ABC Meme

Nookie said I forgot the cheese. I just needed to find inspiration. In honor of the Top Chef finale tonight, I'm serving the cheese Miguel couldn't pronounce to save his life: Fourme d'Ambert Cheese. You might not like this strong french cheese, but I've laid out some good crostini to go with it.

Testes toss? *gigglesnort*

LOL at your harmonicas. Aren't you the crafty girl.

Maybe you could dance while I play my special harmonicas. Oh yeah, we like to party.

Schnookie said...

Or better yet, I'll play my accordion. Now, who can we get to play the spoons?

Schnookie said...

Wait a minute?

Where's the cheese???

kim (weltek) said...

Darn, you noticed. I was feeling uninspired by cheese this morning. I'll think about it & whip something up.

Schnookie said...

There you go. The world is all in order now.

It just wouldn't be the same around here if you weren't cutting the cheese for us. :-)

Schnookie said...

Now, do explain this testes toss thingy LOL.

Jen said...

Snickers pie? *drool*
Do you have my address? *grin*

~Nutz said...

I'm just here for the peppercorn beef tenderloin. *grin*

Surveysez said...

Love the harmonicas, but think what you could do with a kazoo.

Bravie said...

I drink Cosmos too. I guess that's what we'll be drinking when I see you in November. *grin*

Ok, testes toss:

It's a ~3 "ladder" (ours is made of pvc pipe). You stand back and throw a contraption of two golf balls attached with about a 1' rope section. You try to hook the balls around the rungs on the ladder.

Sounds like a deadly game.

Do the men wear jockstraps?

Spoons!

When I was around 25 I wanted to take a class on playing the spoons! I just thought it would be the coolest thing to know. Very impressive bar trick and such.

Then Soundgarden's "Spoonman" came out and it was so "in". So I gave up my dream.

Schnookie said...

My dad would play the harmonica and the spoons at the same time. Of course, being a kid, I thought he was the biggest dork ever LOL.

I would try to play the spoons, but more often then not, I would just decide it was better to eat some pudding.
