  • This weekend I went to my parents for a smelt fry. We also had french
    fries, mashed potato smiley faces and chicken nuggets (home made and
    very tasty). Then there was hot tub time and playing of Apples to
    Apples (good game, worth checking out, especially if you have a big
    family that likes to make noise).

    On Saturday we went to see a playing of a restored version of the old
    silent Phantom of the Opera film in downtown Fort Wayne at the restored
    Embassy Theatre, complete with actual theatre organ accompaniment of
    the orignal score from the film. I had forgotten how creepy the
    original Phantom actually was.

    Sunday we stained chairs and then sealed some of them, in preparation
    for polyurethane. Then we shall have a gloriously shiny, woody set of 8
    chairs and a big butcher block type dining room table. We also did yard
    work - leaves needed to be raked and sidewalks swept. All kinds of
    stuff just getting ready for winter time.

    Today, I went to work and then left early. My bowels and my belly are
    very unhappy and ouchy and rumbly. I decided home was a better place in
    which they could rumble.

    What did you do this weekend?

  • I shopped. And shopped some more. And ate WAY too much bad stuff. And then did a smidge more shopping.

    Gluttony, I am thy slave.

  • What the devil is a smelt fry?

  • I don't remember. LOL... Every time IG sees the ad for those McCain mashed potato Smiles, he says "sMile!" and grins and giggles and says, "Happy!"    It was enough to make me succumb to the advertising and go try 'em.  They're not bad, but I think next time I'd fry them instead of bake them. 

  • smelt reminds me of jimmy. his mom used to warm smelt in the microwave and feed it--along with baked oatmeal treats--to toby (their dog). weird.
