Hey Chris. I am glad everyone is doing well. Is Holly rooting for Scotland? I am not into soccer, but it would be nice if the US wins more matches. I love the chocolate chips and potato fries. Send some my way. Hi to Holly and Tiger. Hugs.

who is the bobblehead on table in first picture? happy friday making cookies and chips n fries.....I went out to Applebees with friend Jody tonight....I had the all you can eat meal with riblets and garlic chicken boneless wings fries and crunch shrimp....it was good but I could have eaten more because it took too long to eat the riblets with the bones in them I had to go ahead and stop stuffing my face because jody was done with her cheeseburger....it was good....I gave nice tip....jody paid for her meal.
I had three helpings or four I forget of the shrimp....those were the best fried shrimp....coctail sauce with them

Hi Sweet Chris, Happy Baking Friday. I enjoyed seeing your set up with your baseball bobblehead. Who is the person that is the bobblehead? It's a nice bobblehead. I enjoyed seeing all of you in the pictures & the chocolate chip cookies & homemade fries look great. It's really nice how u put old bay seasoning on your fries. That was funny that you put the cookie dough up to the light when your nephew asked you to make the cookie dough lighter. I'm glad u all had a fun time together and I hope u have a fun Saturday going shopping at the D. Tree & your movies. Hugs & love FF

Hi baking team is so nice to see everybody and your had some fun and the chocolate chip cookies and the fried potatoes look so good. I need to get Bruce the fries. I’m now at the weather is better easily. Use the fryer outside gets all over everything down the basement. Bruce is out cutting the grass. It’s really a nice day tomorrow. Supposed to be rain though. I love talking to you on Thursday, thank you for being our friends and being there we’re here for you. We had a terrible thing happen yesterday. We were coming down the street from the doctors and I seen three kids on those motorbikes which I don’t approve of and I told Bruce Stop that one kid is not looking. He went right in and hit the front of our car went up on the hood to call the ambulance and the police and thank God the boys OK was just Bruce up, but our car got damaged pretty bad so now we’ve got to get that fixed. I think his parents are responsible for fixing it. We call our car insurance but they said that the parents and their home insurance should cover it so I hope so. Always something going on. But thank you for being there and enjoyed your pictures and have a wonderful weekend we love you all. .

sorry Squarely that your hubby got hit by kid on an ebike....that sucks....hopefully his parents have homeowners insurance. also important that he was not too badly hurt by his reckless riding on that bike....
