So Long 2006!

Happy New Year 2007!!

Christmas Smiles

Here's wishing all had a very Merry Christmas today.  We enjoyed our day throughly!
All the wrapping paper, empty boxes and clean-up is worth it for the Christmas smiles.

Friday's Feast

This is a new feast  for me, but I'm plumb out of ideas and my brain is in a fog, so here goes:

Appetizer
What is one of your Christmas traditions?

I don't know that we have a 'tradition' other than the annual making of cookies, fudge and caramels.  Most of the other holiday we pretty much 'play it by ear'!!

Soup
Who is the easiest person on your list to buy presents for?

This one is a no-brainer!! The youngest grandchild is always the easy one; no matter what you get a child, as long as it's given with love is the 'bestest'!

Salad
What is your favorite Christmas scent?

Okay, don't laugh, but my favorite Christmas scent is salt water! It reminds me of home,,,

Main Course
If you could give a fellow blogger a Christmas gift, who would it be and what would you give them?

Another easy one!  I would give Christina my magic ability to turn the clock back to July 1, 2006!!

Dessert
What's something on your Christmas wish list this year that you need (not just want)?

For the world to stop spinning and let me off!! (or at least slow down for a while).

I know some of my answers don't make sense to a few of you, but when I get ready I'll post about some of them.

You're Gettin Nuttin for Christmas

Ha Ha, Denny got caught!! 

See what happens when you're a bad boy?

On Her Mind

Out of the blue, is someone on your mind and you just can't stop thinking about them?

If you have their number, call them!  You may not know it, but you may just make someone's day!

Yesterday was just such a day for me; I'd been dealing with paperwork all day and still recovering from my outpatient surgery. I've been in a little bit of a 'brain-fog' lately and my mind isn't functioning on all four cylinders. (Okay, I can hear the comments forming,,,)

My phone rang and someone on the other end asked if this was Michele. I said yes and this person said this is Christina. This dialogue was repeated four times before I finally came out of my funk enough to realize it was dear Christina from down Texas way!

How I needed that phone call, how I needed that chat, how I needed to hear another's voice on the phone who was/is almost as insane as I am!! 

Thank you so much, dear lady, for following your heart and giving me a call.

In Tressel We Trust

Back in the Saddle Again!

After a 'routine' out-patient surgery, I thought I would be back to my blog the next day or two.  It's now been a little over a week and I'm just beginning to feel human again! Yes, for all you nay-sayers out there, I am actually human, and not just something V-man dug up out a drug-induced coma years ago.

So, while posts may still be scarce in the next few days, I am alive and kicking and shall return!!

Things in Common

Okay, Alex, for two points:

What do the following things have in common?

And the answer is:

Just a little nerd,,,

Found this over at Lisa's and had to steal it!

Kind of sad, ain't it??

Carnival of the Recipes: The World-Famous Edition

Bill at World Famous Recipes has hosted this week's edition of the carnival.

So many great recipes to check out and try, from fudge for the soul to chocolate spoons (detect a theme here anyone?).

Check it out if you have the chance; I think the idea of chocolate spoons is great and would make delightful stocking stuffers!
