Just Another MeMe Monday

Geggie posted this today, and I figured "Why Not?"


I was tagged!

1. Clothes Shop
NY&Co, but I really like the classic styles at much pricier stores. Oh well.

2. Furniture Shop
I liked the stuff at Haverty's, but I can't add to the furniture nowadays. Haven't been in one for about three years. (though if someone wants to give me a complete Arts and Crafts/Craftsman furniture makeover gratis, thankyouveryplease!)

3. Sweet
Snickers bars, Take 5 bars, Mochas (with whipped cream), Black Forest Cherry Cake (only way I like cherries), Pecan Pie (again, with whipped cream), Carvel Ice Cream and Rita's Italian Ices

4. City
New York. Love it, but wouldn't live there

5. Drink
Lots of water nowadays. Alcoholic, Comfort and Ginger Ale or a nice semi dry red wine or a glass of Laura's Killer Sangria (served over rice, lol)

6. Music
Anything except Rap, Wagnerian Opera and music featuring whiny singers

7. TV Series
Good Eats, Iron Chef America, Little People, Big World

8. Film
Comedies and Disney Cartoons

9. Workout
I've got a Wii Fit, but it'll tell me it's been 125 days since my last confession workout. Doctor says 1.walking, 2.swimming and 3.bike riding-no impact exercises whatsoever. 1 is Boring, 2 I have no pool and 3 dude, my wrists can't handle my bike that doesn't have lazy brakes.

10. Pastries
Yes, please. All of it.

11. Coffee
Indigo Indulgence with a squirt of caramel or almond and half and half. Splurge on their mocha with whipped. If I get near a Barnies, hopefully the flavor of the day is Santa's White Christmas or Chocolate Cherries Cordial. Half and half and copious amounts of sugar. In a pinch, Dunkin Donuts Iced French Vanilla with milk and sugar. I'll only do $tarbuck$ only if someone gave me a gift card-it all tastes burnt to me.

And to think that five years ago, I wouldn't touch the stuff, now I can give you a discourse on the house blends at the local convenience stores and donut chains.

Feel free to join in the fun...

Thanks for playing.

Now...the Wii Fit? Do you actually get a work out with it?

If you actually USE the darn thing, you get a workout. I suppose I should start, eh?

And you won't until after the new year, Mandy. Otherwise, I'm coming up there and stomping on the other foot! :) Trust me, you don't want to mess with exercise until you get the all clear.

You didn't really mean "Sangria over rice" did you? "ice" maybe? mmmm I made Sangria for the first time in years recently and Milord was hooked!

Saffa, a client of mine gave me her recipe, and her coworkers were chiding her "Don't forget to tell her that it's served over rice!". I asked and she explained that she submitted the recipe to the company cookbook, and instead of putting "Serve over ICE", it got changed to over rice.

It's a mighty potent sangria recipe-and it makes a gallon. We're pretty happy here when I make a batch!

Wal Mart Your Zone $500.00 Gift Card Contest!

Image
Note to new visitors-this contest has ended. Thank you. For several months now, I have participated in WalMart 's Beyond Eleven Moms, a collective of bloggers who partner with WalMart to give feedback on products already in stores and ideas about products that the company can offer in their stores. Last month, I was approached to help test out a new product line in the stores. Many retailers offer room decor for youngsters and college students, but affordable furniture, bedding and decor for teens was hard to find. Enter Your Zone ! We were sent a $500.00 WalMart gift card and given a mission: redo a bedroom whatever way you like within that amount for your teen. If you asked me to do it anywhere else, I think I could buy a bed and a dresser and be done. The whole point of Your Zone is that your teen can change things without breaking the bank. First up, let's find a bed! The beds the boys have are the bunk beds we bought at Ikea back when Chef graduated out of a crib.

Webmaster Alex speaks Anonymously

**Please note, this post was written in 2008, over 7 years ago.  This is not current, but remains to detail the DISboards bannings.** The other day, I wrote of my banning from the Disboards, a site I belonged to for six years. I was banned for participating in another site, as were approximately 35 others. The list will be posted further in this entry. If you skip this post because it doesn't mean anything except to the participants, I don't mind. This is mainly out there for the hundreds (over 7,500 now!**) of Google searches that have been directed to my blog since the bannings. Lord knows, anytime anyone asks a question on the Disboards, it'll be poofed faster than you can say "delete." Curiously, I received an anonymous comment that rambled on and on. It rather reminded me of Socrates, my older brother who has delusions of grandeur. When I first read the comment, I thought, "Oh goody, a moderator has come to call me a bully." Wanna re

Glad that I'm not "Guilty By Association" on this one

I thought I was done with the DISboards stuff, really I did. However, the hypocricy and racism displayed by Webmaster Pete and others on a memorial show is deplorable. Sadly, all it does is show that the man who died is the only one who has some scruples among the staff. I'm awaiting some You Tube links to the entire unedited podcast and then an edited link to just the racism portion. In the meantime, I'm posting the transcript of the 'tribute' to Bob. These were transcribed by a former DISer for me. Thanks. ************************************************************************************* Here is a link to the DIS' podcast page : http://www.wdwinfo.com/disney-podcast/ (note, the podcast in question has been removed from the web. It was on YouTube for a couple of days and viewed about 1000 times before being shut down) The following is a transcribed portion of the show that was especially upsetting to many. It began around the 1 hour & 3
