COLLEYBERRY

I hope everyone remembers what happened with Snow White and apples...just sayin'

Apple Pie Attire

Apple pie ,sweet apple pie

thou doth make a body sing.

Awaiting in my cabin fair,

oh indeed you're just the thing,

To mark my Hal adventure.

greet all the things I know.

Yes sweet apple pie of mine

'tis sailing I will go.

For certain it's Apple you must be

Not lemon,peach,or cherry

Nay none of them ever will do,

apple lone makes Hal folk merry.

I can not wait to see you.

just knowing you'll be there

fills my happy heart with joy.

Tiny question though,what's a gal to wear?

Love Colleen

Not to be facetious, but does anyone know where and when the "Friends of The Slice" meetings are held ? ? ? Please, no flamers; one of us needs to attend them regularly, otherwise they fall off the apple-cart. It's a sickness, folks, don't judge.:o

 

Smooth Sailing! :) :) :)

SO very funny !!:D:D

Off topic, kind of:

 

I had lunch with a friend yesterday who was on an Alaskan cruise on HAL earlier this summer. She told me that her waiter, during fixed seating, was Somalian. When I told her he wasn't, she was miffed and disagreed. (I'm now wondering if they've brought in Somalian waiters???)

Perhaps your friend misheard him and he said he was Samoan ??

That may well be true but--------:)

...more like it comes under the heading "If we don't know it,it ain't so.":D

As we sailed out of our home city of Saint John on the Eurodam a few years back, a couple from Texas who were on deck next to us mentioned that the only way to Nova Scotia from Saint John was by ferry. I assured him that we live here and very often drive to Nova Scotia in just a few hours, although it is possible to take the ferry. He insisted that I was mistaken and he and his wife walked away in a huff. His wife also stated that we couldn't possibly drive to Nova Scotia.

...oh my :D...your DH should have said "Please excuse her,she is easily confused and doesn't get out much " :D:D

We were sailing on an New England /Canada ...when discovering we were Canadian this American gentleman said "Yeah there are a lot on you on board...why the heck would you take a cruise that sailed to Canada ? ".....I am still scratching my head...:D.....either he didn't know how large Canada is and couldn't entertain that maybe some of her citizens hadn't seen all of it..or if they had might like to revisit via a cruise ship....and how he didn't factor in fellow Americans visiting Alaska or Hawaii or the two American ports he had just left I don't know...as I said still scratching my head.....odd thing was he wasn't the only one to ask us this....

We purchased two of the robes ....we use then poolside at home...water and a Hal robe...not exactly cruising but it still makes me smile.:)

Thank you COLLEYBERRY!!! I know we're not to correct spelling but this was driving me crazy.

I:D:D Mountianmare....in fairness though, clothes are pieces of cloth sewn together... so cloths kinda work:)

Rochelle I am sorry this happened to you...so not fun.

Also I believe the word is clothes not cloths ( cloths being the plural for cloth.. a piece of fabric )..unless my Canadian is showing... we tend to throw in extra letters here and there.;):)

A military dress uniform,a white shirt and tan slacks,the right sweater with a great pair jeans....and then there is a man in a kilt... a league all of it's own.:) He has a responsibility to wear his kilt.:D

Quite frankly, I can't wait until it's over.

 

Then we can stop hearing about it.

sorry :o

all that work and it comes down to a shoot out...but fair is fair it was not to be

:(

Oh my dear....another shootout :eek:...fingers crossed for the lads in orange.:):)

HOLLAND WINS !!!!....:):):):):):) on to semi finals !!

Oh my dear ...my nerves... down to a shoot out :eek:

I wonder how many Holland American crew members are enjoying this World Cup match...Holland vs Costa Rica.

Some how I have become a soccer/football fan....not sure if it is the athletic prowess, edge of your seat drama, or the not too ugly players who certainly seem quite healthy :o;)

Whatever the reason I am cheering for Holland....hope they are taking turns steering the ships.:D Enjoy the game.!!

Happy July 4th + 1 .....sorry for being late but my Birthday Wishes are most sincere.... a good neighbour ( this how we spell it in my neck of the woods :)) is a blessed thing ...glad you are ours. Love Colleen

Happy Canada Day !!! Sending Best wishes to all CC Canadians...hey that makes us triple CCCer's ;) ..and right around the corner come Birthday Wishes for our neighbors to the south. Love to all Colleen

The older I become the more I accept not everyone thinks the same way I do (still catches me off guard every once in a while;) ).... will keep your list in mind whenever I post Tracie :).... nothing better than a good discussion if you keep your mind and ears open...hard to do when things get nasty or worse yet personal.

Good Morning Kazu.... I understand you have been on quite a "trip";)...I hope you recover quickly and are back to typing full speed in no time. Sending Best Wishes.:)

Colleen

Mt mom's birthday was November 11. when she was a little girl, she thought the parades on "Remembrance Day" were for her.

When I was little my Dad told me the fireworks on July 1 were saying Happy Birthday Colleen !!....it took awhile but i eventually came to realize i was sharing the good wishes with a country:D:D

an

Victoria & Copper.. Thank you so much in sharing your stories with us.. My only wish is that there are no more wars & pray for peace every day..

Absolutely Betty..' date=',the world needs a lot more " tulips[/font']":)

These stories are a poignant reminder of what war really costs mankind...if misunderstanding the purpose and placement of flags in a dining room can cause offense no wonder world peace is so illusive.

My birthday is July 1 ..DH's Nov 11...hard to forget a birthday at our house ....should come in handy as we age ;)

Well, I'm dating myself, but you would have fit in nicely in America during the 60's!

:D:D That's me just a Hippy at heart,,, with flowers in my hair.;)
