I don't know....maybe you need more than 2 quarts of rum...I mean, you want to be SURE it's of the highest quality.
Too funny, Gina! I'm going to link to it, if you don't mind.
and the tonscisticity has to be just right, too
Great, Claire, you can link anytime! :)
Gina, I've got you listed in my sidebar but when I click on it my own blog keeps coming up. *ACK* I keep going in and checking it on the template and it looks just like all the rest (which they all work). Do you have any idea what I might be doing wrong? I am so computer illiterate, it's pathetic. Thanks for any help you can give me.
Well, as long as you click on it from my sight and it gets you there then it must be right. I don't know what's messed up for me. All the other ones work. So that's good to know it DOES work! Thanks for checking it out! :)
I fried this lecipe. Exchelent schtuff.
Hardeee, har...har!
Here is another one in the same vein;
A preacher was raving about the evils of alcohol and said;
We ought to take all the beer barrels to the river and smah them open and dump them in the river.
The congregation shouted "Amen!"
We ought to take all the bourbon and whisky down to the river, smash open their barrels and dump them in the river!
The congregation shouted "Amen!"
The preacher turned the service over to the song leader for the closing song.
Open you hymnals and we shall sing "Shall we gather at the river."
What a hoot, Jer! rofl
Hi Gina,thank`s for that recipe-it`s hilarious! But I better don`t try this one out-Rum or any Alcohol for that matter and I are not on friendly grounds.peter
Exactly, Peter. Alcohol and I do not get along, either. As I said, I'm not at all advocating consuming alcoholic beverages. Perhaps we could look at this as what happens when we over indulge!
