Kandice, I think you're the first person I've heard that likes Peeps.

It sounds likethe Cadbury eggs!
If we hit 7000 tonight that means we each need to do about 200 plus posts unless more people log on!
yeah...I'm not a fan of peeps so much.I watched a thing on Food Network that showed how they made them. If I had liked them before, I wouldn't like them now.
But I mean...that goes for anything you watch being made. Its all a nasty process involving lard and preservatives. lol.
Peeps are marshmellows in the shape of either little chicks, bunnies & some other Easter animal they are coated with colored sugar. Extremely sweet! Total Junk food!
Marshmellows actually contain fat from cow hoofs. I still like them. Protein!
uggggh. Gross!Oh well, as long as they scrape off all the crud from them before they stir them in, I guess.
I got a new quilt catalog in teh mail and so want to order this pattern & fabric to make a quilt. Dang it. They also have Beatles fabric and I owe my brother a quilt so I really need to get the Beatles fabric and make him a quilt.
Yes :) I really am! I pick it up, stroke the cover, flip through it...then I have to quickly shut my drawer before I see The Stand in there and give in to the urge to lock myself into the bathroom and read it.
I guess I get all the peeps?
I think I mentioned before I can't make a quilt to save my life, but I so, so wish I could. I can sew clothing, but quilts are just so precise!!! I envy you Emilee...
It could be. They taste good sound gross but what isn't gross these days?
Get a blanket, roll it up like a log and heat it up in the microwave and wrap it around your neck. My dad does it all the time.
Fiona: you should go to the doctor because it's been bothering you for so long. Worst case you could have a buldging disc or herniation. Go get it checked out.
Aren't you applying for jobs in the medical field? Now what kind of example will you be. Sufferring from that blasted neck for weeks on end and NOT seeing a Dr.?
Just want to be careful. Are backs are very fragile.
Don't forget to call the doctor tomorrow!

This is truely the longest thread in this group!
I am going to log off. My kids are home sick and waking up.
When I got the chicken pox, my first pox was on my face. I thought I was getting a pimple in the 3rd grade, so I made the mistake of popping it. I still have the indentation on my cheek.
You're luck that you haven't gotten them Allison. However, I have heard that if you get them as an adult the symptoms are worse. The scar almost looks like a dimple...almost.
Yeah, you can get vaccinated. It's like a right of passage when you're little and you get them. You missed out. :)
I am so often dispaointed in movie adaptations of books, but I never tire of seeing someone else's mental picture of something I have read. Sometimes, when my mom and I are together, we'll see people and say, "She looks like (insert character name) in (insert name of novel).". It's amazing that her idea of a character and mine can be SO different. Or movies. Some people are thrilled with the cast actor, while for others, it just ruins the character.
Oh, I don't know. It was soooo long. I like it, I don't mean to imply I didn't. The violence wasn't too hard to take either, but I want to get some more books on my already read list first. It seems unfair, when you have so many lined up, to let a series "take cuts". How silly does that sound? Haha!
I used to re-read all the time, until GR.Rachel-It's way, way romantic. That's not my usual style book, but it was really interesting. Since I'm not a huge romance fan, it was exciting to develop this UNHOLY crush on the main male character. He alone is worth all those pages!
As in the movie Seven Samurai? If so, I never knew there was a book. I have seen that movie countless times!!!
Fiona...it cracks me up that you're still awake.Not that its even late for you yet...what time is it there?
That means Allison is 2 hours ahead of me, because Fi is 8 ahead for me. I've noticed Fiona logs off about the time I am either getting dinner on the table or clearing up.
Is your husband home Allison?My daughter and I are giving up fast food for Lent and it made me think of what you said yesterday.
Do you think Subway is fast food?
humm...I guess it would be classified as fast food...but I always think of it differently since its healthy.Since the point of giving up fast food would be not to eat crap...I'd say you can still go to Subway.
My hubby is gone until tomorrow. I'm probably going to make myself pasta for dinner tonight though, as I'm craving some alfredo sauce! yummm.
My husband thinks he's such a crackup. Last night he was making fun of us for trying so hard to think of something hard but not too hard to give up. He said "I'm giving up sweeping, kissing men, lettuce, romance movies and reading for Lent.". He doesn't eat or do any of those things now!!!!
MWAH!!!! I didn't want Subway to be fast food! It's not fried and the vegetables are fresh. (well, kind of)
So a real deli would be okay in Fiona's description, just not a chain like Subway or Submarina? I can do that!We have lots of coffee shops, very few tea shops. They aren't all sweet, homemade and personable like they seem in English books, though. They are like Starbuck's, if you know what that is.
The last time I saw a tea shop...I was watching BBC.And all the coffee shops around here are chains, like Starbucks. Locally owned ones have long since gone out of business.
I've never heard of Costa's, but this is a big country, so maybe someone else has. I have always read that "clotted cream" thing, and always thought I would like it. What is it?I like some of the things they have at Starbuck's, but am by no means in love with it.
