1 - CYNDYLOUBIGWINNERGILLYSPITKIN:

It looks like we'll be spending most of our humorous moments at this Island.. seems like a pretty good place.

DANIELLEDESSERTQUEENGILLYSPITKIN;

You have a wonderful dessert table planned..and haven't missed much,, but I have to have cherry pie, with a flakey homemade crust and gobs of real whipped cream.

2 - FRENCH PANCAKES AKA CREPES:

Proceed cautiously if you are going to try that recipe.
It's old hand written recipes book and it had about three lines. I had to improvise and as Dr. Bill mentioned, it was changed a few times as I kept finding that I had not been very clear.

I personally rarely follow a recipe. I usually just play it by ear. (Comment this)

3 - DONNA'SBLINTZES;

I LOVE THEM!. I've never made them.

Will I find them on the dessert table along wit the mandelbread ? I will have the blintzes first and then
my favorite cherry pie with homemade flaky crust and gobs of whipped cream...then piece of mandelbread and then on to a taste of all the desserts that Danielle mentioned.

Since this is a cyber buffet, we never feel full and the calories, fats and carbs don't count!!!

BTW, The buffet has been moved here because a post about it there yesterday was considered "off Topic".

Can't wait to hear what's at the pasta table..and we can't forget the appetizers.

4 - KEEP YOUR EYES ON THE ROAD

In the land of 'I'm Depressed,'
It was a chore to do a test,
Then along came Gilly,
He made us act silly,
And, at last we were feeling our best.

We will follow that" yellow spit road,"
But, watch out..don't step on a toad,
We won't be defeated,
Let's not get deleted,
We must obey each Forum's set mold.

5 - There once was a gilly named Shari-
So clever and cutesy, Aye very
At the cyber buffet, she blows us away
With whipped cream, flaky crusts and pies cherry.

This Shari is quite a great cook
At her recipes she never takes a look
Cause she knows what to do to bake all for you
And that's even without using a book (Comment this)

6 - OH MY!

It's another sickeypoetylimerickygillyspitkin!!
That was great Donna! I did not deserve the praise, however.

About my baking..I never do, because you have to measure
and that never works when you prefer to play it by ear!

the second recipe came from a real cookbook.. the first one was just a three line scratch in ny favorites handbook. You are the pastry chef in lizard land so you won't have a problem even improving on it.

Where's Cindylougillyspitkin?

9 - DONNA;

Fume' tried to wake me at about three, but I put him off until five. Just got to the computer now...have to feed the five kitties , clean two giant litter boxes, and then put food more out for the poor suffering homeless kitties.
There was a skunk freeloader out there last night and a stragler Raccoon this morning ( He must have had insomnia.)

Well I'm here now. What's new in Lizard land? (Comment this)

12 - DONNA;

This Island just feels more comfortable. Lots of funny coconuts, akitties, limericks and just plain fun.

Fluffernutter sonds like she is a very precious sweetie.
Is she keeping her weight down? I have been warned about my oldest kittie, Phantom who is 17lbs. and at risk for feline diabetes. He is a big cat, but qverweight as well.
He loves food..who doesn't?

Hopefully Cindylou will be back with her southern bells on today.

I hope that other gillyspitkins who like to smile and give smiles, will join us here also..if they can navigate well.

Getting back to the kitties. My Fume'likes to eat organic romaine lettuce..just the greens part and he likes chopped carrots as well. Merlot, the other young one( they are one and a half year old siblings,)eats a little lettuce but also likes salmon as a treat.

Hopefully our kitty chat will go unbleaped at this Island.

13 - NOW BACK TO THE CYBER BUFFET;

We better not put anything out yet or it will spoil.
Watch out for those sour grapes!

Speaking of grapes..we need a fruit table for those of us that still can;t feel comfortable getting into those gooey, sugarie amazing desserts, even though they are made with cberspace ingredients.

So who can suggest some really exotic fruits etc.? (Comment this)

I think we are definitely the nuts! I think you just proved
that!

I think this is Island # 6 on that list of 23 over on the left after you finally navigate to the correct page.
Hope other silly gillys can find us.

Donna better show up,'cause she's our pastry chef, and Cindylou has to help me eat all that seafood. She better get here soon 'cause,I confess, I've been nibbling on some from the cyberfrige.

Never thought about coconut as a nut, but of course it is.. I guess it must be the biggest nut on earth..

32 - SHARI- We need edible decorations on our tables-flourless flowers, chocolate furniture and champagne. Keep those tables our of the hot FL sun or we will have fondued furniture that we can wrap around the strawberries. I would love some blueberry pancakes to go with that bacon. Do you mind if I have sausage instead? After a few sips of champagne I can get a gaggle of lizards together (or is that geese) for the electric slide. So boogie on down to breakfast/brunch for a heartstoppingtoetappingtumultuouspitkintime. (Comment this)

As long as we can have anything these people in their prime:

Glenn Miller Band
Aretia Franklin
Oh and I envited my mom so Tom Jones is a must

34 - BACON,SAUSAGE AND LEE GREENWOOD;

Donna, We'll have lots of bacon AND sausage!
Love the furniture, and who cares, it won't last long enough to melt anyway, we'll just keep replacing it. our supply of chocolate chairs will be endless! I can tell that you are having a difficult time waiting for "dinner
bell." We still need to fill that pasta table. For sure,
we have to have a huge bucket of cindylou's Italian sausage and Dreamfield's pasta dish..I know we can have the regular pasta at this buffet, but you can't even tell the difference. You are on that roll again, Donna,( or was it Danielle?) Anyway, don't forget you can EAT the roll too in cyberland.

Angela, Don't forget LEE GREENWOOD, and dibs on the first dance. He can end the celebration with his wonderful, acclaimed, " GOD BLESS THE USA. "

I used to do a real Island dance..the hula! But you definitely would not would not want to see me do it now.
Oh, wait a minute, if the entertainers are going to be as they "used to be" then why can't we too?

O.K., I'll do the Aloha dance at the end "as I used to be," so who will start the gillyspitkinasweusedtobeentertainment?

Hey Donna,
You have been too funny to be bleeped from
this humor island! Do you really think we need to watch out for the delete monster if we're not funny here? Nah,
that won't happen.

37 - Come back you guys. I can't eat at this pig-out party all by myself. My jaws are exhausted from all the chewing. Maybe I will get smarter and eat lizard style. Hope you don't mind if a few of my scales (not the weighing ones) fell in the ambrosia. My belly is so stuffed I can hardly walk. Guess I'll roll myself outside and look for you sillyhidinggillyspitkins in a palm tree. (Comment this)

Donna, there is not supposed to be any stuffing going on at this buffet, unless it's in a turkey. you need to close your eyes, click the higheeled sparkley red shoes together and say repeatedly, "I am a bottomless spit, I am a bottomless spit, I am a bottomless spit..."

Now go back and try some of that stuffed turkey and I'm sure all the trimmings are there too!

Couldn't answer you there. Had to come to an Island that is,so far.. safe from the delete monster.

Maybe Cindylou is lost on one of the islands, or hiding under one of the cyber buffet tables.Hopefully she is nearby...and will see this.

Maybe if we ALL close our eyes like Donna, Danielle and I are doing..click the red sparkly high heeled shoes together and say repeatedly, "Cindylou, come home, Cindylou, come home, Cindylou, come..."

Hopefully, if lots of missyoucindylousillygillyspitkins join in she will find her way back soon to the land of
"THE LIZARD OF AZ." (Comment this)

I think I'd like to hide under one of the chocolate chairs for a while! Sounds much better than my chicken spaghetti I am going to have for lunch.

42 - CHICKEN SPAGHETTI ?

Sounds like a lost chicken who ended up at an Italian buffet! Something like knowing which is the right island to go to and then actually getting there!

Just was reminded that the 'Red sparkly high heeled shoes' were the ruby slippers ! Of course, I knew that, my brain had misplaced that memory.. bg must have been too low! LOL (Comment this)

I'd gladly give up my turn w/the slippers.

SHARI -

I'll be offline until Tuesday. I'm off work on Monday and our dialup internet at home got too slow so we cancelled the service. We live WAY OUT in the country and it will never get better, and we were just wasting $$ every month on it. So, try not to miss me, and I'll be back on Tuesday morning. HOpefully I'll see some posts for Cindylou by then also.

XOXOX to all!

The pigtails too? What a sacrifice! Maybe that will do it,
