Bar None

[Zydekitten]

Now that we're in the final throes of pre-Fest preparation frenzy, it was felt that a new tavern/gathering place needed to be opened and in the spirit of all that is Threadhead and Jazzfest - we'd like to present to you:

Bar none . . .

To celebrate and spread the love of Freestyledesign and all that is Jazzfest - we want to create a place for not only the Threadhead Nation, but for all those who march to the beat of a different drummer (or bassist).

Enter and enjoy!!!

ya gotta come by Ibjamn's for breakfast one morning :) It sounds gross but is WAY better than tomato juice...it's clamato-clam and tomato but zero fishy taste. Thinner and tastier and perfect with vodka!

[Amyloves...]

You with the rolling tummy in the cracklin thread are gonna talk to me about drinking clam juice this early in the morning? I had to stifle a gag.

[dumbtourist]

Wow, I peeked in here about an hour ago...nothing but a mess...even found a body under a table....not to worry...just snoozing....but now, two pretty ladies in the house and the bloodies are a flowing....now this I could get used to! Morning, ladies!

[Corona]

Amy- I'm telling ya, you would have NO idea that it has anything to do with clams. Actually that's all we drink at Jenn's now....clamato instead of mary mix...it's WAY WAY better!

[Lester_leaps_in]

Hey, I really like this new place.

It's a little early for me, and I've never had a clamato, but I think I'd like one now.

How do you get juice from a clam BTW? Put the little suckers in a blender?

Nothing that ugly --- it is just the strained juice from when they are shucked.

Of course, here in Canada where we drink these things, we don't think about that -- we just buy the clamato juice where the dirty work has already been done for us.

Clamato is a popular mixer for mass-market American and Canadian beer. It is also used as a base for the alcoholic Bloody Caesar, a vodka cocktail invented in 1969 when bartender Walter Chell was challenged to create a new cocktail to celebrate the opening of Marco's, the new restaurant at the Westin Hotel in Calgary, Alberta. The Bloody Caesar is commonly regarded as the national cocktail of Canada. [2] While the original Caesar, invented the year Duffy-Mott introduced Clamato, was made with tomato juice and mashed clams, Clamato (properly referred to as "Mott's Clamato" in Canada) is now the common base for the drink. The Caesar has become so popular that Mott's now markets multiple varieties of pre-mixed Caesars in 341 ml (12-ounce) bottles. The Bloody Caesar is Canada's most popular cocktail, with over 250 million selling every year[3]. 82% of the Caesar-drinking households in Canada use Mott's Clamato as the base.

That's your lesson for today :)

Hey, I'll take one of those eye-opening Bloody Caesars.

Another good is the Danish Mary, made with Aquavit instead of Vodka and a few extra crushed Caraway seeds.

Thank you, baby.

Actually, I went off the diet tonight. I got invited to this all black wedding (there was one white guy there and he was one of the groomsmen!) and we had a blast. They had this kid playing a sax at the ceremony and it was soooo nice. The reception was fun and of course, the food was kicking. It was fun seeing all the guys in their pimp daddy suits and watching them dance. Chicklet was out on the dance floor with the other kids. Even the little flower girls had french pedicures. The bride and groom had an hour left on the Navigator limo so the mother of the bride asked me and another friend of ours to go riding in the limo with her as she's never been in one before. lol, you should have seen us riding down McFarland to go buy some more cabernet.

[pokerchick66]

Okay, the Easter Bunny has come. My work is done. Good night.

Hey, the Easter Bunny will f**k you up (apparently) . . .

Watch out and have a wonderful Easter (which is a pagan holiday, lest we forget) with PB and your other brothers (and sisters) from the same mother!!!

:D

[Corona]

Happy Easter kids!!!! We have a long day of house hopping ahead of us......Have a great day!!!!

[ScoopJohnD]

Why wasn't I informed about this new establishment? Sheesh. Could I have a cup of coffee and a report on Chicklet's Easter Egg Hunt please?

[ScoopJohnD]

I am officially losing it. I tore up the refrigerator last night looking for a stick of butter. Nothing. Go out this morning to shopping, get my butter open up the fridge and there's a stick as plain as f%&king day right in front on the top shelf.........might be time for the Shady Acres Rest Home for ol Scoop. :)

[pokerchick66]

Why wasn't I informed about this new establishment? Sheesh. Could I have a cup of coffee and a report on Chicklet's Easter Egg Hunt please?

Aw Scoop, the chicklet wasn't having none of it yesterday. It was so freaking cold here, she just stood there and said she wasn't running to get eggs. lol, she ended up strolling over and picking up FOUR eggs. I was so mad at first but then I just had to laugh. The Easter Bunny took good care of her, though.

Here's coffee:

Me and the EB are tight. He knows I'm kidding and I'll cherish my butter.

Any talk of EB and all I can think of Bugs Bunny and the cartoon where he gets duped in the subbing for the Easter Rabbit and is given his instructions to hand out the eggs and be happy. He gets terrorized for the entire cartoon and by the end he's stalking down the street with his Easter basket, scowl on his face practically spitting out the lyrics of his Easter Song in his Brooklyn accent....

"I am da Easter Rabbit, hooray........da happy Easter Rabbit........hooray"

Youse guys are cracking me up this Easter morning!!! (LMAO) Hey, tarbender - could I have one of those yummy Bloodys too (I could use a little hair o' the pup)?

We colored our eggs last night (and they turned out beautifully, I must say) for our Easter Egg/Scavenger Hunt later today.

The weather out here is beautifully sunny and should be in the 60's - it was cool and cloudy/rainy yesterday.

"The first house the "joyous bunny" visits bears a name by the door: "Dead End Kid", and the mean little red-haired kid who lives inside throws the egg at Bugs' face, bites him and beats Bugs up"

All the kid does is stalk around with a hammer going "aoneadesedays, aoneadesedays, aonedesedays".

I'm cracking up here thinking about it.

I'm not really sure....Grandma brought it over...I know that she cooked down some onions, I didn't really ask, just ate 'em :D I do know that they were $3.99/pound...MIL likes to talk...
The two meat thing is funny because one of the Rosebuds declared himself a vegematerian last week...

[ScoopJohnD]

And you all are killing me with the dinner talk. (neighbors pounding on wall telling me turn down that damn growling stomach)

[rosetree]

Tangie:
We did talk about just cooking down some onions and adding the okra and some Rotel tomatoes...quick and easy......

I also got a recipe for ya....just google smothered okra!

Ingredients:

2 qt. fresh sliced okra
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper
1/4 cup diced garlic
3 cups diced tomatoes
1/2 cup hot water
Salt and cracked black pepper
1 dash red hot-pepper sauce
Directions:
Heat oil in a 4-quart saucepan over medium-high heat. Sauté okra, onion, celery, bell pepper and garlic approximately 30 minutes or until okra stops stringing. Okra will become slimy during this process and should be stirred constantly until stringing ceases. Add tomatoes and hot water; bring to a low boil and cook approximately 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Season with salt, pepper and pepper sauce.

Good and I have everything I need in the house already for that recipe. Thanks RT. Two meats and I will have just some veggies please. Both of my nieces are strict vegans and they get grossed out by the big slabs of meat on my plate.

Thanks baby, I'll be cooking here, little pasta with broccoli, sausage, garlic and olive oil. And some wine.

It's that between meals dilemma.....don't want to eat alot now and and then cook dinner at 9 or 10 but I'm also hungry. Maybe I'll cook the hard boiled egg and do that Easter Toast to tide me over.

[ScoopJohnD]

We're about to go have salmon, asparagus, mashed potatoes, spinach salad and fruit tart for our Easter dinner - yum, YUM!!! :)

[dumbtourist]

Happy Easter to all you TH's also. Have been busy making the most unusual Easter Dinner we ever had....Surf & Turf. Never tried that for Easter before, but damn good....fresh grilled lobster tails and wonder filet steaks, asparagus, salad, french bread, boiled jumbo shrimp, baked potatoes, lots of cocktails, red and white wine, after dinner drinks....wow....what a great dinner, with the ST, YT, DT and some real good friends....can't get better that that...except maybe with TH's at JF????

Hope all of you had a great day, and look forward to seeing many of you soon.

Hoppy Easter!

Yum, DT!!! That sounds about as good as our dinner was . . . we ended up having the salmon with a dijon mustard sauce that I made, basmati rice, mashed potatoes, really good bread, spinach salad, steamed asparagus, champagne, red and white wine, fruit tart and easter bunny cookies and after-dinner liqueurs with family and some excellent friends . . . indeed, can't get better than that except maybe with the Threadhead Nation at Jazzfest! :)

[pokerchick66]

Excellent dinner, dt. I'm very jealous! :D


Okay, I'm sitting here freezing my butt off; what is it with this freaking weather? Brrrrr . . . I'm making some hot chocolate.

We had a white Easter, and it's snowing again today.

Is this friggin' snow ever gonna stop?

[pokerchick66]

I would love to go shopping but it's too cold to go out!

I had planned on laying out today.

[bluedog]

I'd LOVE to get the kids outta da house! They are making me batty! It's spring break & it's r**ning! I guess I'd better keep my trap shut we desperately need the h2o from the clouds and it could be worse ... I could be in snow:eek:

[Zydekitten]

Man, we would SO love it to rain/snow out here - as we have our lowest water table levels in twenty years and we're probably due for another drought.

My folks' well went dry last week and they had to order 4,500 gallons of water . . . we're all praying that they won't have to drill another one (which runs about $8,000 -$10,000).

Only problem is it's PBS so it's not on at the same time and day everywhere like Idol.

[Orleansnj]

Scoop - I love watching this show because it is so insane. Did you happen to see the episode where the guy brought in a weathervane that he had purchased some time ago - it had all of the original paperwork. It was very nice -but sit down - it was worth over half a million dollars. I jumped out of my chair and said 'wtf' about half a million times..... a barn ornament worth half a million.

Actually - he had a great reaction - he was totally psyched and you could tell that as soon as the camera stopped rolling he was going to say 'okay - so how do we get this ball rolling - I'm willing to sell'. It was one of the few times that I saw someone just think cha ching......

Hubby read last week that CSI Miami is the most watched TV show in the world. That makes David Caruso --- the biggest TV star in the world! :confused:

Of course, a few years ago, that position was held by David Hasselhoff, so I guess it isn't all that impressive. ;)

I'm not dropping anything. It's a just show that goes to various cities and people bring stuff they had in their family or like I said bought at a flea market for a quarter and get them appraised. It's a hoot.

[ScoopJohnD]

Cool - do I get to keep the glass then?? ;)

Sure, I got plenty o treasures in the old apartment here. A couple of antique socks, I'm sure some leftovers in the fridge that date from the Ming Dynasty. Look for me when the Roadshow visits beeeutfiul Joisey City.

[sophisticated sissy]

Cool - do I get to keep the glass then?? ;)


Sure! ..whoopsie...oh, NO...now it's worthless because I just accidentally smashed it with a hammer that once belonged to my uncle.:( But it turns out that the hammer was originally owned by Noah and it may have been used to construct the Ark. It's worth about fourteen bazillion dollahs!
So, we can still keep dinkin', I guess.

[Orleansnj]

Scoopy - I bet you have some fine antiques like we do - some of that first edition Glad ware.....now - just think - in a few years that might fetch the same $$ as early Fiestaware..... especially the cobalt and early reds.....

The poison oak is getting better, although not quite fast enough . . .

I've got $1175 so far and I think I'm still number one, but I will be sending out another round of e-mails to folks who haven't pledged yet - unlike all my wonderful Threadhead Nation fambly, y'all are MUCH more giving than my other so-called friends (hmph!) . . .

tell you what - if the little guy is worth money I'll sell his a$$ and buy us a beer.

So sophisticated sissy - if you know anything about these things (and I clearly don't) this thing has a tag on it saying it was 'born on 8-1-95) so I guess he/she/it is a first generation thing..... let's see if we can get beaucoup $$

Great job on the fundraising, zydekitten! I've been involved in one for the chorale group's Chicago trip this month. Raised about $6,000.00 so far, so it looks as if everyone can go!

Sold - where's the f*&#$ beer?

[sophisticated sissy]

Well, I'd say if it was in Scoopy's old sock, crammed into an empty Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia carton, it would be an easy 50 big ones.


Then, we could afford a couple more rounds...

You should have seen me walking out of the grocery story. I opened the bag before I made it out the door. I was smiling from ear to ear.

The bag is empty now. Thank God Chicklet was around; otherwise, I would have eaten the whole bag by myself.

Want one? Oh, that's right, the bag is empty.

Hello form the beach

[mdfest]

LOL- im workin. Ripped apart a bathroom today, just fixed a leaky toilet. Id replace the battery in the beeping smoke detector downstairs, but its my annoying neighhbors- they can fix it themselves.
Debating getting on the bike and getting a cheesesteak. sounds like a good idea right about now.

[withbellson]

Now that we're in the final throes of pre-Fest preparation frenzy, it was felt that a new tavern/gathering place needed to be opened and in the spirit of all that is Threadhead and Jazzfest - we'd like to present to you:

Bar none . . .

To celebrate and spread the love of Freestyledesign and all that is Jazzfest - we want to create a place for not only the Threadhead Nation, but for all those who march to the beat of a different drummer (or bassist).

Enter and enjoy!!!

http://i117.photobucket.com/albums/o67/Zydekitten/happy-kitten.jpg

Tony and I definately march to a different beat...but Tony got no rythym...just joking he's not here so I can do that! Still counting down the days to meet the TH's...I am soooo excited!!!

[pokerchick66]

lol, well I asked two of our patrons if I could get them something to drink and I got no response. :(

Guess I'll have to drink all by my lonesome.

[dumbtourist]

I'll dink with ya...the wife and I just got back from seeing Blue Man Group...good JF training...all hoarse from yelling, sore from all the jumping up and down (Concert move #3) and clapping, etc. And damn sober...those earlier dinks sure didn't last too long!

[pokerchick66]

I had to skip one day of bike riding because of the ra*n and so I decided to do aerobics instead and it had a lot of squats in the workout. Now I'm not able to sit down.

[Montana]

So Mon, are you in awesome shape now?
Am I going to be sad that I didn't see you this year?

I don't think I've ever done so many squats I couldn't sit down...usually too many squats make me fall down.

[pokerchick66]

Bwahahahaha! Rest assured I am not in shape. I have been riding my bike every day for an hour but it's not really showing yet. Those 20 lbs. are kicking my butt this year. But I don't really care. I'm gonna keep on going till I get there if it takes me a year. lol, I keep telling myself it's all gonna fall off the day before fest. :rolleyes:

Feel better now? ;)

[pokerchick66]

Ooooh, I got way too ambitious. lol, you should see me try to sit down. Excruciating.
