It looked better than the kind I've had.<BR/> Now, just for you two, a MIL story:<BR/>a little background on MIL: she worships Martha Stewart, has a lot of antiques and somewhat fancy heirlooms in her house, nearly dropped dead when I served something on paper plates...etc<BR/><BR/>My SIL married to Drew's bro: loves to thwart MIL at every opportunity<BR/><BR/>SIL decided we would make GBC to serve X-mas eve dinner. She forced me to make it, I did, it was gross<BR/><BR/>MIL had asked us previously when we were going to change for dinner, I had on black pants &red sweater, SIL had on Mickey mouse sweatshirt. SIL forbade us to change.<BR/><BR/>MIL arrived with her mother in tow both wearing mink coats, moth eaten ancient mink coats but still, mink coats. <BR/>Remember what SIL is wearing<BR/><BR/>Any way she slops extra helpings of GBC on their plates. Being proper ladies they had to force it down and say how delicious it was.<BR/><BR/>I'm thinkin you would like SiL BeeJean Kneehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16044899838339645790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155163465692365863.post-90880620628531806712007-11-06T14:50:00.000+00:002007-11-06T14:50:00.000+00:00Okay, I'm back.jean knee should be here soon...Any...Okay, I'm back.<BR/>jean knee should be here soon...<BR/>Anyway, as long as you and Helena liked it then we're happy you found out about GBC.
