Indeed!  We do a bar crawl every time we visit and try to get the particular drink that the bar is known for when we go.  We’ve found some pretty cool places that were off the beaten path that we try to go back and visit.  Bar Tonique is one that comes to mind, although I am not sure if that is still considered off…

Whenever we go to New Orleans, I order the cursory gin fizz at the Roosevelt Hotel bar.  After I finish that, I always go to a grasshopper.  It’s fun.

I like to put peanut butter on my grilled cheese sandwiches. My mother did this when we were kids and now I do it. I’m pretty sure it’s the only thing that I ever picked up from my mom. I don’t eat it often....maybe once a year if that but just thinking of that melted peanut butter on the hot grilled cheese is making…

Both guesses sound a little like Teen Wolf.  :)

When we watched, one of the guys was convinced that actually the women were running the caper and they were all in on it somehow, but, alas, that was not the case.

OH NO!  This is fantastic.  I am trying not to laugh on this call I am on.  I have definitely eaten around a bite from my cats and/or dog.  But a whole turkey.  Oh man.  This was hilarious.

So my mother used to thaw meat in the sink when I was a kid. One morning we got up and the 6 lb cat who had NEVER done that before, had jumped up, pulled that pound of hamburger out of the sink, dropped it on the floor and proceeded to take two bites out of it.
I don’t exactly remember what happened but given my mom’s…

Well, this is interesting. I’ve been using a ratio of 1 cup of sugar to 2 cups of water to make my hummingbird food.  I’m all about 1 to 4.  Those little hummers are hungry!

I’m late to this discussion but it’s funny that you mention Texas. When the Toyota headquarters was planning its move to Plano, TX from Torrance, CA, they had all kinds of booths with information about moving from moving companies to real estate information to schools. There was also a booth about where the closest In…

I think it’s both the mud and the pumps. One of the old engine rooms has sitting water, if memory serves. There is a little breakwater built around her and the water is pretty shallow (50 feet, I think). There is a stupid old Russian submarine that is deteriorating right next to her and it’s mostly out of the water.
I…

I sea what you did there.

She did, which again, was not due to her hating dogs but due to the fact that she wanted a coat made of their skin. She is just a self-absorbed ass. She doesn’t need to be likable. That’s her schtick.

My original post was that while many people were comparing her wearing puppy skin to leather, I think you take it a…

All the animals were sentient beings including the cows, horses, and, if memory serves, a bossy cat. Not sure if there were any chickens or roosters in the barn, maybe an owl?

People keep using cows as a comparison but there are TONS of animals used for fur (including dogs and cats) on clothing. What’s the difference between puppies and minks or rabbits or chinchillas or lynxes? Hell, Beyoncé still wears fur but people don’t equate that with Cruella wanting to sport a spotted fur coat.

I did.  I was standing there a little shocked and didn’t know to whom the kid belonged as they were all running around.  It was a white so it wasn’t a showstopper.  We just made our way back to the van and let them know we were ready to go.  

I was winetasting this weekend at a place with a sculpture garden. I had my purse, jacket, mask, and water bottle in one hand and a glass of wine in the other while peeping out the garden art. There were kids at said winery and they were running everywhere. Did one of them run flat out into me spilling my wine all…

I remember going back to the library after reading one or two of the next books, and instead of getting the next book in the series, I just read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe again.

One time my parents sent us off to Disneyland with some distant cousins. I’m guessing I was in the 13 year old range. They told them to just “buy new domain a kid’s ticket.”

They took one look at me in my awkward teen glory, and I was summarily dismissed and sent back to the ticket booth to buy an adult ticket. It was…

Your college eating sounds different than mine. Dinners consisted of hamburger helper, $0.99 totino’s pizzas, Tina’s bean burritos, the occasional “homemade” spaghetti, soup, and sandwiches. If I was feeling particularly fancy and they were on sale, I’d buy chicken wings and fry them up. We usually shopped for a…
