ReplyDeleteA frankcheezie? How cute. As a kid, (years ago), we used to call them "hot dogs stuffed with cheese and wrapped in bacon" - how original! My sister and I loved them, Book and her sibs, love them, and I suspect their kids will, too. Go Cubs! Snowbird
ReplyDeleteGood answers. Impressed by the movie trivia win. That Francheezie looks yummy. Have a good Sunday!
ReplyDeleteLOL - I know you so well! When I saw that band question, I knew you'd say that. In exactly that way, too! hehe
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, I wish you were still in Williamsburg too because I'd come visit you! :-)
I put Unwise Passions in my amazon cart. Thanks for the recommendation!
ReplyDeleteYou had me at "The"! LMAOROFL! Thanks for the laughs...

ReplyDeleteI was going to post nearly the same thing - thought it might be one of my sisters when I saw the "hot dogs stuffed with cheese and wrapped in bacon" - then I realized it was my mom. LOL. I like "frankencheezie" though I probably haven't had one in 20 years. Might be a fun thing to make with the kids sometime. ;)
Gal - I appreciate the comment very much. As a writer, imagination is important and I have so much fun writing in the castle. I am honored that someone noticed. Thank you.
ReplyDeletePopulating the kingdom.....oh no...no, I can't be....no. Just no.
P.S. I like your sense of loyalty too and friendship too. That's evident in everything we read here.
