Hi,
I know it's close to your vacation time,but I just saw this. Have you looked at Zappos.com under the sale section? I just looked and they have some good deals. They ship right out free, with free return. Have a fun trip

Hi Scott,
Prayers coming from here for your total recovery.

In Christ,
Paula

Our daughter grew up in this woodsey area of SE Texas so she is used to animals being around at times. But 5 yrs ago her husband took a job up in the Dallas area where she's had 3 little children. They moved back 'home' over the weekend into an area that is woodsy and has a creek. Yesterday as she w...

Oh yum.... And you've photographed it so beautifully,too. My hubby would LOVE this dish. I keep this message board a secret from him-- if he saw what you guys do,he'd be wondering why I'm not?!...Although after all these years of my cooking I'm sure he already knows

Oh YUMMY!! I knew I could count on you Liamsaunt!

Ok... where IS everyone?! I can't cook worth a flip, but I love to see all the goodies you guys make and photograph so beautifully. How about it? I can't be the only one who is missing this subject...

Wonderful trip report, Margy!!! I can't believe the wallet nightmare. I know we all have that worry that something will go wrong at the last minute. Darn Jumbies! I have 5 days left before we take off!!
See you down there!

What a great trip report! Gentle Winds sounds like a great place for a family vacation. You're right about the beach directly in front of the Pelican Cove condos-- the reef starts around this area and it is unswimmable. However, if you walk up the beach (a short distance) you can enter the water in ...

Ok, what's with that smudge on the webcam?! It comes and goes and is right in the middle of MY view! Is there another webcam junkie out there who needs their daily fix who knows who to contact about this?

Oh my goodness those chicken pot pies look absolutely YUMMY. I've got to get off this laptop and learn how to cook! My grandchildren would love these!

California Girl: Those look DELICIOUS!! And those rumtops are definitely 'Calorie Worthy'

It's so nice to see a few posts on this thread! I'm a longtime lurker,too. Can't cook worth a hoot,but I LOVE recipe books and reading about others who can. Liamsaunt-- that dessert looks fabulous!(and complicated...) LauraD-- that soup sounds sooo yummy. I never thought of a French Onion with dumpl...

SO funny!!!! As an owner of a 'mentally challenged' cat, I could relate to the weirdness of the poor dogs behavior. I also read the blog on 'dog' and it was just as funny!! The drawings just put it over the top :lol: Thank you! Paula PS-- the Cake story was hilarious,too,especially with the illustra...

I found out that Brighton charms,beads,spacers,etc all fit on Pandora bracelets for a fraction of the cost--so you can mix and match. Last Christmas I bought my daughter and daughter in law 'children' themed charms with spacers,etc at a store that sold Brighton bracelets. By the time I was finished ...

Thank you Lulu! I'm sorry to sound like a real whiner on that last post. If we don't get to go, well, we'll go some other time. It's NOTHING compared to the terrible situations people have gone through with Katrina, Rita, Ike,etc. I guess I've been counting down the days and BAM! vacations gone. Or ...
