from the mouths of babes

He'd hate it if he knew I was calling him a baby!
Sproing is gloomy tonight. Superman has gone to Macon, GA to visit his sister for the weekend. He and Twitch left about an hour ago. I just picked up the kidlets from the day care, and Daddy is gone. :( So he's moping. It's one of his many talents.

He came in here to whine at me, and I realize he needs some supper, but I have no inspiration in that regard. So I asked him if there was anything specific he wanted me to fix for supper. I just got one of his faves, Mac&Cheese, last night at the store. (Yuck!) He brought the box to me and said "I wish we were rich so we could go to China."

Readjust ears to interpret Sproingese... He wants to go to a Chinese restaurant for supper tonight. Ah, I see. No. How 'bout some nice Italian pasta a la fromaggio? Maybe a little Mexican chili bean on the side?

Mac and cheese can work with some Boars Head ham in it!

Poor thing alone with a youngin' this weekend, Take him to see the lights at James Island County Park - slip him some eggnog with Captain Morgans in it.

BTW: What happened to Cooper? and Diamond is gone for the holidays too - I guess its us! Maybe I'll blog tomorrow.

LOL! Uncle Z, I *just* took my last swig of eggnog with Captain Morgan in it!!!
Darlin', I'm in the upstate, far far away from James Island County Park. And not close enough to a real city for any real entertainment. I suppose I could take them out to Lake Greenwood State Park where we could watch the rain falling on the lake. Or see how many fish have been poisoned by the toxicity in the water. Fun times, man!
Dunno about Cooper. Strange. And I've been jumping to Diamond's blog today just to see if by some chance there's something new and interesting. Nada.
I mixed in some Bush's chili beans with the mac'n'cheese. I gave them each a big bowl before I did, though, because they like it better just pasta and plastic cheese-like glop. I spread my pasta, cheesishness, and beans over some tortilla chips, dabbed some salsa on that, shredded some sharp white cheddar over the whole thing, and heated it in a 350 degree oven for about 5 minutes. It was a nasty excuse for nachos, but I ate it anyway. Better than just plain mac'n'cheese.

**WARNING**
NEVER try either of the aforementioned recipes. They are absolutely disgusting.
