Lori from Adelaide, Australia

Welcome to your own page.You will have many visitors in the near future. so I brought you some finger food and a bottle of sparkley wine. Drop into my page anytime. Cheers

LORI, Welcome to sudokuland. I hope you enjoy your time here as much as I enjoy visiting here. There is a lot to do other than work sukoku and jigsaw puzzles. Sorry the jigsaw puzzles are broken, our leader is on vacation, and in his absence, we broke the site

Look around, make your self at home and go visiting other members pages, lots of fun! I hope you will tell us about your little corner of the world.

Hi Lori, and nice to see you (rarely) post! A belated welcome to your own Sudoku page. I'll leave my traditional double chocolate fudge beavertail pastry from Ottawa as a page warming gift, so I hope you enjoy rich pastry. Cheers!

Gday Lori and , from an expat Sth Aus now living east of the border. We moved over here 10 years ago for hubby's work but I try to get back as often as possible because my Mum still lives there.
I've brought you some page-warming goddies. A bottle of bubbly, a plate of nibblies and an invitation to drop in to my page anytime. BTW Don't worry to much about the lack of deckies for the mo, we were all novices when we arrived!

LORI, by jove, I think you have it! Using Smilies is such fun!! master those and you can graduate to Avatars! If you need help, give a holler, there are many on the site who can and will help you get started, including me. Now, it is time for nite nite here.

lol Lori, that's why I mentioned that I was from SA, I thought we're probably related! I was actually born in Woomera but we moved to Adelaide when I was 6. Mum lives in Fulham Gardens and my brother lives in Modbury. Before we moved, we lived in Mylor. Do you know it? Its a small town in the hills next to Aldgate. That's why we have ended up here, very similar. Before that we were in the burbs in Newport.

hills, next to Aldgate. That's why we have ended up where we are, very similar kind of place. Before that, we were in the burbs at Newport.

Go girl! it will become easier the more you do.I am a self taught novice.So If I can do it anyone can but I don't use smilies. Some times my words run into each other or I add an extra letter or forget my capital letters after a fullstop. I think i'm forgiven??. Cheers.

Lori to your own page. Here's some to help with your decorations and a bottle of our local Wignall's Late Harvest for you to enjoy and share with your visitors.
I'm looking forward to seeing your photos when they are up and running.

Great photos Lori.

wow..nice pics, and I welcome you to take a look at my pics in my page...me not a professional or something , but decent enuf to have a look..
cheers

Hello Lori - you have some lovely photos and a nice good looking family.

Lori, thanks for sharing the photos, I enjoyed viewing them and left a comment or 2 on the photos. I notice in the schol photos, the children are in uniforms, but different uniforms for your class, with brown skirts/trousers, and another group playing ball had dark red skirts/trousers. Is there a reason??

Lori, thanks for the info about the different color uniforms. Brown Scouts uniforms, interesting.

see you back on the pages,

Tricia

and a belated official welcome.JPG] to you to Sudokuland. I also brought along a Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie for you and your guests.

Lots of things to do and places to visit as you are probably well aware by now and chat going on. Stop by my place any time, doors open, pie in the fridge & a video playing. Hope you get to the party at Jebs.

Lori - the recipe for the Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie is on page 2 of the recipe fourm. As spring is comming for you - in a few months fresh strawberries should be available in Australia.

My mother is a travel agent (now 85 and still working & travling). 8 years ago, she asked me if I would like to go on a Safari, she had a deal. I told her it was not the top of my list (6 months earlier I had taken my dream vacation to NZ). When she said she would pay for the trip, I definetly took an interest. Well the orignial deal fell through and another came up to Kenya and we went. It was thoroughly enjoyable.

I would love to go back to the So. Island of NZ and over to Australia. Another place I would love to see before I die is the Rome & the Vatican (I'm not Catholic). A couple of other places I have wanted to see are Nova Scotia (since a child) and the Dalmation Coast.

My mom has been to nearly 150 countries. I'm nowhere near her. But have vicariously shared in her travels.

Lori, one of your photos is on easy tonight. The crater lakes.

Lori just stopping by to say hello. Your photographs are wonderful and it is nice to put a picture to your name. I have a few crater lakes on my pictures, taken by son in Iceland. Glad to see you posting and hope that you continue to enjoy the site.

No worries at all mate. I loved looking through your pics, they left quite an impression so I recognised it straight away but I was too tired last night to put a name to the photographer! Sorry about that.
I giggled when I read your follow-up comment re the AFL. Your sad secret is safe with me. I'm a little torn in two about the final-Power because of the state association and Geelong for exactly the reason you said. They are NOT a Melbourne team! We're Crows fans so in reality, I don't give a hoot. Hope your son has a blast. Will hubby have access to the game at all?

Hi Lori. Saw your comments just now on sudoku. I started off on this site on the jigsaw side through my sister (Maureen/Dubbo) & have seen a lot of your pictures in the archives there. Great photos & I really enjoyed doing them as jigsaws. Thanks very much!

Nice avatar Lori. Well done. Isn't Gath, our esteemed leader, wongerful! I'm not the person to ask about avatars. MizT provided me with all three of mine, just things she thought would be appropriate for me. She walked me through the whole process because I'm a complete pooter ninny! Ask her on her page, I'm sure she would be only too happy to help.

Hi Lori, you have some good photos. I have noticed some of them on sudoku before. I have been doing sudoku for over two years but have only just started my page this year, too. Anyway welcome to your new page.

Hi Lori. You have some wonderful pictures, I enjoyed looking at them. I have left a box of Purdy's chocolates for you and your guests. Come visit my page any time.

Thanks for coming by. I agree with you it is fun seeing one of your own photos in pieces then putting it back together. Pity we can't do that so easily with our broken crockery etc!!!

Woohoo Lori, you rule. Congratulations on putting up your Youtube. Loved the Gamelan performance.
Go Power!

I don't know why that became such a BIG comment space! It could have had something to do with my cat, Punch trying to sleep on the keyboard! Sorry.

Hi, L O R I .
Many thanks to your very kind words and your lovely wishes.
You are welcome to see my new group of photos which cover my Cruise to Mexico hope you enjoy it .
Have a very nice time.

Hello Lori, thanks for visiting my page and your compliments about my photos and the scenery around our area. I think we live in a beautiful part of the world, and there are beautiful places everywhere in the world just waiting for us to see them.
I called in while I was at work the other day and had a quick browse of your photos but didn't manage to leave a comment. You have some lovely photos in Flickr and I've noticed a few of your photos on the site lately. Well done!

Commiserations to your hubby and especially your son. I felt so sorry for him, thinking of him sitting at the MCG. Unfortunately, a crushing defeat. Hope hubby doesn't drown in his sorrow!

Sometimes I don't feel like hanging around. Every now and then, something will happen that changes the mood a little. Give me a couple of days and I'll be back to my rambunctious self! You can't keep a good Adelaidian down for long.
Thank you,
Gail

ps Meant to say, I loved today's photo. It almost doesn't look real. You must have some fantastic memories, thank you for sharing them. I knew it was yours straight away! Brill.

Hi, Lori! Thanks for the tips. Unfortunately, I WAS using the numeric keypad but with zero results! I can get all the punctuation (accents, tildes, etc.) using the alt + number code, but I can't get hearts or all the other FUN stuff!!! By the way, welcome to Sudukoland!!!

Lori, was yesterday's photo on easy one of yours?

Hi,LORI.
Very pleased to stop by your page to say Hello and enjoy your recent photos.Hope you are very well.
Have a very nice time.

Just dropping in to say Hi and send some Holiday greeting your way. - your travels sound so nice - enjoy your day, Mary

Lori - thanks for the visit! I did a little searching, and did find one place that said golden syrup could be used as a substitute for corn syrup. Also, the dark corn syrup has basically had a little molasses added to it.
Many pecan pie recipes vary in the use of dark/light corn syrup.
If you give it a try, let me know how the pies turn out.
From your info at the top of your page, Indonesia is one place that I hope to be able to visit one day - it looks very inviting.
to you and your husband.

Hi Lori! I was perusing the recipe pages and noticed you had requested a recipe for Clam Chowder. I posted one for you. It's pretty versatile. You can adjust (add, subtract) seasonings, etc. to suit your taste.

Lori - Have a GREAT last week of school, and then enjoy the long break. I am looking forward to our short Christmas break (we get 9 days off this year). This has been the most stressful, intense semester of my career I think. We have two more weeks.
I will bake some pecan pies for our gatherings, and I hope they come out okay - it would be a shame to let my grandmother down!
Hope your family has a wonderful time, and I hope the new recipes turn out well.

Gday Lori, Just buzzing past to wish you and yours a very

Merry

and a



Gail

Lori, Just dropping in my cheers and have a eaa.
