Doctor says I need less fat. Didn’t say whether she meant in my diet, but I’ll assume she did. So I’m using smaller glasses for my gallon of milk a day. I’ve also been slicing my chub of Spam thinner, and breaking the chips in half before I eat them.
Kathy’s trying to support my efforts. She’s gone to 999-Island dressing.
We ordered steaks from a renowned Midwest high-end specialty meats company. They came packaged with impressive care.
In the steak department, the one-and-a-half’s tended to be 1 1/4″s unless you fluffed them up a bit. If you like filets, the offerings were medium to petite. And while all the meat had excellent flavor—I’ll give them credit for flavor—the quality of the meat, in the “eat-ability” sense, was certainly not high-end. Notwithstanding that Kathy could carve out the bad part of a sirloin burger, she pared away about a quarter of her filet.
This morning she came over to say there had been horrible sound when she turned on the garbage disposal. Something was locked in mortal battle with it, and the disposal was losing. Very, very carefully, she reached down into the disposal and pulled out the remnants of—wait, wait…never mind… The whole thing’s just disgusting.
I’m O so disappointed.
Denny’s restaurant offers something amusingly named “Moons Over My Hammy”, a ham and scrambled egg sandwich on sourdough that’s pretty good. When Kathy was gone last night I looked around for the ingredients to make one.
I had everything I needed, except the Hammy. I considered alternatives, but somehow “Moons Over My Spammy” didn’t have the same appeal.
Directions said that after microwaving I should let the frozen dinner stand 2-3 minutes. I’m not letting it stand 2-3 minutes. All the stuff will slide out.
I’ll let mine sit.
We each had an English muffin this morning, but somehow Kathy’s got burned. Then I only got about two bites into mine before Kathy decided to switch.
Some people are so thoughtless.
I was casting a hungry eye on one of the soups in the pantry: Beef w/ Wild Rice and Country Vegetables. …Umm, umm. Then I looked closer and put it back.
It didn’t say what country.
One of the reasons I drink whole milk is that it’s such a great bargain.
1% milk at my store is $3.29. So I figure 100% milk should cost $329.00. But it’s the same price as the other one! What a bargain!
I won’t tell if you won’t.
Marie Callenders has been slapping up billboards touting their latest promotional campaign: “Any Pie Just $6.99!”. Then in smaller print below, “Berry Pies $1.00 More”.
It’s nice when punch lines write themselves.
Kathy bought another angel food cake. She loves those things. But she always hides them ever since I told her that I once squished one down to the size of a marble.
Kathy took some of my Famous Jamous Chex Mix into work with her yesterday, and all day long there was a steady stream of visitors and re-visitors to her cubicle.
I asked her how demand had been today and she said not so good. A lot of people were out sick.
