What's making you happy today? - Page 222

yea, we just wrap ours in paper towels to prevent them from making a mess in the microwave. Our prefered method, and what we did last night, is to cook them wrapped in foil in the outdoor fireplace.

See, ideally I bake mine for 1.5 HOURS!
I like to scoop all the potato out, butter it if I'm not worried about my weight, vinegar it if I am.

Then I eat the empty "shell boats" at the end with ketchup or BBQ sauce.[smackslips]

Bake, butter, shredded cheddar. So good. So bad.

I have a new profile pic. Thanks jinx for the suggestion.

skysidhe · 02-01-2009, 09:29 PM

address is approximate!

I got all excited expecting to see a cute BigV pic and all I see is an old google map thing with some guy that MIGHT be Big V...but then it could be the neighbor or the pizza delivery guy.

prolly

It's me.

I'm famous. I'm on Google Maps Street View in front of my house!

It's supposed to be close to 70° in Denver the next two days.

Sundae · 02-04-2009, 01:26 PM

Ha! Opposite for me (well, not quite)
We're due more snow tomorrow!
I'm not as excited as last time - after all they said heavy and it was barely over my boot tips. This time they haven't said heavy so it's going to be a light sprinkling, like the talcum powder I get on the bathroom mat.

Still, tomorrow I finally get some moey through.
Wooohoooo!
Wayhay!
It means if I get a call to say they have a vacancy for me for counselling I can afford to go (only £10 a session, but up until today I had £0 and 0p, which didn't help).

And I'm going to get a proper pair of scales so Mum & I can start our Weight Loss Challenge. Even if we'll have to put it back til Monday now - we have meal plans and food shop to get sorted before we actually start.

This evening is just a happy one is all!

Pie · 02-04-2009, 08:51 PM

Damn. I'm still waiting for my husband's w2! And the 1099s.

binky · 02-04-2009, 11:23 PM

Sry pie, just got the last of ours yesterday.

Sundae · 02-05-2009, 06:29 AM

Snow, snow, snow-snow-snow!
Yay!

And snow.
Will post pics in Aylesbury thread.

DanaC · 02-05-2009, 06:36 AM

Buggering snow again....sorry....there are aspects of it that are very pleasing, but I am starting to panic a little about my presentation on monday...

I'm hoping the trains are running into Leeds tomorrow.
