Thank you, Lena! His interview was only around half an hour long. Sounds like it went well, though. And they're hiring multiple positions, so here's hoping...
Sounds like fun! Sounds like you wrangled the young bipeds just fine, too.Agree! I used to have bunch of aprons, chef’s hats, rolling pins and such, would do cookie baking playdates for 7-8 kids.... my kitchen cabinets and counters are up fir major work. But it was so much fun!
Thanks, Yvonne. I sure hope so!Here's hoping the gods of employment shine on significant others today!
Thank you. This one sounds delish to me!Precut butternut squash
Onions
Garlic
Apple
Carrot
Vegetable broth
Pumpkin spice
1/4 cup cream not necessary though.
Pepper
Sautéed veggies in pot then added broth and simmered. Blended in blender.
Toasted a French baguette with butter and a few of them had shaved Parmesan.
The guy on that very creative cake is in a kayak and smiling. I'd say that's plenty accurate for @Maro2Bear! The only thing missing is the camera!I have no idea what you look like!! Sorry if it’s way off!!
That's a perfect cake for Mark...
Oh dear. Didn't see that. Thanks Bea for the heads up. [emoji3]

Ah, finally a picture of Mark, not just his kayak! Great to put a face to the name!
That wasn't Mark??I have no idea what you look like!! Sorry if it’s way off!!
Am I too late today ???? A very Happy Belated Birthday to you. A lot of kayaking in summer and a lot of carving beautiful Santa Clauses in winter !Record breaking rains have parted. Sunshine has muscled its way through fog, mist and cloud cover for the great reveal. Blue sky remains.

I used to look on the "Members" page and take note of which long term member had a birthday that day. I started getting bogged down with sitting at the computer (and addicted to the Forum), so I quit checking the birthday section, but I would still start a birthday thread when a well known member posted something and their birthday banner showed up on their post. But a couple days ago I was asked if we missed a certain person's birthday, and it dawned on me that not all the members post something on their birthdays, hence I was missing making a birthday thread for some, and may just possibly have hurt some feelings.Oh dear. Didn't see that. Thanks Bea for the heads up. [emoji3]
I am a faithful Jeopardy watcher. Hardly ever miss a show. Two things that bother me - A WHOLE LOT!!!!! - First one is when the contestants are looking at the board to choose a question, the always say, "Uh-h-h-h-h-h. . ." and then choose the question. Second thing is at the intermission when Alex talks to each contestant he usually mentions something to get them to relate a story. 99% of the time the contestant begins his or her story with "so". . . So, my mom and I were watching Jeopardy. . .So I was on a round the world trip. . . So my teacher asked for volunteers. . . What's with SO? Can't people relate a story without beginning with 'so'?
So after I fed, watered and cleaned up after tortoises I took my wheelbarrow and rake down to the wood pile. I stacked all the firewood, then I raked up all the bark and junk and took it out to the manure pile. I worked so hard that I was able to take off my jacket, and by the time I got back into the house (with no fire in the wood stove), it was warm enough in there that I also had to take off my sweater! So now it's time to feed me and Misty and find a good story on my Kindle.
There shouldn't be hurt feelings, Yvonne. We're grown-ups -- more or less!I used to look on the "Members" page and take note of which long term member had a birthday that day.

Starting today, I've gone back to checking the birthday box on the Members page, so there should be a birthday thread for those members who have posted a lot and are familiar to us.
No problem for me. Get well soon.Oh and sorry for those of you with weak stomach/sensitive to sight of blood. Did’t even think about that. Probably should have not post that pic...[emoji849] sorry
Totally agree.There shouldn't be hurt feelings, Yvonne. We're grown-ups -- more or less!
