    Chocolate cheetos and Chocolate goldfish?   I may be in snack heaven!  I have GOT to go grocery shopping afte work today--need dog food or I'm going to be the dog food--but I will just HAVE to find some of these!  Yum, yum! 

    Maybe I need a chocolat covered car:

    Looking at all the food pictures was making me hungry until I got to the chocolate covered crickets. Think I have to go take some Tums now.

    Elimar, Love the leaves spelling love.

    The chocolate covered crickets are enough to make my sweet tooth go totally away!

    Crickets?  I only made it to the choco-bacon before the bile started to rise.  On the other hand, I must have the same eating disorder as Seyla, 'cause that looks kind of appetizing, even at this hour of the morning.

    Hi guys ! lots of  fun over there. If there is no appetites , I used to watch advertisement on  various types of  shows on readymade food items in TV.  I had already filled my stomach seeing the cheetos, chocolates I might skip my dinner now.

    Hi everyone, we had fried butter at the state fair this year!  So chocolate covered cheetos sounds great compared to the fried butter.  It apparently was a big hit! Yuch!!!!

    Keep them coming.

    I can't even imagine fried butter. Or chocolate crickets.  I've actually tried chocolate bacon and it actually wasn't that bad but not something I'd want to have very often - like once in a lifetime would be enough.

    I don't even know how they could DO that!  The fried beer, to go with it, was in Texas.

    I would have liked to try the fried beer, don't think so much with the fried butter.

    I just found this thread and have only read this last page of it. Sounds like rather a strange group here--I may just fit in! Although I am not a Cheetos fan. Nor a chocolate-covered crickets fan. However, I do like Chocolate Cheerios. Is that close enough?

    I think Chocolate Cheerios would be close enough.  Welcome Susan.

    susantm, I'm sure you mean strange in the most complimentary sense.  Right now we have just a few women in active treatment, and a few more getting ready for some tests, so around here the cancer talk is mixed in with whatever else we are doing or thinking of at the moment.  No one expects you to read all of the 200+ pages here, so just jump right in.  Are you having the rads treatments now?  My Dx was similar (but with IDC) and last Fall I had rads and now have been on Tamox. for a year.  Let us know where you're at.

    As for the Cheetos, not a requirement, but you do get extra "points" if you can fake it and talk a good game of loving and devouring them.  (As Seyla has recently confessed!!!)

    I was out walking...hardly a nature walk, it was all sidewalks, but I came home with a pocket full of hickory nuts.  O.K. what I am saying is somebody had a hickory tree that dropped some on the sidewalk, and now there are a few less on the sidewalk.  They are so hard to crack.  I have to use a hammer.  There is not that much actual nut to pick out but I think they are tastier than walnuts.

    I have two black walnut trees, but I can't stand those nuts.  Don't like that flavor myself, but I know some people love them for baking.  It's back breaking labor to rake and pick all those nut balls up. Squirrels bring them up onto my deck and leave the remnants of the hulls all over too.  What a mess.

    Carrol2, I see you are sporting a new look.  Is that a buzz cut under the hat now?

    I thought I submitted something, but it went away. I was just telling elimar that I did mean strange in the best possible way. And I mentioned that I had my lumpectomy on October 11 and will start rads November 29--held up a bit by various things like the sim machine breaking down. I'm looking forward to getting started, so I can get them finished!

    elmiar nope never buzzed the hair. I still have hair all around the sides and back that stick out from my hats. It never really fell out like a mess or anything so i figured why bother. I had one or two days where about 50% of all the hair on my head came out in the shower and then it stopped. I wash it then tie it in a very thin tiny pony tail every day. In a hat people see lots of wisps sticking out and think i did not lose my hair. If you ever saw Lidia the chef on TV who owns a resaurant here in KC I kind of look like her hair there was some scalp showing on top and it was long in the back and sides. Not a great look but i think its kind of a comb over thing i would not be able to do with a buzz.

    Carrol2, maybe I don't get around as much as others do on this discussion board, but this is the first time I've ever heard a woman say she had a chemo "comb-over." LOL Laughing

    lol elimar well its kind of a comb up. I kind of comb it all from the back and sides onto the top and then its in a hat 24/7, even when i sleep unless it falls off by accident.

    Welcome new Susan and other newbies while I've been out on the road.

    Headed back to OH from KY -- not too far, DH driving, me with laptop hooked up to cig/aux light at 70 MPH we're an even funnier/strange/loving/hilarious group at 70 MPH!! LOLOLOL.

    Newbies. Be aware. We are addictive. It's not just the exotic food selections, but the heart felt support for any of our newbies in the midst of needing love -- that will rope ya in.

    The thing is, ya never know if we're gonna be cutting up w original hilarity, a la choc covered crickets or throwing our support around one of our own Middies-in-need a la our own Paulding facing down her latest chapter.

    We're here. Thick and thin and that's pretty amazing. Two hundred pages of unique joy & support.

    Awesome.

    Glad to be a middie!!!

    This thread is one of my "grateful-for's" to be enumerated this week.

    LOVE to each and every one of you!!!!

    And thanks..........................

    xx00xx00xx00xx

    Safe journey home, faith, our well-travelled sister.  I'm in awe that you can do laptop in the car and not get queasy.  (Oh, and per your earlier post...how fun that will be when you travel and get to visit with our Cookie!)

    HOW does one fry butter????? Even more baffling--how does one fry BEER??????    I have had fried ice cream, it was good but not spectacular.
