Thank you Lipstix!!

The chocolate cake sounds yummy~! I treated myself to Godiva chocolate that I found at the grocery store on Saturday. Did you know that Godiva is kosher?

Have fun tonight,

Good Evening lovely Kitchen patrons,

I am pleased to see everyone had a peaceful weekend.

scoote, My friend.. feeling any better? There is a nasty bug going around up here too.. knock on wood.. I have not gotten it yet. However, I spent most of today with a pounding headache.. I had to take Ibuprophen and sleep most of the day.. and it is still there.. although it is not pounding as bad. I also just tried a little dinner.. I was not able to eat all of it.. however, I got enough in Me to keep Me alive.. laughs.

Speaking of knitting.. I miss watching My late maternal Gram knit and crochet. She made some beautiful pieces of work.. or art as I like to call her creations. We still laugh to this day over these hats she crocheted for us all. They weighed a TON and were so heavy they flopped over.. laughs.. however, they kept out heads warm.. and that was the point. There was no way of getting out of wearing them either.. because every time she would see one of us kids.. she would ask where the hat was.. laughs. I miss her.

I hope everyone is having a peaceful evening.

Here is some and because it is cold out there.

Waves to Jo, scoote, Zimmy, kats, morning, lipstix

As Always,
Jake

[JustJo]

Good evening everyone,

We just all pigged out on filet mignon and baked potatoes...yummy. It was so tender that Scoote was cutting hers with the side of a fork.

Now we all have big bellies....including the kittens.

Jake, sorry to hear that you're sick too...hope you start feeling better.

Chocolate cake, mmmmmm......

You had a nice big meal more than what I get I wish I could have some of that filet mignon and baked potato maybe tomorrow night I will have steak and potatoes with a salad but the cake is for everyone so have at it...have a nice night too.

Good Morning Everyone,

Hope you all slept well and are enjoying the start of your day!

I am thinking of a delicious fruit salad with eggs, toast, juice, milk, coffee and tea for breakfast this morning. True brain food I must say.

Tomorrow is my microbiology lab final which I am kinda nervous about. I have a 97 in this class and I don't want to ruin my A. As for my micro lecture class, I gave up on the professor and I am going to be emailing her boss this afternoon and start to contest my grade. The witch gave me another F on the paper that was due yesterday. No matter how much information you put into these case studies, she just fails you. I am done with her as a professor.

Have fun today, and I have to stop by and see my niece's mother on the way home. She was standing in a tire store on Sunday, when a drunk woman lost control of her car and hit the building and knocking a tire display on top of her.

Good luck on your test!!! And I hope your neice's mother is ok. What a terrible thing to have happened to her!

Morning Star, good for you making a change like that. I know it must not have come easy at all. But you do know your own body and what it can take or not take. I wish you all the success in the world. And as I stated in my PM to you I would love to be included at some of the festivals as well in the Spring. Lots of fun and perhaps some sales too.

I love watercolor pencils too. Derwent wc and Derwent Inktense are awesome. I bought them at Hobby Lobby on line. Thanks for the link. I have heard of them but never visited their site. Going there now!!!

I hope everyone has a terrific day!!!

Good Evening Jake,

I got into doing crossowrd puzzles because of my grandmother and I enjoy it. My oldest niece got the craft gene from my mom and when her and her brother were down for the summer, she made me a butterfly and a "I love you" plaque out of crayola clay. I now have to find some good quality acrylic paint to paint them with. Try taking some Aleve and see if that helps with your headache and I am sorry that you don't feel good.

How was your weekend?

Hugs and have a good night,

Zimmy

Good Evening Zimmy,

OOOOooooOOOOh.. I love crossword puzzles. My Gram tried to pass along the knitting, crocheting, sewing thing to My sister and I. ummmmm.. let us just say .. it did not pass along well. laughs. Actually My sister can sew with a machine and by hand. I can sew by hand.. no machine for Me. My Mom can do the whole thing.. same as My gram.

I paint with acrylics and the brand I use are Windsor & Newton.. the same brand I use for watercolors as well. However, I am sure Michael's sells a good brand.. and probably not as pricey as what Mine run.

Thank you for the Aleve tip.. I have a feeling it is a hunger headache.. if I wait to long to eat I get them.. and they are the worst to get rid of.

Weekend was.. ok.. nothing phenomenal. laughs.

Hugs you back

I hope you have a peaceful evening.

Jake

Hola Jake,

When I flew to Chicago and Seattle, I would put my iPod on play and start doing crossword search and finds. Music is my life and I have to listen to it all of the time. My mom loves to cross stitch, which I can do, and she loves to crochet baby afghans for everyone. Maybe one day, I will sit down and take that up as a hobby, but for now, I have way to much energy and I love to be on the go.

I will definately check out Michaels and see what kind of paints they have and see if they have just a glaze type. In my opinion, Aleve works better than prescribed painkillers. When I had to have the needle removed from my foot, the dr gave me Darvocets, which did nothing for me, but the Aleve took the pain and swelling away.

Have a good night, I am going to watch another episode of Bones before I go to bed...I love that show...It's a mixture of science and medicine.
