G'day Kitcheneers

*holds head* seems I had an extra v&t last night bleeeeurgh!! Now that was really silly

Anyhoo, it's a gorgeous day and we've got a barbecue party to go to...I shall be doing a 'turn' of course - if I can remember lyrics and chords!

Thank-you for the tea lipstixgal, I need a gallon or so

Breakfast? I couldn't possibly, not just yet!

I wish y'all a fantastic day with smiles, laughter and love.

Good morning friends

Putting on a fresh pot of coffee and

for everyone...and setting out the apricot scones (they turned out fabulous...thanks for the recipe darkcrystal...I LOVE it).

I feel like baking cinnamon rolls this morning...the good yeasty kind loaded with brown sugar, melted butter, cinnamon and chopped pecans. Mmmmm...

This is gonna be a yardwork weekend for me I think...the yard needs mowing, the weeds need pulling, and the climbing roses at the front of the house grew so big with all the rain that they pulled the trellis over...think a little pruning is in order

Our fireworks are tonight...the little village we live in has a nice little display, we walk down to the park about 5 blocks from the house, sit on a blanket on the grass with the other 1,000 or so folks who live here, have a soft ice-cream cone with sprinkles, and watch the fireworks that they set off over the playing fields. Definitely "small town" but lots of fun.

Hope you're all having a nice leisurely Saturday morning

baby...miss you already

Good Morning DC, Incubus, Jo. Its a great day indeed , the weather is just great sunny skies and everything!! Jo you get to see fireworks. wow that's great we have the Macy's fireworks but only on TV I could never get down to Hudson County to find a space for my car and see them over the Hudson River

anyway, today is just a lazy day, next week is school again Ugh!! maybe laundry need underwear lol have a great day everyone!!

lipstixgal · 07-03-2010, 12:53 PM

Well took a walk for the dogs of course!! Had some nice coffee latte with some chocolate and a croissant with butter and jam sweet!! Jo don't work too hard on the lawn its getting hot out there, hopefully the dogs will sleep and I can watch tv!!

JustJo · 07-03-2010, 01:24 PM

Iced latte sounds delicious Lips

I went out and mowed the front yard, then weeded the really overgrown, horrible side of the front yard...took about an hour and a half and I came in sweaty and filthy. Straight into the shower and laid down for a little bit...and now I'm just flaked out in front of the tv watching the comedy channel. Still have to do the back yard, but that might wait until tomorrow!

Hope everyone's having a great day!

Hi Jo yeah the iced latte was wonderful and the croissant too!! So you laid down for a bit that's good you need it. Just talking to a nice young women via messenger but she is in Africa visiting her sick sister which I don't believe one bit. Anyway, it wasted some time for sure. What's for dinner?? Anybody? I just have my Jenny to have that's it and spinach!!

lipstixgal · 07-03-2010, 04:44 PM

Well just watched the weather report and its going to get hot for like 4 days in a row. Oh my thank G-D for a/c to keep us cool!! Leaving a little chocolate for a good night snack

JustJo · 07-03-2010, 05:18 PM

I'm feeling like breakfast for dinner...nice cheese omelette, hash browns, fresh strawberries and cream, crispy bacon...crazy, I know

Hope everyone is having a nice 4th!

you made some scones? awesome and apricot sounds brilliant!

i will be spending the day and night tomorrow with my sister and her family at their beach house...it is in a village that does not have a fireworks ordinance so weill be watching all of her neighbors blow themselves up! She said it is quite a show, it goes on for hours, we can see perfectly from her porch, and they pretty much light up the whole beach....so no driving and no $ and plenty of adult beverages once the cherub goes to sleep

breakfast for dinner is always a hit with me- bacon and eggs delish any time but it seems especially good at dinner, i'll never understand it....i guess it is such a warm cozy smell- and having it at the end of the day when all of the hard stuff is over, instead of at the beginning of the day with the hard stuff ahead of you- just makes it that much cozier!

or something

freyja · 07-04-2010, 03:24 AM

Sneaking thru the kitchen on tip toes....just need coffee, heh.

Our Canada Day was great. One day of rest and then it was the 15th Dyke March Day of our 30th Pride. Weather was hot hot hot. The crowds were awesome.....and if you have any kind of social phobia, the streets were not the place to be, it was one huge street party.
I don't usually do the festivities two days in a row.......I'm not 19 anymore, so I have to pick and choose my partying very carefully *hee hee*

Wishing all my favourite American friends here a very happy 4th of July celebration.

All the best,
*freyja*

lipstixgal · 07-04-2010, 08:12 AM

Good Morning Kitcheneers!! What should we have for breakfast. How about pancakes cooked to order with some scrambled eggs and cheese, bacon, sausage, hash browns, and toast. Sets out strong coffee and

tea for those who want it!! I see that freyja came in this morning early, hope you had fun at Pride Freyja!!

Zimmeh · 07-04-2010, 08:28 AM

Happy Fourth of July Everyone!!

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday and have plenty of fun!!

JustJo · 07-04-2010, 08:55 AM

Good morning all

Thank you for breakfast Lips

I had a little bit of a late start this morning...making a leisurely Sunday breakfast for my son (not something I normally get to do since he's usually with his father) and enjoying that 2nd cup

now that he's been picked up.

Today is another yard work day for me...and maybe getting stuck into some housework as well...with a kid, 4 cats and 2 dogs it's a constant job. Nice to know that I have Monday off as well....yay!

Getting ready to do a bit more "possession pruning" too...I've done a bunch but realize that I haven't missed a single thing that I got rid of...and need to get packing some more as well...think my plate is full for the weekend.

Hope you all have a great day!

baby

Jo do you know if the banks are closed tomorrow?? I also have to start pruning too. I have a lot of stuff that has to be hauled away for sure. I'm moving in September after school is out so I should start too. I'm just going to box that stuff up and call the Vietnam Vets to come and get it, they pick up anything you don't want and for free!! You have 4 cats and two dogs that's a lot of work for sure I don't envy you at all!! Maybe I'll start looking in the garage to see what is out there/

Want to bake those scones I think I have everything for them, just can't find the flour damn it!! Anyway, have a great day everyone... gail

lipstixgal · 07-04-2010, 10:18 AM

Gosh I'm just dying for something sweet wanted to make scones need cream and I don't want to go to the store, too hot outside!!

lipstixgal · 07-04-2010, 11:52 AM

Well Gail was a bad girl, she had a brownie with delicious icing on it and chocolate too. g-d its hot outside no walking today!!

lipstixgal · 07-04-2010, 03:44 PM

Well since I had that delicious brownie earlier it'll have to be pizza by Jenny CraIG!! with asparagus on it. Its cooling so I will wait until I can eat it. Does anybody know if the banks are open tomorrow?? I don't think so because school doesn't start until Tuesday UGH more classes to study for and internship too!!
