The meat loaf and mashed taters are now available for your dining
pleasure (or consumption, whichever you prefer). Have German
Chocolate cake w/ice cream for dessert.

Meatloaf, huh? I guess I can loaf it or leave it.

Cher, I hope you're not offended, but I usually keep plenty of steak sauce handy (Heinz 57 or A-1) for dipping bites of meatloaf in.

I wish I could loaf for the rest of the day! Interesting morning...hi, Mook!

CW.....You might even put chocolate ice cream on my breakfast cake.....Unusual for breakfast but believe I could handle it....It must run in the family....Remember years ago when daughter was young....she ate spaghetti at the Crystal Palace in Disney World for breakfast.....

Hmm - someone left a plate of pecan rolls on the counter.

No! I didn't eat any!

But I did lick them all to make sure they were fit to eat. Yep - they are!

Brought in some macaroni salad. It's not one of my favorites, that's why you are getting it! I think it is a distant relative of Jello - both come from the family of Ugh!

Evening/morning all.....

Jim, I got bad news, especially for anyone who buys fuel near the Atlanta area. Watching CNN to check on the Katrina situation, apparently one station is charging $5.99 for diesel fuel. OUCH!!!!

Now that I just ruined everyone's appetite, including my own, I'll just take something light, and be in later for something else.

Lastly, a big welcome to all the new customers in the diner. Stick around, you'll have some fun.

James, [#welcome] to both the forums and the Diner !!
There aren't too many rules around here,but,one thing you DON'T
want to do,is get the 'cook' mad at you.She is a very short 'lady' and you
might be in line for a "level swing"; If you need that explained in depth,
send me a personal e mail,and I'll clarify for you.[:D][}:)]

Kevin,I'm guessing that flash/strobe pictures(especially at night) are sort
of out of the question ?!?!

Modelcar,I don't really want to give away anything,but I think CW is planning
on either sending you a piece of that cake,or possibly another one. And I think
it's been routed the very,very long way !![:D][}:)]
