A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

I asked my mom to bring gravy for Thanksgiving, in addition to her mac and cheese and this dish my fam calls cherry junk.

There was a sale at Target. She bought A CASE of gravy. We are having 5 people at dinner.

I am at once pleased/having horrified laughter. MOM!!! A case?!

I refuse to eat meatloaf because it is just wrong. See also, jello. Although I make a jello exception when I'm very ill or in hospital (only red jello, though).

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

I'm not a meatloaf fan. I think it's the texture. Jello is wrong, wrong, wrong, and I find it particularly nauseous when I'm ill. Also wrong: Cool Whip. Very, very wrong: a combination of Jello and Cool Whip.

Damn... how much is in a case of gravy? I mean, I could make an attempt to get through it over a period of time, and I like gravy, but that is a lot of gravy!

ETA: For example, I love it on meatloaf and mashers.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

On a written homework assignment, I asked, "Show how to find f'(x) using the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus and highlight where and why the chain rule was applied." One kid used a highlighter.

Because books.

Gravy is supposed to be homemade!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Gravy is supposed to be homemade!

I wasn't going to say it (because different strokes for different folks), but yes.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Meatloaf--yummmm. I'm pretty flexible with what kind I like, since as long as it isn't funky tasting or dried out, I'll like it. When I make it myself, it's the basic recipe someone mentioned upthread: ground beef, bread crumbs, eggs, worchestshire sauce, chopped onions, and spices, with ketchup and possibly some bacon on top. I do like Boston Market's meatloaf, and their tomato sauce to go with it is very good (a bit thinner than ketchup, but with chopped veggies).
