    Hi Bumblebee -
    I’m about an hour or so from you, in north Jersey. We usually head out to the Crossings (yes, hubby actually likes to go there!) in Tannersville around October to do some Christmas shopping. His parents used to have a trailer there. The area is getting quite built up, but it’s still beautiful and a nice ride.

    Hey Joan,
    The crossings aren’t very fsr from me! I have gone there too.
    I have friends in Sussex in N. NJ as well. I visit once in awhile. Are you near there?
    Yes, unfortunately it has gotten very built up here. I moved up here from NJ in ‘88.

    Sussex is not too far from me, about a half hour or so; I’m in West Milford. Small world! People beware - there are kitten-lovers everywhere!

    Sorry I’m late with the latte. They were working on the A/C in our building this morning so they had all employees come in late. They were hoping to have it fixed and cool by 9:30 or so, but nope, still hot. So here are the well iced lattes with double shots of espresso and whipped cream on top! Add cinnamon sprinkles to look like little Mojo’s nose!

    Very cute Susie. :-)

    Big all hands meeting at my temp job here today…layoffs are looming. I spoke with the lady who is helping with my training on the job. She is located in Thousand Oaks down by Los Angeles. She informed me that she got the “voluntary package notice” which is they take that and leave earlier than planned or she refuses it and is put on the layoff list which I guess they decide if she is to stay or go. She has till Sept 9th to make her decision. Tough since she has been with the company five years or so.

    I have my two interviews today…one at 3pm and one at 5pm so I will have an hour to wander around the hotel where they are holding all their interviews. Think positive. Would be cool to be back in high tech industry. Salary sounds decent and they have a bonus plan that where they pay up to 20% of salary in two payments depending on your performance of course. So you would get one payment in July (in time for b-day) and one Dec (in time for Christmas).

    Hi Joan from NJ,
    Are you the one with the medicinal chocolate bag? If so, you could add the chocolate marshmallows to your bag. I can’t wait to try them in hot cocoa this winter! Except they are jet-puff size. I’ll have to tear them in half. I also found some chocolate Twizzlers. Them and the chocolate marshmallows are great. The marshmallows are heavenly and made with real chocolate, so rich!
    You ought to see the recipes on the bag! Chocolate Truffles. Dip marshmallows in melted chocolate, then roll in sprinkles and let set until they harden. YUM!!
    I smelt them before I seen them in the store. My nose lead me to them! lol I’m a choco-holic and a double D(deprived diabetic!). That makes
