Sorry about this, but please just give security your I.D. – we don’t want no trouble.
Okay now that you’re in, Look our Bar Room. :silly: :cheerful: Annie Decorated it and I think she’s done a FABULOUS job!!!!! Thanks Annie!!!!
After, if you are still walking, talking and coherent you might want to stop by our gift shop!!!!
N O W S E R V I N G :
Hey there handsome, excuse me for a minute I’ll be right with ya’ 
MENU LIST:
N E W ON THE M E N U!:
DDD, also served by the bottle
Dirty Dirty Dirty Diana
INTRODUCING The dirty, Dirty, DIRTY DIANA: Some of you addicts have been pretending. And it’s really not necessary. When you come into the bar, have a seat. Your drink has already been prepared. We’ll even serve you the bottle. After all, it’s got your name on it. :yes: :alien:
Warning: Do NOT Mix this drink with Bad Boy Shots. We’ve heard some stories, let me tell ya!
Bad Boy Shot
THE BAD BOY SHOT: Let’s face it, you’re not a good girl and you’ve never been one. You need something strong in ya and this big, black bottle IS IT. One shot is usually enough though we at CCC already know that’s not all you want. Pure Testosterone, raw masculinity infused with some BAD a$$ attitude – all you need to do is open up, throw this one back and wait for it.
:pouty: :sick: Warning (Drink Responsibly)
MJ
- MJ, Too
MJ: We’ve taken this infusion of all natural MJ bodily extracts and perfectly blended it into this refreshingly, naturally sweet and tangy citrus beverage we all ooooooof course, MJ. And we swear, it taste just like JUICE! We can’t really explain what it will do to you — experience it for yourself. You’ll understand after your very first swallow. :whistle:
A Wet Sabah -- Creamy Sabah w/ just a hint of Michael in her.
A Wet Sabah: Creamy Sabah w/ just a hint of Michael in her.
In honor of our favorite couple’s special night we at CCC have created two special drinks:
CHASTITY and UNLEASHED
Ms. CHASTITY
MS. CHASTITY: Coy and uninhibited, sweet and sincere. Remember when you were without fear, honest and whole — do you want to feel like that little girl again; do you want to experience, if only for a moment, the blissfulness of youth? Enjoy, Saniia’s Ms. CHASTITY. Experience the quality that captured Michael’s heart. INNOCENCE IS INTOXICATING.
Unleashed
UNLEASHED: Years of discipline, control and abstinence can only result in one thing: UNLEASHED. We were there. We captured it. We bottled it. Taste the flavor of unbridled passion.
Liquid CobraCrack™
Liquid CobraCrack ™
LIQUID COBRACRACK™ There hasn’t been a chapter uploaded for days! Your internet connection is on the blitz and you can’t find your IPod. Your family and friends have completely disassociated themselves from you because you’ve become a walking zombie. Not one of them understands why you’ve been staring at the blank screen of your computer for days now. But if you don’t get some Michael in you and in you quick, you will just explode!
Due to the number of addicts jonesing outside of CCC we rolled up our sleeves and created this TEMPORARY infusion of Michael in the form of Liquid CobraCrack ™. Stock up now while supplies last. Keep some in the back of your fridge, in the garage, under your desk at work and in your nightstand. Never be without Michael again!!! But Be Warned: Liquid CobraCrack ™ is equally as addictive as the real thing and there is a high likelihood of developing a tolerance very quickly. :sad: You really just can’t replace the real thing!!!!
The cool, refreshing boyish joy of Michael in your glass.
MINTY MIKE: Inspired by Sonia: We were just goofing off, experimenting when we took Michael’s cool smile, his refreshingly sincere good nature, his boyish charm and added just a dash of delight and to our surprise, POOF!!! A Minty Mike appeared! One sip and we couldn’t stop laughing!!! Almost scientifically identical to the chemical compound of JOY, this drink will chase away any and all of your blues and put a peppermint — permanent smile on your face. Enjoy!
Creamy Sabah
CREAMY SABAH: Creamy Chocolate Mike w/ just a hint of Sabah. We searched high and low for a non-x-rated picture that we could put up and this is what we came up with — WHEWWWW!!!!
Pure
Prince Michael’s PURE – Cool, Sweet and light as mist, this magical drink refreshingly satisfies your craving for Prince Michael without the calories or the alcohol. Passion distilled to its purest form, PURE WILL cure your thirst . . . but alas not your desire. Feel free to drink it all day and all night but be warned, Prince Michael always leaves you wanting more.
:wub: L.O.V.E.:When it comes to shots, we don’t offer anything that is more electrifying. We are serving the pure essence of Michael. It IS all that he had ever stood for and nothing more. People who met him basked in its warmth. It was in his words, his actions, his demeanor, his behavior and most of all, his smile. He simply exuded it from his pores. He gave and never asked for anything in return and now we offer the same to you.
If you’re feeling down and you need a pick me up; if you have been hit with a dose of negativity and need something to chase it away, we present to you something that will fill you with only the most natural of highs. It is ten times stronger than any of our other drinks and lasts twice as long: L.O.V.E. Have a shot today and experience the love of Michael Jackson. ***If you experience an immediate sense of peace, joy and contentment, don’t be alarmed that’s the magic of Michael in your system.
Chocolate Covered Mike
CHOCOLATE COVERED MIKE: For those of us with a sweet tooth introducing, Chocolate covered Mike. It’s decadently sweet, addictive, satisfying and unbelievably good for you. It’s just too perfect, OMG!!!!
- Sangre
SANGRE: Other establishments serve Sangria. We serve Sangre. Simply put, this sensually, seductive mixture of perfectly blended fruit, aged wine and just a tinsy weensy drop of Michael’s blood will invade your system and change your personality FOREVER. Undercover cameras captured the woman in the picture above seconds after she took one sip – we are not even sure she had a chance to swallow. Michael NEVER knew what hit him but I hear he was smiling for days afterward. Try it – if you’re woman enough. :devil:
The Force - it has a lot of power!
THE FORCE: This drink is served with a resuscitation kit. I don’t’ think I need to say more!
The Prince Royale
THE PRINCE ROYALE: You’re a lady, and you know truthfully that is the only kind of woman who can capture Michael’s heart. You only drink to relax, not to get drunk like some of the lesser women who frequent Da Smooth Criminal. You’re not interested in cheap sex, you want a life time commitment from the object of your affection. Your drink will be served in our finest crystal, the ones etched in gold, on a silver platter in the VIP section of the bar. The smooth and fruity undertones of this vintage wine will peel away the layers of your resistance until you are as free from your inhibitions as any Creamy Mike lover. The only difference is you’ve done it with style. The price of this drink only reflects your superior self-worth. Go ahead splurge. You’re worth it! And Michael will definitely take notice. He enjoys the finer things in life and so do you.
Thug Passion
THUG PASSION: Okay it’s no Michael but you’re strapped for cash. The flavor doesn’t last as long but it’s just a ‘lil something to keep you going until you can get a REAL drink. A favorite of our financially challenged customers. What you see is what you get and damn, come on girls, you have to admit, it looks good as hell.
THE MABHA * Michael chose the name so excuse the spelling : )
THE MABHA: A smooth and tangy combination of Sabah and Michael with a twist and zesty kick at the end. Don’t nurse it, ’cause it get’s flat. Drink it while it still has that sizzle!
THE GENTLEMAN
THE GENTLEMAN WILL stay in you all night and will also be the first thing you feel when you wake up in the morning. Now let’s be clear: It’s not a hangover. It’s better than a hangover. It’s a HANG ON I’M CUMIN’.
Cool, milky, deceptively sweet.
THE MIKEGASM: Hands down, our most popular drink! Cool, Milky and deceptively sweet, you won’t see where the bang is coming from but IT WILL hit ya!!!!! What’s worst, you’ll keep ordering it anyway. We can’t explain why it explodes in your mouth, we just know we like it!!!! Make sure you have a designated driver if you start throwing back this one. We’re not going to take responsibility and you WON’T have just one.
Mr. M, Home Brewed Right Here at CCC daily!
MR. M: This is our signature beer. We brew it on the premises but if you’re watching yourself, you can get our light version instead.
Mrs. M, For Our Lady Cowgirls who WANNA remember the good times!
MRS. M: The light version of our homemade brew, for our responsible drinkers who also want to make it home in one piece.
Holoma's Soup
HOLOMA’S SOUP: This deceptively potent drink has babies popping up all over the place and since Michael loves da kids, we just can’t take it off the menu. It’s spicy and fruity and served with a strangely cool mist circling up top. Don’t mind the woman in the back hovering over the cauldron. She mixes a big batch of it every morning and though we’ve never asked for a specific list of ingredients, she says that it’s all natural and we trust her!!!
Creamy Mike
Creamy Mike w/ Extra Creme
CREAMY MIKE: (Inspired by Annie) Pure milk chocolate, lightened to perfection with thick, heavy cream and a blend of exotic liqueurs, the taste of this drink will linger in your mouth for hours. You’ll find yourself constantly licking your lips and thinking about it even after you’ve cleaned the last drop out of the glass with your finger. So delicious we naturally prepare two when it’s ordered because everyone gulps them down so quickly. BE WARNED: This drink WILL give you a particularly wicked alcoholic sugar rush. A number of women find it very difficult to keep their legs closed even after one small sip.
The Foreplay
THE FOREPLAY: (Inspired by Martinigirl) Trust me. Looks CAN be deceiving. This seemingly happy go lucky drink will put you flat on your back and keep you there. No matter what you’ve heard YOU ARE NOT READY for this drink. The tangy taste of pineapples smothered in Amaretto and Southern Comfort will knock you right off your feet – literally. Once on your back, you WILL stay there for days . . . and nights. I took this off the menu because I lost a couplah return customers. It’s served with a life size cut out of the Michael pic above. A bunch of people ordered, left and were never seen again.
Golden Boy
THE GOLDEN BOY: (Inspired by Enola) From the moment this Martini came into existence we knew it was special. Inexplicably sliding down your throat like icy cold molten lava, we struggled to formulate an adequate description. Fearing, because the drink was so powerful, that we would face multiple law suits if we put this volatile concoction on our menu we decided in the end it would only be safe to offer ONE drink PER PERSON per LIFE TIME. Ladies, ladies, before you protest, please try and understand: The Martini . . . shakes/stirs itself! (Cue dramatic music) ( O-O )
The Thriller
THE THRILLER — (Inspired by MJQuan) It sizzles, it pops, it dances in your mouth and then it gets down in you and makes you wanna dance, too. One sip, and your hand is up in the air, you’re pursing your lips and saying, “Oooooo”!!! This is our most popular non-alcoholic drink. You can take it all day and never get tired. Enjoy!

Cake for lunch?!
Oh, well it’s your birthday and as we say in Denmark – what you eat today will not make you fat until tomorrow. Speaking of food – I am still feeling the aftershock of the perfect turkey I had Saturday. I am not used to eating that much and my belly feels like an over-inflated football. It can’t be healthy… :lol:
But it was gooooood.
Actually, I think I may have a few ideas for your avatar already. I will try to find a quiet corner tomorrow and give it a shot. So stay tuned!
:w00t: I heard all the commotion in here and decided to take a look and whatdayaknow!!!! It’s Gracies birthday!!!!
I swear I will never understand why I attract so many Scorpios to me!!!!! I know hundreds of them! Happy Birthday !!! :wub: I hope you are doing something extra special for yourself on your very special day.
Now hold the presses! I put up the link to the Vegas pictures . . . doesn’t anyone want to see them? :sad: I’m going make my daughter’s pictures private again soooooooo, betta act now.
Enola, I just put up the card you made for Gracie, very sweet. :wub:
no no Sabine, don’t think we don’t care! i tried the link first thing this morning but it wouldn’t let me access them so i figured i had to have a Facebook account to see them. :sad:
Did i do something extra special for myself? hmmm..not really. I got the “birthday treatment” from my hubby and the kids yesterday (they even baked a cake!) but today i did manage to indulge in that age-old female birthday tradition…going to the mall to get my Sephora freebie!! :lol:
ooooo, sephora, my favorite place!!!!! Well, that’s nice that you pampered yourself at least a little. And your family, awww they’re so cute! Little gems like that, you can’t buy those times. Treasure them :wub:
That link goes to the CobraCrack fan page which isn’t blocked or anything — ooops, yeah, I had it restricted to friends only. Try it again. It should work now :smile:
WTH woman?? That time i got a page of Michael pics which, while lovely, was not what i was looking for!
you know what my favorite thing is about birthdays and mother’s day and all that? The cards they make for me. I have a whole box of them from over the years. This year i got a very nice heartfelt one from my oldest and my little 5 year-old, he has the most adorable way of drawing me, always with these GIANT swirls coming out of my head for my hair. It is just the funniest thing and he AlWAYS draws me that way, it’s his own little archetype of “Mommy” and he’s starting to try to spell on his own too, i just love it! :wub:
Awww, that’s so cute, Gracie! Home made cards are the best!!!! Better than store bought any day. I can just see your swirls :wub:
Okay, I dont know what’s up w/ facebook. I’m going to make my daughter’s page private again so here’s a few of the pics if anyone is interested:
Awww beautiful family Sabine! What are your plans for the holidays?
Hey Gem, aww thanks. you know, I was thinking of going away for the holidays. My family, the Adams Family!!!! It’s always so much drama over the holidays with me trying to orchestrate us getting together and everyone jockeying for position and trying to get everyone else to cater to their schedule; they pretend to have other plans and priorities, like they have no idea that Christmas is for the kids!!!!!! :pinch:
After last years debacle, I decided I don’t want to do it anymore!!! The sad part is w/o me, my 16 neices and nephews don’t have much of a Christmas. Here’s an example, last year was my neices first Christmas, she was 2 — so the first year she could get excited about gifts. Tell me why her mother decided to work?
My other sister, also decided to work, leaving her own daughter home alone. Don’t think for one minute that any dinner or plans were made for her. :sad: I just couldn’t make this stuff up if I tried.
oooooooh a new drink – now boss you know a way to a girls heart…. I just saw drink and here I am.
WOW look at all those gorgeous photos – Sabine girl, you kiddies are beautiful – but no wonder – look at you – you little AVI does not do you justice – you look awesome – red is your colour too.
Now lemme see this Dirty D – see if I like it more than my bad boy!
:devil:
I knew shouting DRIIIIIIIINK at the top of my lungs out side the bar would get SOMEONE to show up here!!! :lol:
thanks honey. Do I look good in red? I’m always wearing black, I swear, but seriously, I think the kids look like their dad!
Now one warning about the drink, you CAN’T mix it. All right do what you want but I had to warn ya! :whistle:
In the last picture your son totally looks like his dad!!!! But something there in his eyes is you, they look like yours! :happy: I mean, what do I know about that but this is what it looks like to me. :lol:
Also, he reminds me of a boy I know whose name is Jerome. He was very sweet when he was little but I haven’t seen him in a long time now… :pouty:
Your daugther turned 16? Oh, I thought she was older. I like how you ladies are wearing your hair!!! How did you do that, what products do you use, what’s the secret here? It looks really nice, your niece’s too!
Oh, the new drink! It looks great…very alluring. :wink:
:w00t: :w00t: THe smilies are back!!!
And the Shakespeare quote is UP THERE, WOOOOW! I somehow understood you meant the picture over at my FB to put it with the others or something…Nice! :w00t: :heart:
You know, I’m sick so I think I shouldn’t try the new drink just yet, it might me knock me off my feet, I’m too weak for this dosis of sexiness right now. :blush: :unsure: :biggrin: But Dirty Diana is the theme of the new BBM chapter??? Hmm…in what way? Oh I know, it’s Sabah’s legs that we will see in the video!!! I mean, we know who it was in real life but still…or not? LOL Can’t wait to find out! :w00t:
*kicks the door in*
Get ourt of the way, ladies!
I heard there’s a new drink on the menu… and I’m going to try it RIGHT NOW!
*looks at the bottle excitedly*
Ooohhhh, a Dirty Diana, huh? Will it make me want to have a little bubble bath fun in a huge martini glass?
Or maybe make me so small, I can fit into one of those naughty Golden Boys?
Either way, down the hatch!
:devil:
Sooo, how is it? Is everyone lovin’ this new drink. You know, I’m loving the picture — I’m so happy with it! Took me another sleepless night but I think it came out perfect. One of my favorites :wub:
I’m going to drink DDD’s all day today . It loosens my inhibitions and I’m in a bad mood :pinch:
Cherry, DDDs are only for the strong, hardy and healthy, so I don’t recommend it if you’re still feeling under the weather. Yes, that’s the theme for the new chapter!!!
Of course I can’t tell you any more than that! You’ll have to wait for it!!! :cheerful:
Oh, my son has the shape of my eyes, that’s what you’re seeing I think, though he doesn’t have the color. He also has my mouth. My daughter has her dad’s eyes and mouth — it’s weird, because they look like twins. Though when their Dad and I were together, people would say we looked alike. :lol: Go figure.
Hmm, the hair — oh, boy, I was the official hairdresser for the whole trip. Even the night before we got on the plane, you should have SEEN how my sister sent my niece — she was supposed to get her hair done, but nope, I ended up washing it that night and putting her under the dryer.
So that’s basically what I did. I put my daughter under the dryer and then blew the hair out — both of them, after that I just used a curling iron to give it some curl, but not too much or too often because too much heat damages the hair. As for product, I don’t like a lot of product ’cause it makes the hair heavy. Nothing other than a moisturizing shampoo, a deep conditioner, also under the dryer, and then after I style it, there’s somethign called Finsihing gloss, it keeps the hair smooth and from getting frizzy. Simple!
I actually like doing hair. If you were here in New York, I’d do your hair for you, it would be fun. I just don’t like doing my own hair!!!!!
Enola, I read that the turkey was delish — can you get outta that Golden boy glass and listen to me! :lol:
Are you going to share the recipe with the rest of us folks, being that Thanks giving is two days away!!!!! :w00t: I’m not cooking mind you, but maybe someone else might wanna make it!
*stops chasing little Michael around and looks over the edge of the glass*
You want the recipe in an e-mail or posted here?
*slips back into the glass with a silly smile on her lips*
Hey Mikey, I’m back!
Enola, post it right here, that way everyone or anyone can use it!!!! I might give it to my kid’s dad. He is making the turkey this year. This year I just eat!!!!
Um, you read the warning about mixing that drink right?
Just so you know, wer’e not responsible!!!! :ermm:
:whistle: :tongue:
Here it is:
RUBY’S PERFECT TURKEY (for 10-15 lb. turkey)
Part 1 the Brine:
*1 gallon water
*1 cup sugar
*1 cup coarse Kosher salt
*1 bunch fresh sage
*1 bunch fresh thyme
*3 tablespoons cracked black pepper
2-3 days before roasting, place above ingredients in large stock pot. Bring to a boil and simmer for 10 min.
STRAIN…my stepmom uses a kitchen towel fastened over top of another stock pot with a rubber band…i only have 1 big pot so i set a colander in roasting pan, line the colander with a kitchen towel or cheesecloth and pour the brine through it.
CHILL brine.
Put turkey in brine, cover and refrigerate…turn every 6 hours or so, let soak 2 or 3 days
Part 2 the Stock:
*3 cups cold water
*1 medium onion sliced
*6-8 stalks celery, cut in half
*1 large carrot sliced
*1 tablespoon garlic, fresh or jarred
*4 cups chicken broth
*coarse salt and pepper to taste
Put all ingredients in large stock pot, bring to a boil then simmer until veggies are tender.
STRAIN through towel or cheesecloth.
Chill in refrigerator.
OPTIONAL—add turkey neck, giblets, heart to pot, cook until meat comes off bones, pick off the meat and add to stock
Part 3 Herb Butter
*8 tablespoons softened unsalted butter
*1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
*1 tablespoon lemon juice
*1 tablespoon chopped shallots or onion
*1 tablespoon chopped garlic
*1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
*1 tablespoon chopped chives
*1 tablespoon fresh chopped thyme
*1 tablespoon fresh chopped sage
*1 tablespoon fresh chopped tarragon
Mix all ingredients in food processor and blend. you can make this a day or two ahead, if you do, leave out at room temperature to soften before it’s time to roast turkey.
Part 4 Roast the Turkey
About 5 hours before you want to eat….heat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit
Remove turkey from brine and rinse under cold water. Dry turkey with towel and put in roasting pan
Slide a small spatula between the skin and the breast meat…put 1/2 of the herb butter under the skin and the other 1/2 all over outside of turkey.
Put 1/2 of stock in roast pan with the turkey, check every hour to make sure turkey is browning, add more stock and baste as needed.
Last 1 1/2 hrs….uncover turkey, turn heat down to 325 to brown. When done, let stand 20-30 minutes before removing meat from bone.
hey ladies! getting ready to head over the river and through the woods to grandmother’s house for Thanksgiving, i have so much to do that at this point i will be lucky to get any sleep but i NEED to try a DDDiana…
…mmmm….i feel so …so…..dirty…. :blush: :devil:
:sad: no time for a dip in the Golden Boy glass though..
and what the hell, give me a bottle for the road.
Sabine the pic is AWESOME!
And i finally get to see your Vegas pics too! you all look so FABULOUS! the kids do look a lot like their dad but i see you in them too. you are ALL beautiful :heart:
you DO look good in red…my husband always tells me i look good in red too but i never wear it, i have ONE red shirt i wear occasionally for him, i think i feel like it draws so much attention, you know? i’m much more comfortable in black or blue.
i totally relate to the holiday/family struggle. Every year i stress over it and i say ‘next year, i’m not doing this, we are just going to have Christmas with our friends” but i end up doing the same thing year after year dragging my kids all over creation because no one can be bothered to come visit us. UGH, it gives me hives just thinking about it again. Just going for 2 days this week is stressing me out….
….. :wink: maybe i’ll pack a few bottles of Sangre along with that Dirty Diana…
OH my goodness, Gracie!!! Wait don go! I wanted to give you a big virtual hug and tell you happy thanksgiving.
Girl you family sounds just like my family!!!! They all have this huge sense of entitlement, like someone should cater to them. Last year I asked over and over again what the plans were for christmas and no one had bothered to make any. I was told, get this, that my sisters were working and that most of the kids were just going to gather at my 22 year old neices apartment and “hang out”.
Okay, I don’t mind telling you, that young lady is, IMO, a hoarder and her apartment — well you can imagine. Now that’s her business and I don’t tell people how to live their lives, but I certainly was not going to cram into her one bedroom apartment with all of her junk and stuff when I have a huge house that is decorated for Christmas. I invited everyone to my house and they made a million excuses as to why they couldn’t come.
I was very hurt but I’ve excepted that’s how they are — in the end I said, excuse my french, f it but we ended up compromising. They came over Christmas eve and we opened our gifts on Christmas eve.
My sister, you’re going to love this, gave my kids a $25 gift certificate to share. I think I might have said. I was and still am disgusted. Especially since she brags about how much money she’s making as a nurse all the time.
Annnnnnnny way, I had forgotten all about that mess. i need another DDD!!!!!
Defintely taking some of these with me if I end up at any family member’s house this year!
Oh, Gracie, I forgot to say, doesn’t that Dirty Diana pic look good!?!?!?! :wub:
And also, I always tell my daughter she looks like her dad in drag! :lol: :wub: But in some pictures my daughter totally looks like me — it’s weird. Oh yeah, I like black ’cause it matches with everything!!!! :lol:
Enola, mmmmmmm, that turkey sounds delish! I’ll pass this recipe on to Kit! :lol:
hey, hey, hey!
:alien: ugh…i need a pick me up..i’ve been workin workin workin day and night and still not ready to go.
i decided i needed a drink and i’m working on our road trip playlist. I just downloaded Cee Lo Green “F YOU” the clean version of course, so i’m listening to it over and over. what a great song! you know, some songs need to grow on you but sometimes you hear the first time for like ten seconds and you go and turn it up and that’s one of ’em!
OMG, your poor girl looking like her dad in drag! :lol:
my daughter looks just like her daddy, i swear we don’t even look related so i’ll admit i worry about that too. I mean, he’s cute and all but NOT pretty. But then again, i look a lot like my dad and i turned out ok. :lol:
oh yeah, wait till you see the avi Enola made me!! she made me so cute! :happy:
so yeah, the fam….just ugh. The problem with mine is there are too many branches cuz both my parents are remarried so i have lots of steps and there are certain groups who are always not speaking to some other groups and it makes things complicated because we have to go to four different places to see everyone…and they all live less than ten minutes apart!!
your nieces and nephews are lucky to have you to teach them about the real meaning of Christmas. It’s so sad that your sisters can’t find that joy in just being together .
your sister’s gift…OMG that’s what we call “Julius cheap”!! :lol: No kidding, my sister in law who, they have the McMansion, the Volvo, the whole nine yards, you know? she buys my kids summer clothing when everything goes on clearance and gives it to them for Christmas! SMH…some people just don’t get it, do they?
you know, i slaved over basting and roasting that yummy turkey a few weeks ago when i was sick and couldn’t smell or taste a damn thing ….so not fair. It does earn it’s name though. :happy:
Well, my lovely ladies…just one extra bottle of DDD and i’m off
so long, farewell, auf wiedersehn, good night
i hate to go and leave this pretty sight.
:kissing: :heart:
:wassat: whoops! almost forgot….
HAPPY THANKSGIVING !!!!
….u know how in school they always have th elittle kids write what they are thankful for?? mine brought a paper home today it said…i am thankful for carrot seeds. :lol:
cuz he likes to plant them in the garden and grow carrots of course but it made me laugh.
I suppose you’re all packed and ready to go, huh, I hope you got that case of DDD I sent you :wub:
Your kids are too cute, carrot seeds, yes, it’s the little things we need to be thankful for. My daughter, yeah she looks like her daddy in drag but somehow she works it and still looks cute :lol:
Your family, ten minutes away from each other! :w00t:
But I feel you on the this ones not talkin’ to that one. I had to learn and am still learning to stay outta that family drama. Let them figure out their own way or spend the holidays alone gosh darn it. Still I feel for the kids who end up suffering :sad:
My sister is beyond selfish, just never thinks of anyone but herself really. Now get this, if I don’t get them gifts and stuff, they have a holy fit! Which I’ve learne to ignore along with the other drama. :whistle:
Here’s to a happy healthy thanks giving Gracie! bottoms up!
It came out really cool! But you should get more sleep!!! :pinch: : kissing:
Aaaw, are you still?
Really?? :wassat: Naaaaw. But yeah, your kids look quite alike! Me and my sister, too but only at first glance. I’s true though, some couples DO look quite a like, same thing with some dog owners and their dogs… :lol:
Wow, you really are a busy aunt! I read the family celebratsions conversation between you and Gracie and it seems like if they didn’t have you things would be pretty dull. Yeah, it would be fun to have you do my hair. I definitely want to go to New York one day so who knows…. :lol: It’s true, it’s much more fun having your hair done by other people than doing it yourself. But the funny thing is I can’t do otheres people’s hair when it’s “normal” you know, straight and thin because I’m totally not used to that. :lol So I’m already happy if I manage to get my little cousin’s hair into a ponytail. :lol: :blush:
You mean just now, for Thanksgiving, or in general? I think I remember you once saying that you had a love affair with food. :happy:
I always intend to go to sleep, Cherry, but it never works out that way for me! But thanks for the well wishes.
I think people start to look like each other and their pets because after you spend a lot of time w/ someone or an animal, you pick up their mannerisms!!!
Now did I read you correctly, or did you say that “straight, thin” hair is normal?
girl, normal according to who? :lol: :happy:
I meant I’m not cooking for Thanksgiving. I love to cook, but I have to be in the mood to do a big dinner, and my family doesn’t deserve that from me — not my immediate family, I’m talking about my sisters, brothers, they are really not the type of person you should go all out for.
Officially, I want to wish everyone a healthy and happy Thanksgiving. I’m very thankful that I’m able to talk to so many people from different walks of life, to share and provide a bit of escapism. Thanks for being part of the CCC family. :smile:
Happy Turkey to all the American addicts….
and more importantly happy Black Friday!
Happy Thanksgiving to all my great American friends!
I L.O.V.E. you all.
:heart:
(And the rest of my fellow addicts too – just in case someone wants to complain!)
:biggrin:
Happy Turkey Day everyone!!!
I hope everyone has a nice place to go to today.
I am thankful for many things…
That my body is healing.
My family who are so far away and who I wish I was with now.
And my friends who love and take care of me like family.
And this place for all the L.O.V.E.!!!
And for Michael. :wub:
All the thanksgiving wishes were very sweet! Hope everyone enjoyed the day! You know, I think the best way to celebrate Black Friday is to shop on line :lol: :tongue:
But I think I’m only saying that ’cause I’m so tired today. Anyone else feeling like that?
Not that I stuffed my face yesterday or anything. I could never do that. I’m not a good investment for an all you can eat date. I can only eat just a little at a time, unless I stay there all day.
But thank god, the food i had was good. Mmmmmm :smile: :lol: :tongue:
:biggrin: hey everybody! hope you all had a happy Thanksgiving!!
I am back home, stuffed like a turkey myself….blah…i want to take a nap!
My family was mostly on their best behavior and we had a lot of fun actually, especially the kids, but there’s no place like home so i’m happy to be back.
..Black Friday??!?! HATE it!! First of all, i don’t like shopping to begin with, and i also hate crowds so i do almost all of my shopping online. i DO like to spend a day downtown where all the cool little shops are, i just can’t stand the mall and. I have that Charlie Brown attitude when it comes to Christmas…”Ugh! Materialism!! “
OLA ladies…. I think I might lurk a little this weekend
hope all is well…
I know it is noon somewhere so give me a DDDD
OY when I say that – I feel like I am asking for a bra in a cup… no PUN intended
gimme a bad boy coz I love him so
Oooooo, this is tooo cute! :wub:
I just loooooove a bargain.
I bought an item in Sears, wasn’t the greatest price but not bad. i decided to do some comparative shopping on line after going to Target and being told that all of their stock was sold out. WTF, why advertise when you don’t have the item and don’t know when you’ll have it in. Ne way, they had a special on line sale but didn’t have free shipping — it said free shipping on orders over $50, but it didn’t take the shipping price off.
So off I went looking for an electronic coupon. Found one and it took off $5 – nope, not good enough! Found another that said it would work for free shipping but it only took off $7 — read through the comments and they confirmed that Target’s advertising of free shipping for purchases over $50 is BOGUST, that it only works on select items. A few of them vowed to take their Christmas shopping to Walmart.
So I followed! I found my item at Walmart for $2.00 less than Target was selling it, with FREE SHIPPING either to the store or my home! Wow! :w00t:
Plus, there was something about it being an energy efficient item, so no sales tax before Nov. 30th — I’m keeping my fingers crossed!!!!!! Cost saved if I don’t pay tax, $100!
Yay!!!!! :smile: :silly: :cheerful:
well that calls for free round of drinks…
hello bad boy come to mama
hey i miss you guys. i snuck on the staff computer to read my bbm while they were gone. right now i told them i want to do an “application” i dont want to get caught. i loved everything sabine. it makes me think about myself as an individual… i havent read ttwc yet… im being a bad girl…… now they know they cant keep me from my ccc….. i love you all…. ill sneak with ya later… :heart: :ninja:
Hey Mj, addicts sneaking for their fix, that’s music to my ears!!!!! I’m glad you enjoyed it and also that it made you think! :smile:
How’s your little girl. I hope everything is looking up for you :heart:
for every leaked song I hear I don’t know if it makes sad or happy – I love the two versions of Blue Gangsta I have heard… but makes me realize there is a limited supply of this man left…
oh goodness
gimme a DDDDi with a bad boy on top.
Here ya go, Mgirl!
We have an ambulance on stand by for after you drink that!
:whistle: You know, I personally need not ever hear another leaked song. I’m perfectly content with all the great music Michael left us. I can listen to Can’t Help it over and over and over again and never get tired of it or a bunch of other songs, they are just that good!
Now I didn’t know there were two versions of Blue Gangsta. :w00t:
My favorite leaked song so far is Do You know Where Your Children Are –thats to me, vintage Michael! And I think he really believed in the lyrics, he loved kids so much :kissing:
:tongue: I should say my favorite song this week, ’cause they always change depending on my mood!
Hey ladies!
I need something HOT! It’s freezing cold over here.
Let’s see…. Ah, yes of course an Unleashed!
Oh, and I loved the cat! I cannot believe it lets the owner wrap it up like that!
Zoobie would eat me if I tried.
:biggrin:
yeah, I was just telling another fan the same thing… I think we as fans are pretty happy with everything he put out while he was here – I am sure only 10% (if that) are gonna be worth releasing – we all know that Michael was the ultimate perfectionist – everything will be subpar to what he would have wanted – coz there is not ways for us to know what he really wanted..
Oh I have heard like a 3 or 4 versions – one with Pras – which was pretty cool – just other people adlibbing or rapping over it – I like the one with just him.’
But as I was saying to Enola – the more I listen to it today – the more I miss him.
I think I have been overly emotional lately as I just finally (yes finally) starting looking a the pictures I took when I went to FL in August – I want to post something about – but it has been harder than I thought… strange for me I guess – since I don’t dwell on those things..
I love do you know where you children are… and I rather like blue gansta – I gotta agree with you though – I could listen to old Michael and be just happy to grove to anything from Off the Wall or Shake Your Body – ohhhhhh I so love that song – if I had a choice of constant new stuff or 1 or 2 old songs – my choice would be easy.
It is cold already in Denmark E? You really should have a triple D with a Bad Boy… I think I might have another – but I am seeing double from the last one.
Speaking of a bad boy… I wonder where our man is hiding. : ) I should check with the landlord!
Is it cold in Denmark already? Sheesh…
We just had the coldest November 30 in more than hundred years.
This is what it looks like outside:
Now, give me another Unleashed and a Golden Boy too.
Ooooh, that’s very pretty Enola! Enola!!! ENOLA! Enola has been passed out on the floor for like six hours and no one has picked her up! Terrible!
*Slapping Enola’s face lightly.*
:ermm: Ah well, *putting a DDD near her for when she wakes up*
Good news!!! :w00t: Now for me personally but, I don’t know if anyone bothered to look, but a while ago I put up the project that this director was trying to fund — to make a movie out of a book he’s always loved called The Price by Neil Gaimon, welll, he was down $20,000 with just 36 hours to go — I really didn’t think he’d do it, but people came through, and he made it just over his $150 k mark with hours to go.
I love it when people work together to make something beautiful happen!!!! I’m happy that I decided to fund it and that I’m going to be a part of this project, if only as a sponsor.
Who knows, maybe someone will fund a project of mine one day!!!! :wub:
So remixes with some rapping on it, that’s cool. I don’t really care for Pras but I’d have to hear it. I expect everyone to be trying to make as much money as they can off of Michael- that’s the nature of human beings and the business unfortunately. Those who can do, and those who can’t use others to do it for them.
Aw, thanks Sabine!
What a nice way to wake up – I mean with a bottle of DDD waiting right next to me!
*gulps down her DDD – and smiles happily*
NOW, I’m ready to go to work!!
Have a wonderful day, ladies!
Hey ladies,
I found something this morning, which has been keeping me warm and happy in the blizzard.
Now, since I am a good girl, I have to share it with you.
Check out this view:
:biggrin: hi everyone! how do you like the new “ME” ?!?!?! thanks Enola!
Well, I DID have a whole long list of things i needed to do today but i just threw that sucker away and decided to spend the day here sipping Creamy Mikes and gazing at the pic that Enola posted…Thanks again!!
It looks lovely but c-c-c-c-cold in Denmark…we are having crazy weather…yesterday morning it was 65 degrees and by evening it was 40!! Thanksgiving day we had snow but it didn’t last. My kids just got new boots so you know what that means…it probably won’t snow all winter!! :lol:
MGirl, if you’re out there (((big hug))) from me…
i feel like all you girls too…it’s interesting to hear new Michael music but I don’t think i will ever love any of it as much as the old stuff. Maybe i am just overly sentimental, but a part of me resists the new music, i’m just not emotionally attached to it like i am to our old favorites.
Sabine, my bargain hunting friend…i just got home from Kmart, let me tell you, 8AM on a Thursday at Kmart is my kind of shopping…no lines, no crowds and I got Epic Mickey and got a $30 coupon on my receipt we can use for another game! WOW!! :w00t:
I totally feel you on the shipping issues…i will hunt high and low for something if i have to just to get free shipping! i hate to pay it!
Enjoy your day ladies! :tongue:
here’s full size me so you can appreciate E’s talent…
Well, hello there Gracie!
Congratulations on the new “you”.
Girl, you look goooood! LOL!
:w00t:
:lol: Why thank you Ms.E…girl, I spent HOURS on my hair (well, actually you did :wink: )
and you’re lookin fine yourself! We make an interesting pair i think, you the blonde sophisticate, me the wild brunette.
*pouring shots of L.O.V.E.*
…to all the lovely ladies everywhere…and FREE shipping!! Cheers!!
