I'm afraid I might disappoint, though, in the grammar and punctuation department. Actually, I think it's more spelling and typos... we'll see ;) My husband tells a funny story about a former boss who encouraged his employees to look over contracts with "a fine tooth and comb." That always makes me laugh. And the other good ones are what my kids say when they're testing out new words... of course, I can't think of a funny example right now though!<br />Oh, and my husband does not drink coffee either and I often wish he'd just sit on the couch, sip a fresh brew (well, I kind of guzzle it) and appreciate a good dark roast with me.<br />Happy Thanksgiving!<br />Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09440812661317797011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640846201971673514.post-52634076403223750142012-11-20T22:41:54.112-05:002012-11-20T22:41:54.112-05:00My husband brought me over to the coffee dark side...My husband brought me over to the coffee dark side. The wonderful, delicious, glorious dark side! Yes, sometimes you don't even want the coffee so much as the sitting and chatting that goes along with it.<br /><br />Grammar pet peeve: writing "adieu" when you really mean "ado". You think that doesn't happen all the time and then you start noticing that it happens all the time and you wanna scream! (no commas)<br /><br />T-giving: Gimme mah stuffing!<br />Dwija {House Unseen}https://www.blogger.com/profile/17887429052179249473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640846201971673514.post-38565612541679217822012-11-20T21:09:14.345-05:002012-11-20T21:09:14.345-05:00Yes Brian takes after his Dad with the Pepsi/coffe...Yes Brian takes after his Dad with the Pepsi/coffee situation. At least Brian got off of the Pepsi! 35 years of marriage and we have NEVER sat and sipped coffee together. I on the other hand have had enough coffee to take care of both of us and then some. It definitely helps on project days. I'm full strength but never Starbucks level. <br /><br />"Processed" is a nicer way of describing the turkeys activities today!<br /><br />Favorite part of Thanksgiving Dinner? Hmmm? Pie and sipping coffee with people after dinner. If you don't count all the other dishes we have.<br /><br />Happy Thanksgiving! <br />Grandma & Grumpy<br /><br />L's momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05926894595572254481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640846201971673514.post-18245102074615285082012-11-20T20:31:43.895-05:002012-11-20T20:31:43.895-05:00If you do convert Brian, let me know how you did i...If you do convert Brian, let me know how you did it. I would love to share a cup of coffee with Kevin someday. But Kevin likes tea and I do too, so maybe I should just be good with that. I do 50% caffeine - one scoop of each : )Jill Foleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15919221814694982320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640846201971673514.post-87459494240557159392012-11-20T20:03:53.848-05:002012-11-20T20:03:53.848-05:00I wish I could express myself as articulately and ...I wish I could express myself as articulately and humorously as you do, Mary. You are truly gifted and I love reading your posts - they make me think, laugh, cry and reflect. This is a great outlet for your talents - thank you for sharing them!<br />I can't wait to see your floors - they must look amazing! <br />I totally get what you mean about the coffee, relational thing - it's really true. It's so nice to linger over a cup of coffee with someone. One of life's little pleasures! Do you really think you can convert Brian??<br />It must be sad to say goodbye to those cute little turkeys - I think I would feel the same way. It's hard to eat someone you knew - but I bet they'll be delicious! <br />Hope to see you this weekend sometime. xoxoGrandma Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01414633548803740268noreply@blogger.com
