When my hubby and I were in Antigua we got a bottle of Antigua Rum. It was soooo good! we went like 3 years ago and we used it sparingly. We have like this much () left. (Hardly any) but I we just can't bring ourselves to finish it off, lol.

Speaking of dubloons...you could do a Goonies version for kids! And in the process make lots of fifty dollar bills, fifty dollar bills, for yourself! You could do the cold stone creamery thing ala the ice cream in the basement scene.

Yes. I watch way too much tv. lol:D
 
Rocky.... road? :)

I sooooo love the goonies. wonder if my daughter would be into that movie yet... we have it but me and hubby watch it haha!!

Now that Cyndi Lauper song will be in my head all day... Good enough.... for you... it's good enouuuuuuuuuugh... good enough for meeee a yiyiyiyiyiyiyiyiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Okay, now a challenge for you. There's gotta be someway you can work pc into the song! PC is Good enough for you it's good enouuuuuuuuuuuugh for me it's good enough yiyiyiyiyiyiyiyiy!!! lol

My kids love the Goonies! Whoda thunk it that Mikey grows up to be Rudy, samwise on Lord of the Rings and then helping the country on 24?

I'm also a Martha Plimpton fan. I think she is so under rated. She was great in Parenthood with all those great actors!
 
Yes, what is a "Garishing" show?? Inquiring minds want to know! :D

Kelly V.
 
I loooove Sean Austin... I had a huge crush on him when I was a kid and Samwise is like totally my hero. We almost named our son Sam... but it didn't roll off the tongue right...

Hmm.. wow.. just remember having TEEN BEAT posters of him next to 21 Jump Street Johnny Depp and Eric Stoltz.... And I still love all three of them :P

Yahoo BCCOn the question about BCC - you can see them (I am using the beta version but I believe I have seen them in the past too)

I always put myself in the TO but I don't think this is a key to seeing it

Here's how:
Go to your Sent folder and get the full view of the message.
On the right side, it says Standard Header if you click on the drop down you will see Full Header. Click there and you will see a full list of who you sent to in the BCC

Let me know if you don't see it.

Hi Kelly --
Basically -- it's a show all about neat garnishes you can do with foods.

For the food portion of it, have a pretty veggie tray and demo a couple of easy dips for it. You can also make something ahead of time and take it. I have also made "Spa Water" with pretty sliced lemons and springs of mint or cantelope balls and slices of fresh cuke and parsley (sounds weird until you try it -- wow it's sooooo refreshing) in the quick stir as well.

The main focus is different ways to dress up a dish and add a little pizazz to your presentation. There was a great book out a couple years ago from Pampered Chef that I was overjoyed to get in my surprise pack this year. It's totally garnishes. Shows off a ton of gadgets.

Before I got that book I got a lot off the internet as well. Just google food garnish and you will get some great results.

Good luck -- hope this helps.

lol...I had a poster of George Michael! Don't judge me! lol:D
 
Big poster of Rob Lowe for me - loved him as a teenager! Also Tom Cruise (in the 80's) back when he was not a nut!
 
so I thought I should post 3 things that went well today before I go to bed:

1) I had a great conversation with my mom this evening
2) I found out my boss won't be at work from tomorrow-Tuesday
3) My new coworker said she is for sure booking a show as the party room at her new apartment would be perfect for it!

and 3 things I am grateful for:

1) Having a mom who I can talk to about anything and knows when things aren't right
2) Having wonderful friends who can always make me smile
3) While I may hate my day job, at least I can say I have a job that affords me my own place and I don't go wanting for too much (except health insurance and pto...) plus I always have PC as my job that takes me away from the harsh realities of life into a fun place where I get to meet great people!

p.s. I totally used to be in love with Michael Jackson!

Loved them too, but I must admit that I was TOTALLY in love with John Taylor from Duran Duran:o
 
I still love Duran Duran - I enjoyed their videos a ton when they were first on MTV - back in my Jr. High days! I remember watching videos like crazy on MTV!
 
John Taylor was always the hottest Duran Duran Man!But we digress...
