Jo's Kitchen (and yes, the coffee IS on...)

Zimmeh · 12-18-2010, 10:11 AM

((((Jo Jo)))),

Get to feeling better and soon! Breakfast outside sounds wonderful and thank you for breakfast.

Have fun at the movies today. I'm still trying to financially afford a trip to spend New Year's Eve in Miami. My old roommate in Orlando invited me and I'm hoping I can go!

Hugs to you and your family,

Zimmy

I'm still fighting a cold...so it's tea with lemon for me instead of coffee.

Poor Scoote had to work a killer day yesterday and could barely move when she got home. Luckily she's still asleep, so hopefully she'll get enough rest to feel a bit better today.

We're heading to the movies this afternoon since Rooster wants to see Tron...after that, who knows?

Hope you all have a wonderful Saturday!

Dear Jo: sorry to hear you are under the weather and hope you get to feeling well asap!!!

Yeah Zimmy for picking up the pencils and the sketch pad!!!! Did you get my card yet?

Today it was raining all day here in GA, very cold and miserable weather. I did take my daily walk though and oh boy what a nut I am to walk in that weather. So that being said I could sure use a nice large cutsie mug of hot chocolate with marshmellows please!!!

I have a recipe for home made hot chocolate that I would love to cook up for ya'll. I buy unsweet chocolate (preferrably the kind from South America), add sugar or sugar substitute, milk, boil it up slowly. Take off the heat, then set it back to boil up again. Then stir it (actually one holds the heavy stick with both palms and twist it back and forth quickly) with this wooden utensil one can find in Hispanic grocery stores; wooden and works up a great foam! Drink up everyone!!!

Please stay warm, dry and as healthy as possible!!! Crawing back under the covers with a good book!

Good Evening Kats,

Yes I did and thank you!! It is hanging on my front door next to Jake's card.

Thank you for the hot cocoa!

Night,

Zimmy

Good evening all

Chickens are almost done roasting and smell really good....have water on to cook the corn on the cob...and no idea if there will be anything else....might just be chicken, corn on the cob and bread & butter. My grandmother's idea of the perfect supper.

The call in nurse of my health insurance guided me to a diabetic-safe mucinex product....which is helping...but is also making me feel about half drunk (as she warned me might happen). I can see why she said "DON'T DRIVE"

Never fear....I think I can roast chickens in this state...and that's as dangerous as it gets around here tonight.

Zimmy, glad to hear you managed some soup....that's the best choice when you're feeling bad....warm, liquid...and hey, it's chicken soup! My inner Jewish grandma approves!

Morningstar...thank you for the cookies....we may be making some around here tomorrow (if I have my way). I just have to get the food dye for the icing...forgot I didn't have mine anymore (not the kind of thing you pay the movers to take 1300 miles).

Hugs to you all....enjoy the tail end of your weekend.

Good Night Everyone,

I am off to bed. I forgot my mom's banana bread yesterday, so I'm going to take it down to her tomorrow and pick up my books for January. I am looking forward to going back to college.

Hugs my friends,

Zimmy
