Your Omaha order looks yummy! We received ours day before yesterday. John always helps me pack them into the freezer. I was going to fix those chicken in pastry ones last night but Matthew reminded me that I said I would serve corn dogs for dinner. lol Never did that for dinner before. I served them with Ramen noodles (John's favorite) so it was an easy meal. I'm all for easy!.

The bird house is adorable! How nice of him. So glad it was there when you went to get it. Surprise no one took it thinking it was a freebee.

Omaha delivers in 2 days and the items are frozen and in the ice chest they send the items in is dry ice. So all is still frozen when you get them! Yes, I was happy the birdhouse was still there! Thanks Nancy!!!! xoxoxo

Sue, I am sitting here laughing out loud. I did just what you say you do. In reading Nancy's comment I mistakenly thought she wrote "Obama" instead of Omaha! LOL I thought W H A T????? Just read the first line and see what I mean! Lordy! I will be so glad when this election season is over! OF COURSE corrupt Hil liar y HAS to be beaten!!

Funny I always thought Weiner Schnitzel involved a frankfurter, hot dog or weiner! One in the same I thought! Then we learned a "weiner" can even be a pervert as in Anthony! :(
