I took care of ALL of my running around yesterday, And don't have to get out in this mess.
I don't understand the weather scare. It must be a Texas thing. ...... Originally Posted by KatieKatie

Haha. We could be doing that! I am at the point where I want to pull out the booze too. Wine and mall is about to happen I think. I love buzzed shopping. "I will take that, that, this, need that, this, this, ugly, gross but I still want it."
LOL...no kidding. My BFF is the queen of buzzed online shopping. My words to her...

Put the bourbon down and step away from the keyboard...

Friday was a total freeze-out, appointments cancelled, me sitting in my lonesome apartment until things thawed enough for me to escape to the Irish Chihuahua Refuge. Didn't want to repeat that, so just knocked Tuesday off my calendar entirely based on the weather predictions.

Last night I finished a marvelous Monday, covered my plants, left the water dripping in the bathtub, and scooted out of my incall apartment and drove home lo my little cottage in the woods in a light drizzle. Today it snowed just enough to make a snow chihuahua, but not a snowman. Curled up with warm wee doggies, Bailey's-laced hot chocolate, and my Irish grandmother's recipe collection in a very faded, repeatedly-tapped-back-together, size 4 shoebox. (My size 12 feet obviously didn't come from HER.)

I shouldn't drink and bake; made a lemon chess pie from scratch this morning, just finished taking a batch of homemade yeast rolls out of the oven, sweet Irish soda bread will be coming out any minute (the house is toasty and just smells WONDERFUL), shoved a turkey with apple-pecan dressing in a couple of hours ago, followed by bacon-wrapped potatoes in foil. The green bean casserole and marshmallow-covered yams are ready to go in next while cabbage and carrots simmer on the burner above.

The chihuahuas are circling the stove like Indians around the wagon train. Dinner will put us all into a coma, and more Bailey's will finish us off. Pretty good way to end an icy day indoors, over stuffed on an over-stuffed couch.

geeze-louise, Fancy! Who's gonna eat all that?
(sounds yummy, btw)

Oh, and on edit, what is a lemon "chess" pie? My fav is lemon meringue.
Now I'm STARVING, thx Fancy!


I am bored out of my mind. Too bad I don't drink alone...I've got all sorts of booze, but no one to share it with....sniff sniff

I do have friends here, bearing Tupperware for take-home.

I have a variety of citrus trees all over my little acre, covered with sewed-up old sheets. (Looks like a Bedouin tribe has camped out.) We have a lot of lemons to go through this time of year. I make lemon meringue pies from scratch, too. Gave quite a few out for Christmas. Oh, just switched from Bailey's to vodka-laced lemonade, btw. I would anticipate this to be my last post of the night.... SOBER, anyway.

Chess pie is an old Southern recipe, a scale-breaking cream/milk/sugar/egg custard, and adding lemon zest and juice gives it a delightful tart kick. This photo from the Shockingly Delicious website looks pretty close to mine:

First Thanksgiving (only 10 months early) for my new pups, Thor and Loki.

Second best thing to staying in bed on a cold day is staying in the kitchen, for me, anyway. Sex and food both feed primal hungers.

You can feed all of my primal hungers ANYtime Fancy.
