hey girls, just a quick hello. I am really enjoying the pics from Scuby's dive and can't wait to hear all about it.
thanks again for the kind words about my Jessica. the banquet is next saturday. My daughter is home this weekend and it is so hard to keep my mouth shut about the happy news. Last night she went out and I was baby sitting my grand doggie. She is just too much fun. Not sure why we are paying for an apartment for the kid when she spends so much time at home but I love having her, she is just a delightful kid. I am so proud of her.
Lori, thanks for the drink with bourban, you knew I would love it!
Are we having a partay tonight? How about a flip flop party theme???? Just a thought......(and Karen can wear clogs)!
Cheers girls. And thoughts of peace and love to all.

Churchill Downs
The Mint Julep may be the official drink of the Kentucky Derby, but if you're looking to break from tradition and put your own spin on Derby Day imbibing, this cocktail from Blokes & Birds in Chicago offers some delicious inspiration. Named in honor of the racetrack that hosts Kentucky's famous horse race, this twist on the classic Mint Julep calls on fresh basil, pineapple and reposado tequila for a refreshing sipper that's a cinch to make, giving you plenty of time to jockey for a spot closer to the tv.
2 oz. reposado tequila
1 1/2 oz. fresh lime juice
1/2 oz. simple syrup (1:1)
6 fresh basil leaves
3 fresh pineapple cubes
Cubed and crushed ice
Tools: muddler, shaker, strainer
Glass: small Julep or rocks
Garnish: fresh basil leafIn the base of a shaker, gently muddle pineapple and basil. Add remaining ingredients and shake with ice cubes. Strain into a Julep cup or rocks glass filled with crushed ice. Garnish and serve with a straw.

"Yes, how do you prepare your chickens?"
"Nothing special sir," he replied. "We just

Trying to plan out my summer....DH doesn't mind if I go to Isreal again this summer and gone while DD is home....I need to take an ethics class that is being offered July 9 and 10th, so if I go to Israel I either need to go before DD goes to camp or be gone after she gets home from camp....also trying to figure out if I can crew for the Avon 3 day....so I have my work cut out for me to decide on my summer plans......Some of those plans include walking, walking and walking and drinking lots of water, water and more water for I can take off 10 - 15 #.....Well, going to go read some other threads...sweet dreams...
