Potluck is back.
Back with a
vengeance…well,
vengeance in the nicest way.
SATURDAY NIGHT WAS AWESOME.
Seriously, if you are a DFW blogger and you were NOT at Grand Luxe – Galleria you missed out. 30 people who for the most part had never met each other were chatting like they grew up together. I love that about this community of blogging.
A fellow blogger is never a stranger.
In fact, as you can see by this picture, being in Canada wasn’t an excuse to miss the party:
I am going to keep up the RSVP list a little longer so I can make the rounds. There were several last minute RSVP’s so if you were there and your blog is not on the list, please let me know and I will add ya.
The whole evening was funny:
This is what I ate:
I know! I know! They have fancy food there, but I just felt like this.
I also got a
lesson in self-portraits. I have complained how horrible I am taking my own picture.
I was told the key was to have the camera higher than my face so you can avoid the up the nose shot:
So I tried again:
Much better.
I think I may need to do some additional practice on this technique.
I talked too much to get more pictures.
BUT I know that I posed for about 100 which brings me to another benefit of getting together with bloggers…they will blog about it.
So link up!

I have been getting quite a few hits from “plunging a low flow toilet” so I googled it myself to see where I was:
Oh ya, it is true. June Cleaver Nirvana is #1 and
Blog Nosh who ran that post is #2 in the plunging low flow toilets search results. I am creating quite a SEO niche for myself.
What is up with Holly’s coccyx?
I am doing well. Thanks.
Let’s find out who is Peep of the Week!
In response to Cleanliness is next to the Crazy Train:
carpet is the devil’s handiwork.
of course, loud echoey houses are the devil’s playground.
but at least it’s clean. –Janet
And in response to Holly goes to poker school:
That sounds awesome! I can’t play for chips and I wind up just eating them. –Weaselmomma
Veterans at Peep of the Week both of ’em. Congrats to Janet and
Weaselmomma for being this week’s Peeps!
What is in Holly’s fruit bowl?
7 bananas (none are over-ripe), 5 onions, 6 large baking potatoes, 4 navel oranges and a broken pencil decorated with Santas.
Now go hug a blogger today…
Heeeeeere’s Mr. Linky…

Heeeeeere’s Mr. Linky…
this is the fullest I’ve seen your fruit bowl! My goodness, I was about to send you a box of Idaho potatoes or something.
And I’m a little jealous that I’m not a DFW blogger.
What fun!
LOL, I have so many of those up the nose shots. But somehow, you still look gorgeous!
Looks like you all had a great time…who needs to wait for “Blog-Her”…
I’m still at the point where my “big” day out by myself involves the grocery store… 🙁
Happy fruit bowl!
Pax
I wasn’t feeling the internet love today and then I remembered it was Monday, which meant it’s Potluck Day, so I popped right over.
Knowing what’s in your fruit bowl perks me right up.
*MWAH*
And DAMN, I wish I could have been at that dinner.
Dude, I’m SO sending a life-sized cut-out of myself to your next meet up. At least the “Flat Colleen” would have fun!
Loving your self portraits, especially the one where I can totally see your eye shadow shade- cool!
And glad to know what you ate, I had no idea! HA!
It was a great time, thanks for being my co-host! : )
It looks like it was such a great time!!! And no snow anywhere, bonus!
Hey Holly, I had so much fun on Saturday it has taken me all weekend to put fingers to keyboard!! Sorry we didn’t get to hang out, however, I am told I make a killer pot of chai and a pretty fine palak paneer.. so come on over baby and you too can step over piles of toys and laundry!! Thanks for organizing! 🙂
Mmmm…pot luck burger. I too am jealous not to live in TX. MA is snow covered (sigh).
It was so much fun, thanks for hosting! Can’t wait until the next time!
