That looks really yummy. I have not been making very good dinners lately. Sometimes all it takes is someone to remind me of something good and then I will actually cook again. My family will thank you!

Thanks for playing along! Meatloaf blew up when I was in high school with 'I Would Do Anything For Love' He topped the charts with that one for a while. He really is a great artist.

That just made me lmao... ;-P

I don't care what you say, it is NOT my fault. Everyone knows you're crazy anyway!

That looks very good!

I tired to leave you a comment earlier but my blog went all wonky and shut down. I was just saying that I haven't seen that show, or any show other than Nick Jr cartoons in a while :) I like the song, it's haunting but pretty!

Kim: Thanks! :) I wish I could take credit for those additions, but I'd seen recipes for "Mexican Cornbread" which essentially called for cheese and jalapenos to be added, and ever since I found this giardiniera relish I've been adding it to everything :D

Giardinera and cheese?! Great additions! Damn, now...

2009-10-16T17:17:08.402-05:00

Giardinera and cheese?! Great additions! Damn, now I have to go make cornbread again. It's just SO GOOD, isn't it?!

I am surprised there is still one around!

It is interesting how quickly people are prepared to leap to judgement with one side of a story and very few facts.The newspaper certainly gave her side of the story, but contrary o their claim, did not ask anyone from the company for thie side. I know someone who works there so took the trouble to find out. It seems the woman was a bully and many staff avoided having anything to do with her. Some were so upset with how she treated them that they threatened to leave. The Company offered all sorts of support and help to get her back on side with staff, which she refused. They even got in an Independant Mediator who was there fullime for a week and trying to sort things out. When she left the staff had a celebration champagne breakfast the next morning. Apparently she was offered something similar to the settlement to leave before she took them to the tribunal.

Ha! Now she likes it! I'm not surprised!

Hi Lynne, Thank you so much for spread the word about my survey. I really need all the help I can get as I still have a long way to go before I get my targeted number of respondents. Thanks again.

2009-10-09T09:21:21.750-05:00

thanks for the feedback :) I like green in general (something carried since high school), so I do try to have this blog reflect that.

Pretty. I like the green. And I seem to remember an older template with a similar banner available a few years back. Another blogger friend had it.

2009-10-08T07:20:38.823-05:00

Kim & Lin: thanks for your sympathies! It occurred to me that I should get some cat-repellent, as Lin has suggested, perhaps spray the back porch with it to keep them cats away. I'll keep that in mind for my next shopping trip!

Oh, I hate when other cats come to the window to a...

2009-10-07T22:03:01.251-05:00

Oh, I hate when other cats come to the window to annoy the inside cat! And the noise!!!! Yikes. You'd think there was a monster out there. Try some cat-be-gone spray or something on the windowsill. Next those toms will spray the outside of your house to mark their territory--Ick.

Wow! Those toms really like your cat ;) Too bad th...

2009-10-07T16:48:37.451-05:00

Wow! Those toms really like your cat ;) Too bad they cannot be friendly with one another! I wonder how you could get them to leave her alone.

2009-09-29T13:34:41.600-05:00

Hola Lynne,

At last you've made the right decision. Smart move.

I was among the early birds to jump in the wagon when they were starting out. It was great back then especially when there's nothing to gain except ec credits!. I came to know many awesome Bloggers and their blogs.

With the supports from us mere mortals, they became very BIG indeed. Well, the rest as they say is hisstory...

See you around, my friend. Greetings and lots of love from Malaysia.

p/s Yeah, I'm guilty as charged. No new post since March - guess I was in self-imposed exile. (Alhamdulillah) my Father is fine. In fact he has gone to Yogyakarta with my Mom and Sisters. Hope to tell about that trip in my new post soon.

Sincerely yours,

Hi,

At the end od the week, I'm pulling the widget. I already pulled my drop page and super cool robot that updates all my droppers.

I'm going to rewrite them for "Along for the Ride!"

2009-09-27T18:44:59.357-05:00

I'm reluctantly staying with EC. They've already backed off a little and it will be interesting to see how else things change over the coming days.

I've written my blog post EntreCard Updates where I explore what is going on and contrast EntreCard to Adgitize and CMF Ads.

In addition, I've set up a survey where I ask about people's preferences with blog advertising networks. I would love it if you and your readers could come by and fill out the survey.

I'll write more about the results as I gather more data.

ooooohhh tra la la la la, it's nice to see we're moving on together. no worries I'm subscribed to rss feed so you'll see me peeking in after work.

good for you, we all need to take a stand.

I had been expecting this for a while. They were in it for the advertising money in the first place. I might stick around for a while to see how it goes.

2009-09-24T13:52:15.848-05:00

This may be the end of EC, I'm seeing many blogs that will be dropping out. I'm sticking in for a while, I'll see how it goes. I don't know why they can't come up with a better plan.

2009-09-23T14:29:17.552-05:00

Stopped by via Along for the Ride. I couldn't agree with you more. I have been with Entrecard since July of last year, and this is finally the last straw. I have an Etsy shop series set to begin in October, but after that is done, I begin to pull the plug. I hope to see you around:)
