Happy Hump Day - and Head To Maria's

Happy Hump Day.  I'm over at Maria Zannini's DIY Christmas today sharing a family favorite recipe.  Hop on over and check it out.  Leave me a comment so I won't feel lonesome.




But I can't leave you without a little something to help you over the hump so here's a sign of the times.

This is the story of the Nativity - electronic style.






Have to toss this one in, too. 
Finally, a Microsoft Windows message we can use.





Have a happy hump day.  Don't forget to stop by Maria's


Groaner of the Day: A guy goes to his dentist for a checkup.  After a brief examination, the dentist exclaims, "Holy Smoke! That plate I installed in your mouth about six months ago has nearly completely corroded! What on earth have you been eating?"

"Well, the only thing I can think of is... my wife made me some asparagus about four months ago with this stuff on it - Hollandaise sauce, she called it - and doctor, I'm talkin' DELICIOUS! I've never tasted anything like it.  So for the past four months I've been putting it on everything...meat, fish, toast, vegetables, you name it - I'm eating it with Hollandaise sauce!"

"That's probably it," replied the dentist. "Hollandaise sauce is made with lemon juice, which is acidic and highly corrosive. It seems as though I'll have to install a new plate, but made out of chrome this time."

"Why chrome?" the man asked.

"Well, everyone knows that there's no plate like chrome for the Hollandaise!"

(I'm so sorry.)

Off to visit you at Maria's!

PS...I almost spit out my bran flakes reading your groaner. ;)

Happy Wednesday! ☺

Oh no - not the bran flakes!

Sarah Ahiers said...

HAH! I'm not sure what was funnier, the groaner or your tacked on apology at the end.
I've already been over to Maria's today, so no worries there

THANK YOU for the digital Nativity!

Sarah - Sometimes I feel I'd better apologize or risk being threatened with violence.

LD Masterson said...

Robert - Glad you liked it.

Angela Brown said...

Loved your recipe over at Maria's blog.

And yes, I'd like some wine, Microsoft. I really would.
