Geriatric nachos!!! I'm old - but not THAT old! I think the geriatric ones have been soaked first so they're easier to chew...

Good morning! The coffee is brewing - it's French Vanilla. Cinnamon rolls are just coming out of the oven. Now I'm gonna start on those blueberry pancakes!

 

[thier1754]

Sounds great, Callie. I'm starved.

Luvs, I do remember you mentioning tubing Ensure. Actually, the ads for it are quite trendy now. It's no longer just the convalescent home cocktail. But that's how I remember it from my parents' time in the home. Still hard to talk about that one...

 

[Bangbang]

Ensure and liquified White Castles coming up.

I had a friend who cooked in a nursing home - on hot dog day those that couldn't eat hot dogs were not left out - they ground up the buns, layered ground up hot dog on top, pureed the pickle relish - then if you wanted ketchup or mustard you just added that - I thought it was pretty neat!

It is now afternoon - anyone need a little pick-me-up shot of espresso? Maybe a little savory biscotti instead of sweet - like a Parmesan/Rosemary biscotti?

 

[Maidrite]

I am game Kitchenelf for all the above!

 

[Alix]

Espresso here please. Double shot. No biscotti though, I just made some white chocolate chunk pecan cookies, anyone want one of those?

 

[Maidrite]

[Alix]

One iced tea and a couple cookies coming up! *Ping! Alix slides plate and glass down the bar to Maidrite*

just before they put my peg tube in they tried me on pureed food. all the food on my tray came up looking like little piles of baby food! i didn't mind the carrots but the roast beef was a bit much...

What a weekend, I'm exhausted!! I made blackberry freezer jam Friday night & it turned out perfect!! Saturday, I smoked 2 turkey breasts, cleaned house, & helped hubby shape up the hedges in the front yard while we were outside, we stopped to talk to one of our neighbors & Savannah stepped in a hill of fire ants & they covered her feet & legs. Luckly our neighbor had his hose pipe on & we were able to wash them off her before she got bitten more than a couple of times. Sunday we went to church then went out to eat with my parents, brother, SIL, neices & nephews. After lunch they all came to our house for a little while. When they all left, we all took a nap & then hubby & I finished up the hedges. I thought weekends were supposed to be relaxing!! That nap Sunday was the only time I slowed down & I really needed it. We stayed up late & watched National Treasure with Nicholas Cage, TC really enjoyed it.


OK, enough babbling from me! Here's some of my blackberry jam & a fresh loaf of English muffin bread. Hope y'all enjoy it!!

Hi crewsk! The jam and bread are wonderful! Thanks! We had a weekend similar to yours. We're still painting (decided to do a couple other rooms while we were doing the nursery) and each is taking at least two coats of paint. Next comes tearing up some carpet. We figured we'd be adventurous and try it on our own. Plus, since stuff is moved out of the rooms to paint already, it should be easier (famous last words!).

I'm about to make a huge fruit salad since we're going through another hot and humid week here. Anyone want some?
