Hey Cool! New thingy!

Hey Cool! New thingy!

I shared this on facewack and will post it here too.
.
It's a recipe for insanely awesome toffee puff corn that I grew up having during the holidays.
Several years ago P*nky and I were talking about it cuz she experienced it in Chicago.

.
.
I have renamed it

.
.
"Gimme Crack Corn"


.
Insanely good stuff!!!!
.
In a large sauce pan:
.
1 C butter
1 C brown sugar
1/2 C Dark corn syrup (you can use light if you want, no biggie)
.
Simmer this for 5 minutes
Remove from the heat and add
.
1 tsp Baking Soda
1 tsp Butter
.
Pour over 2 1/2 bags of puffed hull-less puffcorn and stir to cover
.
Toss it on a baking sheet or 2 (imagine you want to keep it kernals moreso than a big blob)
Bake 1 hour at 225 degrees
Stir every 15 minutes
and also stir while cooling after.
.
May as well buy 5 bags and plan on making another batch. HA!HA!HA!

Yay a new page
thanks for the recipe Emjay

lil disappointing no new face time with the queen.

You are welcome Nancy!
Facebookers are trying to figure out if they have puff corn in their area. I think it is pretty nationwide but ya never know. It's like Cheese curls shaped like popcorn sans the cheese but salty. Melts in your mouth.
`
In other news: I miss my Mom today.
Thinking of holiday baking/making always does it to me.
`
just about time for a new Project Runway!
Hope everyone who reads this has a GREAT WEEK!

Evening all! :-)


((ANT)) Thank-you for this place. Thank-you for YOU! :-)

This evening I caught a bit of 'Brothers & Sisters'. The show had this lovely little tune playing over the last scenes of the show.

She goes for her PET Scan today Monday 11/16/09 at 4:15 EST. We have to be there at 3:45 because they are going to inject her with that radioactive serum???, But she can't be around anyone for 1 1/2 hours. Then my sister and I will go on Wed. 11/18 to get the results of that. I'm trying to stay positive with this trust me I am, but we will not know the extent of the Cancer until after the PET Scan. Then the Doctors will decide what they are going to do, Chemo or radiation. Shes really not a candidate for another surgery, because of her breathing and oxygen being so low its running around 87-90 and thats on 3 litres of oxygen.
`
`
`
`
I'm sure once we know the results and know where everything stands and what course of action shes gonna be doing, we will feel better. Thank you Dee and Jeannie for telling me that Positive Thinking is the best medicine, I know that, well I keep telling myself that. But I'm still in the state of shock, seeing that she just had major back surgery in May and it was not caught??? She goes for bloodwork every 6-8 weeks which includes a CBC why didn't it show up in her blood??? I just have so many questions and I will get them. I just wanted to thank you guys for your well wishes. Thank you again.

BedBug/Robin: Thats great news on the 15 pounds, my husband has Diabetes he was diagnosed in 1994, he bounced up and down with his weight, as I became pregnant 3 times, he thought he was also pregnant and ate with me, LOL, but now I'm so jealous, he keeps his weight very steady for the past 4 years, he has about 25-30 pounds to go yet, hes having a hard time getting that off, I think he needs to walk, LOL. But a Diabetic Diet is very good & Healthy. Are you on any meds?? My husbands on 4 but what helped him loose the weight was the Byetta Shot, ask your Doctor and maybe the weight will melt off you, hey its worth a try, it really helped John.
`
`
`
`
`
Thanks again for Listening, Love to all. Renee Eve

what happened to my mocha ? sniff

hey colonistas.........hope you are all well

good morning K!

Yayyyy it’s Monday! Random fact: I have no random facts about Monday. What are thinking? It’s Monday. I’m not supposed to think on Mondays.


Ok I lost myself with that one.


Coffee Time!


If you want something good on Monday, check out MJ’s popcorn recipe. Get the PUFF kind without hulls… not regular popcorn. :-p


Ok folks, I have nothing to share today other than my love for y'all. Besides that I am plain yogurt, no fruit on the bottom. ♥
(lol) I'll leave that last one alone

VANCOUVER GIRL I AM SORRY ABOUT YOUR MOCHA DRINK IT WAS LATE AND I WANTED TO SURPRISE EVERYONE WITH A DRINK SO I WENT BACK A FEW WEEKS JUST TO COPY AND PASTE PLEASE FORGIVE AND AND TO RENEE EVE I AM WITH YOU AND YOUR MOM IN THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS OK, COLEEN

:) ahh thank Nancy and Coleen ! Thought for a min. someone drank it on me!
.
Have a good Monday everyone.

I just want to give a shout-out to Nancy and a thank you for the memory candles for Richard this past year ♥..
.
Just sending extra luv and hugs to ANT.I'm sure this will be a tough week. Always remember u are never alone...We love you. ♥

RENEE. God bless you and your family.

`
Heidi, I too have been thinking of ANT this week. Sending strength and power.
``
Thanks for the coffee Nancy!
`
HEY CHRIS!
Ya king of spiced nuts!
I am headed to the grocer to pick up ingredients for said crack-corn.
I MUST pack it for gifts right after it cools and put it in a LOCKED ROOM or something.
`
The stuff is so good plus add childhood memories and wow.
`
It's a glorious day here on the great northern plains.
Blue sky. 50. meteor shower tonight. Doesn't even feel like a Monday! :o)

(((Colony)))


YUMMY recipe Emjay! Thank you! I will be making this if I can find the puff corn. If not, I will use regular popcorn???


COLEEN and NANCY--thank you for the hot cocoa :)


Hope everyone is having a wonderful Monday!! And has a great week!

(Chris, you are most definitely not plain yogurt, blech!) :)

ANT I AM THINKING OF YOU AND SENDING YOU MUCH LOVE, MANY HUGS, AND LOTS OF PRAYERS. XOXOXOXOXOXOXO

EMJAY: Where does this puffed hulless puffcorn come from? This might be the answer to my prayers. Mr. BedBug is devastated that he can no longer have nuts or popcorn due to his diverticulitis, and this recipe you list sounds like a treat he could eat and would be excited about.
RENEE EVE: Thanks for the encouragement. God bless your whole family right now and good luck to your mom with her tests.
ANT: You are in my heart, and I am sending you special ((((hugs)))).

ALI-KAT: I LOVE being the fun librarian! Thank you!

CRAIG: Watch this now.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2PJiwsA7XJM&feature=related

Okay, now c'mon!!!!!! Aren't you at least smiling? Tell me there's not one vision of a sugarplum dancing about your little head?

I am sending love out to everyone and announcing that....

three times I tried to post a celebration of Richard and they all vanished into cyberland

Morning! Tuesday style!
`
Robin. The puffcorn around here is from Old Dutch and Cheetos makes some too in flavors. It's pretty much cheese curls/cheetos/doodles in popcorn shapes without the cheese flavor, though it also comes in flavors like cheese.
I never thought about popcorn and diverticulitis but of course that would be bad. Bummer.
I wonder if he could eat "Wheat nuts". Man I used to love those things. Would maybe be a crunchy substitute for him, or corn chips?
`
Cute new ELFIE Vid ANT!
You've got some mighty fine moves there! :o)
`
I missed the meteor shower last night but hear it is also again tonight. Anyone see it?
`
It's wayyyyy to early for me to be talking. Sinus headache and lack of coffee. Must remedy both. Now. :o)

hahahahah I asked for face time and we get that?? ;) I love it ANT. thanks for making me smile. I missed my train last night so now trying to figure out how to make it down for the memorial service, figure out how if we can leave the dog here, etc. It's been a LOOOOOOONG night.

Peace and love to all!

ok weird. I posted on here this morning and it isn't here.
Testing?

Test test I can't post here. Well, I write it up and it doesn't post.

((ANT))

Today, tomorrow and always.

Today, tomorrow and always.

Thank-you Nancy for posting the link so often. :-)

Well THERE my posts are! So wacky. I posted and checked back later and no post. Again. Same. Now I come and they are magicly here. HURRAY!
Moderator I emailed. "Nevermind"! ;o)

Apparently there is a new feature here called "lag time"? :o)

Thanks for posting the link as you have over the year, Nancy.
It's been in my bookmarks...and I hesitate to take it out, but I had told myself all along that I would light candles for the first year. And then stop. I usually light three. This time, I only lit one (Restraint. Finality. etc.) Then I saw your post. Three times. Ha! Very funny.
We miss you, Richard.

Have a loving day, ANT & Colony.

I'm relieved to find it missing posts happened to everyone not just me

Ear bondage is a strange thing. i pulled my hair back put it in low pony. and noticed my poor ears were tied back like little common criminals, wanting to pop out but restrained. somehow it just feels wrong.

Well i must say i feel sad at this blog lately. Few blogs. page slow loading, disappearing posts. and continuous asking for new page just to get page to load properly. Colony peeps leaving because of that and feels like no one cares. Ive offered to help in any way i can to keep it going here.


Im not one to complain without offering a solution. Perhaps we need to create a colony blog, where members can take turns posting a blog for the colony. i would love to wake up daily and hear a colony members thoughts.
Just a thought. what do i know. Im fricken delirius.


Last night i thought i should go see meteor shower and i drag my flu infested body out to darkest part of yard. The dogs bark and i see this white stripe running toward me. i ran into the house. thinking i had evaded the skunk, but as the dogs ran in the other door i discovered they had not evaded the skunk. by the time i got the dogs out, me and the house smelled. so i sat with my ozonator to de-stink me and my house, getting headache from ozonator but preferable to the smell. did i mention i burnt out my nostrils putting vicks on them. Oh ya and that was the good part of my weekend. and how are you all doing???

♥♥(((Ant)))♥♥

Thinking of you and sending love and light your way.


(((DEE))) So sorry you are sick and having to deal with all of that! Yikes! Like your thoughts on the blog :)


(((ALI))) You are on my mind today! Hope you are having a good week ♥

(((COLONY))) ♥♥♥♥

DEE...I love you and send you many hugs (even if you are smelly!! LOL) I love your idea about the blog. I feel like we are missing so many friends. It is hard to deal with all the issues on the site when there are so many posts and not a new page. I don't want to 'leave ANT' or this place he has created for us but I do wish it were easier.


MRS BEAN...how are you? How are the kids?


DAWN....love and hugs to you. Reading anything good right now?


HEIDI...I love you!


CHRIS...how is work going?


CRAIG...hope you and Argus are fine and dandy!


EMJAY...you make me smile! I wanna come hang out with you.


BEDBUG...how are you and Mr. Bedbug doing? I send my love.


COLONY KAT...I may need to curl up on the couch with you. Any room?


Love, hugs, prayers out to all that want or need them.


"ketchup" with you all later.....

Yes Steph! You always get me! I love you girl. Its about wanting to keep the colony together.


Can you imagine waking up to Ginger and her grandbabies saying good morning with her accent that makes me melt? Or Emjay giving us her take on her day. i know i would be giddy. or Chris enlightening us with a new word of the day. right spanky? or maybe Nancy taking us on one of her adventures? or Ali-Kat showing us how to conquer the world one nap at a time. oh my mind reels at the possibilities.


ErinBear - ♥♥♥♥

Where is everybody? (crickets crickets crickets)
I was all ready to talk about my big plans for the January challenge. Way bigger than learning to crochet, which is what I THOUGHT I would tackle.
Well, if anyone shows up, give me a shout.

Dee {{HUGS}}(from a distance) I can relate to your skunk issue, my kitty didn't have sense enough to keep distance and got sprayed, we had to give him a special bath to neutralize the odor, but of course by then the damage is done the house was permeated with skunk smell and your nostrils just want to crawl up inside your head to escape peeeeeyuuuuuu
I have a small (or not) problem that you might have suggestions for
my right heel has been hurting for 2 weeks and I suspect my achilles tendon of tendonitis, is there some holistic way to treat it besides cold/heat packs and just keeping wt off it?
and why does it take so long for the colony to upload? it didn't used to take so long when we had more posts than now on it

need some healing power sent Janie's way her surgery didn't so so well she now has infection
let us send LOA thoughts of healing her way

Dee where is your blog? You know I would be a subscriber =)


ANT thinking of you deeply today.

well assuming my post doesnt disappear again, i will try again.


Nancy. The first thought i have is that you could have calcium build up. That is common cause of your pain. For tendonitis or bursitis it is good to take a good amino complex. It helps to heal tendons and tissues and so much more.


I have a great recipe for a plaster that will help. nice and simple. Cover the soles of your feet with a thick layer of petroleum jelly. Crush several cloves of Garlic and wrap in one or two layers of cotton. leave on overnight. This effectively treats pneumonia, as well as tendonitis and bursitis.


That is straight from Michael Tierra's book, a renowned herbalist. honest not trying to make you smell like me. LOL.

Good day all!

I think the NBC site has POST repellant. lol


((DEE)) www.antcomic.com/blog is an easy place to post. Not many go there that often. Perhaps we should change that.

((MrsBean))

Have a great Wednesday!

ANT.
(reworked wall post from facebook in case you don't see your facewack tomorrow.)
`
`
I know tomorrow is a rough day for you.
I will be gone to a Doc appointment for Blake's Crohn's disease and that's why I am stopping by early to tell you that I am so sorry you lost Richard.
I hope you can spend at least part of the day not being sad.
Knowing you, you will be laughing and crying and remembering and connecting.
I know you know he is always with you.
I know you know that he is proud of you, understands you, loves you.
I know you are and will be bombarded with well wishes and notes and emails so I will restrain my "fab ability" to babble.
You are such a wonderful friend to me.
Truly.
Have a blessed day and give yourself permission to feel however you need to feel.

HAPPY HUMPDAY COLONY

Hello Colony! It's nice to see such love here.


Short for words, emotional hump day.


♥ ANT ♥


I like the suggestions too... feeling like http://www.antcomic.com should be a daily stop as well as NBC.


The 2 side by side.


Stop! In the name of love...

"We can make our family as we make friends." - Maya Angelou

We have our family here - we do all the things families should. Love each other unconditionally, support each other, celebrate the happy times, hug it out during the hard times...I'm so thankful and grateful to have met/spent time with ALL of you! xxoo

Dee..I'm sad as well and worried..I'm not good dealing with change and I don't want to see this place drift away..I'm so greatful to be a part of this family we have here as Donna mentioned above..I just want to offer with my outstretched arms the biggest hugs to all of you and for ANT who brought us together. ♥♥♥

I do post at ANTComic but for the past few days there has been no place to comment..I am not sure if ANT turned off that section of it.

BEDBUG!!! What is your plan for the January Challenge? I need some ideas to get my butt in gear.

I feel guilty for having so much joy on a day that should be solemn. Bless Richard today, and ANT, too, for the pain that remembering brings. I hope he knows how much we love him and that he is never really alone.
I can't help but feel that Richard might have had a small hand in my joy. I know he wants ANT to be happy, and he wants us to be able to be with ANT whenever possible so we can show him our love and let him know he's not alone.
Well, I popped over to the other web site and noticed that ANT is going to be in Erie, Pa., on Dec. 4, and that is sooooooo do-able for me! Just a couple hours drive from here. I immediately called the place to get tickets, and of course they didn't have any information yet. And then I called Mr. BedBug to make sure he'd take the next day off work so we could stay out late for the drive home. And then I called both daughters to see if they (and my son-in-law) can come. I am so excited and so looking forward to another one of ANT's precious hugs!
A big ol' snowstorm is the only thing that would screw this up, so it's time to make peace offerings to Mother Nature.

"I hope he knows how much we love him and that he is never really alone."
.
Robin..I know ANT is feeling the love and support from so many today.

"I am so excited and so looking forward to another one of ANT's precious hugs!"
.
I'm so excited for you!!! It's only a few weeks away. LOAing perfect driving weather.

Hi Steph :)

(((Ant))) Hope today is a day of reflection and peace for you and that you know how much you are loved. ♥

HI DAWN!!!! ♥♥♥♥ Going to take a picture of that sign to show you in just a few minutes. Hugs!

HI TERI!!!! I am still trying to sneak in a Dexter viewing, lol! Hope you are doing well! ♥♥♥♥

((((STEPH)))) ♥♥♥♥ The boys are doing pretty good! :) Searching for the right kind of neurologist for my 6 year old right now, but continuing to be optimistic about it all. My freshman is turning into a man and I am sort of mad at him for it, lol! The nerve! :) Thanks for asking. How are your guys doing?

thank you

Question?
.
Should we be acknowledging the anniversary of Richard's death if ANT is not?
.
I just think he is acting weird with us now?
.
Is it just me? Maybe I'm just seeing what I fear?
.
I think we need more face time!


COLEEN!
Thank you so much for the hot chocolate with a shot of Kahlua and dollop of whipped cream! I had forgotten about hot chocolate! It has gotten so COLD in Oklahoma this week!
.
Maybe I should open up the Colony Kitchen with Vanny??? Been a long time since we made breakfast for the Colony.
.
Nancy you've done such a great job over this past year with the Memory candles for Richard ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

ERIN...my boys are good. Kinder kid is a smarty pants and amazing me every day. My 3 year old is a handful and a riot....makes me laugh constantly. All is well with us. Awaiting clearance to take 3 year old to allergist. Trying to figure out why he is thrown into respiratory distress whenever he gets a cold.
