Today was a very productive day i must say. I spent the night at Erica's house last night. We watched Tv, talked and drank wine. And today, I feel like i made a differece. -=)
We started the day off by going to The breast cancer walk at Jones Beach. We walked about 5-6 miles! WOW! -=) Amazing! I went with Erica, Art, Aizza, Alaina, Jay, Mike, and Ben. It was definitely a first for all of us. Great experience! There were moments where we just wanted to give up, turn around and just end the walk, but whenever someone gave up, there was always someone there to motivate. The gusty wind couldn't stop us!
Afterwards, we headed straight to Oyster Bay to join an OYSTER FESTIVAL. YUMMY! Everyone was so hungry after that long walk, we devoured everything in site. Great Experience for me! We had some Oyster chowder, fried oysters, some fresh guacamolie with tostada, empanadas, some crab bunns, southern gumbo, turkey, funnel cake, Belgian waffles with ice cream (yum!) some fried chicken, and ofcourse, FRESH OYSTERS! Delish!
After exhausting our mouths chewing on wonderful food, we left Oyster Bay and headed towards home and ended our day with some Nachos and Salsa, and some frozen Margaritas and pinacoladas! Amazing! -=)

$250 for a cookie recipe....
Found this from the internet today.... $250 for a recipe??? OMFG..
oh, and here's 24 Differnt Ways to lace ur shoes... fun....
| SUBJECT: EXPENSIVE LESSON - $250.00 COOKIE RECIPE
|
| My daughter and I had finished a salad at the Neiman-Marcus Cafe in Dallas
| and decided to have a small desert. Because our family members are such
| "Cookie Monsters", we decided to try the Neiman-Marcus Cookie. It was so
| good that I asked if they would give me the recipe. She said with a frown,
| "I'm afraid not", "Well", I said, "Would you let me buy the recipe?" With a
| cute smile, she agreed. I asked how much, and she responded "Two Fifty".
| I said with approval, "Just add it to my tab".
|
| Thirty days later I received my statement from Neiman-Marcus and it was
| $285.00. I looked again and remembered I had only spent $9.95 for two salads
| and about $20 for a scarf. As I glanced at the bottom of the statement said
| "Cookie Recipe-$250". Boy was I upset! I called Neiman's accounting office
| and told them the waitress said it was "two fifty" and did not realize she
| meant $250 for a cookie recipe. I asked them to take back the recipe and
| reduce my bill, but they said they were sorry, but all recipes were this
| expensive so not just anyone could duplicate the bakery recipes...the bill
| would stand.
|
| I thought of how I could try to get even or try to get my money back.
| I just said okay, you folks got my $250 and now I'm going to have $250 worth
| of fun. I told her that I was going to see to it that every cookie lover
| will have the $250 recipe from Neiman-Marcus for nothing. She replied "I
| wish you wouldn't do this." I said, "I'm sorry, but this is the only way I
| feel I can get even and I will." So here it is, please pass it on to someone
| else or run a few copies...I paid for it, so now you can have it for free!!!
|
| 2 cups butter 1 tsp. salt
| 2 cups sugar 2 tsp. baking powder
| 2 cups brown sugar 2 tsp. soda
| 4 eggs 24 oz. chocolate chips
| 2 tsp. vanilla 1-8 oz. Hershey bar, grated
| 4 cups flour 3 cups chopped nuts
| 5 cups blended oatmeal*
|
| Cream butter and both sugars. Add eggs and vanilla. Mix together with
| flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder and soda. Add chocolate chips, Hershey
| bar and nuts. Roll into balls and place two inches apart on a cookie sheet.
| Bake for 10 minutes at 375. Makes 112 cookies (recipe may be halved).
|
| * Measure oatmeal and blend in a blender to a fine powder.
|
| Have fun! This is not a joke - this is a true story!!!! |
