Good evening everyone. Thanks for the calzone! Dinner [dinner]

Weather is getting a bit cold and we'll have rain by later tonight. We could get snow as low as 500 feet altitude.

Good Friday morning, to all!  We're at 41 degrees this morning, with rain coming in from the Missouri area later on today.  May possibly have some heavy rain w/thunder somewhere around 3, 4 p.m.  High today is to be in the 50s, going down to 30 degrees by tomorrow morning. 

Coffee, cider, hot chocolate, hot tea and the fresh juices are ready this morning.  On the warmer bar, you'll find turkey bacon, sausage, pancakes and scrambled eggs.  And, also have bagels and bear claws, as usual.

Hope you all have a good morning, and I'll see you after awhile.

I put on a big pot of chili for lunch today along with sour cream, diced onions and 2 kinds of shredded cheese. Lot of crackers, (my favorite is Ritz Whole Wheat). Snow Snow Snow. 'Tis the season.

Bob, that chili sounds good (minus the sour cream, though, for me).  We also like the Ritz Whole Wheat crackers around here, along with whole wheat bread.  You may be getting snow, snow, snow; but we're getting rain, rain, rain here.  Sure makes for a dreary and gloomy day.  

I've got the FRIDAY FISH FRY ready and on the warmer bar:  fish are cod, perch, hallibut and flounder, along with fries, hushpuppies, and in the cooler:  cole slaw.  Desserts today:  apple, cherry, peach and pecan pies.  

Whether you're getting rain or snow, try to stay as dry, warm and safe if you have to go outside.

Hey Bob, that chili sounds like the ticket for me! Plenty of crackers too please!

And CW, looking forward to that fish fry too! I'll make some tarter and cocktail sauces to go along with it! Chef [C=:-)]

Cheers,

Never mind lunch - chili sounds good for supper.  Shredded cheese is always a plus, but I'm fond of French or Italian bread with chili.  Hope there's a pot of 'mild.'  Not fond of the stuff that sets your hair afire.

Good Saturday morning, everyone!  We have a morning temp of about 35 degrees this morning; can't remember right now what our high today will get up to.  But know it'll be cold!

Joe, thanks for making the coffee, juice and rolls this morning!!  Already have my coffee, and think I'll get some hot chocolate in a little bit.  

I have a question for all of you:  Tonight, would you prefer a big ole pot of chili, or do you want to have our regular Saturday Night Pizza Fest?  

Hope you all have a great day, and take care.  See you all later!

Good Sunday morning to all!  Joe, you're welcome about the pizzas last night.  Guess we'll have cold pizza for breakfast this morning, along with some turkey bacon, sausage, scrambled eggs, pancakes and waffles.  We also have fresh baked cinnamon rolls this morning.

Coffee, hot chocolate, hot cider, and hot tea are ready for this morning, and there's fresh oj, oj/tangerine, pineapple and apple juice, all ready and in the cooler.  

Our temp this morning is right at 32 degrees, and should get up to a high in the low 40s by about 4 p.m.  So, if you're getting out this morning, to go to Church services, be sure you bundle up.  (I know there are some of you who have cooler temps than we do here this morning!)

Do I have any requests for lunch today, or would you like sandwiches, like sloppy joes, burgers, hot dogs, etc.?

Can we have Sloppy Joe sandwiches made for lunch? I haven't eaten these things in years.

snow update

depending on who you listen too we can get anywhere from 3-9 inches of snow tonight plus blowing and drifting.Defineately going to be a white new years.2 mookie engines were hauling coal empties west and the y101 shoved more cars into the MAW siding.They had to have a track guy come look at the derail because it kept giving the dispatcher a red eventhough the crew reset everything.another day at csx.

For lunch today, I've fixed the following:  the last of the turkey has been heated, with gravy, for open-face turkey sandwiches w/mashed taters and gravy; beef stew w/cornbread, and am preparing a very special Tex-Mex dinner tonight, in honor of Ed's birthday, along with some special desserts.  And, because you can't get too many birthday wishes:  Ed,

Happy B-Day [bday] Happy B-Day [bday] Happy B-Day [bday] Happy B-Day [bday] Happy B-Day [bday] [bday
