DR Laura re: the macaroni i make not being Kraft Dinner.

Well i cannot say that the 3 year old will love it. But she won't spit it out.  One plus is that she is excited i am making it. A second plus is that they have a chef at daycare who prepares mac and cheese. And i would have to bet it's nothing like Kraft Dinner. :)

I had a dream last night. I'm trying to exercise and eat better so i can fit into the rest of my pants that are too tight.

Anyhow in my dream i weighed myself and weighed 770 lbs (a bit upsetting). Then i think i readjusted it in my dream to 270 and then 170 (still very upsetting). Now i'm scared to do it!

The funny thing is that in my dream i weighed more than my sis who is pregnant (although i actually might anyhow since she has been gaining weight slowly and started at 115).

Tuesday morning greetings!  It's icy here in SW Ohio today and I've chickened out of driving to Dayton for the 2 meetings I was supposed to attend this afternoon.  Not having to drive 25+ miles in nasty weather was one of my main reasons for retiring.

DR SWW, re: the mac and cheese.

I know my niece does like what she is used to. Yesterday her daycare started started their swimming class again and she was adamant that she wanted to be her same grouping (even though her best friends were in a different group).

I guess the macaroni could go either way.  But i'm hoping that because she gets to try these foods at daycare, and they are different from what she is used to, that she will accept a different macaroni and cheese.

Another plus is that she hasn't had it a million times.

Fingers crossed.

I fast forwarded through Superstars of Dance. Still don't like the show. BUt i did really enjoy the US's last number (the hip hop group routine). It got very good scores!

My mom reported on last night's THE BACHELOR (spoilers i guess).

.

Apparently they showed a lot of previews for the season. And the girl who dumped him (diana?) comes back and says she wants him to pick her????

Good morning, all! I am stuck at home today awaiting a delivery. I will work this morning on the BIT edits and then return to THE MOST HAPPY FELLA for the afternoon.

Last night I watched the Northern Ballet production of A CHRISTMAS CAROL, which I like very much, and I may drag out the DVD of AMAHL AND THE NIGHT VISITORS to celebrate Epiphany.

I've decided my next read is going to be the Annotated Sherlock Holmes, snce the only Holmes book I've ever read is the "Hound of the Baskervilles." I figure Holmes and Watson should last me through March or April.

Today's first project is to vacuum, so I shall begin.


 OH I love the stories!  I shoul pull out mine as well.  I read them all a few years back and they would be fun to re-visit!

Good morning !  Perhaps ypu just need to bring a humidifier into the room - or even a pot of water on top of the radiator (it that's feasible)

TOD:

--Moon Over Miami  A particular favorite of mine
--Wake Up and Live (silly but great songs, great supporting cast and vocals by Buddy Clark)
The Gang's All Here-- great supporting cast and if nothing else, the sheer camp value and dubious taste of Busby Berkeley are worth the whole thing.

DR Jose re: macaroni

Is it better to make the cheese sauce on the stove and then pour it on the noodles and bake.

Or is it just as good to just put the cheese on top of the noodles shredded but not made into sauce?

By reading your description i see that it will be less saucy if i bake it (which is what i figured).

I think i may just make the sauce on the stove and keep a bit of the saucy mac& cheese. And then i'll bake most of it. And ask her which way she likes it better for next time!

Thanks everyone for the help.

I thought today might be the day to restore my strength prior to rejoining the rest of the world.

A couple of hours ago, I was amazed at how easily my night passed without coughs or "goopings".

And 10 minutes ago, I awoke thinking I need to see my doctor because I felt this well on Saturday only to have a relapse.

As the 10 minutes passed, I became aware that things are never what they seem.  There are "new" developments in this story.  So...it's definitely off to my doctor before anything else.

DR VIXMOM do NOT buy the Power Juicer....it is louder than a power saw and your first dishwasher put together.

Notice how they have to yell when they are using it.....and it's noise has been toned down for the infomercial.

You will get your juicer AND hearing aid coupons when you order it.

The only thing that saved me last night was that my wallet was in a room with a  sleeping Vixdad

I don't know what will save me today

Tell yourself that whatever it is, you'll have to use it no matter how crummy you feel when it arrives.  If that leaves a foul taste, then don't buy it.

DR Jennifer - If you want sauce, then make a sauce.  If you just want "macaroni and cheese", then just mix up some macaroni and cheese.  -That "Option #3" seems to be a particularly Southern variation, and I know some people who prefer that.  However, it sounds like your niece wants "saucy", so give her "saucy".

Isn't there a funny line about a humidifier from Neil Simon's Last of the red Hot Lovers?  Something along the lines of these lines:

He:  Maybe you should sleep with a humidifier

She:  Don't worry, I'll get around to everybody!

Good morning!

Gray moved back into the area during the night, and it rained and rained. It's quite warm out, however, nothing like early January usually is.
