Cleaning out the food trap on a dishwasher wax pretty bad, as no one knew it needed that and I hadn’t been part of the purchase. It was slowly not working so I searched for the specific manual and tada! death and horror awaited me.
It’s clean now. It stays cleaner now or I stab people with forks.
My bread machine just slowly developed a leak and died. I decided my stand mixer would do and removed the crying machine.
We have garbage plates here, so maybe not. I mean. I know what cheese curds are, but getting them is annoying! (NJ)
Lotta cranberry bogs here, and tomatoes.
Mother would ‘sing’ the Oranges Lemons song. Er…
“Orange lemons sang the bells of St. Clemens” song thing. It’s longer. I don’t remember it now.
Once all my cooking bowls are cleaned, I’ll make some! We had waffles this morning, so all the cooking bowls are dirty.
Oh right Ihad some chocolate on those waffles.
I need more! We all need more.
It is very hard and sad, knowing my house has no easily consumed chocolate.
I could make some chocolate peppermint crinkle cookies but that would take awhile… why can’t chocolate just appear next to me right next to my drink! Alas.
Oh, no. Hella worse. They were solidly middle class with two solid careers at this point. And kids, but I don’t want that part so that’s a wash. But nicer house, nicer stuff entirely. But me and my husband are in a better place relationship wise so I got that over them??
I won front row tickets to his show and it was lovely! My mother got the signed tshirt and ticket stub framed for me, its in my dining room wall!
So far my identical twin has not killed me nor have I killed them, so I’d be safe probably.
I am… heavier but a little shorter, and I’d feel the alcohol from a single daiquiri but it wouldn’t be unpleasant. More than one would be unpleasant. I’m also a lightweight, drinking maybe once a month at most, and usually more like every other month.
Yeah, my dad would get me and my twin something small and mother something big. So if he got her a lot of chocolates, we’d get a little thing of chocolates! The bed thing is
Weird.
I have a set of microfiber cloths with one per room. Once they get filthy I wash them in a small clothes bag. And every so often just buy a new pack. They’re cheap.
Instantly? Where the fuck is my husband. If only I can’t see him but my twin can I guess me, my now invisible to me husband, and I go to the hospital to ask “yo something is very weird in her brain”
Edit - oh they’d think it’s normal they’re gone.
I guess argue with my twin for hours about my husband still should exist and not have disappeared.
It was new at the time! Or maybe. While the education I got was pretty good, it was eclectic. I only remember learning math. I picked up language before solid memories form. I also sort of have some brain uh. Problems.
I liked moving the tens to the ones place. I think these days kids are doing some kind of cube thing? Seems neat!
She disliked a lot of the newer methods of teaching, so I’m guessing she preferred whatever was before that. The only one she named really was the New Math and I’m positive the New Math was pretty old by the time I was taught it. Have you ever watch Lehrer’s song New Math? That’s what I was taught, and if it was new then, it was ancient when I got to it!
No, while it was known, it was not taught at my schools. My mother hated the entire concept so if they tried she’d likely have raised hell.
Or just put us somewhere private instead. The much more sensible option lmfao
Boringly, the only thing in there currently is the guide from the dmv (mvc, sorry) for nj to review cause I’m feeling old and need a refresher.
“Add flour until its not really sticky anymore” is basically what my great grandmother’s donut recipe says. Thanks! At least the rest is normal! Wait no it’s also includes “one cans worth” which is so bad. Shrink on cans is so bad.
Do spices count as ingredients? My mother always pressed into me so much to have a stocked spice…drawer? Rack? Thing? that I don’t think of them as a number for the recipe. “Of course I have black pepper, salt, oregano, bay leaves, etcetc” but I realize maybe I should count them before giving recipes!
