Good to know the fries dish and salad are being well-received.

*Is buried with delight from one of those stories borrowed from the fic library.

Glad I changed my mind about making the deviled eggs. The banana bread turned out much better!

Hey Kathy, you want something to drink?
*Fills plastic cup with some more black cherry soda.

*OOC: What's serenata,Ed? I myself had shepherd's pie for dinner. Relax everyone..no sheep were used. Just regular ground beef.

 

[The Count]

*OOC: Kathy, serenata is boiled salt cod—though you gotta try to buy it with most of the salt off and without the needle-thin fish bones—with sliced cold/raw tomatoes and onions, hardboiled eggs, and whatever other tubers you have on hand, i.e.: pumpkins, yucca, yautia, sweet potatoes, celeriak, etc. The tubers can be served cold or cooked hot with a bit of olive oil.

Late at night...
* strokes Fatatita's fur, as she's curled in his lap, Uncle D playing a round of solitaire with the deck of batty cards.
Me: Night everybody. *Listens to the falling rain outside for a while.

Robin comes in Hi everyone sneezes then coughs and sniffles
Hi yourself.Bless you. Come here...let me feel your forehead.Are you coming down with something?feeling Robin's forehead
Robin: Half my class has colds.
Well congratulations kiddo. So do you. As well as a fever. Don't your classmates' parents know enough to keep their sick kids home?
Robin:Nancy has a cold and her mom kept her home.
Now she's a smart mother. Do you have any tests tomorrow or the next couple of days?
Robin quickly grabs a tissue and sneezes into it: No. Had a history test and got an 80 on it.
All right.Go wash your hands and get me the thermometer and your cold medicine.
Robin: Blecchh...gotta start taking the yukky tasting stuff now.
Welcome to the world of no more fruit flavored medicine my dear froggie son.

Ellie: I call the play now, do you see why? *reciting part of this phrase for the millionth time*

Bert: Something, something they call you Manning Eli -_- *is annoyed at this*

Ellie: Yes, they be calling me Manning Eli! *does another victory dance*

Bert: Are you losing your voice?

Ellie: Yep! And all my cheering from last night didn't do me any good either! *smiling*

Bert: And shouldn't it be: they call me or are calling me?

Ellie: Oh Bert, you just don't understand rap. *sighs* And probably never will.

Ernie: *laughs* She's right Bert, you don't know hip from hop!

Bert: -_-

*would not be surprised to see Ernie in shades, bling, and a Bentley*
Long weekend, though not the lost kind, unfortunately. Work work work. At least it's hours, which means pay.

Rhonda: Good. Does this mean you're buying the cheese tonight?

Since when are we having cheese tonight?

Rhonda: Did I say 'we'? Did you hear the word 'we' come outta this mouth?

Ahem...I thought we were having veggieburgers and other healthy things.

Rhonda: Cheese IS healthy! Calcium! Protein! *pokes Newsie's leg* Stuff ta build actual muscle, like you'd have a clue about those!

Er...uh...I work out! I run every evening!

Rhonda: Running from falling cows or rampaging monsters doesn't count.

It does too! Especially when the monster is faster...ulp.

Hey you guys, both of you eat one of these clementines. I hear Robin is ill, and we don't want to catch anything. In fact, I'm gonna take a bag of 'em over to Kathy's.

Okayyy...um...I wasn't aware that an old western folk tune had preventative properties...

Rhonda *facepaw*

[The Count]

*Wonders if clementines are anything like those honey bells I heard about the other day.

On the bright side, I've decided what song to go with for my February ficlet.
Oh?
Yeah, I've got the version sung by Beth Orton, though I much more love the one sung by the Paris Sisters.
So vhen are you working on it?
Probably later this week, tomorrow's already booked though.

Ed, clementines are like Mandarin oranges. Very small, very sweet, peel easily and the bitters aren't as hard to get off. Great for snacking.

Here is a Muppet News Flash! Tricky Dick Nixon has been sighted within the building!

Rhonda: Genius, it's only a mask.

Only a...aha. That explains it! I KNEW Nixon was off with Elvis somewhere, really!

*sigh* I'm going downstairs. You two play nice. *hops elevator down to Kathy's to drop off some clementines for the roomies there*
