I.....I couldn't fall asleep until......past 8am. http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ad/insomnia.gif The rain...it was raining....all night....and morning....


http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ad/insomnia.gif I found an internet page with lists of safe kitty foods and I ... http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ad/insomnia.gif kept reading and reading... And decided to cancel my order for California Naturals....

Okay! OKAY! Stop! I'll tell you!! If the truth must be known, last night after dinner.....Mom and...Mom and I went to Starbucks and...we shared an espresso brownie http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ad/insomnia.gif and and, jeeezus, could the espresso in the brownie do this damage? http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ad/insomnia.gif

......or is it just my grocery high?

Nevertheless, I forced myself up and it's now 12:20pm. I have to get ready for my grocery delivery now!

>If you don't go to sleep now, you're going to be asleep at 1:00 and miss your grocery delivery!!!!

Fear not! Nothing, not even endless sleep deprivation can stop...the Grocery Avenger! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/transport012.gif

>The thought of cardio made me sick!

YEAH! You got that right! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/dance009.gif

I hope you had a good evening of organizing and then relaxing!

http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ad/insomnia.gif JEN - That's awful that you still feel weird...or at least the taste in your mouth does? LOL. Anyway, yuck. I hope it goes away.

>I couldn't tell you the last time I even ate a cookie, or cake, or a donut, or anything fun for that matter, LOL!!!

Oh yeah, me either. http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/scared/scared0005.gif

>What did you decide for the next slow cooker meal???

Well, of all the recipes I've got in my CROCK POT RECIPE FILE, http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/happy/happy0036.gif it's looking like White Beans and Sun-Dried Tomatoes stew is going to be right on time. Most of the other ones call for about 8 hours on slow, and who am I to rush greatness? The white bean one takes about 4-6 hours on low. So I'm thinking to go for that! Woo hoo!

http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ad/insomnia.gif JENNIFER - One more day! http://bestsmileys.com/numbers/1.gif YAY!

>ONE day til my Day Off, no, I'm not excited or anything....

http://bestsmileys.com/numbers/1.gif http://www.mysmiley.net/imgs/smile/party/party0011.gif



Okay! Now I must be off to put on my bra to welcome my partner in crime, the Grocery Deliverer! http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/transport019.gif




Oh. Today is a cardio on my rotation http://www.freesmileys.org/smileys/ad/insomnia.gif

Yeah. Ha. Yeah.


Cheers out to everyone else, and a hug in hopes that Michele is all better!

Have a nice day! :D
 
THEEEEEEE

HILLS! ARE ALIVE!!

WITH THE SOUNDS OF CROOOOCK POOOOT!

After seeing all my veggies, lentils and fresh parsley, I couldn't help but be called by Creamy Vegetarian Lentil-Mushroom Soup!


And so it was!

High for 5-6 hours....

...and now that it's in there, here's a review I just read among the gleaming about how delicious this soup is.

>i wouldn't recommend cooking this on hi at all.

LMAO.

Keep your fingers crossed.
 
IT SMELLS GOOD!!!
IT SMELLS GOOD!!!
IT SMELLS GOOD!!!
IT SMELLS GOOD!!!
IT SMELLS GOOD!!!


It's bubbling! :)
 
Hello Haters.

August-What time is dinner?

Today is my LAST day of work for this week. It's here. The snow report,of course, is 1-4" by Sat. AM. The salt and shovel are still out.

Last night, I finally did HSTA. HSC is WAY more fun. Tonight, I'm leaning towards LM, but SB,LIC,and IMax2 are possibilities.

Tomorrow morning, I plan on sleeping in but I'm sure I will have to tell Seville and Madrid to go back to bed. They understand "it's saturday, go back to bed, we don't have to get up."

Have a Great Day!
 
I don't have time to post right now, BBL, but dying to know how the soup is? I thought that one sounded really good - I LOVE mushrooms!!!!! Was this reciped posted in OD?
 
I can't find the emoticon that is burping and rubbing its round, full belly.


:p


MS. CROCK DOES IT AGAIN!!!!! SCORE!!!!!

It was really delish! I had two big bowls of it. I had it with a spinach salad and whole wheat bread with pesto on it. OH GAWD!

L-U-S-T! }(


Jennifer - Have a kick-butt day off!!

Dana - You know, I copy pasted so many recipes into my files, I don't know what came from who or where...except for the one that's titled Sloopy Joes a la Michele LMAO. Would you like it? I think it's on Recipezaar but I can easily copy it here if you'd like! I put a ton of brown mushrooms in it and YUMBORINO!


:D

I can't believe it's past 9pm and I'm not asleep yet. Actually, I've started cleaning out my wardrobe closet LOL in hopes to find a spot for the humidifier. :*
 
Yeah, success!!! Yes, please post the recipe if you have some time. I still need to make the lentil sloppy joes. I have the ingredients, just need to make it. Maybe I'll do that on Monday, that way I'll have lunch for the week.

This morning is dragging. Urgh!!!
 
Hi! Hi!

Oh wow, I wanted to post earlier but my friend, the one who had breast cancer, called and we talked for a looooong time. She's doing really well in terms of her recovery from breast cancer, but now she might have rheumatoid arthritis or lupus ;( . She's in a fair amount of pain, especially in her arms, hands, and knees, and she just started a new medication for it. Please remember her in your prayers. It's just so upsetting -- she's been through so much and now THIS! She's a trooper, though, and has a very good attitude.

I'm just ROTFLMAO at Augie's crockpot cookery escapades! I'm so excited about your soup! Oh hey, there's nothing wrong with using the high setting. I use it all the time. I'm a procrastinator -- I HAVE to! That lentil sloppy joes cooks in about 3 - 3 1/2 hours on high.

Hi Dana, Jen, Jennifer, Cuz, Robin (I miss you)!

I have to go -- I have a bazillion errands to run today. I'll BBL if I can. :* :* :*

Sorry I didn't get here in time to play :-(
 
I'm STILL cleaning my closet LMAO. It's midnight now. Oh gawd.

But I found places for my humidifier and....my crock pot, too! WOW!


Dana - Here's the recipe! And here's the link :

6) 4 servings.


ETA : I ate it without the sour cream and it was yum!


Michele - I'm sorry to hear about your friend and her new challenge. Though having won cancer, hopefully this will be nothing for her. I'll send good vibes.

>That lentil sloppy joes cooks in about 3 - 3 1/2 hours on high.

That's good to know. }(



I've GOT to put the piles of crap in a bag and stuff it somewhere where I can't see it and try to get to sleep now. The main objective (finding storage space) was accomplished so for now I'm satisfied!

Or I might feel satisfied because I had another bowl of lentil soup. Actually, I'd say it's more a stew.

Night guys!

Oh, I have an early meeting tomorrow, so sorry in advance for not starting up our thread!


:*
 
G'night Augie!!

>I've GOT to put the piles of crap in a bag and stuff it somewhere
>where I can't see it

ROTFLMAO!!

^^^^^5's for your major cleaning, sorting, decluttering!

I'm on my way out the door now -- I'll see y'all later this afternoon, or possibly not until tomorrow. :*
 
Thanks for posting that August. It looks delish!!!!

Michele I'm so sorry about the news your friend got. I will keep her in my prayers. You didn't say how your appt went yesterday?

Later haters!
 
Hello Haters.

It's official, No work tomorrow. I get to sleep in, be lazy, go to Meijer without a BIG crowd, eat lots, church, etc..

Plus, I get to shovel snow too!! Detroit is off, and so is South Haven.

My workout was LM, Sat might be LIC or Imax2.

Ok, time for bed.
