"Milk - all kinds"

ElicBxn @ElicBxn (63594) • United States 18 Mar 22

This was an exact quote on a menu at a pretty fancy hotel back in the mid to late 1980s, in Nashville. I was not in Nashville for the country music... not a country music fan. I did get to pet a horse, I do like horses, but I...

ElicBxn @Deepizzaguy ahhh... like buttermilk? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buttermilk Connie... @maggiepie (may she rest in peace) would drink it, I don't care for it. People add it to cakes and stuff, but I think it makes cakes less sweet, and if I have anything, I...

Well, I did more cleaning, but you can't tell it...

ElicBxn @ElicBxn (63594) • United States 9 Mar 22

Why? Because the back pantry was such a mess. Honestly, it is still a mess, but I've taken probably 100 pounds or more, that'd be about 46 K or more out of it. Expired food... one can even leaked... I did find a few things...

ElicBxn I agree. The wife would want something, she would or I would order it. She'd eat one or two cans of it and then not want it again. A lot of the trouble is that I either don't like it or, more often, I can't eat it because of my food allergies. My friend...

said the wife last night. We were talking about dinner, which I ended up doing a good part of the cooking for. Now, she had cut up the squash and onions and then put the sweet potatoes on to boil, but I turned on the squash...

ElicBxn I guess so, I think its because I've ruined so many meals over the years that I don't want to ruin anymore. I'll agree that I haven't ruined any in a long time, in fact, the wife thinks I cook bacon better than she does, in part because while I was doing home...

Deborah-Diane @DeborahDiane (40288) • Laguna Woods, California 17 Jun 18

After a few crazy weeks, things will be calming down for our family now. In the past three weeks, I traveled with my husband to two business conferences and we also attended two family graduations. We never had more than two...

ElicBxn In May of 1980, my sister and brother both graduated from college, on the same day, and not at the same universities. Fortunately, my sister graduated from Southwest Texas State University (now Texas State University) in San Marcos Texas - that's about 30...

Neighbors are sometimes closer than you realize

ElicBxn @ElicBxn (63594) • United States 7 Feb 18

Back in 1984, when my parents bought this house for me to live in, I said then that I was never going to move again. At that time I was working for the State of Texas. I continued working for the State until 2005. Now, while I...

A very sad day

ElicBxn @ElicBxn (63594) • United States 26 Jan 17

Today I was called and told that @Maggiepie , who's real name was Connie Crouch, passed away this morning. I know she hadn't been on myLot for several years, even before the bad time of non-payments. I also know that many of...

Running hot and cold

ElicBxn @ElicBxn (63594) • United States 28 Jul 15

Yesterday, after I went out in the afternoon to take care of @Maggiepie I came home all sweaty. The car was hot, even with the AC blasting. But my front room was nice and cool. I went into the kitchen, that had cooled off a...
