The tea partiers are headed for Nova Scotia today. Cindy has gotten us the only available accommodations - in a light house! Our payment is supposed to be 42,000 pounds of fish! Well, those light house keepers don't need to keep ALL the fish! The tea partiers need to eat too, so I volunteered to cook. I make some yummy fish on the barbecue! Hey!! Will someone please help me get this fish to shore?!!! We'll eat good tonight!!
The images are MS Office Clipart. I sponged the sunrise and the Naturals Ivory "land". The turquoise piece was embossed with CB Tiny Bubbles. The fisherwoman is popped up. I sponged around the sentiment panel, too. Thanks for taking a peek!!!

So glad you have offered to cook. Does that mean you also will be cleaning them too? Love your scene here. Very clever and oh so sweet. TFS :0) ......will you be Bar-B-Q'ing those fish?

Can't wait for dinner! This scene is so wonderful. I love how you put it all together and the sponging is great. That is one of my favorite sentiments too. Super job!

I'm so glad that you volunteered to cook. Charlene was saying Sabrina and I were going to have to cook. I don't mind cooking but I hate cleaning. Love your little chef fisherman. I think that fish might be a little more than he can handle by himself, but since I can't swim, I'll cheer from the shore line!! I love the way your sky looks.

You're planning on getting that fish to shore? I think you need Charlene or someone else with a bigger boat to lend a hand. I don't mind helping out with the cooking, although I'm not overly fond of fish to eat. Barbecued sounds good, haven't had real grilled fish since I did a foreign exchange when I was still in school.

I love a cheerful giver and anyone who volunteers to cook is alright in my book! I hate to cook, but I love to eat! You rock, CarrollAnn!
I also was reminded of The Old Man and the Sea when I first viewed your darling card. Your chef dude looks Italian. Will he be serving us Italian food? I love da pasta! May I put in a request for a chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting or, oh!!! how about some lemon meringue pie? Mmmmmmm!!!
And, I'd be happy to lend the support of my boat to make sure you get your fish to shore, my friend. It's good to see you, again, this week!

Somebody get a fog horn, I mean a mega phone, one of those thingys that you can shout in and someone out at sea can hear you! Yah, that's it...that's it!!! Okay, lets test this thing!!
Yo Cook!! Tell your fish that we won't eat him! Tell him that he needs to go to shore cuz his cousin is in town and wants to go chunky dunkin' with him! Tell him that we have loads and loads of M & M's coming in on a tug boat called the Teapot-not-so-express! Whut??? No way! He says he knows you are trying to trick him???
Okay Plan B.....all you teapotters start swimming.....head for the big fish with the cook on it! Try your hardest to look like a school of girly fish....really sexy young ones! Yeah, that's it! Its working! Okay now keep on coming, keeping on coming....that's it! Now when he gets to where his belly is touching the shore, nab him! All at once! He's our 42,000 pounds Teapotters! All in one shot! Woot! I know, I know, I can't swim....that's why I am in charge!!!
Well, you make a silly card you get a silly comment! Snort! I love this card! I love that you are a regular teapotter cuz I love your creativity and humor! And you COOK! Whoo Hoo!
What fun images you found! I love it!!

Oh I'll have 2 halibuts and a cod fish thank you! Fried and with a lot of butter too. What a fun card CarollAnn. Do love how you placed your fisher/cook in the front so we can see her smiling while she fishes for our dinner. Great lighthouse also. What a beautifuly done scene. Fine colours. TFS
You can come and have a sip of my fish tea with your cook there. It's so good, once you've tasted it. LOL
