I was thinking of watching the game but didn't. Glad I didn't now.

The game was actually a nail biter. Sloppy at times, but hard fought by both teams. Neither one could get the upper hand. A couple of missed field goals, four interceptions (split evenly), and two misfires by MU down around the goal line.

The NCAA is sure to bring the heat. This wasn’t the only game where there was extracurricular activities after the game…just the highest profile. I see a heavy hand coming down, but honestly, this starts with the coaching staffs.

Anyhow…hope everyone had and is having a great long weekend. Sat by the fire last night in the 32ish chill! (0c for our European members) came in and watched a quirky film Ameile’. Formula 1 on tap for this morning and then back off to moms to finish off any leftovers that might be hanging around.

Now..the long countdown to the fat man…SinterKlauss, Der Weinachtsman, Pére Noél, Dedt Moroz, La Befana, Kriss Kringle, and Father Christmas (love that Kinks song)…take your pick! The MZ: Black Forest winter…

Im usually very supportive but the mention of these cookies is an eye rolling event

Morning Mrs. Wonderer it's a pleasure to meet you. I hope you enjoy your time here as well as everyone here. I'm the quiet one of the group, although occasionally I enjoy batting practice while I'm here. Hope you enjoy your stay and don't hesitate in reaching out should you have any questions, or concerns.

We’re talking about football violence. Probably pretty tame compared to UK standards!

I like fruit cake... what makes it Scottish?

It may be an assumption but is it soaked in alcohol?

My grandma would make fruitcake in September and then wrap in a tea towel and soak with brandy.... and keep on adding brandy..... until xmas.... my mom said was delicious

scotch for sure

Our connection with the past. Me it's lasagna, fudge, bread.... All of them I must avoid but I do remember

 

[likes2watchU]

Morning/nearly afternoon all of you.
It's a sleeping in day here. Woke with bad headache at 5am. Letting some drugs kick in, and maybe having a lazy day, except maybe dealing with some more snow, again (still???) ( It hasn't stopped since Thursday... ).

Hope the extra sleep did the trick - or let the medicine do its thing.

Yep. Sleeping in, and some drugs, and a bit of caffeine knocked it back. Back to my ornery old self again! LOL
