Next time you want to set the grill up, let me know, and I'll bring a big batch of those chops! And to give you an indication of what that marinade does to them, I'll tell you what the main ingredient for the marinade is- soy sauce!

Just thinking about them makes me super hungry- spaghetti casserole, please.[dinner]

Mutt's got supper ready, folks: spaghetti casserole, salad, and more cake
and ice cream for dessert.

Isn't this a great party we're having?!?!

Jim, glad you could make it in.

Joe, got two containers each fixed for you to take to work tonight.

Ever had Iowa-cut (inch-thick) pork chops, ladies? I have a marinade recipe that makes grill-cooked chops melt in your mouth!

Oh, and I'll take some of that stew for lunch, along with a chocolate-iced chocolate cupcake and death-by-chocolate ice cream...

<I just love it when I am making a post and accidentially hit the wrong key (which one I don't even know) and all of a sudden my post vanishes. [:(!] [:(] [:(!] > N O T


OK, now back to posting. HOPEFULLY

The bees are buzzing, the flowers are blooming, and Mook is having an affair. Geesh, I leave the diner for 24 hours and all #@$# breaks loose. [:o)] [:I] [}:)]

BYW Mookie. They do say the northern states are going to get a new storm. They seem to be dragging their feet on saying exactly when but you might want to check the local weather and see what they say. Locally, one of our weather guys is saying February is going to return to winter. But you know what they say, "If you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes and it will change." [;)] Spring arrives on March 20th, and GroundHog Day is this Thursday. Things could get interesting, but then again . . . . . . . . . . [8D]

It is short sleeve weather here today with a slight wind. The sun is out and so is the dog. [;)] She is having a short nap in the grass. [^]

Since it is so nice today, I might take her along while I go drop of the utility payments. She loves to go for a ride and everyone comments how "pretty" she is. [:)]

I made cheese dip at work last night so lunch here is left over cheese dip and tortilla chips. You know how is it, just had a hankering for cheese dip. [:p] [^]

Today is my Saturday. [B)] Yes, it is strange having a Saturday on Tuesday. But Tuesday and Wednesday days off are better (to me anyway) than Wednesday and Thursday. [B)]

I see we have had our 100,000th view. SO LET THE PARTY BEGIN


[C=:-)] [C):-)] [dinner] [bday] [{(-_-)}] [4:-)] [X-)] [oX)]


E N J O Y


I want a corner piece of that white cake with pretty red and blue flowers on white icing. Don't worry guys and gals, half of the cake is chocolate. [;)] I just like the white cake with white icing better. [;)]

Everyone Take Care Now, ya hear ! [:)]

How does chili cheese dogs sound tonight for anyone? All I need is an onion and I can prepare the rest for who's hungry.

It won't be like Skyline Chili, but it will be good.

Mookie, got done with produce. Got red potatoes, apples and oranges.

There has been a change in tonight's supper menu: Mutt is going to make
his grandmother's recipe for spaghetti casserole. He'll be going to the
store in a bit to get couple of ingredients we don't have on hand. That is
a very, very good recipe. Believe everyone will enjoy it!!

Cw is out producing and I am in the sun. But I know we have several very good cooks in the diner at different times. Maybe someone will suggest a specialty?

Yes, Larry, it IS lunchtime!! And for your lunch(dinner) enjoyment, we have
the following: beef stew, cornbread, garden salad or caesar salad.

The celebration cakes are: chocolate w/chocolate frosting; yellow cake w/
white frosting, and white cake w/white frosting (specially for JHH). Also
have plenty of ice cream: vanilla, neopolitan, chocolate, death by chocolate,
Snickers ice cream, and Oreo ice cream.

Believe the decorations in here look very nice. Mookie, you did a great job
with the decorations!!

Now, I just need to figure out something for supper tonight!! Maybe
Italian spaghettie w/ Texas garlic toast, and garden/Caesar salad.
Know I have plenty of the cakes to last until late tonight.

My brother was a stand-up comedian until he got hungry, even with all the tomatoes they threw at him. Always good to laugh - especially in the morning!

Ok - did Tree and Joe leaf together? (see, we really are related, at least in spirit!)

Anyone know where our famous duo went?

I just typed my stubby finners off, so need to rest - guess since Tree isn't here I can use the rocker and the electrified blanket. Getting a little colder. Guess winter may arrive fairly soon. Been a great fall.

Need a blueberry muff.....in for comfort. I love blueberry!
