Small other note, people seem to be having a hard time finding where to comment.. if you go to the bottom of this post you will see a line that says. ~ Posted by Maddie X comments~.

I am trying to figure out how to make that bolder.. but fear messing up the whole blog.. but if you click there for now you can also play along!

LOL! I thought about all of the lovely, and memorable meals I've had, but then realized the MOST memorable one was the one we talk about to this day - a Chinese lunch where after entering we were met with all kiinds of bugs, (lots of crunchy ones. ewwwwwwww!), creepy crawler things, slimy things, things that croak, and whine, and thins that slither!!!
I ordered sauted spinach!!! LOL They all laughed at me, but hey when the waiter tells you that if you order a snake you have to take ALL of him I knew immediately that I could hear the call to become a vegetarian!! lol lol

Hi Maddie:
I debated over which meal was my most memorable. There have been many. But I'd have to say the one I reflect on the most would be the last Christmas dinner that I had at my Grandma's before she passed away. She loved everything about Christmas and although her funds were minimal she always made Christmas special. I miss her most this time of year. My favorite decorations are the ones she passed on to me for the first Christmas after I got married. She was a very special lady!! Merry Christmas to you and your family.

Hi Maddie,

The Christmas dinner that stands out in my mind is the year when we had pumpkin pie for desert (using my Aunt's favorite receipe) and I forgot to put sugar in the pumpkin mix. Should should have seen the look on everyones face after they took a bite.

I just found this blog with so many fun ideas!My birthday is FRIDAY what a fun present finding you! My most memorable meal was with my husband,we went out to dinner at a fancy gourmet place and ordered their signature dessert. It was called a chocolate sack for 2. It looked exactly like a paper sack on its side with extra large strawberries and whipped cream spilling out! It's been 20 years and we still talk about how fun that was! pwoody3113@yahoo.com
