The Ghoulies are taking off the pounds in February!!! (Page 61)

We're living inverse lives.  I grew up in the south and knew nothing about snow.  I've been in NJ for about 10 years now and have learned to *love* the upsides of winter.  I got the snow shoes from my sister who now lives in VT (serious snow country).  Cross-country ski's are next.

(until I retire in SoCal.....soon I hope)

It's a deal! I'll make sure to bone up on my veggie-dish repertoire for Kim and my Paleo menu for you as well. Any thoughts on what music we should have playing? I was thinking maybe some Chris Isaac/Jack Johnson type stuff. Very beachy

Well, as I tell all my friends....don't overthink my food neuroses.  I'll eat what I'll eat and I won't starve anytime soon.  Time with good people trumps all.  I like both Chris Isaac and Jack Johnson.  We can do some dance moves to both that will definitely embarrass your children.

kcarroll - 2010-02-10 7:03 PM OK gang.  Sorry to sign out but I need to call my niece.  She actually wants to speak *live.*  That rarely happens.  If I'm there, she occasionally speaks. Mostly we text.  She's 14, that pretty much sums it all up.

Check in later.   Tom, thanks for the dinner and dancing.  Stacie, keep the party going.

iowagander - 2010-02-10 7:02 PM OK ladies - time to go change and get dinner going. It'll be ready in about a half hour/45 min. The door will be open, so bring your wine and iPods (since I'm fresh out of Lady Gaga on mine) and come on over. Be sure to grab any Ghoulies you happen to see on your way too!

I like that Dee! I'll definitely be borrowing that one.

GREAT pic Kim - Makes me miss the snow! I love how peaceful it can be on a still day right after a nice snowfall.

I've been a passenger since I was a toddler. I had uncles with motorcycles growing up so I was always going on rides. My husband picked me up for our first date on his motorcycle, it took us an hour and a half to get to Gettysburg, which is only a 20 minute drive, we took the scenic route.

One of my favorite things to do is to go out riding on Sunday afternoons. Just riding around with no time limit, nowhere in particular that you have to be, nobody to answer to, just having fun.

I've only been in one accident and it wasn't too bad. My husband laid the bike down on some loose gravel when we were going up a hill. I messed up my knee, ripped up a hand and my elbow, but got back on the bike and we rode home.

About 3 years ago I got tired of being the passenger, since we didn't go much anymore and decided I was ready to be the driver. I bought a little Honda Rebel, had that for a little over a year then sold it. Then a friend of mine was going to sell this one, she knew it was my dream bike so she gave me a really good deal on it. I love her, my friend and my motorcycle.

givemashot - 2010-02-10 3:55 PM Well hello, everybody!! I am back from California. I won't say it was sunny, because, well, it wasn't all that sunny. Disney was fun, the kids were soooo happy. My 7 year old cried when the plane took off to come back home. He wanted to stay in California. He says he knows where he wants to live when he grows up (so he can go to Disneyland every day...). Sweet, huh?

In the good weather, I  LOVE to go for a motorcycle ride!  I'm with you on the country roads with no particular time limits.  My bike is an old Honda Rebel 450.  They only made the 450s for a couple of years back in the 80s.  I sure do like it!
