ommi, when you joined our board you didn't just get new customers, you also got a new family that will always be there to worry with you and listen when you need us.
having been there too many times, there is nothing worse than fear for a child (i'll tell you more about that when we meet). thankfully, your prayers were answered and he is well. we are all so very happy for you. Quote:

Omni, this is fantastic news, that your 6 year old is doing well, more than likely, better than you and your wife. Your prayers were answered and we will continue to pray for his speedy recovery.

Ommi ~ as sherry said, whether or not you want to be, you're now part of our family.
So sorry to hear that your son was sick, and had to have surgery, but thank G-d he's on the mend now, and he'll be in our thoughts and prayers. Whew ~ I was afraid you didn't want to show us your balls!! |

Gee, I've heard so much about Ommi's balls that I'll have to try them too in a couple of weeks. Ommi, do you have enough to go around?
Bobbie ps - glad to hear your son is on the mend! |

I'm so jealous, Bobbie! You're going to see Ommi's balls before I do, and then sherry goes, and with all the publicity, everyone's going!! By the time I get there next February, Ommi's going to be ball-less! Woe is poor little me!

Ommi...so glad that your son is doing well. I worked in Pediatric surgery...and it's amazing how fast kids recover....sometimes faster than the parents!LOL.
We'll be there in April!!! I'll come and say hi...how's your balls, and my hubby will die of embarrassment!! ![]() ![]() |

Let me start by thanking you all for your prayers and well wishes. I've read all your posts and it made me feel so great by ya'll's support.
I also wanted to thank you for adopting me into your family. I am privileged to be a member of this great family. Regarding my son, he is doing better but is going through some painful recovery. That is the reason why I was absent during these few days or weeks. Furthermore, I had to take care of the restaurant for the National Anthem and Flag day which was yesterday. Yesterday we had a creole buffet consisting of many local dishes such as Goat Stew, Shark Meat made in Keri Keri (Minced), Fried Barracuda in creole tomato and onion sauce, fish soup, okra soup, etc, etc, and yes you guessed it.....FISH BALLS!!! Everybody was anxious to take some but all were afraid that Elain would get made if anyone touches those tasty balls. Last edited by Cooks Restaurant; Wednesday, March 19th, 2008 at 01:18 PM. |

Thank you Liz for thinking of him and wishing him well. He's doing ok and is recovering. As Sherry said, the most important thing is that he is on his way to recovery.

Omni, so glad you have surfaced again to let us know that your son is on his way in his recovery. As you know, your Aruba Family here has been very concerned about him, we keep him in our prayers.

Most importantly ~ the little guy's doing well. It's so difficult, as a parent, seeing your child going through emotional or physical pain! By virtue of the fact that you're part of our family now, he's an extension of you..
As to the menu yesterday, nobody, and I mean nobody better be touchin' those balls till I get there! I kind of feel a certain proprietorship!! ![]() ![]() Quote:

Dear Sweet Elaine, are you threatening me? Remember I go in Dec., but what the h#%*, I guess I can wait until next Feb. to check out those "balls". I wouldn't want to beat you to them.

Elaine girl, you are such a good friend. I think I will wait for you and we can do "ball check" together!!!! Oh, and Chris too!!! A three-some. Watch out Omni, Feb. is only, what, 10 1/2 months away.

Bobbi, I would love to be there when you ask Omni if you can see his "balls", so I could see the expression on your husband's face!! Are you going to be able to keep a straight face?

I'll probably have to let DH in on the joke. He may already know as he reads over my shoulder half the time.
Sh, sh. Be quiet everyone. I don't want Robin to get any ideas as she is in Aruba now. I want to be the first to taste Ommi's balls, fish balls that is. |

![]() An Ode to Ommie ..Now listen ladies, hear what I say… Ommi’s balls are not for play!! They’re tender, moist and very sweet, From what I hear, a sensual treat! February get here, hurry please.. I’m begging you on bended knees! Bobbi, sherry, and gina, too, And just my luck, someone new Will judge those balls, I see it now I hear them clearly screaming, WOW! Woe is me, I’ll be the last I see it now, the dye is cast.. ![]() |

![]() I woke up this morning, your answer I read
It depressed me so badly, I went back to bed. ![]() Now I'm awake, in full fighting gear.. You've thrown down the gauntlet, sherry, my dear. I feel so silly, can you imagine the calls... "Ommi, my friend, can I see your balls?" ![]() The ladies are rushing, the men giving looks.. The lines oh so long to get into Cook's. We've started a rumor, it didn't take long.. I hope it's the truth, and we aren't wrong, Size really matters, or so I've been told The bigger they are, the harder to hold. I shall end this for now, I must get to work.. Ya think Ommi's laughing... I feel like a jerk!! ![]() |

Gauntlet be da-mn-ed, Elaine don’t you see,
The balls were created especially for me! Molded and shaped, a beautiful thing, ‘those balls are for me’, you know I will sing. How presumptuous you are, to think you can take, Those beautiful things that ommi did make For me the leader the queen and ruler of all They were made just for me and surely not small. So be off you pretender to this woman’s throne, Those balls are mine and them I shall own. (now can i go and run my errands like a dutiful wife?) Quote:

![]() Da-mn-ed did you say, you sound like a preacher.. You may be the queen, but I am the teacher. My word was the last, the kids were afraid If they said anymore, it would reflect in their grade. Now back to those balls, you think you own That are causing the bedlam on Ommi's phone. How do you know, without having seen That they're molded and shaped, my jealous queen? Your anger is rising, as seen in this jingle, And I need them more because I am single! Be off with you now you dutiful wife, I keep on writing, I have no life.. With visions of balls dancing in my head.. A smile on my face as I get into bed Oh no my queen, a pretender I'm not.. Those balls are mine, and Ommi is hot!! Quote:

a preacher a teacher, i'm neither of those.
but i am your queen right down to my toes. a student may fear you but i'm not one of them. i am your ruler right down to my hem. as to those ball that were made just for me, i know for a fact what shape they must be. i challenged dear ommi to make them my way. that's that so say i and forever will say. but since you are lonesome and for yourself have none, i kindly share them my friend since my husband has one, or two if you count them and he keeps them for me for he's not like spitzer and gives faithfully.

![]() Here we sit, you and I, like two silly fools.. Rhyming and writing about fish, and their jewels. I felt badly for Murray who has a cute bun When his balls you were counting, and said only one! I gasped out in horror, for it was too few.. ![]() So glad when I read that he really has two! A ruler you are, and my queen it's a fact.. Because of all that I'm using some tact. I count to ten as I walk down the halls.. Keeping this clean as we chat about balls. ![]() Never again when I look at a fish.. Lying there dead on a corningware dish.. Will I ever forget the sacrifice made.. And the terrible price the little guy paid! So you can have at them, I've lost the taste I have now decided that I will be chaste. ![]() No balls will I eat for as long as I live.. My share is now yours, to you I do give!! Quote:

i have to admit, it has given me a lot of laughs when they have been most needed. elaine and i have played dueling poems before and i think her talent wins hands down.
if the balls and other things at cooks are as wonderful as ommi's sense of humor, it will become my favorite restaurant along with ommi becoming a good friend i will look forward to spending time with. |

sherry ~ there are no winners or losers here, but thank you. You're da-mn-ed good, girl!
Having done this for a living, I find it fun, and most especially, a stress reliever. As for Ommi's sense of humor, we sure are testing him!! lol Quote:

Roses are red,
Violets are blue, My balls are only for you. Whether you are the Queen or the Beast, You are sure to have a Feast. In my eyes you are all Queens, For that you will get my balls sized Supreme. Poetic I may not be, But satisfaction at Cooks Restaurant are for Thee. My (fish)balls are hot, So hurry because they are coming up. Laughter you all brought to me, Your poems can not be beat. |

Roses are red,
Violets are blue, Ms. Elaine don't forget The queen goes before you She gets to see, smell and taste it's true, And if you stay in her good graces She might save one or two. Omni's the best We know this is true What will he say when meets you two? |
