Misunderstood Monday - Biscuits?

When it comes to shopping for groceries and other stuff, we always go together as it is more fun doing it together.  But every now and again, Jeff needs certain items at Home Depot or Rona but he still ask if I would like to go with him.  There are times when I have nothing specific that I'm working on or finishing, I don't mind going and I do it more for the exercise, I walk around aisle by aisle until Jeff is ready to cash out.  One day, he said that he needs to go to Home Depot to buy some biscuits.  I was not really paying attention since I was concentrating on my painting, so I said, go ahead.  After a few minutes, I realized what he had said, and I thought it was odd that he is going to HD and get some biscuits.  I sort of shook my head and continued painting.  Later on, Jeff was back and I forgot to ask him what he got at HD.  A week later he was showing me some of the prep work he is doing for the shutters for our family room.  Guess what I saw?

These are inserts for in between the pieces of wood that he is putting together.

Fluffy Friday - Totally different kind of fluffiness

After coming home from our trip of Maui, Jeff and I decided to check out the comedy central station and at that moment there was a comedian wearing a Hawaiian shirt.  Since it was perfect timing, it just started and we just came back from Hawaii, we thought of checking this guy out.  It was an hour of awesome laughter and a great entertainer.  The most interesting part of him was that he was comfortable with his nickname "Fluffy".  His real name is Gabriel Iglesias.  Our favorite topic of his routine is when he describe his Saudi Arabia tour when the Prince wanted him to perform in their country.  Since then I have been checking the same station for other specials and so far we have watched a couple of them.  The one from Hawaii and the one from Texas.  He is currently on tour and it would be great to see him perform live. If this is the first time you've heard about him, check out some of his video online.

 

On another type of fluffy, every time I hear this word, I cannot stop but think of the little girl on Despicable Me.  Remember that part when she got the unicorn, the one that was so fluffy.

Mischief Monday - Our new 10 commandments

During the weekend I was listening to a radio station (through the internet) that featured only songs from the 50's and 60's.  One song was titled the ten commandments of love.  Jeff and I was having breakfast so we made our very own ten.  

1. Thou shall not HIT.
2. Thou shall not CHEAT.
3. Thou shall not LEAVE unless #1 or 2 has been violated.
4. Thou shall not be MEAN with INTENT.
5. Thou shall not NAG or WHINE. 
6. Thou shall not COMPLAIN.
7. Thou shall not SCREAM or throw a HISSY FIT.
8. Thou shall not GO TO BED ANGRY.
9. Thou shall not let one be LONELY.
10. Thou shall not forget to TAKE CARE of each other in their golden age.   

Now you can make your own Ten Commandments with your better half and see what you come up with.

 

Funny Friday - Expressions and more

What happens when I mix two expressions or sayings into one?  Jeff starts laughing and brings tears to his eyes.  Most of the times I don't even know that I am mixing it up and that makes it even funnier.  Some of them I have not even heard of but I thought of just sharing them.

• don't use your mouth, use your eyes (when Jeff is looking for something around the house that he cannot find)
• hemmed and hod ( I actually said something like hen and hog)
• those who can, do - those who can't, teach  
• it's better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt
• it looks like a cab going down the street with both doors open ( referring to someone with big ears that stick out)
• aahhh - i hit my funny elbow ( instead of saying funny bone)
• it's better to have and not need, than need and not have ( my brother Percy's greatest advice)

The past 3 days I have been going in to work with Jeff so I can drop him off (we still have one car).  Tennis at 830 to 1030 am, then I would try to figure out where I would have my lunch.  Tuesday it was Sushi at the Juniper Cafeteria, Wednesday was Denver Omelet at the Sunken Garden cafe and Thursday was Clam Chowder Caesar Salad and Philly Steak Panini Pezzalas Villa Napoli.  After lunch I golf with my senior buddies and after 9 holes, I do a little window shopping.  The weather has been so awesome, blue skies and very warm temperature.  With that said, there was no sewing and house chores done.

Before I forget, I would like to send my Congratulations to William and Kate on their Wedding Day.  Is it true that they will be spending their honeymoon in CANADA?
