mmmmmmmmmmm ICE CREAM!... although I kinda like mint chocolate. Refreshing with that sweet bitter dark chocolate. =)


Ps. I've been ignoring my phone for the past 2 weeks. Looks like I'm going in M.I.A phase =/ I let the close ones no I'm going through my alone phase just so they know they shouldn't be calling the police anytime soon. yeh, I think I'm going to buy one of those party size ice cream buckets. LOL and be gluttonous till this phase passes.

Obviously we all are individuals, so it's a myriad of reasons a lot of people are feeling this "blah" "leave me the f@ck alone feeling." I believe that part of it is the changing of the seasons (weather), and it's about to get into the full fledged holiday season, and that can be very stressful for people. It doesn't stress me out anymore, but I don't have a traditional viewpoint on that stuff, so I may be the odd woman out. The only holiday I can't stand is New Year's Eve - actually it's that horrible, depressing song, "Auld Lang Syne(sp)" whoever thought THAT song would make people want to ring in the new year were smoking some serious dope. Anywho, I don't like it because it's like looking back on the past year, and all the crap I didn't accomplish; versus looking back and see all I did accomplish. It's just perspective. With that being said, I don't want my lady bullettes being sad and depressed; however, do what you must, then shake it off get yourself all dolled up (or dressed up, or whatever you want) and go out and do something fun and nice just for you!
Sadly, I don't have anything additional to impart, but being a fellow bullette, I know what each of you are saying, and trust me SeeingRed, I had a whole semester of no phones, etc, when I was in high school. I did the very bare minimum: get up, shower, go to school, come home and go to bed. I needed to do that for whatever reason. Now, I may get into a bit of a funk every now and again, but it rarely last more than a long weekend. I allow myself to do whatever I want to do from Friday - Monday morning - laugh, cry, eat & drink. It is cathartic and does help a lot!

C'mon ladies. *tugging on blouses* Let's all get our Christmas baking finished. Candies made. Salt it in the freezer and blast on out of freaking Dodge and PARTY. If nothing else drunken toffee/sugar cookie/fudge time will be a complete blast.



Yes, I've been to and had these parties and (for the most part) they are a blast! As long as I have my thermos of Hot Chocolate and Bailey's while I cook, I'm all good! A thermos of that, and ALL is right in the world. Then, I finish cooking and go snuggle under a blankey and sit in front of the fireplace listening to holiday music. Le sigh...life is so friggin' good sometimes!
Ugh, except for one year, one of my friends had a friend who had this (beautiful) home in the mountains of AZ. Long story short. A whole bunch of highbrow (see: uber snobby) women, all annoying and full of themselves went up for a long weekend to bake cookies and (allegedly) have fun! Me and my friend drove up on that Saturday, and all of them had gone up on Friday. When we got there, they were all wasted and NO cookies had even been started. My friend (an Aqua) and I, just took over the kitchen and cooked like 6 different types of cookies, fudge and a few cakes. Those lazy itches didn't do S# $ ! and to top it all off, when you leave, you are supposed to clean the place, as the ladies family and friends sometimes would go up there, so not only did I have to drive my a $ $ up to cook for some ungrateful wretches, but I also had to clean up after them. Ummm, yeah, you can already know where this story is headed. My horns got low, the smoke started coming out of my nostrils, and everybody had to get outta' my way. My friend looked at her friend and was like, "You shouldn't have pushed her, you guys are rude and showed your a $ $ es, now she's about to show you hers." Suffice to say, I wasn't invited back the next year πŸ™‚ Hey, sometimes the truth hurts, but I had to tell each and everyone of those little itches EXACTLY what I thought of them and their entitled behavior. I won't even go into the night we went out to the bars, and like (some) selfish, jealous women can be. One of the ladies hit it off with a guy, and the others were green w/envy and were pissed that she wanted to stay. I was like, "She's a grown a $ $ women, if she wants to have fun, leave her alone!" They were not a happy bunch. Blech, those kinds of women I can do without! Than

LOL No snobs allowed, only down to earth people need apply. And honestly you'd not have wanted to go back. I wouldn't have. So bring the thermos, I'll supply the Bailey's and other, and we can all giggle around my old stove. πŸ™‚

I would always get Christmas card from high school mate, his wife wrote them out. Those bragging ones that about curdled the contents of your stomach. I wrote one out, sent it to them about the kids owning companies, learning several languages, teaching the cats to speak, etc. I didn't get one after that. πŸ˜›

HAHAHAHAAAAAAAA! I friggin' love it! Yeah, who the f@ck ever thought those cards were a good ideaβ€”? I mean, I know tons of people who do that "year end wrap up letter" to family and friends. I received and read two of them several years ago, and it about made me want to puke on the spot. After that, whenever I get those now, I just put them in the shredder πŸ™‚ mean, yeah, whatever! LOL!

Yes, holiday food is the bane of ALL dieters and health conscious folks existence!!! Well, it is for me! I eat more sugary crap from mid-November through January 1 than I do in the entire year! I bake so much to give away that I friggin' ALWAYS have to sample a "bit." The thing is, I'm a salty/savory person NOT a sweet person (well, we all know I'm not sweet πŸ˜‰ ).
So yes, I really don't eat a lot of food, I just eat stuff I SHOULDN'T be eating!

^^^^yes, a little bit goes a long way! Even when I saute w/my olive oil, I typically will always put just a dab of butter in it! It really deepens the flavor and adds a bit of love to the dish πŸ™‚
My mac & cheese will put somebody into cardiac arrest I'm afraid, as it has a full stick of butter, 4-6 types of cheese and full D milk (among other secret ingredients). I don't like milk at all, I drink soy milk if it's in my cereal, but with cooking; especially this type of stuff, it has to be the real deal! No screwing around!

β€” Neil Diamond. πŸ™‚ *homer gargle* Homemade mac and cheese. I'm the same way, I drink soy but to cook it's da moo moo juice. Has to be. I made this bacon/potato casserole enrobed in white sauce. How can you go wrong with smoked pork, potatoes and milk/butter/onion/thickener? Good winter grub. Ah geesh, now I want chicken pie. *fidgets*
I handed the recipe over to a family friend and she tried to low fat it, her daughter said it was an abomination. LOL

Tomorrow is my mom's birthday.
I've been really missing her a lot lately,and I guess that's part of my problem.😒
I didn't ever really face her death like I should have,because everything involved with it was so horrible and I have so many regrets.so it comes at me in flashes sometimes.



((((Hugs))) 😒 I know, we discussed this then...I can't imagine it Bella, I really can't. I hug my mom daily because I know I am blessed to have her, and since I just recently moved back to the state where I was raised, I enjoy the time I have with her (well, both of my parents; even though my dad aggravates the snot outta' me).

You must have been in my kitchen a couple weeks ago, because I make something similar. Called Baked Potatoe Casserole! Whew, makes you want to smack somebody it's so good!
Awww ladies. We must always be thankful for everyday; even the bad ones. I have a bunch of sayings on this dry erase board by my desk, and the first saying is, "Live today as if it's your last!" I'm not successful everyday in doing that, but most days I try!

(((Group Hug)))

β€” Yes, everything does happen for a reason, and as much as I needed to come home to get some stuff straight; my being around helps them so much. They are glad I'm back too.

Yes, it all sucks. I have shared her loss with you ladies because I know you care. I just as keenly feel the loss of your mother Bells. Not my intent at all to 'one up you' with loss. I was having a share because grief unites us all. I love the both of ya's, you're my sisters in heart.


β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€” Yeah!
