“My Mint Green Robe”
 |  |  |  |
 |  |
Description from Lynn Eileen Chicky LE: Even though today is New Bead & Back in Stock Thursday, I did not realize we were dressing up for the occasion. LOL Because I am still stuck at home sick with bronchitis, I am wearing my mint green bathrobe. Across the top of the robe are embroidered flowers in darker shades of green and teal with white centers. The bright pink is for my bedroom slippers!

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:For those of you who like to keep track of these things, I’m still in my mint green robe……just one of those days…..bronchitis + cold weather + no ambition = Chicky LE in her robe all day. ROTFLOL
On Dec 10, 2009 at 8:18 pm #
Debbi aka Sparkle Chick says:Aww Lynn…it might have been one of those days but you sure kept us laughing today!
Hysterical comment #1: If a Chicky eats chicken soup, is that cannabalism?
Hysterical comment #2: Three Lima Babies on the way…you said: Shouldn’t this be listed today under “New Additions”?
You keep me laughing, Lynn…thanks!
On Dec 10, 2009 at 8:27 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Thanks, Debbi — I aim to please!
Maybe the Lima Team is going to wait and list them under “New Additions” after they are born!!! ROTFLOL

J Yee smart chick says:Lynn, sorry to hear you’re still at home recuperating from bronchitis, what a lovely soothing Pick, that touch of pink sure “pops” the soothing greens and blues you have here!!! Sending you good wishes for you to get better SOON!!! Hugs and XO XO!!!
Debbi, you’re making me ROTFLMAO w/ your chicken soup and chickie jokes: makes me think of one of my absolute FAv “Far Side” cartoons: it shows a sick rooster in bed, and his wife brings him a bowl of chicken soup, saying:
“Eat it Harry – #1, It’s good for you, and #2, it’s no one we know!!!
Really I’m NOT making this up!!! Wish I had a copy of it!
On Dec 10, 2009 at 8:33 pm #
J Yee smart chick says:Oh and yeah, those new LB team babies on the way, they sure should be listed under “New Additions”!!!

Happy Chick aka Harriet says:What a fun Pick!!! and great conversation too! LOL
Lynn, I am so sorry you are still feeling bad with that nasty bronchitis, and you know you have my complete and sincere sympathy. When I had bronchitis, I practically slept sitting up…it looked like I was hiding in a fort made of pillows…my hubby just watched in amazement as I carried more and more pillows from the guest room to my bed.
Think about having some chicken and dumplings when you feel a little better. That is my version of comfort food. Wish I was close enuf to make a batch for you.
I don’t know about the cannibalism thingy…maybe yes, maybe no! But it tastes so good!

Debbi aka Sparkle Chick says:Oh Joyce, those funny jokes are courtesy of our own sweet Chicky LE! SHE is the funny one!
That Far Side cartoon is FUNNY!
On Dec 10, 2009 at 8:53 pm #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Joyce, I’ve seen that Far Side cartoon!!! It really IS hysterical!!! Thanks for your get well wishes, too!

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Harriet, I remember when you were sooooo sick with bronchitis and thought you’d never get well enough to attend Amy’s graduation! And here you are, all healthy at last…..LOL
Thanks for your good wishes and food ideas!
I never knew my bathrobe could be so inspiring……

Faithful Chick aka Faith says:My families comfort is home made potatoe with egg rivels. If there is any German I think in someone’s back ground you’ll know egg rivels are little bits of egg flour mixture. I make mine 1 egg broken into 1 to 1 1/2 cup flour. Stir in with a fork until crumbly soft mixture is in little bits. If there is flour mixture left in the bowl just put into the hot potatoe water while boiling stiring in gradually. Don’t let them clunk together. They swell while cooking.
Potatoe Soup
Cut up 3 or 4 good size potatoes into little tiny chunks
Cut up 1 large onion into tiny chunks also
(if your family is not into onion the smaller the better; but it definitely not the same with out onion.)
Cover with water boil until onion is clear and potatoe chunks are tender.
If there is not enough liquid that you feel the rivels will separate while cooking add enough milk and or a little water bring back to a boil.
Add flour egg mixture stiring if they were a little moist when added they will plump up like a little dumpling. Take a fork and break apart the large clumps and
cook until mixture begins to thicken. The extra flour will help this.
Add lots of butter. Salt to taste.
Enjoy.

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Wow, thanks, Faith! This all sounds delicious!!!
On Dec 10, 2009 at 9:08 pm #
Debbi aka Sparkle Chick says:Sounds delicious! Especially the lots of butter part! Yummy!
On Dec 10, 2009 at 9:09 pm #
Debbi aka Sparkle Chick says:Wow Lynn…who knew your mint robe would inspire such a conversation! I almost did one this morning about my pink Snuggie!
Better left for another day!

Faithful Chick aka Faith says:If anyone decides to make this soup. Just remember it tends to grow into a bigger pot for me. I start in a six quart and sometimes move it into my 8 quart. LOL.
You can add cheddar cheese,
or ham
or (never tried but my one cousin says he thinks clams would be good in it.)
On Dec 10, 2009 at 9:22 pm #
Faithful Chick aka Faith says:I hope you are soon feeling better. Be sure to check back to your doctor, should this become a chronic condition they may suggest something like the advair disk I use each day. Helped get the elephant off my chest.

Jeannes Gems - Gem Chick says:Lynn – your robe (pick) is beautiful. I’m definitely a fan of these colors.
I do hope you’re feeling better, soon. I know bronchitis can be a XXX – I think I’ve said that before. I does tend to hang on.
On Dec 10, 2009 at 10:10 pm #
Happy Chick aka Harriet says:Lynn, you will overcome this!!!
I did get better and, with the encouragement of yourself and other Chicks, I bravely made the flight to see my baby graduate! LOL
But the others are also right: Do keep in touch with your doctor and be sure you get the rest and care you need.
RX: Stay in touch with the Chickies, eat good soothing foods, drink nice peppermint or mint tea, take your medicine, and… make lovely pillow forts to sleep in and take over the whole bed!

Cotopaxi Chickie Sue says:Lynn, love your robe and your slippers! At least we can see you coming! LOL
Dr. Harriet has it right – be sure to follow her instructions to the letter, cuz we want you back full time!

Anita QoG Funny Chick says:Okay Lynn, Why did the chicken cross the road? or What came first, the chicken or the egg? These are questions I think you may know the answers to!!! I have my ideas, but, as Chickies we should know the facts…LOL…. Please, tell us!!! BTW; I love your slippers!!!! VERY COOL!

Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Late breaking bulletin — The doctor’s nurse called to let me know that Monday’s chest x-ray showed I do have congestion in my lungs, but it is not pneumonia, thank goodness. I am to finish this course of antibiotics and return for another chest x-ray in 4-6 weeks. Of course, I am more than welcome to return sooner if necessary.
I love my pink slippers! I have several pair, including a pair that look like pigs.
On Dec 11, 2009 at 12:52 am #
Lynn Eileen Chicky LE says:Thanks for the compliments and get well wishes, Faith, Jeanne, Harriet, Sue, & Anita! I promise to take extra-good Chicky care of myself!!!
BTW, the chicken crossed the road to get to the Lima Bead warehouse — why else?!?!?! ROTFLOL
