And because 3 nights a week of BIG BROTHER is evidently not enough for me, I have started watching BIG BROTHER Australia on Youtube.

Have you been watching Big Brother London?  Leslie Jordan is one of the two Americans in the house, the other being Gary Busey.  Ugh.

Leslie Jordan was a hoot on Wll & Grace as well as his many other sitcom appearances.  He makes me laugh!

My credit union cancelled my debit card due to the long ago breach at Target.

And they cancelled the replacement debit card that they sent to me last week, which I hadn't even used yet, due to the breach at Home Depot. 

Same thing happened with my credit union credit card and Target, but have yet to hear anything about the Home Depot breach.  But then, haven't been to Home Depot in a while.

Does a peanut butter cup s'more have the marshmellow and stuff inside the peanut butter cup?   I do like marshmellows. But not sure if I would like anything besides that and the chocolate and peanut butter.

I guess I should have been more clear -- make a regular S'more with graham cracker, toasted marshmello and chocolate.  But in place of the chocolate -- use a peanut butter cup.  OY, making me drool as I type this!  BTW, went to the store today and had to pick up a peanut butter cup!  LOL

DR Jennifer do you make S'mores in Canada?

[Jane]

S'more made with peanut butter cup.



I'm not sure what the bottom one is.

[Jane]

Traditional S'mores.

Before those chocolate Christmas trees we will need these:

Love these.

[John G.]

I want some smores with peanut butter cups or chocolate bars. And I want them now.

Watching "Thrill of a Romance" with Esther Williams and Van Johnson. It's not very good, but the music has been wonderful.

Went to a restaurant tonight for Diez y seis de Septiembre. I ordered street tacos, one each of chicken, beef and pork. The chicken and beef stank. Badly. So, we tried to tell the owner. He shot back with this very condescending tone that the food was fresh. That only made matters worse. My friend Bonnie got into an argument with the guy about the way he was treating us, and it all ended badly. We ended up paying for the horrible mess.

I'll never go back, needless to say.

[vixmom]

well it was a busy day

although  I had a lot to do at work  having  my two  co workers back  made life much easier and I was out of the office by  5:45 (my 'scheduled"  end of day is 5:30  )

[singdaw]

I'll never go back, needless to say.

Did you try yelling, "Do you know who I AM?"


 

[singdaw]

DR vixmom, I am glad to hear that recovery is running apace amongst your co-workers.

[singdaw]

I'm afraid I am too tired to help make much progress toward PAGE 6.

[vixmom]

I am head of social ministry and  my church and I have has a collection going all summer for items to put together kits for our  fall mission trip  (I call it Socks and Sandwiches)

We collected  toothbrushes with cases, toothpaste, soap, washcloths, socks, deodorant,combs, shampoo,  baseball caps, and individually wrapped hard candies

I had put up a schedule so hoping that people would bring an items each week so it would be easy to count and sort and store  but , God Bless their hearts, they brought things in any which way  and tied them  up in  plastic bags with eighteen  knots  so everything ended up in  bags  in a big pile in the bag of the storage closet (this closet is about 8' x 25') 

[vixmom]

this closet is also where we keep all the special events  stuff ( plates, silverware, cups, chafing dishes , pans, tablecloths, vases, centerpieces salts and pepper shakers etc)


 

[vixmom]

and my coffee hour supplies are in there in a big  cabinet



and the youth ministry has all their  stuff in there,



and all the dry goods for the soup kitchen

[vixmom]

and starting next week we are starting our clothing drive

[vixmom]

so big as the close is it needed some organization

[vixmom]

when I was at BJs  on Sunday I found a shelving unit on sale and with a $15  coupon  I  bought it for $45 - all metal  6 foot high, four foot wide  with four adjustable shelves and went together with no tools  I put similar units in my basement and they work  fantastically , they hold a lot of weight

[vixmom]

so the Vixter and I popped up to church  dragged all my socks and sandwiches donations out of the closet, built the shelving unit and started sorting out all the donations

 

[vixmom]

At 7:30  I had a committee  meeting for an hour and then  I went back  to  the closet to finish up  i finally let  about 9:30

[vixmom]

when I got home Vixdad had just gotten home and neither of us had eaten yet so we grabbed the Vixter and we went off to the local diner

[vixmom]

Vixdad had the shrimp salad sandwich


the Vixter (who had eaten dinner)  had a toasted bagel

and I had my beloved  Rustic Paninni made ,as I always request it, sans panini -  I do not care for the bread -- but the inisde... broiled chicken breast, asparagus, roasted red pepper, portobello mushroom,mozzarella cheese   served with a reduced balsamic vinegar... andi substitute a baked potato for the fries

lovely!

[vixmom]

so not a riveting series of events  but the reason why I have not been here all evening

[vixmom]

I am afraid there will be no page  six  although I am doing my best to get us to page five at least

[vixmom]

darn  how many on a page again?

[John G.]

I'll never go back, needless to say.

Did you try yelling, "Do you know who I AM?"


 

Never. And I wasn't the one yelling. In fact, I said nothing. But if I had been asked, I would have corroborated how disgusting the aroma of the food was.

[John G.]

Let's move this along.

[John G.]

Crawling toward page 5.

[John G.]

Inching closer.
