TeenBiscuit

I finally got MrBiscuit to put pics from our May California trip on my computer. We're both such slackers about that sort of thing. I'm going to swallow my pride and post these even though I'm about 10 pounds heavier in them. I can't resist posting pics of TeenBiscuit! She lives with her dad, my ex, in Cali. The Biscuits flew there to see her and MrBiscuit's sons, who attend uni in that state as well. Oh yeah, and we went to Disneyland too. MrBiscuit's father kindly chauffeured us about. He's a gem! LittleBiscuit and TeenBiscuit, wearing a shirt I sent her, who are meeting for the first time: TeenBiscuit with her signature anime character hand gesture, eating at The Cheesecake Factory in The Grove: LittleBiscuit is already hating all this picture-taking nonsense: Pics in Chinatown (Forget about it, Jake): Sun Yat-sen and Biscuitgirls: (See those jeans LittleBiscuit is wearing? Those are above her ankles now! She's grown a lot this year! And TeenB is rocking her new threads from our Gap spree.) Mama and TeenBiscuit (no, I'm not pissed off...the sun is in my eyes and I'm blind!): TeenB in a cheongsam and shoes we found in Chinatown: Hanging in the hotel (TeenB in another Chinatown score): Chillin' with D (MrBiscuit's son and my illustrious Theatre Biscuitstepson), TeenB, my huge butt and LittleBiscuit, hiding from the camera. Not a good angle for any of us except TeenB, who is practicing her cute poses: We were too busy to get many Disneyland pics until the second day, which means we missed all the pics of D Biscuit and M Biscuit and D's friend, Andy. We all had a blast! But here are a few from the following days: MrBiscuit there on the left and LittleBiscuit attempting to free the Sword from the Stone: TeenB gives it a try: Jalopy race: LittleBiscuit looks ready to murder someone but honestly, it's only because she's forgotten her sunglasses. She, like me, hates that blasted sun in her eyes: Sisters, sisters, never were there such devoted sisters: Um, yeah: LittleBiscuit is doing the camerawork on this one: ToonTown: It's a Small World After All. Also, check out TeenB's Corpse Bride T-shirt: MamaBiscuit got kind of emotional on the ride, most likely due to That Song being played over and over and over and over...It's been known to bring many a stalwart visitor to tears. More fun to be had: And finally, TeenB and her man, G:

Have yourself a Merry Biscuit Christmas...

...make the Yuletide, er, um, Pokemon. First, here are some pics of ornaments we made using a kit from M & S. Best of all? These are chocolate! You can eat them when Christmas is done...or before that, if you are really jonesing. Now, for the Poketree: Close up of the Pokemon who've magically gathered at the bottom of the tree: LittleBiscuit insisted that Ash's starting Pokemon be at the top, with Pikachu in pride of place as our angel. As we decorated, we listened to Pokemon Christmas Bash. Of course. Could it be any other way?

Wasting away in Biscuitville

Every other Wednesday, I get together with women from all around the world. We call ourselves the Housewives Club, Not Desperate. Three women from our group are going back home. One to the US, one to Canada and one to Australia. Last Wednesday, we all got together at El Bodeguita for some mojitos and laughs. Note: I like candids so most of these are not posed and not neat. I ordered a goat cheese salad with roasted pine nuts over spinach, followed by spicy meatballs and rice: A picture of the waitress taking a picture. Look at all our drinks! From left to right, this is Yvgenia (from Moscow), Jennifer (Australia) and Macky (Phillipines). Notice Macky's manicure? She did those beautiful nails herself! Jennifer is a lady who can dance her ass off. She's amazing on a dance floor. And Macky is a lot of fun. She keeps us all laughing. And I'd hate to be against her in a dance-off! She rocks. Lizl, on end left (from South Africa), is pregnant so her drink is virgin :) Genia, on the other hand, across the table on the right, is sucking down her mojito! Go, girl! Jen, in the middle (from Canada), expounding on the meaning of life and mojitos with Jill (from the US) on the left. Jennifer and Macky: Jennifer and Biscuitmom: What lurks behind that sweet face? Innocence? I think not! Isn't she lovely, though. I call her The Peach. I asked Genia to make a sexy face for my husband and THIS is what she gives me! After this, Jill, Jen, Macky and I went dancing til 2:30 in the morning. It was a blast! I love these ladies! We're goint to have one more HWC dinner before the end of the year, to say goodbye to Jen, Jennifer and Jill. They will be missed! In other news, here's your average day in Prague on my street. Lady dressed like a sperm giving away free condoms while a drum group rocks out some tunes: God, I love this city.
