No worries tho, I've got a jar of fake nacho cheese to poor on the extra chips. Dig in guys! Tinkerbell1962 made some really high quality nosh and I've got all the stuff for some strong margaritas. Who wants one with ice and who wants a blended?

I was going to get her flowers but realized how pointless it would be since she will be gone on a ship for a week and wouldn't get to enjoy them. Instead, I will settle for cleaning up the backyard & doing loads of housework while she is gone so she can come home to a clean house =)

Originally Posted By Autopia Deb You're mom will love that you did all that for you! And if you want to get her flowers, they can be a "welcome home" surprise. Gotta admit, those chocolate covered strawberries sound gooooood!
Originally Posted By Kira lol that's ok =) I read your post and automatically assumed you were talking about the cat girl & treats....which I agree, the cute factor of that totally beats out my post LOL
