Seriously!
I fully intended to post every night on vacation but then every night I found myself sitting in our room chatting with my sisters and Mom until the late hours and I was too tired to post! So, I guess that is a really good thing! So, I can only give you day by day updates when I vacation alone!
Ha!
So I returned last Friday and my car immediately broke down! UGH! I could not go anywhere for Easter since the car was not shifting correctly (I drive a manual stick) so I spent the weekend waiting for my car appointment on Monday. I took the car in and after waiting there 1/2 day they told me they have to install a new transmission! It will take at least a week so I have no car! UGH! At least it is covered by the warranty!
The dealership got me a rental but it was not available from the company my dealership uses until Wednesday! So, I called Hertz and rented a car from them for a day and then dropped it off at the dealership and picked up my rental from Enterprise. The dealership is reimbursing me for the day rental from Hertz too! What a mess~~Now I am driving a Nissan Rogue...it feels huge compared to my little Civic! HA!
Needless to say, I am finally able to function normally and made it into the office today! Yippee!
So, it has been a little hectic but I am excited to show you trip photos ASAP!!!!

Wednesday Medley!
You know I cannot let Wednesday go by without joining in on the Medley with Terri!
Today is National Pigs in a Blanket Day?!??!
Seriously?!?! Ick!!! How does this have a day??!?? LOL!
Okay...well, here are the questions...
1. Typically served as an hors d'oeuvre, have you ever made or had a Pig-in-a-Blanket? I tried one once...ick! Do you like Pigs-in-a-Blanket? Ick - no!
2.
Pigs-in-a-blanket are also known as devils on horseback, kilted
sausages, and wiener winks. (Seriously.) Please make up another name
for this fun little appetizer! Gross little bundles of who knows what kind of meat...HA!
3. In
the UK, pigs-in-blankets are small sausages, or chipolatas wrapped up
in bacon. Which country's version is most appealing to your taste buds? None! I am absolutely shocked that those gross little things have their own day! HA!
4. The first written record of pigs-in-a-blanket occurs in Betty Crocker's Cooking for Kids in 1957. In this digital world, do you still have a favorite cookbook you use most of the time? Completely online Is there a recipe you can share with us from that cookbook? I do not, sorry .
5. What is your favorite cooking show on TV? I love that kids cooking show but I am not sure of the name!
6. Tell us something random about your week, please!
The more I read my answers above I think of that saying "If you don't have anything nice to say; don't say anything at all." I feel like I should delete this post entirely! HA HA!Have a fantastic week everyone!
Ha ha we're all entitled to our opinions. Hopefully you won't delete my comment because I LOVE pigs in blankets - but only the UK version using bacon. Although I do try not to think about what's in the sausage ;) Sounds like you had a busy fun filled vacation. Glad to hear your car works are covered under a warranty - sounds like an expensive repair.
ReplyDeleteHi Wendy! I would NEVER delete your comment or opinion! I agree that we all have different ones and I cherish them all! I might even try a bacon wrapped weenie just to give them another shot! HA! HUGS! Have a great week!
DeleteSo... do you or don't you like pigs in a blanket. Not clear here ;P
ReplyDeleteWelcome back! Your vacation was too fun for blogging - that's a good thing! Sorry about your car troubles, but I'm glad it's all covered and hope you are reunited soon.

ReplyDeleteLOL - I am definitely one of the few that do not appreciate the cute little piggies...ha!
DeleteHave a fantastic week Terri - thank for hosting - you are great at it!
Wow, you've had a time of it since you got home from vacation! Sorry you had to spend Easter at home. That stinks. Glad at least it's all covered by warranty. That saying "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all" was my dad's number one rule. Glad you had a good time on vacation and glad you're back. Looking forward to seeing the pics!
ReplyDeleteI like your Dad! That was my parents rule also! HA HA! Then they woudl whisper about the neighbors - LOL! Just kidding!
DeleteI hope you have a fantastic day Stacy! HUGS
DON'T LIKE PIGS-IN-A-BLANKET?
ReplyDeleteI am going to give Annster a negative review on Yelp!.
LOL! I guess that will have to be okay then! I am nothing if not true to myself - HA HA! Have a fantastic week - HUGS!
DeleteP.S. I am happy you are back.
ReplyDeleteAwwwwwww.....you are so sweet! Thank you!
DeleteI love pigs in a blanket
ReplyDeleteYou can have ALL of mine - ha!!! Have a great day!
DeleteCar issues are the worst, but the dance they make you do to get a car is awful. Glad it is all paid for.
ReplyDeleteI agree Tabor - just glad it is all covered under warranty also! Have a great week!
DeleteWelcome home! I am sorry about the car troubles. Hmmm, I haven't had pigs in a blanket in YEARS. Glad you had a super vacation!
ReplyDeleteThank you Robin - it really was awesome! I can't wait to get the post together! HUGS - have a great day!
DeleteWhen I hear pigs in a blanket I think of breakfast sausage wrapped with a pancake. Apparently that's not what it is lol
