Earworm swap thread

Thunder by Imagine Dragons has been stuck in my head for days. DAYS, people! DD keeps catching me humming the chorus, and she's had just about enough of it.

Willing to trade it in for someone else's earworm. Anyone care to share?

So... what's for dinner?

Every other Friday is pizza night at Chez NIK. Tonight's pizza is spinach, garlic, and tomato. My favorite.

What's on your menu?

I made a huge batch of pulled pork over the weekend, so tonight we're having carnitas. And they are utter perfection.

Lottery Dreams?

With the PowerBall jackpot currently sitting at a record $800 million, everyone seems to be talking about what they'd do if they won.

So, what would you do? Post your lottery dream here. No ticket needed to participate on the thread, but all dreams must be expressed with a picture rather than words.

I'll go first...

Things I actually had to say out loud this weekend...

"Fritos are not school supplies."

"If Pudge the miniature pony needs an email address, give him mine."

"Honey, please take the tampons away from the cat."

Dinner?

After decades of feeding people, I'm actually starting to enjoy cooking. It's less about filling stomachs now and more about exploring and trying new flavors and teaching myself new techniques. Fun!

I've got a largely improvised beef stew going in the slow cooker. It smells freaking fantastic, if I do say so myself. Can't wait to see how this dinner turns out.

What's cooking at your place this weekend?

Holiday Hang out Thread

Open bar, plenty of snacks, and good company. Stop in and relax. We're open 24/7.

Just a gentle reminder - this is an infidelity-free zone.

Word of the day?

The word of the day at Chez NIK is -

mercurial

mer·cu·ri·al

mərˈkyo͝orēəl/

adjective

(of a person) subject to sudden or unpredictable changes of mood or mind.

ex: DD16's mercurial temperament drove NIK to the brink of insanity.

What's the word of the day in your neck of the woods?

Cure what ails me

I'm totally pathetic today - afflicted with sneezing, sniffling, coughing, runny nose, watery eyes, and all around icky-ness. I clearly can't care for myself, and there's a distinct lack of sympathy among the local natives.

So, SI family - who's got the cure? Chicken noodle soup? Hot toddies? Please take virtual pity on my sickly self and serve up the secret that will get me back on my feet.
