MONKEY MUSINGS DAILY OPEN DISCUSSION #52 10/03/09 - 11/24/09

[Green Eyes]

You know all the pictures they have been putting on line of the Wal Mart shoppers. I tell you I sure wish I would have had my camera this Sunday. I went to go get some kitty food. There was some man there. With white bleached hair half way down his back, arms filled with Tattoos and biker boots and very tight jeans. When he turned around it was everything I could do not to laugh. He had one of those hanging mustaches and go -tee bleached to match his hair and a very big beer bully. I would say he was in his late 50's early 60's. It was a sight. To funny.  Kind of looked like Dog the Bounty Hunter and Hulk Hogan

Jackie you do look warmer now that you have a wrap on.  I love that the little ghost holds up his trick or treat bag.  You can get double the chocolate.

I told MD about that site yesterday - she checked it out and was cracking up.  I told her I have never been happier about not shopping at Wal-mart (haven't been there in a couple years, I hate that place), cuz I'm sure I have looked hideous on occasions.  Not only do you have to fight for a parking space, wait in long check out lines, pay triple of what you intended on buying - now you have to dodge the fashion police.

Even on our worse days we couldn't come close to what some of these people look like.

Hi Guys.
Could I get you all to pray for me again on Tuesday ? Not real hard praying.
I had the surgery for breast cancer August 28 and now I have to have another one ( to get just a little bit more ). It's just a one day thing this time, not staying. And it won't be as bad physically or emotionally for me. 
Most of my test results came back ok and I am going to have radiation after I heal up from this last surgery. Some drugs after but I don't know which ones yet. No chemo, unless something unexpected happens. I know that this is a lifelong thing for me now but for now, I feel I can deal with what's been dealt and I am grateful for that.

Kat_Gram, when you say "not real hard praying", does that mean it's ok for me to pray for you while I'm lying in hospital bed? If so, you've got it! And yes, we share the same God.

Good luck!

Pot Roast in a crock pot is a staple at my house!

Hi GE!!

I think I had the dishwasher too crammed with dishes and it just knocked against something in the wash cycle. I don't know but it coame out that way!   

I didn't see it, and was drinking coffee when I felt it on my lip. I love those mugs! The handles are big, and they stay cool when you reheat coffee. ( I do that a lot ).

[crazybabyborg]

I was hoping I could work from home all day, but I have to go in............. 


I'll see you guys later!

As a quick test you can try this:

2-3 skinless boneless chicken breasts
1 can cream of mushroom soup


I tried this the other day with a mini crock pot I purchased.  I just put it on high for a few hours then turned it down and cooked for the rest of the day.  Probably cooked about 10 hours total.  Chicken fell apart easy and it was great on rice.  You can add vegetables if you want towards the end of the cooking cycle just to heat through.

So sorry CBB....you can have one that says Mere...!

Jackie....two of us use the same recipe for crockpot roast.....and it is sooooo easy.

1 roast...any kind that will fit your crockpot
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
1 can of french onion soup
3 or so garlic pieces - cut in half
a little salt and pepper

Cut small slits in roast and stuff with garlic.....lightly salt and pepper roast....Put roast in crockpot....mix soups together and pour over roast....turn crockpot to high for 4 hours or so....but, even better, cook on low for 8 hours or so.

You can add some canned carrots and potatoes during the last hour to heat the veggies.  I serve over
rice as the soups make a great gravy.  The roast will mostly fall apart.

  That sounds like a winner!!
