It is officially winter

and officially, my little village got its first snow late last night. There have been a tease of flakes at times, but it has been all green up until this morning. Today, the snow covered the grass.

yesterday afternoon I saw Joey was watching the snowflakes fall. They weren't really sticking, so I didn't expect anything to wake up to.

however, I did wake up to a good dusting. Nothing on the roads. Maybe an inch fell?

with the sun, it is already melting.

Snuggle?! You DID NOT just say that. I will have my *** ready.

theecarey - 12/23/09 12:27
it's pretty much gone now.

theecarey - 12/22/09 21:28
Tropics of Buffalo, haha. You are onto something, Tiny. If you get too cold, come snuggle with the furry basement beast.

tinypliny - 12/22/09 16:45
Exactly where do you live - the secret tropics in Buffalo?! No wonder the basement monster likes it there...

G rated Cookies

Ok, time for G rated cookie pics.

big mess compared to the organization depicted in (e:theecarey,50601)

lots of sugar cookies and gingerbread men

soft peanut butter cookie w/ Hershey's kiss

A white chocolate coated oreo ball

(ground oreos, cream cheese mixed together then chilled. Followed by dipping into melted white chocolate. Crazy easy and yummy)

theecarey - 12/27/09 13:04
lol Actually that is still true. I managed to not eat dozens of them like I did everything, and I mean everything else. I had maybe three, total. Stupid truffle texture. But everyone else would like them A LOT. :D

pyrcedgrrl - 12/27/09 12:56
You didn't like the oreo balls because they turn out very similar to truffles. ;)

theecarey - 12/22/09 21:33
You might like it as it doesn't taste or feel like anything with cream cheese. I didn't make them, but I was impressed with how simple they were to make and how yummy they are for just using three ingredients. Cream cheese seems to be used as a vehicle for moisture and holding the ground cookies together. I have used cream cheese in my sugar cookie recipes.

metalpeter - 12/22/09 20:01
cookies sound interesting, I'm not a cream cheese fan but I bet they are still pretty good

more cookie "art"

3am silliness.

Just making use of cookie "mistakes".

I call this, "Bukkookie"

more cookie pictures to come..

G rated ones, that is.

pyrcedgrrl - 12/27/09 13:01
I just realized that the "puddle cookie" is the one with the Loch Ness monster on him. lol

pyrcedgrrl - 12/27/09 12:57
OMG. This is the best picture ever.

I am wondering when my bulbs will start going. I have had them in every lamp and light socket for six years straight. They used to be expensive but I have seen that they have come down a lot in price. I remember earlier last year turning my bf at the time to adopt some energy saving behaviors, switching to CFLs was one way. That is when I was surprised at how inexpensive they have become. Apparently I haven't been in the market to buy bulbs in awhile!

tinypliny - 12/22/09 20:16
They are certainly green because they save a ton of electricity and reduce waste 100 fold - because some of them by GE are supposed to last 7 years with a warranty! A little mercury which you can certainly protect against (during disposal) is small price to pay for such green savings.

metalpeter - 12/22/09 20:05
I didn't think about the kitchen lighting now a see how the yellow forms. By the way those bulbs last much longer then regular bulbs. I think they are better then this new long lasting bulbs that are supposed to be green but yet have Mercury in them, yes the stuff that is in thermometers and that can cause cancer, ARGH. In terms of the movie Idea I have seen some animated gingerbread men but never them used as the art like how they do with south park or claymation. I have never even seen a Christmas Porn, I know there must be one out there someplace that is good.

theecarey - 12/22/09 13:50
The icing is not pure white, but it isn't yellow like that either. It is likely the lighting in the kitchen. I use those compact fluorescent bulbs, and it gives everything a yellowish cast. Peter, you make me laugh. Cookie Monster eating all the porn cookies is a great way to end the movie.

metalpeter - 12/21/09 20:14
That is great. Question was the stuff on them white and the flash makes it look yellow? Some with here and facebook I have a fealing next year you are going to film a Christmas Cookie Porn and in the end Cookie monster will come in and eat them all and we don't get to see how the plot to the movie ends, HA, well I guess Cookie Monster would be how the movie ends.

lilho - 12/21/09 14:33
hahaha! i am gonna make cookies tonight, but i will keep it g rated.

That cookie is definitely grinning

metalpeter - 12/21/09 20:44
I remember parts of it HA. seriously I don't remember all of it. I do remember it was fun though. I wonder what ever happened to sub chat rooms on (e:strip) and if when the new version comes out when ever it does if that will be a feature that returns. I wonder if any sites have a way to publish search results for pictures, HA. Maybe I should google my self one of these days and sees what comes up.

theecarey - 12/21/09 20:29
Oh I remember that chat, Peter. haha

metalpeter - 12/21/09 20:17
Wow I'm having flash backs to a chat years ago, HA. If I was that cookie I would never leave the house, HA, no seriously I would like never leave. Glad you had a great time making cookies

theecarey - 12/21/09 14:25
You guys crack me up. Since we have a perverted group, it is time to post another cookie picture.. lol

joshua - 12/21/09 13:13
NO WAY. LOL! You just made my day!

rory - 12/21/09 10:27
Oh - hang on. He's licking his own pecker isn't he. Bit slow on the uptake on that one I'm afraid.

rory - 12/21/09 10:26
Just out of curiosity - is that a smile, or is he spunking blood?

lauren - 12/21/09 10:12
AMAZING!

ladycroft - 12/21/09 05:54
I'd probably get arrested if I made those here! haha

mrmike - 12/20/09 20:55
For only you and Dana can "baking cookies" be a euphemism

jbeatty - 12/20/09 15:48
Not many cookies can do that!

Santas and Angels

Cookies making was a hilarious time. I meant to post about the cookies, but that will come later...

but I got side tracked at sketchysanta.com (thanks (e:libertad,50606) - so flippin' funny!)

All the kids look mortified. We learn about 'stranger danger' but then are encouraged to go sit on some strange mans lap?!

Santa is so lecherous!

Oh, then I got sidetracked into looking at other stuff, naturally.

..THEN somewhere in my mind the thought to look up "BUCK ANGEL" surfaced. Thanks to whomever planted that seed. MY EYES! MY EYES!

As I was told, a simple Google image search will tell you all you need to know.

Sketchy Santa and Buck Angel.

What better way to spend a peaceful Sunday?

metalpeter - 12/21/09 20:23
Just wanted to ad that since growing up I have learned Stanger Danger is dangerous to kids. Yes most assults and kidnapping and that kind of nasty stuff happens to them by people they know. I won't repeat that stat but the % is you are a kid and you are kidnaped or sexualy abused it is by someone you know. Then sometimes a child who is in trouble won't get help because they won't approach someone who is a stranger. On a side note santa is safe mom and dad or one of them is right there. But if you use the logic on say a bus or at the mall, lots of parents would freak out who is that who is talking to my kid!!!!!!!
