Spirit of this swap:
This is actually an easy swap for ALL of us here. We know each other prettttttyyyy goood (a la Larry David) .. so there should be no problems at all in coming up with that 'special' ringing in 2009 gift for any of us. And if we don't, there's plenty of time to do so
It doesn't have to be restricted to crafts, can be anything .. that plant you know will grace your buddy's garden and bring a smile when it starts blooming .. or even a jar of very much sought after preserves that will delight your sistah in the mornings or tea time.
Not seeking commercial nor monetary value on the gift.
Just a gift that says: "I am glad you are my Sistah and with this, I wish you the best for 2009".
NOTE: You don't have to join the swap to enjoy this thread.
♥Sweet Interruption♥ 19
Oh goody, I am first!! I get to chose the bestest chair here!! I bet Tink and BJ.
I'd still would highly recommend for those that have been missing these days, to please take a look at the pictures of our Sistahs 1st. Gathering http://davesgarden.com/community/forums/t/897517/
Lololol!!! Yes Marion dear, you are first! No more hammock for you!!
It is just about time. thank you!!
What did you do today? Clearing up the grounds or talking to your sewing machine?
Gathered up garbage in the house, did laundry and cleaned off debris on the upper deck. Still damp so it wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. The gingers are really looking great with this weather.
I think I am going to hire someone to come do most of the cleanup--just to overwhelming right now.
I'll take the hammock... thanks...
Oops... just plopped out of it..
BRB ... gonna bring my own chair in here... guess I'm not built right for the hammock.
We will wait. Want a glass of mint tea?
Gingers love to be flooded once in a while. All my peach, white and orange are blooming now.
Of course Marion. Don't do anything when you can get someone else to do it for you, especially laboring work.
Think we'll leave the hammock to the 'kiddies'...Laura et Stacey!
We're not too agile anymore!!
Thanks Marion, would you believe I'm having a cup of coffee?
Hey Jaye, I can drink coffee all day. Maybe that's why I stay wired some days but for the most part, coffee is calming to me.
I love you sweet Sistah!!
Got to tell Kel I'm not crazy!! Yep, coffee wakes me up in the mornings and in the evenings, it's like smoking a cigarette after a meal....
(Used to smoke)
Ok, back with my comfy chair... hmmmm.... now where do I put it?
Yep, Deb made me drink coffee with her last Sun Night... she twisted my arm till it hurt... kept me up till all hours of the night.
Jaye, I really enjoy getting out and working but this time it is just to depressing. I am not able to concentrate on a section at a time so I will have some one come take care of the mess. Just gonna be lazy this time. When my son gets the time he plans to rebuild the roof over my swing set. Thank goodness it can be salvaged!!!
Oh my, is ther enough to share? I love coffee--decaf this late. I love my sleep.
(((((((((((((((((((((((((Marion))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
my goodness y'all moved fast this afternoon....LOL
BJ I guess I missed the post about us being near each other but I go tit now LOL
I was talkin to Ms V on the bus tonight and we were talkin NO and places there as my oldest was just there the first part of the month with a bachelorette party telling her about a cafe they had gone to and she knew the name then I mentioned I would need a few more Cajun recipes from her DH and told her about the seasoning Jaye wants and she knew right away what it was Tony something LOL
Crawfish etouffe'..... I'm in !! gumbo and jambalaya yum yum
I don't make mine real spicy as DH won't eat it too spicy and it talks back to me too but I do like it.
someone mentioned chocolate as a favorite thing too right?
maybe I'll have to bring stuff to make PMS pie for y'all to try...I've had to make it for every get together I've been to since last October except for the one in buffalo.
is a grand mixture of a pecan pie filling in the bottom with a cream cheese, powdered sugar marshmallow fluff middle with home made chocolate mousse on top of that and topped off with cool whip with chocolate and carmel drizzled on top and pecan pieces sprinkled on top. ..and of course I take all the calories out ...hahahaha
Cafe Francis, Marion. It's one the International Brands in the small tins. It's good! Those tins could be used for "something" I just dont know what. Used them years ago in VBS but I'm not involved anymore since my boys are now men.
Marion! I love your place! I'd give my front teeth for a shady area like that! Looks like a park!
WHAT? JAYE! Did I do something wrong? When, me? where?
Phyllis I am one of those who like the chocolate. I think I posted it #1 in the food pyramid. Oh my does that sound yummy!! To bad I am stuffed from dinner.
Oh not anymore Deborah!!!!! Yeap, I drink Cafe Francis also. Yummy!!
LOLOL!! Phyllis.. you are just too too much!! Not fair, now you have to give us the recipe to PMS pie, since it's zero calories. Well I'll take extra insulin for a piece of anything with cream cheese and chocolate!
Thanks Marion and Phyllis, I always carry a can of Tony's in my purse. Food around here is too bland! Fortunately, they sell Tony's at the grocery stores here... if only folks know how to use it!
I miss my buddy Joey!! Waaaaaaaaaaaahhhh...
This will be the second Project Runway without her input!! Waaaaaaaaahhh!!
I miss Jojo also!!
Let's raise a cup of Cafe' Francaise to us!!!!!!
I'm slurping on mine right now. Toast!!!!
To us!!!
Jaye, what did I do to get the above: Marion
Can I toast with my glass of milk?
Just hugs send across the screen to you Marion...nothing special. Just wanna hug you!! I wuv ya!!
y'all sip your coffee and I'll sip my pepsi LOl coffee smells great but I have never gotten the hang of the taste no matter what is put in it LOL
Now Jaye IF I give out this recipe all y'all have to promise that when you go to eat it you do so in great moderation it is very rich and addicting...hehehe

Yukky milk here!
Ok..show's on..oh where are you BJ??

Oh Jaye, I got the hug and boy did it feel good!! I really needed that as I have to keep telling myself this too will pass.
Rich addicting? Hummm, tall dark and handsome too?
I'm here sitting at my computer in my craft room, at my house, in Texas... in the USA...
Now that was pretty concise!!
LOL... Jaye, you had me confused there.
She has a way of doing that then just disappearing.
Yes, she does... I went into detail because I wasn't sure what she was wanting to know.
ROFLOL I think she if off to watch her televsion program. I am thinking I will go to beddy bye a little earlier tonight. Couldn't sleep last night and was up til the wee hours--thinking about this mess to much and wondering what Hanna, Ike and Josephine were plotting against us.
wait... sending you a dmail.
LOL well umm I suppose depending on what you use for a pie tin it could be ...hahahahaha
