1/2 of a ham or smoked turkey & cheese sandwich on home made bread, with french onion dip on it instead of mayo or mustard.. A big slice of tomato from the back yard. A piece of home made banana bread, and a bottle of sweet green ice tea. All carried in a one gallon zip lock (everything in individual sandwich bags, of…

Unless you have a garden, or get them at a farmers market, you are better off buying frozen veggies. As they are frozen very shortly after picking, they will have better nutritional value than fresh veggies that have been in shipping & storage for weeks before you buy them.

Dr. Edell had it right 20 years ago.

One thing about parchment paper. Can’t be used in a really hot oven. Can’t use it for baking biscuits. For that, I use aluminum foil to line the cookie sheet.

Never been a problem here. Always comes out fine.

There are some that do. Here is a list of 17.

What the hay? TP rolls with no tube? What will people make der-ders out of? Or is that too old school now-days?

Not all that new. We got 2.9% last Nov. on a 2012 Ford Fusion from our bank (BoA). Much better than what the dealer was offering.

I’ve always liked this one.

Here is another idea. Skip the slice of American cheese. Take a big fat slice of a hard cheese (We like Gouda), cut it into very small cubes (1/8 to 1/4"), and mix it into the raw meat. Oh, while you are at it, mix in a bunch of semi-cooked and chopped up bacon. Much better than plain hamburger meat!

Don’t like olive oil. I use whichever one of these is appropriate at the time.

Better not go bra-less with these. Or, as they used to say, ‘don’t get your tit in the wringer.”

I was in a vacuum repair shop awhile back, and I asked the guy about Dysons. He had a used one of sale. He said they work OK, but they are way over priced, and have lots of small parts inside that are expensive to replace. Way over engineered. Personally, I like our cheap Bissell we got at wally-world for about 100…

When sitting around a campfire, if you find a nice big tick on you, drop it on a rock near the fire. It will swell up, and take off like a teeny tiny little rocket.

That is the way I used to save money for pot. Every night I would put all my change into a jar. But, last time I bought any, it was $20 an ounce.

I used to work at a large factory that was, of course, was one story, on a cement slab. We always sent the new hires to the basement to get a cart (we used many, many large bread type carts).

Ah, just give it a break, and go ghoti-ing.

Breaking the undergrowth off the edge of a 200 foot bluff, to get a better view of the Hemmed in Hollow waterfall.

Any good digital is better than what us old farts grew up with. I was amazed the first time I shot a roll of Tech Pan film. No grain at all. But now,...used to be a 20x24 print was pushing the limits. Now a digital 30x40 is no problem at all.

A squirt gun, or spray bottle works pretty good. We have a screen door on our bedroom, to keep the cats away from the bird, and also, it is the hottest room in the house. So the door needs to stay open.
