Chain letters

My heartfelt appreciation goes out to all of you who have taken the time and trouble to send me "forwards" over the past 12 months.

Thank you for making me feel safe, secure, blessed and healthy.

Extra thanks to whoever sent me the email about rat crap in the glue on envelopes - cause I now have to
go get a wet towel every time I need to seal an envelope.

Also, I scrub the top of every can I open for the same reason.

Because of your genuine concern, I no longer drink Coca Cola because I know it can remove toilet stains, which is not exactly an appealing characteristic.

I no longer check the coin return on pay phones because I could be pricked with used needles

I no longer use cancer-causing deodorants even though I smell like a wild and wooly water buffalo on a hot day.

I no longer go to shopping malls because someone might drug me with a perfume sample and rob me and remove my vital organs.

I no longer eat KFC because their "chickens" are actually horrible mutant freaks with no eyes or feathers.

I no longer worry about my soul because at last count, I have 363,247 angels looking out for me.

Thanks to you, I have learned that God only answers my prayers if I forward an email to seven of my friends and make a wish within five minutes.

I no longer have any savings because I gave it to a sick girl on the internet who is about to die in the hospital (for the 1,000,258th time).

I no longer have any money at all in fact - but that will change once I receive the $15,000 that Microsoft and AOL are sending me for participating in their special on-line email program.

Yes, I want to thank you all so much for looking out for me that I will now return the favour!

If you don't send this email to at least 144,000 people in the next 7 minutes, a large pigeon with a wicked case of diarrhoea will land on your head at
5:00 PM (GMT) tomorrow afternoon. I know this will occur because it actually happened to a friend of my next door neighbour's ex-mother-in-law's second
husband's cousin's beautician's landlord's speech therapist's live-in-lover.

DO IT NOW OR ELSE!

Egg and Safety

To avoid egg-related illness from holiday foods:

* Do not eat unbaked cookie dough- dam i know but try to resist! bake! and no mircowaving does not work (yes.,..i tried and now still find myself finding bit of random dough here and there)- patience...
* Cook baked egg-containing dishes to160 degrees F. umm yeah get the tempmo out?!?
* Make recipes that call for raw or undercooked eggs, like eggnog, with eggs that have been treated to destroy Salmonella or with pasteurized egg products- the good ole Lion stamp!

 

there ya go, happy Christmas, dont get salmonella or that new strain of MRSA ...and enjoy eggnog with little moderation.

Xmas annoyances

1) tv ad's for those interactive dvd games, everyone has one out! U know u're going to play it once on christmas day, cos their aint jack on tele (point 2), but thats no excuse for a little britain interactive dvd quiz show! Just watch little britain its much more entertaining. or if u must buy a dvd which is actuly based on a board game (like that trival pursuit one)
2) Nothing on tele, i'm going to a place where theres no internet access, sky, or even freeview (grans house). Thus will be subjected to BBC1 endless "christmas specials" (i.e. my fam, eastenders...) films look rubbish, all old.
3)TV personalities telling me..... how to cook (Nigella and Heston et al), how to dress (those two gay men on channel 5 and those women in what not too wear et al..), how to decorate (again those house/style home decorating ppl on channel 4/5 et al), how to eat to not put on holiday pounds (those Diet Doc and that ghost Gill McKeith et al), how to tidy up (those two old house wifes or whatever women on channel 4)
4) Sports personality of the year 2006 farce...fixed....anyone related to the queen is going to win, its the BBC. She was born to ride those horses apparently...well i would be too if i have my own private stables...
5)TV Voting....call this number to vote for your fav/too eliminate/too waste money/too actualy use a phone cos no one does anymore apparently.....choose the x-factor, strict dancing....choose which endangered animal to give 500K to...vote for Britain fav regional chef....vote vote...if only politcal voting had as much power and impact...
 
Happy Christmas...
 
dont get me started on New year....Jolls Holland..........Hootanananananny scotish thing....
 
o just thought of
6) The new 'Eco-green' movement...dont expand airports, tax everything that uses a fossil fuel, dont use plastic bags...all started cos of David Cam'morron' now adopted by wanba be but never will Brown PM/mp. NOthing matters with China/India and still USA pumping out all that 'damaging' stuff so stop it. Its all an excuse so people dont have to spend money at Christmas buying me a Xbox360, and instead i'l get some 'home made' eco friendly, made out of old bits of crap present. Thanks. Heres a sock i made from wheat barley and carrot ends.
 
ooo and
7) Speed/express monopoly, whilst looking thru the Argos Bible, i came across express monopoly...now come on..if you aint got the time to sit down for an hour or so with family and friends to buy Mayfair and Park Lane and put as many hotels and hope some suckers lands on it, then dont even bother playing in the first place! Express! pah...
 
8) People wanting advice on

Christmas indulgence---its Christmas- live it up! or just dont buy the mince pies.

Holiday Eating Tips

Holiday Eating Tips

1. Avoid carrot sticks. Anyone who puts carrots on a holiday buffet table knows nothing of the Christmas spirit. In fact, if you see carrots, leave immediately. Go next door, where they're serving rum balls.

2. Drink as much eggnog as you can. And quickly. Like fine single-malt scotch, it's rare. In fact, it's even rarer than single-malt scotch. You can't find it any other time of year but now. So drink up! Who cares that it has 10,000 calories in every sip? It's not as if you're going to turn into an eggnog-alcoholic or something. It's a treat. Enjoy it. Have one for me. Have two. It's later than you think. It's Christmas!

3. If something comes with gravy, use it. That's the whole point of gravy. Gravy does not stand alone. Pour it on. Make a volcano out of your mashed potatoes. Fill it with gravy. Eat the volcano. Repeat.

4. As for mashed potatoes, always ask if they're made with skim milk or whole milk. If it's skim, pass. Why bother? It's like buying a sports car with an automatic transmission.

5. Do not have a snack before going to a party in an effort to control your eating. The whole point of going to a Christmas party is to eat other people's food for free. Lots of it. Hello?

6. Under no circumstances should you exercise between now and New Year's. You can do that in January when you have nothing else to do. This is the time for long naps, which you'll need after circling the buffet table while carrying a 10-pound plate of food and that vat of eggnog.

7. If you come across something really good at a buffet table, like frosted Christmas cookies in the shape and size of Santa, position yourself near them and don't budge. Have as many as you can before becoming the center of attention. They're like a beautiful pair of shoes. If you leave them behind, you're never going to see them again.

8. Same for pies. Apple. Pumpkin. Mincemeat. Have a slice of each. Or, if you don't like mincemeat, have two apples and one pumpkin. Always have three. When else do you get to have more than one dessert? Labor Day?

9. Did someone mention fruitcake? Granted, it's loaded with the mandatory celebratory calories, but avoid it at all cost. I mean, have some standards.

10. One final tip: If you don't feel terrible when you leave the party or get up from the table, you haven't been paying attention. Reread tips; start over, but hurry, January is just around the corner.

Remember this motto to live by:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming, "WOO HOO what a ride!"

Have a great holiday season!

cereal Smörgåsbord

Had the best idea going down the cereal section in tesco. So much choice that i ended up buying a variety pack. Not only does it remind one of hotel breakfasts (those cute lickle boxes) but it also give you lots of breakfast/lunch choice. But next came the big idea.
1) Find an empty cereal tuppawave box in cereal cupboard.
2) open all the boxes, and pour each into the main box
3) add a little shake
 
= 6 cereals in one.
Nice.

its a kit kat world

it started with just two fingers, then four. I'm having a nice break, then one huge finger "the chunky" my fav personally. Now we got all sorts of random favours...orange was a given...but........ now we've got lemon sorbet, lemon and lime, dark chocolate, jam, strawberries and cream, cookie dought, peanut butter. Whens it gonna end Kit kat man? Pizza favour? Thai green curry favour? Suprised they aint added Oats and Omega 3,6,9 and called it slim kat. Then again their new TVad with Monty is funny...again using the orginal 4 fingers...
note to kit kat, stop messing with the chocolate and waffers!
