Rice Family

So, I can't wait for the Twinners - they're lame-o!  At least Megan is back.  Gotta love her.  Stinkin' organic fruit her children expect! Pah.  My kids don't know what organic is .  No big surprise there, I know :)  Ok.  Above this post is a widget that is a wish list - for those of you who need ideas as to what to get my kids, there it is. I want a pottery wheel.   Just sayin'.  Megan informed me "Yeah right.  Ok."  So ,maybe not this year, I don't have anywhere to put it now in any case.  I would like clothes, shoes, and jewelry.  I need some cute stuff.  A nice pair of jeans.  Some dresses for work (skirts are good too).  And might I remind you, I have both Christmas and Birthday coming up - combo gifts work just peachy :) ok, I'm done begging for stuff - unless you need a J list also.  I'll have to work on that. We are going to Kansas for Thanksgiving, plus a wedding for my cousin Jenna.  And we get to see the Toney's!  And of

Um, what is going on sisters??  I need to know what is going on, yet none of you are friggin bloggin!  Where are your priorities? I suppose I could call, but what would everyone else do?  And if  your answer is :  they could call too,  think about how little you would get done because everyone was calling ALL the time and all you could ever get done was re-telling your stories to all those callers.....just think about it. Let me know what you decide. Oh, and just for good measure, I am not going to blog again until all of you do...and I would like to mention, I have some awesome stories that need to be told, so get your blog on.

We were grocery shopping the other day, and M went with me to pick out some hamburger.  Next to the hamburger there are the more interesting edible parts of the cow.  I decided to show M the cow tongue...her expected response - "Ewww.  Gross."  Just after J came back with E we showed them as well and as we were standing off to the the side, M all the while saying  "ewww...gross", a guy came up behind us and selected a cow tongue, so I showed M:  "See, he likes cow tongues.  I told you some people like to eat them."  She screwed up her face and looked at the guy with a 'are you crazy?' smile.  I decided it was a learning oportunity and asked him how he cooks/eats it.  He was very kind and stopped and explained it all to us and emphasized that it was very good. M is still unconvinced, but J thinks we should try it.
