Picture of the Day

[Road Scholar]

1. Good Morning! Happpy Friday!

I hope you have a nice weekend.
The prez.:hi: :loveya: :pals:

[MissHoneychurch]

2. Good morning prez

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

I will have a nice weekend. Having friends come over Sat and Sun.

Do you have any plans?

[Road Scholar]

4. Friends over sounds nice. I think I'll stay home and do some things

around here. I'm waiting for a little warmer weather so I can go fishing. It's gonna be sort've a blue weekend I guess. I like every season but it's between Winter and Spring. Getting tired of one, can't wait for the next.Have a glass of wine for me.:hi: :loveya: :pals:

[MissHoneychurch]

7. A relaxing weekend at home can be nice too

:)

The month I like least in November. It is mostly gray and rainy and depressing here that month.

But now the spring flowers come up ... the first color of the year. I can't wait for the fresh green.

I will have a glass of wine for you, promised :hug:

[backtoblue]

62. Thanks

Hope you have a good one as well. I think I'll spend it at the park with my five year old. It's supposed to be in the seventies here all weekend. (but with a chance of rain) :hi: :pals:

[old mark]

3. Good morning, I see we have made it to Friday.....

have a lovely weekend, and remember to turn your clocks ahead Sunday morning - we have one extra hour to sleep this weekend.

Hope to see you again Monday. :hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

5. Good morning mark

:hi: :hug:

Yes, we made it to Friday ... finally.

I just checked. Europe won't switch till March 29th.

Oh, and by turning the hour ahead you will lose an hour sleep and not win.

[old mark]

6. Obviously, I need more sleep right now.....

but I am enjoying my tea and a nectarine...



mark

[MissHoneychurch]

8. Just finished drinking my tea

:)

So if you start the summer time this weekend it means I am only 5 hours ahead instead of 6 for the month of March :)

[AirmensMom]

9. Good morning, MissHC!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

TGIF! :bounce: We're celebrating by having a cookout at lunch for the guys. Want to come? :9

Got any weekend plans?

Great pic! :fistbump:

[MissHoneychurch]

10. Good morning AirmensMom

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

What the heck are you doing here at this time??? :hug:

I would love to come. But I can't cancel neweurope who is coming Sunday.

Got your pics!! Amazing!! Love it.

[AirmensMom]

14. I don't know ...

just woke up, that's all. :hug:

Well, OK. Have fun with neweurope and we'll get together another time. :P

I love it, too! :bounce: It's really getting exciting! :woohoo:

[MissHoneychurch]

16. Will you stay awake

or go back to bed? I hope you won't do anything today neither :hug:

Believe me, I will have fun with neweurope :P

[AirmensMom]

17. Probably will stay up.

I'd have to get up in less than an hour anyway. :shrug:

Not planning on doing anything big. Might have to make sure the bills are paid, though.

I bet you will. :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

18. OK

:hug:

Sounds like extra snuggle time with Satchmo :D

That is what I ment. Nothing heavy :hug:

[AirmensMom]

19. He's not awake yet.

I was thinking maybe an extra long hot bath. That would be a yummy way to start the day. :loveya:

No, nothing heavy. I have a few fun things to do if I feel like it. :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

20. Ohhh that sounds great

Go ahead and take a hot bath!!!

You will be busy enough this morning preparing for your lunch :)

[AirmensMom]

21. Going to ...

in about a minute.

Yeah, gotta put cookies in the oven. If I buy cookie dough and bake it, the guys think the cookies are "homemade." That's the best I can do while all this stuff is going on. It's nice that they're so appreciative. :D

OK, I'll be back after I get my bath, do my kitty chores, and get my coffee. :hi: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

22. You could bake brownies

so easy to make :)

Alright, I will be having my lunch break in a minute too and will be gone for maybe 15 minutes while I get me something to eat.

Please give my baby a hug while you feed the kitties.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[AirmensMom]

36. I could,

but I won't. Not likely that I have the ingredients on hand.

Your baby only cared about food and running outside to catch a mouse. I'll have to deliver your hug later. :P

:loveya: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

37. As long as you do deliver it

:D

Let's see

Flour, brown sugar, eggs, chocolate (you don't have chocolate at home????), nuts. Isn't that it??? :P

[AirmensMom]

38. You KNOW I will.

:loveya:

Forgot the butter and vanilla. I think I have chocolate. Not sure I have brown sugar and I think I only have bread flour. Will that work?

[MissHoneychurch]

44. I didn't use vanilla in my recipe

but butter, yes-

No idea. Is there a difference between "normal" flour and bread flour?

[Callalily]

24. Good morning AirmensMom!

You are up early!

Geez, if only I could come to your cookout with men, oh wait, men as guests! :rofl: You live a charmed life. ;)

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[AirmensMom]

39. Good morning, Miss Lily!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Yes, I was. And then I took a long hot bath in natural vanilla jasmine bath salts. Yummy! :9 I bet I missed you. :(

:spray: :rofl: Dirty stinky men ... but sweet as can be. :loveya: I suppose you're right. :hug:

[Callalily]

46. Oh that bath sounds lovely.

I can't remember the last time that I took a bath, years for sure.

Hey, men are men - and it seems like you've got plenty of them. :rofl:

*sigh* Gotta go. Running an errand before heading to work. Wishing you a great weekend.

:hug:

[malta blue]

11. Love. Love. Love. the picture

:wow:

It just really says something to me.....

Good morning dear friend :hi::loveya:

Sometimes I wish I didn't have dogs :hide:

I have the day off, yet here I am at 5am because the want out :(. But truly, I don't know what I would do without them, so it really doesn't matter how often they wake me up.

[MissHoneychurch]

12. Good morning malta

:wow: Thank you!!!


Cats aren't better. They wake you up at 5am because they are "hungry" :rofl:

But the plus part on your side is you can go back to sleep and not worry about getting up in time for work. Well, OK, except get Little mb up in time for work. But that has nothing to do with the doggies :rofl:

[Jamastiene]

13. Good Morning, MissHoneychurch!

zOMG, that's a gorgeous picture. I love architecture and interior design like that...

Instead, I have my plastic garden tub...BUT...I do love my garden tub too. Epsom salts, chamomile, lavender, sweet pea, and violet and some Mr. Bubble, and I'm set for a nice relaxing bath while I watch old black and white pirate movies and The Wizard of Oz.

I do love architecture and interior design like that. At my old place, I used to have a bookcase, that I built, that went all the way across my bedroom wall. Unfortunately, I only have a smaller bookcase on the backside of my sink here at the new place.

One day, though.

One day, I will add a room, make it my study, and build a nice bookcase and display my books and my knickknacks again. I still have my statuettes of Bast and the two tall Siamese cat statuettes from Japan too. So, it'll be pretty...when I get financially in shape that I can afford nice things again.

In the meantime, I'll take nice smelling baths and dream...

:)

[MissHoneychurch]

15. Good morning Jamestine

:hi: :hug: :loveya:

I am a sucker for old libraries. :)

I bet you have a lovely place already.

[Callalily]

23. Good morning MissH!

That picture is GREAT!

I too am glad that it's Friday, and I'm hoping my work day goes by fast. Meeting a friend after work for drinks/dinner and a concert, so I'm looking forward to some fun this evening.

Picked up needed ingredients for the Stodola. Not sure if I'm going to make it Saturday or Sunday, but I'm excited to try a new recipe. I'll let you know how it turns out.

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

27. Good morning Callalily

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

What kind of concert?

You mean the Soljanka? I think I will cook it Saturday evening and have it Sunday re-heated. That way it tastes even better. Then we can compare the results Monday :D

[Callalily]

31. *blushing* Now why

didn't spell check pick that up? ;) Yes, I meant Soljanka. And yes, you are right, dishes like this always tastes better the following day. Hmmmmm . . . maybe you've convinced me to make it tomorrow. That way I can just be lazy on Sunday.

Going to see Percussion Cincinnati Group. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uWziENtGfx8

[MissHoneychurch]

33. No problem

:hug:
Definitely cook it Saturday and be lazy Sunday :D

Yo always go to so many concerts. I am jealous. I mean I could do it here too but mostly I am either to lazy or it is too expensive.

[Callalily]

47. Yup, I think I'll take your

advice. I can do a cooking afternoon here tomorrow. Oh, I think some home made bread would go well with the Soljanka.

I enjoy going to concerts, listening to live music. And there's so many talented people/groups out there. Luckily, many times I can get concert tickets for quite a reduced price!

Gotta get to work. Wishing you a great time at your party. If you have time, take a pic of your Soljanka and I'll try to do the same. We can compare on Monday. ;)

:hug:

[SalmonChantedEvening]

25. Good Morning MissHoneychurch! Happy Friday!

:hi: :hug: :loveya: :pals:

It's already warmer than it was for the high most of the week!! Yes!! :woohoo:

Have a great weekend and embrace the couch! :rofl:

[MissHoneychurch]

29. Good morning SCE

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Could you please send some of the nice warm weather over here? Thanks in advance. :D

Oh believe me, I will embrace my couch.

And you have fun with your niece and nephews!!

[SalmonChantedEvening]

34. Check your jetstream :)

It's already on the way.

You do the same with your guests. :hug: :toast:

Coffee. Of thee I sip. :donut:

[MissHoneychurch]

35. Thank you

:D

Btw, are you having troubles getting into the Lounge?

[SalmonChantedEvening]

43. Not really

Just everywhere else on the net.

I need to kill my startup menu and run that myfastpc program.

[MissHoneychurch]

45. It was a cookie problem

I am all good again.

[JCMach1]

26. Guten Tag!

[MissHoneychurch]

30. Guten Tag JC

:hi:

How are you doing?

So I saw in the other thread that you don't like European frontlader washing mashines. Sounds like you never had a German one :P

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

28. Good morning, MHC. Nice photo

Is that a photo of your new office? Every office should have a fireplace, with a mirror above the mantle. I hope that chandelier is filled with little flourescent bulbs.

I know it's not a photo of MY workspace. I'd have the mirror covered with sticky notes and bumper stickers.

:hi:

[MissHoneychurch]

32. Good morning

:hi:

No, it isn't my working place - unfortunately. It is the library here: http://www.pueckler-museum.de/englisch.htm

[blueraven95]

40. Good Afternoon, MissH

I called out sick today, so I'm heading back to bed, right after I hit post here.


:hug:

[AirmensMom]

41. Good morning, blueraven!

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

I hope you feel better soon. :hug:

[MissHoneychurch]

42. Good morning blueraven

I hope it is a mental health day :hug:

[Brewman_Jax]

48. G'day, MissH

:hi: :hug:

The day is sunny here, winter is not to be seen--for now. Projected high temp is 21C. :woohoo:

[MissHoneychurch]

49. Good morning Brewman

Not fair :cry: It will be rainy and cool the whole weekend :cry:


But you brighten up my day :D

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

[Brewman_Jax]

50. You're too kind

and you have the new couch to test on the weekend. :D

[MissHoneychurch]

51. And I will

and I will :D

[Brewman_Jax]

52. Dreary weekend

good for watching movies, ordering pizza or Thai food, and staying in under the blankets. :P

[MissHoneychurch]

54. Oh yes

but I will have guests over Saturday and Sunday in the afternoon. So I have to prepare for that a bit.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

53. Hello MissHc --

:loveya: :hug: :hi: Nice angle on that pic, right. Into a mirror?

[MissHoneychurch]

55. Good morning Tuesday

:hi: :loveya: :hug:

Yup :D

[Tuesday Afternoon]

56. and guess what --

It is a beautiful sunshiny day here. Will get into the high 60's today and going into the 70's all weekend.

I love it but, I am weird. I love the rainy days, too. I bet rainy days in Germany (anywhere in Europe) are lovely, too.

[MissHoneychurch]

57. I don't mind rain

but the overcast and dark light all day is depressing. Especially if it continues for days without seeing the sun. x(

[backtoblue]

58. Good morning to ya!

:hangover:

[MissHoneychurch]

60. Good morning

:hug:

The weekend will be here faster than you think :D

:donut:

[Pacifist Patriot]

59. Good morning. I am postponing for as many seconds as I can...

having to go pay bills and then clean the house. Wooofreakinghoo.

[MissHoneychurch]

61. Good morning

:hi:

I have to clean my place too. But fortunately it isn't looking too bad at the moment.

And bills .... they take most of it right away off my account anyway. I barely have to write bills.
