- Crisping up my Wednesday night hand cut fries in the new toaster oven and having them with a little ketchup, while making a salad to take to my single friends' dinner Saturday night. We sure can cook - it was awesome - and my throat is still scratchy from laughing so much.
Thank you to Scarlet for awarding me The Liebster Blog Award - I'll have to think about that one and do an appropriate post soon. Thanks Chica!

Sounds like a nice gathering and glad you had friends to talk to at Trader Joe's so you could avoid your downsiders.
Sounds like a wonderful day! :)
Scratchy voices from too much laughing are always a good thing!
Laughter, friendship, and good food. Is there anything better?
Hand cut fries---mmmm.
Would that work with sweet potato fries?
Running into people is a tricky business. I do my part to avoid some as you did. (I wonder if people try to avoid me!)
I love #3. Laughter is GOOD for the soul!
You are a gal with many friends - and I am glad for you. Don't like those lawyers too much though. lol sandie
You totally could have flipped them off :)
Such pretty flowers!
French fries are good too.
I'm glad to hear that you didn't let bad memories get you down. :-)
So glad that you didn't allow the downsizers to dampen your day. And a scratchy throat from excess laughter (and sore cheeks from smiling too widely) are always good.
I think those are Lillies like my Mom used to have. Sounds like you had an "old home" day when the past came back up in droves- Maybe you just know alot of folks! Good to see the old friends, n hope the Lawyers regretted letting you go- I can't imagine how anyone could be so unkind to someone as sweet as you.
I live to use my little "convection" oven. My elec stove needs an overhaul, n is too expensive to run anyway. Homemade fries are the best. Don't have a fryer here to do those plus been too hot until past few days finally in 70's.
Sage -
Yeah - he called me into her office (she had left for the day) on the Friday afternoon before Labor Day and did that. And then wanted to hug me! And I only got two weeks severance after working there three years. I'm not bitter though! :)
Dana -
It was a good day. I love busy Saturdays like that.
Joanne -
Absolutely.
FB -
Nothing better, my friend!
Susan -
I think so - they weren't as crisp as the first time around, but still tasty.
Leonora -
I can't imagine anyone wanting to avoid you.
Sandie -
I do have lots of friends and acquaintances. Thank you - you are a loyal friend for not liking those lawyers. Me either. :)
Riot Kitty -
Yeah - but you know that's not me.
I had to really do some parking lot avoidance, too. And the funny thing is - I know where they live - they don't live near that Trader Joe's either.
Sparkling Red -
I loved those lilies.
The Elephant's Child -
We are all so busy that we had to do a lot of catching up. It was a delightful evening.
Snaggle -
You are sweet to say that about me. I really liked that job, but it probably wasn't the best fit for me. At any rate - they said it wasn't performance - they just needed to let one head count go and I was the least in seniority.
Glad you got those fries!! Never thought of the toaster over for crisping-up, good idea. My poor toaster oven hasn't been used in a long time.
Good vibes you give out, Lynn. Proud of you!
xooxo
Sounds like your friend's gathering was a blast!
Jannie -
You give out plenty to good vibes yourself, my friend. :)
xo
Mama Zen -
Truly fun.
I hate running into villains from my past and acting nice.
Thanks for filling me in on the toaster oven story. I should have been hanging around with you this week. I have trigger finger again and my middle finger on my left hand is permanently extended until I get a shot on Wednesday.
Granny Annie -
Oh my - so you are giving everyone the finger right now???
Villains they were - I still feel a bit guilty for ignoring them, but on the other hand, not really. :)
