Jo's Kitchen (and yes, the coffee IS on...)

JustJo · 05-15-2010, 08:44 AM

Good morning hunies and homies

So nice to see all the smiling faces this morning....hugs to all...and more coffee of course

Belle, you're a sweetie for putting the first pot on.

Musicman...breakfast sounds wonderful. I made some fresh blueberry pancakes this morning with real maple syrup, so I'll add those to the spread for everyone as well.

The music is such a nice addition to the house

...I love to dance around barefoot in the kitchen

Course in my house that means you also have to work at not falling over a dog or a cat or both

All this talk of fountains Tommi and Sachita...you're reminding me that it's time to do the annual cleanout of the fish pond on the patio. It's an icky job, but the fish appreciate it! I do love the sound of a fountain. We've got a little turtle statue that spits water into the pond....and I find it very relaxing to sit on the swing and hear the sound of the water falling.

I hear you on the snowbird thing Sachita...to me that would be the best of both worlds. Maybe one day when we retire we'll be that lucky. In the meantime our "must have" list for a house includes central air and a swimming pool so we don't cook.

Hope everyone has a fun, relaxing weekend planned....

baby...hope you're still

and wishing I could snuggle in with you

good morning everyone.. well freyja I havent actually kept up on my garden.. My tomato plants need to go in the ground but its been raining for a solid week pretty much and cant get out to work with the ground...

morningstar... my family lives in Tampa Fl!! You can say hi as you drive by... enjoy your layover for a day... you know maybe there's a reason why you are there a day early!

Tommi, I was born in Maine and moved when I was 12... It is VERY beautiful but winters are harsh or atleast they were when I lived there... 3 layers of winter clothing and a snowmobile suit was too much for me... North Carolina beach would be awesome for me as a second getaway spot!! Or even a place to live... I lived in High Point and worked in Greensboro NC and miss it!! I was 3 hours from the mountains and 3 hours from the beach.. awesome!!

Ok, off to enjoy my

My bio-family lives in Tampa toooooo.. and sherrie loves Maine, so,so I am flying in to Newark, and we are driving to Acadia Nat'l Park and other places along the coast of Maine, last week of June through July 4th holiday.

I grew up playing in the Allegheny mountain snowbanks. I thawed out here while in the Air Force. Tampa is not healthy frame of mind place for me, so this is my Sunshine state of Nirvana. We did spend a week in Winter Haven Fl. with sherrie's parents and I was treated like a king..so, that was a nice FL memory.

ohhhh I got it now! duh... I thought both of you were traveling down.

well good luck. I hope this hurricane season isnt bad. I left Florida the year after we had those 3 major hurricanes in a row. I'm sure it effected you where you are.

If all hell breaks loose grab your tent and head north. I have 30 acres. Pick a spot and have at it!

and sets up coffee for the morning... wait... its already morning :duh: ..... ughh... that mid afternoon nap really messed with my night...

Hope everyone has a wonderful night...

freyja · 05-16-2010, 04:59 AM

Gooooood Morning kitchen peeps!!

What a glorious morning full of sunshine, Woo Hoo!
Thank you becca for setting up the coffee machine, you're a sweetie.

i'm missing the musicman's great spread this morning and i'm hungry.
Let me open the fridge and see what i can muster up on such short notice.
This is definitely not the spread you are all used to. My apologies.
i am sure MM will be back soon.

So.....
Here you go:
Toasted English muffins with raspberry jam, waffles with pure Canadian maple syrup and alongside that, sliced California strawberries and a dollop of whip cream. Beverages other than coffee are apple juice today, and Scoote, i almost forgot, MM always puts out Dr. Pepper for you.

And for music -
Well since the fashion has gone totally 80's style
(has anyone looked at the new footwear? omg Eighties!)

i thought i would take us back in time (just like yesterday)
Here you go.

Have a grand Sunday all!

Zimmeh · 05-16-2010, 06:17 AM

Good Morning Freyja,

I noticed that the 80's fashion is coming back in style to, woohoo. To bad I could never do the whole mall hair.

Thank you for breakfast and the coffee.

Hope you have a wonderful Sunday,

Zimmy
