fabulous friday. GNO talk and a little fun with F.R.I.E.N.D.S!
Um. GNO was surprisingly fun! we went to Create It. and i made a GIANT cappuccino mug. w love them for everything. mega amounts of hot chocolate, Cereal, or soup. the premise of Create It , is you get an plain piece of ceramic whatever, and paint it. then they glaze and fire it. MINE will be pink with black polkadots. not Fuchsia. but pink is close to perfect. and i ran out of time a little and felt rushed in the end. i'm slow like cold tar when i'm crafting. especially if i'm chatting. SO that is a little bit of a bummer. after that we hit a restaurant and Bar called Indigo Joe's . it had really great food! i was a totally surprised. i started out with dessert first, like all my nights out, it was a chocolate mousse cake and heavenly! and it was a nice firm mousse,with cake and a scoop of ice cream ! and then had the" FAB Fries". hello! what is more perfect for me? the fab fries were essentially fries loaded with cheese, and bacon and chives with ranch to dip. and yeah i know i have cheese issues but i will occasionally eat melted cheese. and this is one of the things i eat cheese on. it was delectable. and i was done by 11:30.
hello record early GNO. i hit walmart on the way home for a couple essentials but was really too tired to enjoy it. just grabbing socks for the morning. yeah i buy socks if there aren't clean ones and there isn't time to wash them. SHHH don't tell Lance. actually he could care less. and I'm replacing the holy ones we find and throw away lately. and this is way easier.
So while searching for a picture of a cappuchino mug (thinking like on Friends) i was looking for video.
and here we go no mugs in sight but loving it none the less. ROSS and RACHEL first and last kiss! WHOOHOOO!
AND i realize the background music sucks. try to ignore it.
i miss Friends! anyone else?
and here you go , you do see the mugs in this one
Happy Friday!

I miss friends, I love Phoebe. Remember Smelly Cat? I still sing that. I love to do ceramics, I used to go with my sister until I moved here. :[ Those fries sound FABULOUS!
i'm so needing some of that dessert and fries!! maybe i'll have to go to sonic for some cheesy fries to curb my craving!
i never watched friends when it was in season, but as i've seen the reruns i think it's great. but that is my life with tv watching- 2 of my fav. shows are no long airing and i only begun loving them once they were off the air- malcolm in the middle & arrested development.
our gno- we went to applebees. it was fun, but i'd love to have a group like yours that actually goes out to hang out, etc. i got the blondie brownie & icecream BUT i really wanted the chocolate one (i'm nursing and my sleep right now is so much more important than the chocolate!)wow, i thought i'd never hear myself say such things!!
happy friday to you!!
I have never been to one of those ceramics studios, but it looks like fun. I love big mugs. And I miss Friends a lot! I still watch it almost every day- either while working out or to relax at night. Best show ever!
Okay, first of all, YES I miss Friends. I didn't say this in my post about her, but Mindy looked and acted a lot like Pheobe. A LOT. Watching her always made me smile.
Love the glossary. I've wondered if people ever get confused by our lingo.
"slow as cold tar" made me laugh. I don't know why, it just did.
I seriously need a GNO and I am JEALOUS JEALOUS that you had another one!!!
I loved the Mug Footage! I do miss Friends, but I miss Seinfeld more.
Dude-you're right, That music BLOWS! What was it, Mariachi or some crap?
I knew all those were Mormon words. I can't believe how many Mormons are on here. Wow!
Yes, I made a plate at our ceramic place, the Mud Mill. I love it!
Yep-I entered. I love to see what the random thingy does. It gives me something to look for.
I have never ordered dessert first, but next time I go out I swear I'm doing it! Honestly Julie you think of the best stuff!!!!
Ceramics no--not interested--
Friends--totally. I miss laughing out loud at tv. Seinfeld was good for that too.
I have a question of a personal nature about kids. Email me if it's OK to ask you.
I love Create It. I made a an icecream dish, and painted it red with yellow polka dots. I have it sitting in my kitchen. I take my rings off when I am cooking sometimes. I use my little dish to hold my rings. It sounds like your mug is going to be super cute!!! I do miss friends. I still do watch the re-runs from time to time. :)
That is a record!! I can't believe that you guys were finished so fast!!
Have fun tonight! ;)
The Mug making sounds fun, never heard anything like it. I love that you got dessert first!! I think I should try that...I'm always too full after the meal. What you had sounded GREAT!
Fun Friends clips...I haven't watched it for a while. It was one of our wind down favorites, loved the reruns.
I haven't entered the contest, I guess I am confused about the rules. Better go read it again...
I love friends and just the other day Tom and I were watching and he said, I miss this show! Why did it have to end?? So there we both miss and love it. I haven't ordered dessert 1st but....I have JUST ordered dessert! Thanks for the tip on Ali, I'm going there nextÜ
1- Not entering contest....I don't want to risk being responsible for prizes when I have so many unfinished projects of my own laying around!
2- No dessert first....I'm very guilt-prone....that would just be wrong and knock my universe out of whack!
3 & 4- I love those ceramic studios! I've been a couple times...I need to take my kids again, they are getting to be a better age to enjoy it. My favorite project was a plate I painted and then I painted my baby's feet and "stamped" them in the middle of the plate.
5- I loved FRIENDS....the first few seasons....toward the end it was just not as funny, and I didn't have the time to watch it anymore.
Ok, Ok I know I have already talked to you in person today (that makes me special you know!), LOVE the ceramic mug idea bookmark that for my next birthday ;)! And love your glossary of definitions. I didn't watch Friends until later on, and if I do miss it it is on TBS ALL THE FREAKIN TIME, I only know because my hubby gives me crap about watching reruns. And dessert first? Only when I am doing dinner with you, then we all seem to do dessert first!
good idea about the glossary i forget that sometimes i may as well be speaking chinese when i use "churchy" words.
i miss friends too...we DVR everyday though...its fun to watch the reruns.
oh and i am lame...what is a GNO?
Glad you had a fun night. I need to start something like that. I have never been to a ceramics studio, but I have a gorgeous collection of mugs and pots and bowls that my kids have made in art at school. Oh sooo lovely! I quess I need to look more into your contest. I am not quite sure what I need to do!
You know since I've started blogging I have seen so many LDS moms blogging and I have come to know so much about the Mormon religion. It has been a real eye opener for me.
Thanks for the quick overview!
LOL I have been found guilty of buying new socks when the ones we got are all dirty or of course when the dryer eats them..you know there is a dryer monster...
The other day I had made hamburgers for lunch and then fixed them for the kids when they got home...And then like at about 7ish I made brownies...and the kids were like..MOM whats for dinner? I said Brownies and Ice cream and they got all excited...And so yes we had brownies and ice cream for dinner...So desert and no offical dinner.
♥ I've never ordered dessert first. Unless that's the only reason we go there for.
I've never been to a ceramics studio although it sounds like a lot of fun! I've always wnated to try my hand at it.
I have no idea what I'd make!
I totally miss friends!
That was a great GNO! I was kind of glad we ended early since I was up til 3 the night before.
I didn't watch Friends regularly, but the few episodes I saw were funny. I saw the Smelly Cat episode and sang that song every time I'd go feed the barn cats (when we had a barn!).
When I was about 19 or 20 I ran out of gas and this crazy old lady stopped and offered to take me to the gas station as long as I didn't mind stopping at her ceramics studio first. She was really nutty (her car was filled with old newspapers...why, I'll never know!) but she seemed harmless, so I went with her. She was a major ceramics crafter and the ceramics shop we went to was awesome. I've never done ceramics, though. I don't think I have what it takes to do ceramics well!
I entered the contest.
I have never ordered dessert first (yet)
Mmy mom did ceramics when I was a kid. I spent a good deal of time around ceramics.
I made a bunch of ceramics. I can't remember what.
I miss friends. I watch the reruns when my kids are not in the room.
What is the square root of 7,921?
I miss friends....sometimes I sneak the repeats in my bedroon when I'm supposed to be cooking dinner...my kitchen is next to the bedroom...cheeky huh?
GNO sounds like a blast! I love those kind of places where you can be all crafty by have fun with friends at the same time.....we lack the culture here in little town Idaho to do that.....so I'll live vicariously through you! :) I need to go and comment more!
Yes, I SO miss Friends!! I loved that Ross & Rachel first kiss! I remember being all misty eyed when I watched it the first time!! LOVED it!!
Oh, I need a GNO! I am totally Jealous you got a GNO and got to get crafty all on the same night! I am so missing out.
I love to shop at Walmart in the middle of the night. I did it even before I worked until 2 am. Have to admit it was funner when it was a want to shop late instead of a have to shop late or never. LOL
