3990. judithathome - 4/4/2007 9:07:58 PM I just made something that I hope works the way I want it to...making my son's birthday pot roast tomorrow and I got everything today at the store. Forgot to get anything to make the salad "special" and refuse to return to that madhouse.
I have butter lettuce and what I decided to do was take a can of sliced carrots and boil them with a bit of vinegar and dill weed. Then drain and chill over night...or should I leave the juice and chill? Anyhow, I'll lay out the butter lettuce on a salad plate and and plop the dilled carrots in the middle and dress with some olive oil and vinegar.
What think y'all? I thought it would be very colorful and tasty...maybe halve a few grape tomatoes, too, and lay them out artfully with the carrots. 3991. thoughtful - 4/5/2007 2:49:57 PM sounds good.
My inlaws used to pickle carrots and they were delish! 3992. arkymalarky - 4/5/2007 4:24:35 PM Sounds good to me too, especially with the grape tomatoes. 3993. arkymalarky - 4/6/2007 9:23:02 PM How'd it go, Judith? We want a full report on your salad! 3994. judithathome - 4/6/2007 11:35:12 PM It was cleaned out! Leslie and his date and Keoni all had huge seconds and she even asked me how I'd made the carrots! 3995. wonkers2 - 4/7/2007 1:06:58 AM The Polish Yacht Club [The Cap'n's Detroit favorite] 3996. arkymalarky - 4/7/2007 1:57:14 AM That's fantastic! 3997. arkymalarky - 4/7/2007 1:58:53 AM My, look here. 3998. arkymalarky - 4/7/2007 1:59:14 AM Any spring cleaning tips? 3999. arkymalarky - 4/7/2007 1:59:31 AM My house is probably in the worst shape it's been in 4000. arkymalarky - 4/7/2007 1:59:44 AM Since we built it. 4001.

The human spirit is a remarkable thing . . .
4002. wabbit - 4/23/2007 5:32:12 PM Wow. That made my day. 4003. wonkers2 - 4/24/2007 11:57:21 PM Amazing! Darn clever, those Colombianos! 4004. wabbit - 5/8/2007 6:06:19 PM 
I didn't expect to see a Baltimore Oriole for another couple weeks, but here he is!
4005. wonkers2 - 5/8/2007 6:50:56 PM Nice shot! I've never seen one in Michigan. 4006. wabbit - 5/8/2007 7:00:50 PM Thanks, w2, I thought it wasn't a half bad shot for a point-and-shoot camera through glass.
This may be our usual male, we have a pair who nest somewhere behind the house every year. We don't generally see them before late May, though, so this is early. In fact, it's early enough that the Mass Audubon Society doesn't have their 2007 Oriole Project survey available yet. Meanwhile, I've filled out the data card. 4007. judithathome - 5/8/2007 7:21:00 PM Wiz, could you send me a link to that piece so I can copy it over to my forum? That was flippin' amazing!! 4008. judithathome - 5/8/2007 7:24:27 PM Never mind...I figured it out! Duh. 4009. Ulgine Barrows - 7/13/2007 10:02:22 AM Such a perfect day, today. Looked like rain earlier, but no.
It all blew off. I played hooky with a gal I know.
We ended up in a cool library that is the closest thing to the NYC this western side of the Mississippi.
Saw an exhibit of photos. Some kids in Africa were taking pictures of things they loved.
