Red Lobster has cheddar biscuits. They get my vote.
DH brought me home lobster bisque and blackened grouper from a seafood restaurant that was next door to where he was getting his oil changed. He is my hero.
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

I am snakebit w. my SiL gift. I bought a couple of little ornanments to fill out her gift, forgot them. Replaced those w. another ornament today, dropped it and it broke. That does it, she's getting a Tim Horton's gift card.

Matt, Lobster is a christmas tradition around here as it's in season. But I won't tell you how much they're selling it for on the side of the road.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Is it Red Lobster that does salt-baked potatoes? That was delicious.
I'm watching White Christmas, and figure if I get everything neatened tonight, dealing with the floor tomorrow morning will be fine. And also making the apps. I bought the veg tray and have made the dip already.

Hey Plei -- I'm not going to comment on your post, but know that I am thinking negative thoughts toward your sister. FWIW.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Ha! Well, I've told her I'm not going to comment on my post, too, but I may or may not have been on the phone with her when I saw it and given her a five minute lecture on how it's not a competition, how it doesn't actually help to focus on how much worse other people have it, and how I've spent thousands of dollars unlearning the crappy coping mechanisms we both have.

Also, I reminded her it was more than one friend, that my kid was in the damn PICU, and some other crap, too.

The cheddar biscuits were indeed wonderful and I am pleasantly full. I have to admit though, that I needed the reminder that our local Red Lobster is actually kinda sub-par for the chain. Outback grills up tastier lobster and other shellfish, though of course not with as much variety.
I guess it's my day for good-but-not-as-good-as-it-should-have-been food. For lunch I got a chicken salad croissant from the juice bar that's just opened next door to me, and while it was fine it didn't turn out nearly as good as the description sounded.

I mean, obviously not the bad stuff! The other stuff! Sheesh, Jesse.
