Friday

Hot Diggity Dog

I had mentioned to Carla that I hadn't had a s'more all summer.  I haven't even been by a camp fire.  So, she invited my family over for hot dogs and s'mores.  It was a little early to start a fire when we got there...mainly because the sun was bright and it was hot.  We all laughed about being invited over for hot dogs as we sat inside at their table.  I think Roger was embarrassed but we reassured him that he shouldn't be because our family loves hot dogs no matter how they are cooked.  I think Roger likes being around Larry and our boys because then he can joke around like guys do.  Larry told me how much he enjoys being around Carla and Roger.  They are just good people and so thoughtful.

We did go out after cleaning up dinner and we had s'mores.  There's something about s'mores and summertime.....they just go together.  I have bought everything for s'mores a few times this summer but this was my first and only s'more.  It was so yummy.  It was fun spending the evening with Carla and Roger.  We enjoyed their gorgeous home and back yard.  My kids even had a really good time.  Kimi wouldn't sit by the fire because she had just washed her hair and didn't want it to smell like fire so she sat away from us and kept the mosquito's over by her.

Food 4 Thought Friday ~ This week's questions:


 ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 

 "BUSINESS AS USUAL"
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 
Breakfast ~ What businesses do you "keep in business"?   Well probably a few restaurants around here...I enjoy my lunch dates with friends.  Walmart...it's my go to store when I need ink for computer, food, toys for grands, and usually when I need them all at once.  I use to really love Jorgensen Books before they went out of business (I guess I wasn't enough to keep it open)  I also frequent Ben Franklin craft store but that was when I crafted more...now I'm trying to simplify, so I don't craft like I use to. Are there any businesses you avoid or refuse to patronize?  I don't like expensive stores and avoid them

Lunch ~ Have you ever had a home based business or worked at one?  If so, what or where? When I got married I tried a few different Home Party businesses and really enjoyed them. Princess Crystal (not my favorite because it is such a luxury and not appealing to everyone) Lunds Lite Candles (my favorite...they had new lines twice a year and they were cute decorations for your home) Rubber Stamps, and Dorling Kindersley Books.  I enjoyed getting these items for cost and it was fun getting out of the house in the evenings as well.  I was pretty good at selling things too but I thinks it's because I thought the things I sold were wonderful.

Dinner ~ What type of show business have you participated in? I got into the Jay Leno show once and got my picture taken with him on stage before his show.  When Jared got lost we were on the news for quite sometime.  I participated in Davaleen's 48 hour film festival project and was actually on the big screen for about 5 minutes ☺ 
Midnight Snack ~ Which phrase (or phrases) most resembles your week?  Taking care of business, none of your business, get down to business, that's show business, back in business, monkey business, mixing business with pleasure, like nobodies business, strictly business, business as usual? Probably taking care of business and monkey business.  I worked a lot on my blog books this week and played a few times with a few friends who took me to lunch for my birthday.  I also helped with a few of my grands and went and kissed on our new grand.  I even crocheted around a  few burp clothes.  
Recipe of the Week ~ (instead of your recipe for life what is it just for the week?) 
Don't Over Think Things!  I have over thought a lot this week concerning my daughter and new grand....do I call? do I go over? should I be...? what's too much?  what's not enough?  Thanks to my cute daughter in law I think I got my answers to those questions.  Natalie had some great advice and didn't make me feel dumb for expressing my thoughts and concerns to her.  You'd think I would have it down since this is my 9th grand but I don't...
