ParticipantHappy Caturday Littermates! Hope your little corner of the world is treating you well today. I am up early, insomnia was a guest at my house last night. The girls slept and I was counting sheep! LOL We have a simple brekkie today, donuts from Dunkin Donuts and some pasteries from Panera. There is also cereal, yogurt and fresh fruit. Come on by and say hello! What are you plans for the weekend? I need to go to the supermarket here in a bit before all the weekend “crazy” shoppers get out and about!

ParticipantHi, MC, yum yum, doughnuts, I will pick up a few before I head off to bed. All I did today was recover from the week, tomorrow (Sunday) I may have a friend coming round and we will go find some nice lunch 🙂 Otherwise, I will be working, bills to pay and I am behind on everything, as usual 🙁
MC, you need to kick that guest out on his ear.
22 January, 2011 at 12:50 pm #635515ParticipantI agree JCAT, I agree! How funny, Little Miss Wilma was sitting here with me and walked across the keyboard and turned the computer OFF! Then she lay on the keyboard and wouldn’t move! She started swatting at me and biting when I tried to move her. Guess she doesn’t want me on the computer! How is the M Mob?
22 January, 2011 at 1:05 pm #635516ParticipantOff to go to the store! Yay!
22 January, 2011 at 1:16 pm #635517ParticipantSorry, MC, I got distracted, saying good night to the M-Mob, actually. Millie is still a slow developer, I am worried about her, but Milo and Maddie are having lots of fun clambering around now and stalking each other, and Maisie is still crazy, an enthusiastic but slightly wrong-headed mother and vigorous licker! Hope you manage to avoid anyone too weird at the store. Little Miss Wilma thinks her meowmy should stop working and start peying attention to her, lol!
Have a great Saturday, all!

ParticipantMorning everyone!…… I’ve been lazy this morning, especially since I’m ‘house bound’ for both this weekend and the next……. today is the start of the Gasparilla parades, it’s the children’s parade……. my little 2- year old grand niece and her mom/aunts/grandma are coming over and we’re going to the parade, then coming back here to grill…… until then, I only have minor chores to get ready…….
…… a bit chilly today, I just hope it doesn’t rain!
22 January, 2011 at 2:42 pm #635522ParticipantMorning AV, enjoy your lazy weekend and enjoy the family coming to visit and see the parade 🙂

22 January, 2011 at 2:58 pm #635524ParticipantHave fun today and hope it doesn’t rain and spoil the parade.
22 January, 2011 at 3:02 pm #635525Participant…… it’s not supposed to rain, it just looks very overcast (the weather people here are only half right usually)……. we’ll see…..
….. anyone have a particular great pasta salad receipe? I’m thinking now, that would be a good addition to my hotdog/brats, coleslaw & chips menu……
22 January, 2011 at 3:07 pm #635526ParticipantI don’t have a pasta salad recipe, but your lunch sounds good 🙂

InactiveMorning, all. Deb, the “as hard as he tried” picture cracked me up, silly kitty 🙂
I did good at the gym today! But my stupid headache is definitely back 🙁 Looking on the bright side, I did get a break for almost 6 weeks.
Sorry AV, I went through our recipe file, no pasta salads.
Hope everyone has a good day, no matter what the weather does wherever you are.
22 January, 2011 at 3:09 pm #635528ParticipantMorning Kilroy! Damn that stupid headache, it should be someone else’s turn and if it needs help I have a list of ppl to send it too!!

JerseyJoanModeratorMorning everyone! It’s 2 here, but it is supposed to get cold tomorrow and Monday, lol! They say to beat the winter blues is to get outside; yeah, well me and my winter blues are just fine indoors by the fire! I’ll get some sunlight thru the windows, thank you very much! Going to see about brewing something in the crockpot; makes the house smell good and gives us something piping hot for dinner. Laundry is going now – thankfully nothing is frozen.
I am going to have a boston cream donut and a hot chocolate this morning.
What’s your cat’s question?
http://blog.holidays.net/index.php/2011/01/22/
Leela wants to know why cone-head Comet is still here. I do think she will like him someday – she’s just a stubborn diva!
Comet wants to know when the stupid collar can come off. I will check with the vet this morning. He is doing well and I don’t see any reason to keep it on anymore. He’s been such a trooper!
22 January, 2011 at 3:13 pm #635530ParticipantMorning Joan 🙂
I would be selfish and keep myself and that cold weather inside too….oh wait that is what I did in Chicago, well except for the day we went to Shedd Aquarium which was nice to see 🙂
22 January, 2011 at 3:46 pm #635531Participant…. ok, so I gooled a bunch of receipies and I think I’m set….. I’ve a good general idea of what I want, so I’ll use a little bit here and a little bit there…….
…. going down to cook now, will check in later!…… stay warm everyone!…. doesn’t seem like it will rain here, just a very windy day for the parade!
22 January, 2011 at 3:46 pm #635532ParticipantAV, this pasta salad looks good…its from Spark People (sent it to your email addy too)
Spinach and Tomato Pasta Salad (Chef Meg’s Makeover)
Most pasta salads are heavy on the pasta and light on everything else. This version, which can be served warm or cold, includes a hefty portion of vegetables–both spinach and tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz small pasta, such as ditalini or orzo
8 oz feta cheese, crumbled
16 oz grape tomatoes
4 c baby spinach
2 T capers, drained
1/4 t black pepper
2 T Parmesan or Manchego cheese, shredded
DIRECTIONS
Cook pasta according to package directions until it is al dente (firm to bite). While the pasta is cooking, place spinach, feta, and capers in a large bowl. Before draining pasta, add 1/4 cup of the pasta cooking liquid to the mixture; toss to combine. Place the tomatoes in the bottom of a colander. Once pasta is cooked, drain it over the tomatoes for a quick blanch. Toss tomatoes and pasta with the spinach mixture. Season with black pepper and garnish with shredded cheese.
Makes six-2 cup servings.
Number of Servings: 6
