MM I hope conversations with your phone will be part of your book.
I'm having a productive day. I finally dug out the crock pot we got years ago from friends of my roommate. I want to make Osso Bucco but I'm not sure about the crock pot so I'm making an inexpensive chicken stew first to test it out. The recipe calls for ketchup but I substituted taco sauce. I'm not sure why I think taco sauce is an acceptable stew ingredient but ketchup is too lowbrow.
In a little bit I'm going to get cracking on that sausage lasagna.
And it's time to change out the laundry.
Yeah, it bothers me when a recipe calls for ketchup. Even though I'm making the rest of the dish, it feels like cheating. I always want to use tomato sauce and some stuff.
I asked in LJ and I'm gonna ask here.
We can get Em into the Perry High/Scope preschool program if we have 2 qualifiers - then we don't have to do the income crap which we aren't eligible for.
One is income in having an unemployed parent (Joe).
Another is a chronic illness of a parent - mental, physical, emotional.
Is is milking my BiPo to use that?
Brenda, I feel your answer was too long for my comprehension. Could you be more concise?
I feel bad for Berto with his jaw wired shut having to be here with all the cooking smells. I told him I'd make everything again after he gets his face unlocked.
also, I agree with Brenda
Thirding brenda's opinion.
oh and earlier, when everyone was saying what a fucktard Aimee's boss is? I agree with that too.
When I worked at a restaurant we had a boss who was so bad I wish I knew then what I know now about labor laws. He actually grabbed my arm one time and pulled me back up the stairs when I was trying to go home after working 12 hours. Saturdays we opened at 5 and we used to have a crew dinner at three and then do all our sidework and gather in the bar for a meeting and to taste the specials before opening. More often than not this would include time for boss to tell us what a bunch of slackers we were and how we didn't deserve to work there blah blah blah etc. One day around Christmastime he was on a rant about people asking for too much time off and he shouted, "what's more important! Your work or your family?!"
Several of us laughed and one cheeky guy (who was an excellent server) raised his hand, "ummmmm. Is this a trick question?"
Things did get better after his son was born. It was like he turned into a completely different person.

Only if you don't actually have it. Which you do.
