Joey-loved the photo last night.

Ron I have been through those allergy shots-good luck!

I have never had peanut butter on a graham cracker, but it sounds quite tasty!

I am currently snacking on a combination of plain and roasted almonds, walnuts, baby carrots, sliced green peppers, and black grapes...which are all crammed into my little smiley face tupperware like container.

Snacks:

Microwave popcorn, shared with my pal Buster. Right now we're working our way through a couple of huge boxes of the stuff (bagged, not popped) that grandlad Alex's cub scout troop was selling. Not great, but fine for us.

Lemon turnovers.

Whatever I've got as leftovers from the night before.

Elmore-honest I read the entire unabridged Les Miserables that quickly. I was young, I read fast and without eating-much-or sleeping. These days I'm reading about 10 pages a night.

Back then, you didn't have Keith as a distraction, right?

When I was a kid, I loved dipping graham crackers in lemonade!

Hey, my mom didn't let us drink soda. $:-\$

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MICHAEL!!

HOPE YOU ARE HAVING A GREAT DAY!!

I attempted to send you a birthday cake but it didn't work.

Unfortunately, I like almost all of the snack foods that have been mentioned! My favorite potato chips are Reduced Fat Ruffles - great potato flavor - but sometimes I defeat the purpose by dipping them in sour cream.

Has anyone mentioned Pepperidge Farm Goldfish? They're especially good swimming in cream of tomato soup.

Nuts: I love cashews and almonds and the not-always-easy-to-find almond M & M's.

DR SWW - my son sold a considerable amount of that Scout popcorn on his way to becoming an Eagle Scout!

I also could eat a bag of Gardetto's (original flavor) at a time. Just delicious but they're expensive so I don't buy them often.

Oh, you see - now I want snacks all the livelong day and night. That is always what happens when the topic of the day is foodstuffs.

Oh, if we start removing the "h" from all our dances, not only will we be left with the rumba, we'll be left with the ora, the ca ca, the okey pokey, the carlston, and the simmy.

Hope DR Ron has a positive experience with the allergy investigation. I am SO blessed not to be at the mercy of this like so many of my friends.

DR vixmom - Your family weekend sounds delightful. I, too, am not quite finished putting away Christmas decorations. My husband bought me new plastic storage bins, so I'm sorting, pitching, and repacking everything.

Perhaps we need to add an h to all our dances. Then we would have the whaltz, the shwing, the shamba--and boy, oh boy, can that boy fhox throt!

More on TOD - Here is a simple dip recipe from one of my co-workers. It's especially good with Doritos or other taco chips:

2 8-oz blocks of cream cheese
1 Cup sour cream
1 packet taco seasoning powder

Mix thoroughly and chill before serving. You can get fancy by spreading the dip in a flat pan and topping with chopped lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and shredded cheese. My family, however, likes it just as a dip without all the fancy toppings.

Vixmom I shall watch for the package & notifying you upon receipt. I’m so excited. The last time I was sent something with a confirmation, the package was kept at the post office. I think confirmation by the post office was confused with the need for my signature.

Reading about your day of sledding brought back fond memories of wonderful times with my boys.

I am doing the okey pokey right here at my desk...

Because that's what it's all about!

Is anyone else having slowness issues with the site right now? I can't even get it to come up via AOL, and while it's coming up via Safari, it's coming up and working very slowly. I am not having this problem with any other site, via AOL or Safari.

Vixmom I can hardly contain my excitement. Egg bagels are one of my favorite snacks.

Speaking of snacks. Every once in a while I call Baskin Robbins and request English Toffee ice cream. I believe the last time they offered this flavor was five years ago. I call and often they send me coupons for ice cream. Saturday I received two, $2 coupons. I would rather have my English Toffee but the coupons help to ease my disappointment.

vixmom · « **Reply #88 on:** January 31, 2005, 10:12:44 AM »

I tried to refersh the page and was greeted with the

This page cannot be found " page.

When I refreshed AGAIN it worked

Is anyone here piqued about the site slowness?

Jane · « **Reply #89 on:** January 31, 2005, 10:13:46 AM »

While I was disconnected from the site no one else posted. Was I the only one who couldn't post?
