How fun a sock hop. However I would agree that you need time away :)<br /> I have never had butternut squash. Is it good and how in the heck do you cook it? </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/3#post-439256 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 17:47:51 +0000 SoxsMom 439256@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Congratulations MS!!! That is wonderful news! I hope you two get to enjoy a terrific day together. Is it warming up a bit for you? I went to the farmers market and thought of you today. I picked up some beautiful melons and squash. Tomorrow I will roast a butternut squash--I am almost drooling. I have to go and chaperone the sock hop at the school. Hopefully the students will behave! I don't like events like this on the weekend. I know it is hard to believe but it helps when I actually have time away from them! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/3#post-439242 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 17:06:59 +0000 Moonshadow_NZ 439242@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Sneaking a peek into the cafe, no one here. I can smell the coffee though and will help myself to a cup. Yay, no more night shift for Mr MS. Now we can get back to our normal lives. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/3#post-439228 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 16:21:14 +0000 AV 439228@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Yes, MC, Cuddles got "her girl" fix!..... she purred louder than a motor boat!.....boths she and Abbs have been fed, watered, pooped, and are sleeping of their trip!......</p> <p>...

I am big enough and I don't need to feel bigger by negative sizes :) </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/3#post-439206 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:39:04 +0000 mollycat71 439206@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>I agree with you on that one Vicki! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/3#post-439205 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:34:32 +0000 Vicki 439205@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Thank goodness we haven't started using negative numbers to indicate our sizes yet. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/3#post-439203 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:32:50 +0000 mollycat71 439203@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>AV, so glad that you, hubbs and the girls arrived home safely!

I'm going shortly to take a shower, and then probably pass out in front of the tube w/Hubbs.... long day of cleaning and getting ready for Monday!...</p> <p>... Hi Vicki! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/2#post-439198 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:29:00 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 439198@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Yup, that's right Vicki. I'm a UK size 16, so I'd be a 12 in the States. Size 0 is actually a 4 here, which doesn't sound as bad (but obviously still is!). </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/2#post-439197 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:27:14 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 439197@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi AV, glad you've had a good time :o)</p> <p>I'm heading for bed now, perhaps if I get a good, long night's sleep I'll get more done tomorrow! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/2#post-439195 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:26:41 +0000 Vicki 439195@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>So, say a woman who wears size 8 in the UK is more slender than a woman who wears size 8 in the US? No wonder English models are even more slender than American ones (Kate Moss, anyone?). </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/2#post-439193 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:24:34 +0000 AV 439193@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Well, we made it home!... 12 hours, two cats, stopped by UCF to see Daughter, and all baggage in tow!...... I'M EXHAUSTED!!!!!....... Cuddles was a trooper, she didn't complain, but didn't want to ride in her carrier - she just sat on the seat behind us the whole trip!... Abby (the seasoned traveler) just passed out in her carrier ( I didn't even need to zip is shut ) and slept the entire trip!.... </p> <p>We're home, had a glorious time..... back to LIFE Monday (ick!)......</p> <p>reading back threads... MerD, that is a beautiful story!.... MCW, I know you and everyone you get to meet, just can't wait!!!!! (I'm so jealous!)..... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/2#post-439190 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:18:45 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 439190@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>That'll work well for me Vicki, US sizes are lower than UK ones, so I'll feel good about it!! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/2#post-439189 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:16:55 +0000 Vicki 439189@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Well, now WWM, MCW's gonna need some undiewears so she can compare the size she wears in the UK to US sizes. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/2#post-439188 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 15:11:52 +0000 MadcatwomanintheUK 439188@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>It is, I head down to Heathrow Tuesday, and fly Wednesday morning.

One of tomorrow's jobs is to type out a basic itinerary for Mum (she wants to follow where I'll be each day), a copy for me (yes, most of it is imprinted in my brain, but you never know) and a detailed one with all contact info for Chris. Then all I have to do is work out how to fit 276 tonnes of Cadbury's into a 20kg suitcase (plus knickers, oh yes!) and I'm ready! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/20548/page/2#post-439170 Sat, 29 Aug 2009 14:34:17 +0000 cricketsmama 439170@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi all!!! Spent the day at the Natural History Museum and then I just ran to the store. We are grilling Chicken for dinner. It's been a busy but fun day.<br /> MCW, good for you for being ruthless. That is something I need to do but well, you know how that goes! </p>
