35559 Our drive ended up 10 hours due to heavy traffic in Los Angeles and beyond, but it's so beautiful here in Oceanside. I got to see my granddaughter Madilyn (6 months pregnant) last night and she and her boyfriend Jason surprised us and told us they just got married on Sept 1, so we have a new grandson-in-law.

I obviously didn't see all these messages yesterday so I finished posting one meal for a sandwich so others can see it. I can change anything but I wanted to show a completed meal. I'm going to see if I have an invite for a SECRET group...my favorite! lol

I'd love a plan to have a goal over what me..."


LOL You could never be the weakest link! ;)

35559 Thank you, Angie for your SS fixes and well-wishes! :)

35559 Because they sent me a template, I think maybe I should be able to give access but I really don’t know.

Tammie, we just got back from Canmore. Banff National Park is breathtaking and Jasper too! We loved it there!

35559 I'm sorry, Tammie. I only know that because I signed us up as a group that the MOD sent me the template. But if there's something I need to do for you all to access it I hope to find out soon because I will be on a mini-vacay tomorrow through Monday. We're going to Oceanside with my daughter and her two daughters. We're trying to beat the heat wave here. It was 102 today and this week it's predicted to be up to 111 but thankfully it's a dry heat and not humid in CA.

35559 BTW I am trying to add a meal etc. but I'm not sure about some things so if I mess up someone please let me know. I figured I would add what I think I know how so that those who've not played it before can see how it works but I obviously don't want to confuse anyone!

35559 Tammie, I am definitely not part of a captains' group. I'm probably the most inept person with SS in this group! I did what you said, so can you access it now?

35559 I signed us up as a team and I was sent the template but I don't know if I am the one to grant access or how I would do that.

35559 I don’t think we need to do anything that will create extra work for anybody, especially for one person in particular. And I am going with the flow because even though we are competitive we also want to have fun and not make it a lot of work for anybody. I think, if I remember correctly, we can put all of our books on the spreadsheet but if we want to remove any at the end of the month or whenever that particular round is ending we can; however, sometimes we need those shorter books to complete something like fish and chips. But I’m good with whatever everyone else wants. We could just started off as is and see if we feel the need to create anything different.

35559 Personally, I think that would be very helpful. :)

35559 Angie has good ideas! She’s definitely a fantastic organizer. It’ll take me just a little bit to remember how to do everything but I think it’ll come quickly. I played the first time but I forget so easily. Trisha, it will only take you a minute to get it. I’m ready to start!

35559 Oh no! Hmm…maybe we can make something positive out of it. We’re all smart!

35559 Hello Team What the Fork! Dropping by from Team Wok on the Wilde Side to say good luck with the opening of your new restaurant! Hope you all love the challenge. :)

35559 Kindle saves us! Lol I keep finding food in books and think I shouldn’t read them now but need the ones I am reading for other challenges.

We have our official name now! Woo hoo! I am watching my grandchildren so I cannot see the image that was posted but I can’t wait to get home and look at it on my computer!

35559 Thank you, Angie.

35559 Thanks, Anna.

35559 Thanks, Trisha.

35559 Looks like it’s either Tequila Mockingbird or Wok on the Wilde Side.

Please, everyone pick ONE of those 2 as your favorite and we will have our restaurant name!

35559 Amanda might also have some names suggestions.
