Jcat, I'd love that... and you could join us as head baker (neither WWM, nor I are too good in that department!)....... good luck catching your crew!.... I've got to go get dressed and then run errands.... will catch everyone in the Cafe!..... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/6#post-390814 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:21:12 +0000 jcat 390814@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>AV, I think you and WWM and MS should get together and give cooking classes to the rest of us, lol...</p> <p>Nighty-night, MS, I just had to go feed the furry monsters, now they have galloped outside (crazy cats!) and I will soon be off to bed too... it will be minus one (celsius) here overnight. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/6#post-390813 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:17:17 +0000 AV 390813@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>...you can use any combo of root veggies you like!.... the carrots and butternut squash give it a sweet taste, and the turnips and parsnips counter balance with a more bitter one, but the combo is yummmy..... you could throw a sweet potatoe in there, or rutabegger, anything you like really! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/6#post-390811 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:15:10 +0000 Moonshadow_NZ 390811@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>AV, it's midnight here and you have me drooling!

I've never heard the term "cack handed", but I'm assuming it means "spastic" when trying to paint toenails... I too suffer that malady....LOL </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390809 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:13:21 +0000 Moonshadow_NZ 390809@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>MCW, how odd.

Spooky similarity. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390807 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:12:26 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 390807@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Cheers CM! :o) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390806 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:11:49 +0000 AV 390806@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>.....oh I see, it's a small pumpkin!..... and very tasty I bet!......</p> <p>I love all root vegetables, many times I make a root vegetable mash as a side dish instead of potatoes or rice... I make a nice stock with ham hoc, chicken bullion, thyme, garlic &#38; onion, which I boil down for about an hour... then I add carrots, parsnips, turnips, and butternut squash... boil until they're tender, then mash them with butter and a little milk until they are the consistency of mashed potatoes!.... yummy replacement..... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390805 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:11:38 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 390805@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Good night MS, sleep well.</p> <p>Jcat - not quite, but not far off! And it was just to keep my head above water for the day to day stuff. Now at least I hope to be able to get back to the project work I was ploughing through, so will still be doing some work from home, but not for survival purposes!</p> <p>Right, time to hit the road, taking Mum for an eyetest and an ears examination before bringing her back to see Bones, and now need to take in the vets on the way too. Back later with an update. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390804 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:09:55 +0000 cricketsmama 390804@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Night MS!!</p> <p>MCW, good to pamper yourself, you deserve it!! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390803 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:09:05 +0000 Moonshadow_NZ 390803@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I'm starting to seize up with the cold here so it's time I headed off to my hot water bottle and cosy bed.<br /> I did my fingernails tonight MCW, I'm cackhanded too but at least it made me feel a wee bit better.<br /> Goodnight all, see you tomorrow. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390802 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:08:07 +0000 jcat 390802@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Yay, MCW, you have been working way too hard lately, it's been 60-hour weeks, hasn't it? Now toenails, that's another thing I haven't painted since school... ;-) How glam! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390801 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:07:11 +0000 Moonshadow_NZ 390801@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>AV, <a href="http://www.yates.co.nz/products/seeds/vegetables/pumpkin-buttercup/" rel="nofollow">http://www.yates.co.nz/products/seeds/vegetables/pumpkin-buttercup/</a> </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390800 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:04:36 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 390800@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Work is just beginning to ease up a fraction too, thank goodness. Today is actually a proper day off, first time in months I haven't brought some work home with me. I treated myself this morning to celebrate, my toenails are now a lovely coral shade! (can't do 'em myself, way too cack handed!!) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390798 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:02:53 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 390798@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>MCW, so sorry to hear that, its hard when they start to go downhill :( </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390797 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:02:35 +0000 AV 390797@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>(((Bones)))......</p> <p>.... my best friend in 1st grade always chewed the end of her braids.... her hair was real long, so her mom would braid it everyday to keep it neat.... funny how you remember things like that!.....</p> <p>MS, I'm not sure what buttercup squash is, the butter nut kind here is similar to pumpkin in texture, so I figure it would work well in that stew..... right now, however, it's so hot that I can't think of making stew..... my thoughts turn more to boiled shrimp on ice with a cool fruit salad......gathers "frazzeled" hair in hands and puts it in a pony tail..... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390796 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:01:29 +0000 jcat 390796@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Good news from the doc, MCW, I'm all in favour of eliminating things to worry about... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390795 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 05:01:17 +0000 cricketsmama 390795@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Yea!! That is good news MCW. :) We need a bit of it around here.<br /> I hope all goes smoothly today. I know how hard this is for you and dealing with Mum as well. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390794 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 04:59:20 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 390794@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi Azdeb, it's on the Mitzi thread. He's deteriorated quite abit in the last 48 hours, think it could be close to that time... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390792 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 04:58:23 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 390792@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi CM - I'm not too bad thanks, Bones issues aside. I had some good news at the doctors this morning, my blood tests show perfectly normal hormone levels, so we can deduce the hot flushes I've been experiencing are due to the nerve pain in my neck (makes sense, as they've lessened since I've been on the neural pain blockers). So one less thing to worry about! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390791 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 04:57:04 +0000 cricketsmama 390791@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Oh MCW..I am so sorry about Bones. How sad. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390790 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 04:57:03 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 390790@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>MCW, ok what did I miss about Bones? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390789 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 04:56:35 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 390789@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Thanks Jcat (I thanked you on the other thread too :o) ). Think I'll try and stop in at the vets on the way to Mum's, get his take on it. Mum values his opinion above all others, it was his advice that swayed her to let Bones move in with us when she was so ill a couple of years ago. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390788 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 04:56:20 +0000 AZDEBRA 5/27 & crew 390788@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>MORNING AV &#38; MCW :)</p> <p>Ewwww never did the hair chewing thing, maybe I just didn't think of it...who knows </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/17635/page/5#post-390786 Wed, 03 Jun 2009 04:54:55 +0000 cricketsmama 390786@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi MCW.
