Cucumber Relish ~ Nosey Bee ~ Cheeseburger or Wife?



 
 
 
 
Good 43º morning. Burrrrrr.... cold in here. Only 54º.
Turned on heater!


Yesterday afternoon the clouds came and went and then the sunset was pretty... (the first two at 5:45, second two at 7:30)




 


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
So.... Jon Voit speaks out against Obama.
Will this ruin his Hollywood career? Maybe.


And on a lighter note....

 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
I was looking for a video with Annette singing Tall Paul
for Paul at Ace. I found this, and thought all you guys
my age would get a kick out of it...



Yesterday I made cucumber relish. Chopped cukes, onion, red and green bell peppers, mustard and celery seed.....



 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
Very tasty!


While in the kitchen this bee kept trying to get into the window. Or else he was just flirting...

 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
He tried and tried to get through that glass. Funny.

Great job!

Perfect!, Cheeseburgers this afternoon, and I'll get Dawn some Roses! We started dating this week 30 years ago!

Also, I often use 9/18 as a ficticious d.o.b.

Good Morning Sisterfriend!!!
Meant to email you yesterday and got sidetracked. I loved reading your post on the making of your fabulous Marinera Sauce :-) I remember getting some of that good stuff from you many years ago when you came for a visit and it was truly fabulous. I also remember the day I used it because it was on a day that I had nothing in the kitchen to make for dinner and I remembered the sauce. I whipped it out made some pasta and salad, french bread and it saved the day. Anyway, seeing all the hard work you put into making it, made me want to write you and just give you a high five on your continued hard work in getting this made. You are amazing with all that you do especially in the kitchen. Wish I lived closer to have some of that gooooood food!!! Your friends are pretty lucky to have you close by. I am jealous! ;-)
Love you Sisterfriend!!!

That In N Out burger looks great - Yummmm - so does your relish. Love the Ketel One bottle in the back behind the spices, did it go into the mixture??? Have a nice day!!

Oregon Sue said...

@ Gail.... the Ketel One bottle is filled with vinegar. I just thought it interesting to keep on the counter! Got you wondering..... LOL

So glad you sent that video of MM Club.....last year I went to Grandparents day for one of the kids and there was a lady there that was Snow White, years ago, still very attractive. Somehow, all the grandparents started to sing the MM Alma Mater song. She sang it "come along and sing our song and join or jamboree" I sang "Family". You could tell the generation difference....but I think she thought I had it wrong, the video shows I had it right, but that Disney changed the word. It was fun watching.....brought back good times.

Good for you, remembering the words!!!

Sue,

Since I was away for the weekend I am catching up. I saw the Huck show when John Voight read his letter. It was a year or two ago. It hasn't ruined his career. Of course he is a big star in the "R" circles. I saw him at the Sarah rally and it was the night after I had seen him in the American Carol movie in which he played G. Washington. I told him what I had seen the night before and he said good, thank you! When these libs who are already stars and become conservative or were already conservatives, Hollyweird leaves them alone. They mean $$$$ at the box office! Even Heather Locklear is a "R" and a FB friend and she still gets good roles.

Oh man!! Everytime I see an In n Out burger I start craving one! Oh dear!!

Hugs, Trisha

Interesting birthdays. Your're right Robert Blake is a piece of work. He's right up there with OJ. I guess Casey Anthony will fit right in. Frankie and others will appear November 5 at Aqua Caliente in nearby Rancho Mirage. Might be fun to see. I'll have to see what the tickets are. Fabian was my favorite back then. Sarah continuing on ...
