we keep moving the pie

Here’s a daylily from my garden.  We’re still in a heat wave so Denis and I went to the beach today. We decided to check out the new Santa Monica Place which just opened this month. It’s an outdoor mall right at the ocean.  The best part is the food court on the third level with a huge seating area right over the water. There are two department stores, Bloomingdales and Nordstrom and lots restaurants, shops and entertainment.  It’s a great destination and they have free valet parking for bikes! There’s also a huge central area for entertainment – we saw some hip hop dancers and cheerleaders. We had pizza, then came home and had pie.  I made apple pie for Denis yesterday and he likes it so much he can never wait to have the first piece, but it has to cool first or the apples come spilling out.  So I always put it on the cold granite counter to make it cool down faster. When that spot gets warm, we move the pie to a new cold spot, and we keep moving the pie around until it’s cold enough to eat.  Denis says I make the best apple pie in the world.  He doesn’t do a lot in the kitchen but he’s always willing to move the pie.

    Love the pie story…

    Last night my DH (Dear Husband) and I went to see Jeff Dunham at the Sprint Center in Kansas City. It was great…I heard this really strange sound then I realized it was my DH laughing…what a wonderful sound!! He hasn’t laughed like that in years!! We also went out for a steak dinner and to the casino too. We don’t date often so we always try to do it up right when we do go out! We are usually home before dark for some reason! I told him it is good to use our headlights sometimes just to be sure they aren’t burnt out!! LOL

    Hey Jenny can we upload photos in our messages to you or only on our friends page?

    One more thing…Pet Peeve….I am tired of seeing girl’s bra straps!! We used to pin ours to our dresses so no one could see them!! Cover up ladies…eeeewww!!

      Jeff Dunham is really fun. I love the terrorist guy. “I kill you!””
      You can email any photos to blogbuddies@jennyjones.com
      Ditto from me on the bra straps. And the guys’ droopy pants with boxer shorts coming out the top.

        Jenny, droopy pants are rediculious I see it alot and I’m just waiting when I see someone fall flat on their face. That sounds cold, but I hate seeing it as well. Plus it might teach them a lesson to keep their pants up. Ya think?…
        I like the terrorist guy also. My nephew has me in tears from laughing because he sounds just like “Acmed”…

        I dont know if you’ve seen this Jenny, but I find it hilarious…

      Kathy, I agree with the bra strap. We had dinner pictures made while on our cruise and my strap was showing in one of the photos. It’s a good photo, but I wish the strap wasn’t in the picture…
      Did you know that in Gymnastics they count off points for a bra strap showing during a rountine?…

    Wow Jenny! I love your photos. My favorite are your flower photos. You can actually see the veins in this one. Awesome work there Jenny 🙂
    The new Santa Monica Place sounds like fun. Glad you and Denis had a nice time and Jenny I’ve never heard of a place that has valet parking for bikes, but it makes sense being right there on the beach. I have to say it’s kinda unique…
    I knows you do really good with your recipes. Who wouldn’t want to dig right in. Can’t say that I blame Denis, I would be moving the pie as well…lol… 🙂

    Take care,
    Rhonda
