genoandkiddo Posted November 19, 2004 Author Posted November 19, 2004 One week peoples. We are down to ONE WEEK. Yeah!!!! okay let me just answer a few questions first blue kitty there will be a truck maybe a van and a suv there is also going to be another 2 cars. So yeah, I think we got that part covered. Okay COOKIE SALAD is a real recipe, my children love it. No this is not a family recipe and no there is no secret. 1cup buttermilk1pkg instant vanilla pudding(mix these two together)*do not use regular milk*then add:1(8oz tub) of cool whipabout 10 ribbon chocolate cookies(the striped ones)crushed*have used chocolate chip cookie, not as good, you probably could use vanilla waffers, never tried them so who knows. Use them at your own risk.Let that stand a few minutes, just long enough for the pudding mixture to stiffen Then add:2 cans (drained) mandarin oranges1 29oz can (drained) fruit cocktail once you have stirred it all up then sprinkle some cookies on the top and refrigerate.This salad can be prepared two days in advance. Don't worry if cookies get soggy there suppose to. I love this salad, found it in some magazine. Since then We eat it for either thanksgiving or christmas. Also this is an extremely easy recipe, if you need more double the recipe, this year I am going to quadrupple the recipe. So we have plenty of leftovers MMMMMMM!!!
Rebirth Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 7 days away. Just 3 days of school next week

purplekiss Posted November 19, 2004 Posted November 19, 2004 LOL well Ladies let me tell you, I don't cook on Thanksgiving......... MY HUSBAND DOES !!!!! He can cook up a holiday meal better than my mother and my grandmother ROTFL sometimes I think thats why I married him <G>So on Thanksgiving I will be kicking back watching him slave over a hot stove and fanning myself Oh how I love a man that can cook Ditto Jaidensmom! My hubby has ALWAYS done thanksgiving AND christmas dinners! I've never done them hehe I just sit back and let him serve me

Brad Posted November 22, 2004 Posted November 22, 2004 No problem. Just promise us that you'll stop by every so often after BF is over :) We'll still be here.
motoXmom Posted November 22, 2004 Posted November 22, 2004 Well since the deals are year round I will be here! I like how helpful everyone is and there are alot of everyday items you can save $$ on . So it's just not a BF site! Lovin' it! Thanks again
genoandkiddo Posted November 22, 2004 Author Posted November 22, 2004 4 MORE DAYS. OH MY!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is only 4 more days. I am so excited I can't sleep. Well I can sleep, but I have been getting up early. Preparing myself I think. I am hoping this week goes by fast.
motoXmom Posted November 22, 2004 Posted November 22, 2004 LOL maybe we all should go into a 3rd shift sleep mode for the week to prepare!
venerdinero Posted November 22, 2004 Posted November 22, 2004 LOL maybe we all should go into a 3rd shift sleep mode for the week to prepare! That's funny! But no. Why not?? Simple. Adrenalin GOOOOOOOD!!
genoandkiddo Posted November 22, 2004 Author Posted November 22, 2004 But what if your adrenalin is already rushing? I am not just excited about BF, okay I am extremely excited, but I am also excited for Thanksgiving. My parents moved up here from UT this summer and it has been five yrs since I got to have Thanksgiving with them so I am excited to be able to spend it with them. So I think I will be lack of sleep until after the holiday(that includes BF).
Rebirth Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 3 more days, just 2 more days school. And it's a 4 day break.
elena_398 Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 I usually don't sleep night before BF. I will make sure a pot of coffee is always available for me throughout the day! Of course stop after a certain period....Im by myself and no one to take my place in line in case of a needed "break"!!! LOL
genoandkiddo Posted November 24, 2004 Author Posted November 24, 2004 I am so excited went down today to help my mom, we saw lots of good stuff. Hurry up already RIGHT?
Rebirth Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 2 more days. I have school later today then meet my friends to plan our strategies for BF. :lol
genoandkiddo Posted November 24, 2004 Author Posted November 24, 2004 realflava thanks for taking over and posting the count down for me. I have been so busy I haven't had time to post in the mornings like today.
Guest Luckycharm Posted November 24, 2004 Posted November 24, 2004 No problem. Just promise us that you'll stop by every so often after BF is over :) We'll still be here. What you think you're gonna get rid of us THAT easy?? I plan on coming here daily just to bug ya hon
genoandkiddo Posted November 26, 2004 Author Posted November 26, 2004 It's tomorrow and with that I will be heading to bed. Even though I won't sleep a wink I am going to try.
babixmary Posted November 26, 2004 Posted November 26, 2004 Today!!! anyone getting ready to leave yet? I dunno what time I should go to CC
RossMAN Posted November 26, 2004 Posted November 26, 2004 Today!!! anyone getting ready to leave yet? I dunno what time I should go to CCWhat time zone are you in?
RossMAN Posted November 26, 2004 Posted November 26, 2004 30 minutes for those of us on the West Coast.
Livin4Real Posted November 26, 2004 Posted November 26, 2004 I'm about to hit the door, it's 2:30am here in Indy!!! No rest for the wicked, Meijer opens at 5am!!!
Rebirth Posted November 26, 2004 Posted November 26, 2004 The day is here. It's offical until the first BF sale starts which is Meijer.
shopperstef Posted November 26, 2004 Posted November 26, 2004 We don't have a Meijer's... we probably won't leave the house until 4.30am-ish. I'm not brave enough to hit Bestbuy early so we'll head to the tamer stores before lining up for Sears or Mervyn's.
