newlifemom Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 What's your favorite dessert? That's a tough one. I guess I would have to go with fresh strawberries and natural vanilla ice cream right now. It is subject to change, and certain times of the month it will be flourless choc. cake. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newlifemom Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Why flourless choc. cake? Does that taste good? I don't know how they make it. Only had it in restaurants but, it is pure heaven. More like fudge, but I don't think fudge is the right analogy. I don't know what to compare it to. We should ask Julie in CA. I think she is the WTM Desert Fairy. :D Oh, dh and I finally got to use our Claim Jumper gift card. They have this ice cream pie thing that is sick! It was so yummy. Cookie crust, coffee ice-cream, hot fudge, and whipped cream. Yummy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newlifemom Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Who are Earle, Lucy, Bo Bo, Lil Sunny Hope and the 3 unnamed members of your family? If you don't mind me asking. Those are the children of mine that didn't make it past the 2nd trimester. We normally give all our kids 'womb' names, but three of our losses were so fast we didn't have enough time to come up with one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny_Weatherwax Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Not personally. You are going to help. Or you can tell me your tired and I'll stop bugging you. In the meantime... Have you ever driven a convertible? I have always wanted one and am thinking about buying one this summer. I have my eye on an older VW bug convertible.

Have you ever driven a convertible? I have always wanted one and am thinking about buying one this summer. I have my eye on an older VW bug convertible. I don't think I have. Trying to remember. Now as for the VW bug, how old? Way back to the 70's or a newer/older one. I like the real old ones and I think they are easier to maintain.

I like the real old ones and I think they are easier to maintain. 1960's - the good bugs. I don't like the new ones. DH and I owned VW bugs before we had kids. We thought they weren't very safe for transporting babies so we sold them. Now we wish we had kept them. The prices on them have skyrocketed. If you could go anywhere in the world tomorrow, where would you go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny_Weatherwax Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Hello - Big Penguin. Nice of you to make an appearance. Newlife had better show up because I got out of bed to see how many more posts she needed. Then I had to go back and look at the science site that someone on the High School board posted. Now I need lots and lots of money to spend on science equipment. All because Newlife wants to be an Empress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
