LMAO! Yeah, she was saying something about not understanding enchiladas with chile con carne on top, so I was clarifying.

And I think you are correct -- but I've never gone for the green sauce. Poor Bina. I know, you love what you know. I have trouble with cilantro sometimes -- like a lot of salsas taste like they have dishsoap in them; I think it's the cilantro/lime combo.

Oh, Claire, NOW I understand what kinda peeps you have. My kind. My two (Mexican and hispanic) coworkers and I were just talking last week, one of whom I've known forever, and we call it a 'coconut' (brown on the outside, white on the inside, the Mexican girls DH who doesn't speak Spanish), and we decided I was an inside-out coconut. White on the outside, brown on the inside.

Claire - Yes June Cleaver here, now all I need is the two boys! I inspire to be like my Grandma, with a modern twist. I just love taking care of my Buddy.

JJ - That was me, and holy crap that's a lot of money. I wish you all the luck!

So did anyone ever find Ashley? Did she get PG and just up and leave?

Ok Bina, you made me feel bad, I haven't done ANYTHING today. Well other than send two emails, print EOM, and chat with you guys. My boss will be back tomorrow. Bummer.

I have no idea what song that is. I heard it from my friend (the one you were going to beat-up, Xena) in Santa Fe last night about how I’m old (he’s ten months older than I am) now, and something about a pop song about cherry chapstick cause she liked it? I have no idea…

Oh yeah, I make GREAT flautas. Cook and shred chicken, and mix it with salt and pepper, garlic powder, chopped (canned) green chilies, sliced (canned) black olives, shredded Mexi-blend cheese, a little bit of enchilada sauce, spoon mix into oiled/heated yellow corn tortillas and fry until pretty…dip in plain sour cream…mmmm…Gawd, I’m getting hungry now too.

I may have to have some bad Tex-Mex for dinner. LOL!

Claire and Steph-ok now I am salivating!! Good thing I took a break to work out. And I meant that I don't like the Tex-mex enchiladas because they put chile con carne on them. I like the hole-in-the-wall taco stands in So. Cal. But I do like the rest of it, California mexican food and Tex-mex, yum!

Mary-don't feel bad I ususally don't get a lot done whenI work from home but we have a Grant that is due so I had to get my butt in gear!

Steph~Flautas are my absolute most favorite Mexican food. MMMMMMM!!!!!!!! I never had them until I started teaching and one of my students brought them to school for a party. Yum..... I asked a friend for the recipe once and she said, there is no recipe, you just make them. So she had me over one day to make them with me, but mine still aren't, and never will be, as good as hers.

Claire/Mary~The thing is, if we could get pregnant the first time and have some embryos to freeze for the future, that would greatly help the cost. That's what I'm hoping for anyway.

JJ, isn't that a rule? It's never as good as when someone else makes it? I have things I made up, and I make them the best. I bet my flautas aren't as good as my friend Gail's, who is the owner of the (sort of) recipe - same type, you just make them. Most of my 'special' things, there is no recipe for, you just do it.

Claire ~ I'll be there in 5 I am requesting my favorite, Carnitas Chimichangas! AYEYAYAYAYAYA!

Dudes, So Cal Mexican food is not that bad!

Steph ~ LOL! There is this new song out there by Katy Perry called, "I Kissed A Girl" Cap'n and I LOVE it, I just put it up on myspace last night.

Irene/Bina/Claire ~ It must be so nice to wear a tampon and nothing else. AF can get so heavy for me that I will be wearing a tampon and the pad will still fill up and it is like a super maxi pad!

Claire ~ I ended up finding an excuse to leave the house and do some retail therapy at Michael's and got some paint and a cartridge for my cricut (I'm talking scrapbook stuff now) as well as got some Cold Stone Ice Cream. When I got back they were gone, thank god. I tried calling Cap'n to bitch him out for not telling me they were coming, but he left his cell phone at home.

JJ ~ LOL at scooping it up, ew!

Irene ~ I hope those levels go up too, we need to get you preggers stat!

Steph - That recipe sounds great, I will be trying that very soon!

Mel - You don't seriously like that song do you? I'm like "they have obviously ran out of things to write about"

Mare - I've been thinking about you all day, and I don't know how you haven't tested again yet! I hope that I'm as calm as you!

Alright, who's winning tonight? Kristy or Pig pin boy on Hell's Kitchen


Dinners ready..

We go dancing like every other Tuesday and with the finale of Hell's Kitchen and the moment of truth we aren't going anywhere.

Speaking of Mexican food, I love our socal Mexican food, Carlos HATES IT, spends the whole time criticizing it. Luckily he is a great cook. tonight he is making chile rellenos. (mumbling, that's why I'm so damn fat)

Steph - My husband even eats steak with a tortilla, won't use a knife, it's so irritating, just rips it.

Mel - dont hate me, but I use a panty liner for my 2 days of AF. Oh forgot to tell you when i got home, Carlos was all smelling good and dressed up, I was like uhhhh I just had 2 martini's are we going out? And he's like no since your friend saw me in my work clothes I wanted her to see I clean up nice.

JJ - Have you checked to see if any clinics by you have a shared risk program? The quote I had gotten was $28,000 and that was for 3 tries...as of August I won't qualify anymore.

Betsy- Thanks for the blinkies! Steak with a tortilla-sounds about right. Is Carlos from NM? LOL.

Mel- OMG, I HATE that song! I heard it once the other day and just wanted to smack that little girl around. The song is like "my parents didn't love me, so I'm going to PRETEND to be a lesbian to turn men on and get attention" ugg! Course, you went to that George Michael concert, so I guess I shoulda known! Ha
