    Sweet Pea!  Remember Lakeside?  I remember going up the Roller-coaster, and my Brothers friend leaned over and kissed me!  I thought I died and went to heaven!

    After we graduated High School, me and my girl-friends went to Elitch's....Ha!  None of us ever drank, so that was our "party!"  Oh!  You live in Centennial!  We live in "West Highlands"....  Ha, ha!  Wasn't that roller coaster at Elitch's called the cyclone?  I THINK it was!

    Used to be called just plain old North Denver, but somehow, we became sophisticated, and uppity!  Wink  Our Daughter used to live over there by Cherry Park, before they moved to Orlando.

    My mom and I "shared" a 65 Buick Skylark convertible. Big 310 Wildcat engine. Had a lot of fun with it, but no tickets. Anyway, they went out one nite in it. So my dads car was there and I wasn't about to stay home. He had a 64 Chevy 11 convert. Got the car out and back, no problem. Figured all ok. He asks me the next day where I went? Uh, how'd you know? The gas gauge went down. Duh

    Chevy I lov the highlands that is a beautiful area. One of my friends lives over there and just loves it. Do you like Pasquini's... Great restaurants up your way. Ugh I found the funniest tee shirt at Park Meadows trying to post it so you all can get a good laugh today... Well we will see if I can figure it out.



    Hugs,

    I've never been to Pasquini's, but I love  the "Pizza Salad" at Parisi's on 44th and Tennyson!  We still live in a little Victorian House, next to an irrigation ditch.... built in 1886!   But our whole neighborhood is changing so fast!  When a house sells, it is scraped, and they put in huge 3 story doubles!    They then sell each side for almost $800,000!  It's just unvelievable.   I think the area is so hot, because it is close to "down-town," the mountains, and highways!  

    Spookie, those old cars really ate up the gas!  But I remember when we were just 16, and we could buy gas for about .25 cents a gallon!  And we would pump it ourselves from those glass-topped pumps!

    Beautiful home Chevy.  Lucky you!

    Thanks to all for the well wishes regarding my upcoming surgery.  I was told DaVinci would be there in the OR with me.  HA!  Too bad it is not Leonardo (DaVinci) or even better, DiCaprio!

    I was going to ask her that, but I thought she must have known what she meant, only maybe not...Wink And I didn't want her to think she didn't know what she was talking about, because I sure didn't!

    Chevy, that's a great house. My dad was a health inspector for the city of Denver. He knew all the best "whole in the wall" restaurants and the safest ones to eat at. Once a month, on Saturday morning, we would head up to North Denver. Visit Carboni's bakery for just out of the oven bread and then to a market where we would get imported tomato paste and long spaghetti. Then to another Carboni's for Romano cheese and sausage. If it was around Easter we would go to an ice cream shop and get canoli shells and filling. what a great dessert. We would eat at Patsy's and Jim's pizzeria. I loved Frangi's ravioli. Used to bring them back to Oregon in my suitcase.



    We always preferred Elitchs over Lakeside- better kiddie land and more shade. Do you remember when Starr Yelland's teenage son stood up on the roller coaster and fell to his death? He did it right under the sign that said "no standing"...



    I miss the old Denver.



    Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Hope we hear from Ducky soon.



    Veggy, speaking of green pee.. I took myself to urgent care one morning when my pee was reddish pink...tested negative....I realized I had a big beet salad for supper the night before,

    Red beet salad pee made me smile. I'm too hot to laugh.



    I put together a spinach artichoke dip for tomorrow. I never made one before. Anyone want to be a guinea pig and test it for me? I tried to stay true to the recipe. After I cool down I have to make a cake...from a box.



    Hope everyone is doing well, especially those going through chemo and procedures. My fuzz is growing a little longer. I was thinking when it gets a bit longer I want to get lightening stripes razored in on the sides.



    Hugs

    Beet salad hahzhaha--they all had a laugh on that one.

    Veggie u'r going to put u'r oven on??? I had/have somewhere a recipe for a delicious cake u make in the crock pot. It's like 4 ingrediants and takes 3 hrs on low and u put vanilla ice cream on it warm--OH I wish I knew where it was It's so yummy and no oven. Sorry

    Phyloeagleye--I saw them too but I didn't want to give Chevy the satisfaction of me noticing it--she probably took a chicken and pulled it's neck as far as she could.00she's do that u know.

    I just downloaded about 20 new books.  Yippee!  All for free.  Some are even authors that I know.  Now I can sit on my chemoass for DAYS and just read!  Well, that's not really different, but you know what I mean.  At least cammi does or says she does understand the weird crap that I type.

    Hope everyone is having a good weekend!  Just had dinner at my sis's house.  It was yummy.  It was hotter than 10,000 mothe.....um, firecrackers today!  About 102, I think.  I'm glad I was inside vegetating. (no offense veggie who is not the chicken food)

    I used to love driving at sorta high speeds in my little Fiat.  I was still young and stuff.  It had no a/c of course and in Houston summers it was HOT.  I used to have about a 13 mile commute home from where I worked downtown so I would drive home with the top down. That was back in the pantyhose days.  I'd get sick of the traffic and heat about halfway home and while traffic was stop and go, I would scootch around and peel off my pantyhose and throw them in the back.  It's a trick when you're driving a stick.   Sometimes other drivers applauded!  I'm glad nobody every followed me home. I couldn't do that these days.  Ankle monitor, you know.

    Well almost really fouled this up. Wasn't watching. I hit cntrlc then went to backspace and hit delete. Had I not had copied it. I would have lost the whole thing. It's safely pasted here and in the original area but no longer a topic thread which is okay.

    I made my cake and frosted it too. We put a fan in the window in the kitchen and blew the hot air outside. Now I'm trying to figure out how long to cook the artichoke-spinach dip in the crock pot.

    PM'd you re DH.

    Hi ladies, have been lurking since this thread started and get the giggles with all your shenanigans...I don't think there is

    Morning gals! 

    Yes Sweet Pea...!  That Colorado Blue Spruce tree is over 100 years old now!  Was 50 years, when we moved in.  We had another one in the back, planted at the same time, but had to have it taken out....  They can REALLY be a mess with the needles, etc....

    Under it is a "little"...(well it used to be little) dwarf pine tree I had planted in a wooden barrel where yet aNOTHER tree had been planted. 

     

    And what do you mean Phylliseeingthings??? Those are two white Swans!  They were "watch swans".... "WERE" because they have been moved to the back...Ha, ha!

    Nope, no chickens for me...  Chicken-sittin' is only hard if you have to go in their coop, withOUT them making a mad dash for any open space!   I THOUGHT of bringing over a can of mace to tame those girls down, but it would not be appropriate...especially to their owners.

     

    But glad you like the house... I was up on the front-porch roof painting it one year....  but wouldn't do it again...

     

    Julianna, when my DH and I were going together, we used to go get a loaf of warm "cripple" from Carbone's....  It was cheaper, because didn't bake as "pretty" as some... Then we would go buy either a cube of butter, or a pack of Salami, and go eat it all...Ha!  Dating did not cost us much...  And New Years Eve, we would splurge and go to Patsy's!  It's still there you know! 

     

    Yes, I remember about his Son!  Also when the little train rolled over off the tracks and someone else got killed.  That's when they took the train out.   I worked there in about 1953... in the "Barbecue"... just up the front walk-way to the left, by the Merry-go-round!  I made 55 cents an hour, but got a "raise" to 60 cents when I worked behind the counter!  Do you remember when they would have a DJ come in on week-end nights and take requests and play them on the radio?  We were dancing all over that place, Ha, ha!  And the DJ would say your NAME over the radio, and who the request was FOR!!!

     

    And JIM'S PIZZERIA~!   We LIVED there!    I remember making-out in the car, while waiting for our pizza to be made!  And the next morning, my LIP was the size of a toaster! 

     

    Thanks for the memories! 

     

    Miss Phylliwiththenohow!  From Barnes & Noble?  I LOVE those free books!  You mean into your Nook?  Did you download any trashy books?  Those are fun too!  And the "short-stories".....  Somehow they are just easy to read, and without 50 million characters.  I read too, you know.  And you LOOSE WOMAN!!!  I'll BET the other drivers were going NUTS!  Ha, ha!   Yes.... a stick!  I think that's all there WERE in those days.... I still drive one...

    Yes, your ankle-monitor would put a damper on your stripping antics.

     

    Sassy, I just copy and paste my post after "writing" it, then I can go from page to page and not lose it... Is that basically what you mean? 

     

    Hi Blondie and Veggyrachelrayperson!   I love to cook too.... sometimes.   I just do box-cakes.... they are so much simpler!  When I make up recipes, they usually are a complete flop!

    DO NOT EVER MIX FRESH DELICIOUS PINEAPPLE IN ANYTHING! Especially a cake.... like a fruit cake... It will screw the whole thing up.  I mean it doesn't even make a decent PUDDING!  It was a horror story!  That thing bubbled up whilst baking, and I thought it came ALIVE!  Like a volcano!  I was ready to call an ambulance .... for the STOVE!!!   So sometimes improvising is dastardly.

     

    Marywiththestinkers.....  Just carry around some room spray, and spray them all over!   Did your DH tell you it was a spider?  Ha!  My Dad did!    I watched the races too!   Hey, I hope your dizziness gets better.... I just HATE that! 

     

    We miss you too Chickers!  ((( littlechick))))

     

    Hi Aussie!  So fun to have you here!  Nah, we're only different because you're further...  Hope you stay awhile.... I know!  I'll fix you a chocolate coke, and we'll sit around and talk sports.... Ha!  Nope, I don't know sports!  That's what guys do.  Know anything about chickens? 

     

    Love all you Hooligans!  xoxoxo

    Everybody must have turned in early last night. Didnt have much to read when I woke up this morning. Had to laugh at myself, kept looking out the window while I was still in bed. It looked really foggy..Kept asking dh if it was foggy outside, he kept saying no... so when I finally sat up and looked out the window, I figured out that it was just the bottom of my windows were so dirty I couldnt see out of them...I geuss we all know what Im going to do today!
