It's Monday...


I declare Monday to be Eye Candy Day. Tuesday might be too...it's been a long weekend.
On the plus side, the boyscout popcorn sale is over and I didn't murder my son's Scout Master though I was sorely tempted...on many occasions.
Had a lovely dinner yesterday at my mom's with my hubby and kids, two of my brothers and their spouses and my neice. Unfortunately, my sister and her partner and my other brother and his fam couldn't make it, but I'm hoping to see them on Thanksgiving as long as Small is well enough for me to leave her for that long.
Speaking of Small, she got her IV catheter taken out yesterday, so now I'm giving her sub-cutaneous fluids at home. She's eating a bit and drinking a little and is more alert than she has been. We still don't know what caused her liver to stop functioning in the first place, but I'm hoping we can figure it out so this doesn't happen again.
Back to eating pomegrantes, cuddling a kitty and the WIP.

Back to eating pomegrantes....seriously? Never eaten one. What does it taste like...and don't say a pomegrante

Yep, just like one, AJ. I love them. Have two on my counter right now. You open them up and there are these gourd-like compartments with ruby colored jewels. Each seed is surrounded by sweet-tart kernels of yumminess. Right. Going to my counter right now to eat one.

I like eye candy Monday! I think it should be a regular feature of the blog.

Glad to hear small is getting better.

Don't eat pomegranates! You'll be trapped in the underworld!

Thanks for the Small update. Glad to hear she's doing better.

LOL, when I was typing "doing" I accidentally typed "dong."

Ah, I wondered when he would show up on your blog. le sigh.
I'm glad kitty is feeling better. It sounds like a long, slow recovery.

Bobby Flay made a light gravy/sauce of them last night on 'Throwdown' and put it over the turkey. He won the showdown against traditional gravy!

And hubby picked up a sparkling apple cider/pomegranite juice for T-day. Can't wait to sample it:)

I love pomegranites. Not only do they taste good but they're fun to eat.

So happy to hear Small is doing better and I hope you figure it out so you don't have to go through this again.

Trapped in the underworld??? Jen, it's too late for that.

One place I lived as a kid in Arizona had a pomegrante tree. Didn't realize how lucky I was until I saw the price of pomegrantes the other day! Wow! Glad kitty is doing better.
