananas separately but I don't care for yogurt flavored with strawberries and bananas.

Michelle: Precious baby...what a gift from God they are!
Landed in Florida today and now it's raining here!! At least it's not cold..lol! My DGGD's birthday party is tonight and it's going to be hard for me to drive in this hard rain with my compromised vision...hoping it will let up soon.
No food in house so ate a Lean Cusine...it was actually good...anything is when you're hungry!

Easy dinner tonight. Pork (chunks of pork tenderloin) with mango curry sauce (jarred sauce) over brown rice. Maybe steamed cauliflower for a side. DH is the curry fan. Not quite sure what an appropriate side would be.
Waiting for a review on the cinnamon-colored Vitamix! I'm not sure I would use a blender enough to justify the price tag.

So, both my husband and I bought milk. So we have two bottles of milk when we hardly use one! So, the steamroller began. Make ricotta. Pull out some ragu from the magic freezer. Oops, not enough. Make another sauce. Make the pasta. Roll the pasta. Cook some of the pasta, but leave some raw in case I don't need it. Cut the pasta bits for soup. Assemble the lasagna.
All this because we had an extra carton of milk. Be careful in the dairy aisle my friends. Be careful in the dairy aisle.

Freeze it Susan!
Michelle, I want Great grand babies lips!!!! I would look sooo hot with them! Or not....
I came home today and puppy, spaghettios, yuck, I buy them just for dd, hummus and pita bread were all gone.
I'm guessing either dd or a deranged robber was here.
For dinner, a frozen dinner! I had a craving for a TV dinner, go figure.

Bedo- Enjoy your tv dinner- I bought baloney last week- sometimes we want unhealthy things, enjoy!
Carrie- Enjoy your boat ride and mini quiches. I am always so jealous hearing about your boat rides, I miss my boat.
Michelle- Congrats on your great granddaughter! BEAUTIFUL! You are such a lucky woman to get to see a great grand child. Enjoy her.
I woke up feeling awful. Sore throat, headache, ear ache etc. I didn't go grocery shopping or get much done at all. The boys just played and we went to the neighbors. Dh took the boys to the race track where they have a night where the kids can ride bikes on the track. I decided to stay home and relax while they went
So we have no dinner planned. I fed the kids some peanut butter and jelly sandwiches before they left and Dh and I are talking of ordering a pizza when he gets home. To be honest I am just ready for bed.0 -
Michelle, congratulations on your darling ggd! So sweet!
Laurie, hope you feel better really soon! Nice that you got a small break tonight while your "boys" undoubtedly enjoyed themselves.
Susan, I'd be taking that extra bottle of milk to the little boys next door before ever thinking of putting it to the creative use you did! Always amaze me.0 -
Pan fried steak, with a side of asparagus. Topping off with a strawberry-banana smoothie.
This is a fun thread, get to talk about food all the time.
Cute baby!

Adorable Michelle.
The reason I have not been here in a while is my DH is in the hospital in liver and kidney failure. Long story short, this is the second time he has done this to me. Back in the mid 80's thinking he was invincible to alcohol almost died on me then, God must have been looking over him. After 2 months of dialyses his his liver got better and his kidneys began to function normally. 28 years later sneaking the hard stuff at his store, when I found out I hit the roof and said, if you don't stop immediately you are out of here!!!! Then he started to turn yellow, he would not let me bring him to the doctors but after 2 weeks of looking at him like that and knowing the signs, I called 911. I guess I'm too late. He is not expected to survive. My DD is flying in tomorrow to be with me and figure out what we are going to do about the business. Know anyone that likes old memorialbilia, rare coins and collectibles??
(((ALL)))

Oh Deb, I'm so sorry, this is truly horrible. Wishing you all the best.

Oh Deb.... There is truly nothing that I can say that will make sense of what has happened or make it even remotely OK... Just please know that I am thinking of you and your family and keeping you in my prayers.... Hugs to you....

Hugs Deb....... I don't know what else to say. :-(

Deb, I am so sorry to learn that you are going through this. I know that having your daughter with you will bring some comfort in the tough days ahead. (((((DEB)))))

Thank you everyone. I don't really know how long DD will be here, he owns a collectable shop here in town and I need to get his inventory out of there. He has a lot of material that is rare.
